  • "If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, jobs, and maybe your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery, isolation. Isolation is the gift."

    Fucking brilliant.

  • I'm french, I love, I do Love this movie, it is one of my favorites of all.

  • yeah-- this is a gorgeous piece of writing, for sure.

    if you like matt dillon "doing" writers, check out his track from the jack kerouac tribute CD-- he reads a piece from Mexico City Blues with 3 mexican jazz musicians, and it's pretty awesome.

  • Simply sublime. So nice to find fellow admirers of this wonderful movie moment here too...

  • Make sure to check out the poem "Born into this". That's poetry.

  • Sorry, got the name of the poem wrong. "Born into this" is the name of the actual documentary. "Dinosauria, we" is the name of the poem. Doesn't matter which name you choose to search for. It's found with both names on youtoube.

  • i logged on to you tube wondering, whether anyone would have been as moved as I was and put this final scene up.

    Thank you. My favorite poem from my favorite poet.

  • Agreed. The piano music and the ending poem with the stripper is true poetry, true art. Keep thinking about this scene in good and bad times. Truly amazing.

  • I love this film.

  • I really love this scene!

  • Does anyone know who performed that Piano tune, and where I can get that? I think it isn't on the Soundtrack.

  • I'm not sure, but it sounds like an Astor Piazolla tango.

  • Found it!

  • Slow day is such a bautiful song, it's unbelieveble that Kristin Asbjornsen is so relativ unknown.

  • Does anyone know the origin of the melody played on the piano?

    The movie itself is really moving. Hank indeed goes "all the way". Thanks for uploading.

  • Kristin Asbjornsen - Slow Day

  • you're welcome!

    I'm glad there are peoples enjoying this sequence. this is a fantastic movie.

    regards.
