    "It would have been cool if he just had did the music thing, and, I don't know, just spoke through the hat, I guess, 'cause the hat was loud."

    I don’t know how else to put this. Angela Bassett did the thing.

    “I remember thinking ‘what a pretty girl.’” 

    I CANNOT stop crying. What a poignant, beautiful, and tragic film. The next time I watch it, I’ll stop it right where Martha looks out the window at Karen with a sleepy sort of half-smile. Martha was watching the love of her life walking their path and wearing her jacket. In my mind, Martha quickly threw on some shoes and rushed after Karen.

    This movie absolutely GUTS me. They deserve a happy ending goddamnit. You can’t tell me it ended that way. Martha went on the walk with Karen and then they went away to an accepting little coastal town and raised a bunch of babies together.
