Uhm, I'd like it *now*, please.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

Wow, first Bergman, now Michelangelo Antonioni is dead.
I loved Blow-up, but I have to admit that L'Avventura left me cold.

Quick! Someone go check on... uhm, which other venerable European director is still alive? Eric Rohmer? Werner Herzog?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Werner Herzog cannot be killed by ordinary means. He will outlive us all.

I'd be very afraid if I was Jean-Luc Godard.

I was going to say.
It was an insignificant bullet.
And a week or so later he pulls Joaquim Phoneix out of a car crash.

I remember one time Herzog took his family to Sea World... they were watching Shamu the whale when Herzog got splashed! So Herzog yells, 'I'm Werner Herzog and no one gets me wet!' So he climbs into the tank, grabs Shamu and throws the whale into the audience, splashes him and yells, 'How do you like it?!' And then damn if Herzog didn't step in there and finish the show!"...
That guy could kick Chuck Norris' and Jack Bauer's collective asses in a three way match. Not by pure skill, but by the fact he'd shrug off all of their attacks. Chuck Norris would roundhouse him and he'd say "it was an insignificant kick" Jack would shoot him "insignificant bullet from an insignificant man."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
He's like Rasputin.

I've heard about the Joachim Phoenix story but this is the first time I heard about the bullet! And the thing with the whale! It's almost too good to be true.
