Dirty Dancing with my dad was...fairly uncomfortable.
Let's never remove the above sentence from context....
Mal: Well said. Wasn't that well said, Zoe? Zoe: Had a kind poetry to it, sir.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Which is a pity, given your name.

Oops...I meant "Going to Dirty Dancing with my dad was mildly comfortable." For though I have Daddy Issues in profusion, they aren't of The Kiss variety. Honest.

I just watched The 400 Blows. SO INCREDIBLY BORING. Clearly I am not sophisticated enough to appreciate the French New Wave. I want that 100 minutes of my life back.

Our wings are not tired.
P-C, that's exactly how I felt about every Michelangelo Antonioni film I ever saw (which is not to say I am mixing him up with Truffaut).

Didn't he do Blow-Up ? Because that actually sounds interesting, and I've wanted to see it. Maybe I'll just see The Conversation instead, which is like the audio version. Or, wait, didn't Brian DePalma remake it? That could work.
The 400 Blows didn't even have 400 goddamn blows. I counted 3.

The Conversation is one of my favorite films of all time. Blow-Up has the same emphasis on style and form that the other Michelangelo Antonioni films have, and it just bores me to tears. Too long and drawn out with not much happening. Very interesting premise, though.
I saw it in a double-feature (in 1988)with L'avventura at the New Beverly theatre in Los Angeles. At least I got to eat popcorn with real butter and frozen Snickers.

Oh, the De Palma film is Blow Out, and it's basically the same premise as The Conversation.

Dammit! That does not seem like my kind of movie.
