one of the best movie conversations ever
I love this exchange. I wouldnt change a word of it, nor how it was filmed, or performed by the actors. Nearly perfect filmmaking, IMHO.
I wonder who will recognize it first.
Holden: Can I ask you a question?
Alyssa: Don't even tell me you want to do it again.
H: Why me?...you know...why now?
A: Well because you were giving me that look, and I got all wet...
H: You know what I mean.
A: Why not you?
H: Well, I'm a guy. I mean, you're attracted to girls.
A: I see you've been taking notes. Historically yes, that's true.
H: Then why this?
A: Well, I've given that a lot of thought, you know? I mean, now that I'm being ostracized by my friends, I've had plenty of time to think about it. And what I've come up with is really simple: I came to this on my own terms. You know, I didn't just heed what I was taught: "men and women should be together, it's the natural way," that kind of thing. I'm not with you because of what family, society, life tried to instill in me from day one. The way the world is...how seldom it is that you meet that one person who...just gets you...it's so rare. My parents didn't really have it, there're no examples set for me in the world of male-female relationships. And to cut oneself off from finding that person...to immediately halve your options by eliminating the possibility of finding that one person within your own gender...that just seemed stupid to me. So I didn't. But then you came along. You, the one least likely...I mean you were a guy.
H: Still am.
A: And while I was falling for you, I put ceiling on that, because you were a guy, until I remembered why I opened the door to women in the first place: to not limit the likelihood of finding that one person that could complement me so completely. So, here we are. I was thorough when I looked for you. And I feel justified lying in your arms. Cause I got here on my own terms, and I have no question there wasnt someplace I didn’t look. And for me, that makes all the difference.
H: Well, can I at least tell people that all you needed was some serious "deep dicking"?
