- Alternate versionsIn a cut scene right before reaching Bambi's Bar, Kid tells Al that he wanted to join the Air Force after high school because they wanted him to be a test pilot. Al then sees a man walking backwards across the street. He asks Kid what he sees, and Kid confirms it. Kid pulls alongside the man at a stop sign, and asks why he's walking backwards. The man replies because he feels like it. Kid then tells him that if he does it in front of his car, he'll run over him. Kid screeches away from the stop sign and almost hits the man.
Featured review
Subtle = Powerful
Everything in this film is about subtlety... I think that's why it has such a lasting effect.
It's definitely one of those "mischievous" films... sort of an escape from reality that makes you wonder why you and others take themselves so seriously. It's something that will most likely linger with you for a while. This film made me re-evaluate the seriousness of my life. I think this is among the only films that actually has changed my life somewhat.
