Kontroll says in the beginning that it's totally not about the Budapest subway (and in a way, maybe even the most important way, it's not). But it does have a very Hungarian feel to it. Which is to say, a bit depressing, wonderfully humorous, and a little dark. Jon was really impressed by it.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Parc Guell! Highly recommend getting a picnic lunch at the market and wandering around Parc Guell. It's gorgeous and has great views.
Yes! Seriously, allow some good time for sightseeing.

They weren't even going to pretend they could act, were they?
Charm and charisma can really cover up serious acting deficiences. That, and a decent script, which A Hard Day's Night had and Help! didn't.

Our wings are not tired.
Seconding the Parc Guell. Also, the hop on and hop off bus system is pretty cool in Barcelona. We did that for a couple of days, trying the four (or was it three?) different lines. Really helped me get a feel for the place.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
They weren't even going to pretend they could act, were they?Dude, they were the Beatles. They just put their name on it, and it sold. Hard Days Night was a much better flick. Although I'd be hard pressed to say which had the better tunes.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
They were stoned through much of the filming of Help!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
So should I take a nap while listening to the rain?

Yes, that's one of my favorite things about New Orleans.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
HOLY SHIT NORA YOU LIVE IN NEW ORLEANS!
Sorry. Sometimes it just hits me.
I'll just be sitting here at my little gray desk, puce with envy.
