With a simple change of inflection, he can make the word "voodoo" the focal point of a love song. 8. He doesn't try to make " Scarborough ...

Whoa there, JM! I wasn't suggesting anything of the sort, but the underlying intent really is open for interpretation, given the circumstances. On the surface, it appears to be a simple "hang out in my room again" kind of thing. But the reality is a bit more complex. It's the last night they'll have...

I have to admit that I wasn't the biggest fan of My Bloody Valentine when they were active, probably because I didn't have my ears opened to them properly. It's been great to rediscover the Loveless album 13 years after the fact, and finally "get it".

I liked this line particularly: After a drunken patron gets rowdy, a bartender pulls out what appears to be a machine gun and fires at him and others (we see flashes of light from its barrel, but it must be a fake or toy as no bullets come out) Well, yeah, this film would have been _quite_ a differe...

I agree. I don't mind criticism of the film, as long as it's not just trolling. In that light, I have a link to a "parental guide" to the film. And they think that *we're* nit-picky ! :roll: http://www.screenit.com/movies/2003/los ... ation.html

I'm not sure what you mean by the nods. Will I have to pull out my DVD and watch this scene (not that I don't mind watching LIT)? You know it ! Any excuse to watch LiT is a good excuse, though. While they are riding the elevator up, Bob tilts his head ever so slightly toward the door in a "come wit...

Good point. But after finally working his way out of the doghouse over the Jazz Singer Incident, it seemed really bad judgement to try to get her to come to his room, even if it _was_ the last night they'd have together. Guess you can't blame the guy for trying, though.

The Nod

Here's one to chew on: After the fire alarm, when Charlotte and Bob are in the elevator returning to their rooms, did anyone else catch "the nod" ? Not once, but *twice*. After what had happened between them that day, what the heck did he think he was doing ?
