you perfectly captured the essence of ESOSM. I have never witnessed a more honest, candor-ridden portrayl of love in my life than was portrayed in this absolute masterpiece. instead of reinterating and specifying attributes and elements of the film that you already perfectly encapsulated in words, I will merely say that as chatoic and random as life can seem, there are trapdoors and obtuse doorways that will always lead one back into the poignant rememberances and lovely reflections that bad experiences and ill-endings can never erode or dull. I am seeking my Clementine, my complimenting half, my love, even though I fully understand and acknowledge that it could possibly end in the worst imaginable heartache.... that is what the film does. it allows you believe in the redemptive magistry of love (scars, weeping wounds and all) and not hesitate for even a moment to persue it. life is not about the end result, but about the experiences getting there. I am Brian, by the way. I am sorry to be as presumptuous as I was to just post in ( ... )

Hi, I'm inviting you to join blueruins because you seem to share the same intense connection to ESotSM as the members of that community! It's a cynical, devoted group of ESotSM lovers and I think you would love it there. Please join! :)

I absolutely adore your essay here about one of my top five favorite films of all time as well. Hope you don't mind if I add you because your interests list rules. I promise not to be boring and I'm not a psycho (not in the bad creepy way at least). Take care and keep in touch,
