“Do you ever have nightmares where you’re being chased? I get these all the time. More than flying or teeth falling out or showing up to calculus without the homework done, I dream about running from something monstrous and awful. I can’t stop because I know that’s when they get me. Good Time is like those nightmares. It’s punched in, close, uneasy, on Connie’s face throughout. The music is blaring. The colors are disorienting and the music is racing. It’s a fun house maze, a haunted house, a game of whack-a-mole where they’re gonna beat one of you down with a hammer so don’t let it be you. I always think I’m running from something, but Good Time suggests maybe it’s the opposite, maybe I’m running towards morning.“
“The thing Moonstruck lets you walk away feeling is: who cares. You find your person and then you figure it out.”
—Caity Mans, “We Are Here to Ruin Ourselves”
“There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the infinite passion of life.”
― Federico Fellini
“In the future of Blade Runner 2049, moving on is still impossible. Love, or the dream of being loved, however brief or generic or misremembered, still has the sole power to move us irrevocably.“
-Veronica Fitzpatrick, “The Velveteen Replicant”
