Filmosophy (Vol 1)

American Beauty:

"Remember those posters that said: 'Today is the first day of the rest of your life.'? Well, that's true with every day except one... the day you die."

"My daughter Jane. Only Child. Janie's a pretty typical teenager: angry, insecure, confused. I wish I could tell her that's all going to pass, but I don't want to lie to her."


Garden State:

"You know that point in your life when you realize the house you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of a sudden, even though you have some place where you put your shit, that idea of home is gone. ... You'll see one day when you move out. Just sorta happens one day and it's gone. You feel like you can never get it back. It's like you feel homesick for a place that doesn't even exist. Maybe it's like this rite of passage, you know? You won't ever have that feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself. You know, for your kids. For the family you start. It's like a cycle or something. ... I don't know. But I miss the idea of it, you know? Maybe that's all a family really is. A group of people that miss the same imaginary place."

Sweet November:

"She told me if she couldn't live a normal life... she was determined to live an abnormal one the best way she could."


The Story Of Us:

"Since you'll never really find the answers to the big questions, there's a comfort in knowing the answers to the little ones."

"Love is just lust... in disguise."


Strange Days:

"One man's mundane and desperate existance is another man's Technicolor."
