"look at it...who can say it's not beautiful?"

hearing the original version of 'unchained melody' today reminds me of some dialogue from 'true stories' in which the lead character lewis 'the bear', who spends the whole film trying to find someone to fall in love with, is asked to leave a date after singing his songs to the woman and being told they are too sad..

"i never really thought about it, maybe i am kinda sad. i like sad songs...they make me wanna lie on the floor....'lewis the bear'...on the floor....

....'lewis the bear'...out the door...."



sad stuff, worth digging out if you can.

anyway, to lighten the mood, last night i saw gordon ramsay grab a fat, crying chef by the tits and say "c'mon now big boy"

and today in neighbours a young boy told his newly discovered father who'd forgotten his birthday that it was ok to make mistakes at first, and used the example of his dog shitting indoors at first but eventually learning this was unacceptable to console his father.
