Having never seen anything supernatural (that I’ve realized was supernatural) I’ve never had this experience, but I can imagine it’d be very frustrating to have nobody believe you.

I have always had a love-hate relationship with Christmas. Exacerbated by the fact that if you tell anyone you don’t celebrate it because you’re not Christian, you get no end of crap about it.
These days I don’t put much energy into thinking about it, and I do enjoy some of the festivities. And since I don’t work a 9-5 job with people, I don’t get many of those kinds of interactions about it.
Bruno needs to be standing on some windswept rocks in the rain wearing a black shawl when she says that.
Also, I like that O’Donnal is willing to look at the facts and act on them.
Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Poor girl.
My, there’s a lot of complexities to death.
I used to think that “having something to say” meant “knowing some profound truth, and since there is perhaps really no such thing, then there could never be anything to say.” Now I know it can simply mean “something interesting to say.”
it’s all in the word “something” which is open to all kinds of interpretation, depending on how hamstringing you want to be to yourself. ;-)
Towns/villages of this size always fascinated me. Communities where everything is known by all, both good and bad. Bad: you can’t get away with anything. Good: nobody else can either.
Ah Stanley, playing that trick on more than just Bruno. It shows dedication, if nothing else.
Before I saw “Lion in Winter,” (an AMAZING movie with Peter O’Toole, Katharine Hepburn, Anthony Hopkins, and Timothy Dalton, among others) I witnessed two slightly drunk men, a history professor and an english professor, laughing uncontrollably as they tossed quotes from the movie of each other. I saw it as soon after as I was able, and still remember the mirth in their voices and tried to capture if here.
