Notable Quotes

❝ I like that bouncing, I am puzzled by her behavior as I watch her and scratch my beard.
❝ Ouch. Ouch. Well, having said that, despite all the positive aspects one can find, this film has the huge flaw of being an internal journey as useful as a conversation that goes in one ear and out the other.
