We are like two lonely socks

Elope away from that "home" in the back of his little crappy truck; he pushes her with a wheelbarrow and she shakes her feet like a girl; on his shoes we dance the wedding night and we are like two Lonely socks; knocking on the glass through the window saying I can see you and I can see you too. Even though she was lame and hunchbacked, and he was short-tempered, the love of two people over forty was still moving to tears.
I don't like most people.
Most people don't like you.... I like you.







This film, shot at NovaScotia, reminds me of my trip across the three Atlantic Canadian provinces on Thanksgiving the year before. I miss it so much!

    ▤ "I don't want you to leave me. (Why would I do that?) 'Cause you can do much better than me. (No. I couldn't. Got everything I want with you. Everything.)"" The whole of life already framed right there.”【♫Lisa Hannigan - Little Bird♫】

    Everett Lewis: Maybe. Maybe he could, but he didn't - Maud did. Brushes, please.

    [slaps the coins on the counter]

    Everett Lewis: You're an idiot.

  • Maud Lewis: [sitting in front of Sandra's window and looking out] A window. I love a window. A bird, whizzin' by. Bumblebee.

    [laughs]

    Maud Lewis: It's always different. The whole of life. The whole of life already framed. Right there.
