Nickole and what its like to love someone who could, or would never love you.

last night.
watching mad men season 4 until about 1am
turning on my computer to discover that I had some serious computer error.

In a world-

This all the while I’m in the emergency room.
In between panic attacks, and even perhaps now, I think that if I were blind I would never know that you were having sex. I would only feel the phone vibrate and I would be...

Zabriskie Point (Antonioni 1970)
Tetro (Coppola 2009)
Brick (Johnson 2005)
Fish Tank (Arnold 2009)
The American (Corbijn 2010)
