Nothing happens in the world? Are you out of your fucking mind? People are murdered every day. There's genocide, war, corruption. Every fucking day, somewhere in the world, somebody sacrifices his life to save someone else. Every fucking day, someone, somewhere takes a conscious decision to destroy someone else. People find love, people lose it. For Christ's sake, a child watches her mother beaten to death on the steps of a church. Someone goes hungry. Somebody else betrays his best friend for a woman. If you can't find that stuff in life, then you, my friend, don't know crap about life! And why the FUCK are you wasting my two precious hours with your movie? I don't have any use for it! I don't have any bloody use for it!

It's pretty authentic old man speak. Sometimes when my dad goes on a really expletive laden rant, he'll try to emphasis his point by using a comparatively mild word like crap.

I wish screenwriters were taught this more frequently. I'm surrounded by screenwriters who think their career can be based on scripts and stories inspired by their own life so they don't have to research shit, but there's only so far you can do that for.

If it it's a Kaufman that doesn't start with an Andy he's not worth paying attention to
