The Prestidigitator

Coz we’re all masochists at heart? )

Rads has it right. But then what could you possibly want that bad that you can’t have? The way I see it, you can make the wanting stop if you choose to. Or you could set about getting it, if you choose.

Come now, stop being a drama queen, Pres

Because otherwise, I cant get no satisfaction.

P.S. I see that you have recently watched Cinema Paradiso. Is it Nuovo Cinema Paradiso?
Man, that montage of kissing scenes in the end made me cry like a baby. Remember that scene when Toto is projecting films near the waterfront, and after a long wait, Elena comes and kisses him in the rain? And that scene when Alfredo projects the film outside the theatre onto a wall in the square. Man, so many unforgettable scenes. I love this film so much.

whats the point of wanting something you can easily have – where’s the challenge, the thrill?

@rads Masochism is too strong a word. I was thinking more on the lines of ‘childishness’.

@Charl I’m no drama queen; plus if it really was that easy, I would have gone out of my way and gotten it. It isn’t.

@Baphomet ah…nice reference.

You know after you mentioned how awesome the kiss in My Blueberry Nights was..I really did notice the kiss in the rain from Cinema Paradiso. Very…epic.

Great great film too.

@sukhi Um yes…being challenging and being impossible are altogether different.
