[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 428458, member: 8"] I can't quote from your own quote therefore I needed to improvise. [I]JFL: Casting him as a meek little weirdo seems very strange at first, but it kind of contributes to the off-kilter oddness of the whole film[/I] And winning the lottery which made him kinda nouveau rich, but still not good enough to hang out with the "cool kids". Sometimes it gets close to being a romcom but the tone of the film never stays in the same place which makes it all very unpredictable. [I]JFL: the target of his obsession is a liberated young "woman of today", whom he feels threatened by as well as attracted to[/I] Threatened [I]and[/I] attracted, yes it's all coming back to me now but that's because the film gave me so much to process, mentally. It's a good one for rewatches. [I]JFL: His angry rant about not being able to understand Picasso or Catcher in the Rye is brilliant and weirdly moving.[/I] Which, I guess, made it all the more difficult to be his victim. The story's ongoing change in point of view is very naturally done. I *think* I've seen it, but maybe I'm confusing it with another one. Are there two men spying on a woman sunbathing and then later come up with a phony story to be inside her house? [/QUOTE]
