## Notes

What a wild, multilayered onion of a movie! It was great fun to watch it unfold accompanied by the explosive live accompaniment of Antonio Sanchez... Made the _crazy_ sequences pop out all that much more. On the other hand, the live drums also made it a little hard to follow the dialog, though a fair fraction of that problem might also be attributed to growing old and deaf. From what I understand, losing the ability to follow speech is one of the first signs of age-related hearing loss. Dang nabbit! Hey you kids, get off my lawn! Uh, now where was I headed? Oh yeah, good flick! Would have been nice to hang out and discuss it over a drink, but our group lacked consensus, so off to BART we went. And the reward for leaving early? Stuck in a CHP sobriety checkpoint in West Oakland. Crap! What a waste of time.
