when i want a cig and i‘m tipsy ill walk up to the smoking area and if there’s someone who looks friendly and cool i’ll say ‘you know how we’ve known each other our whole lives? you know how we’re long lost friends? please can i have a cig?’ and they’re so baffled by it that it a) mostly always works and b) makes them want to keep talking to you because of your strange and bold behaviour
not good for your health but good for your soul. meeting up outside after my shift and this one guy wordlessly offering me his lit cigarette because he knows. we are connecting and it’s the ‘casual intimacy of sharing something that touches your lips’ or what have you
This is an old czech film from the new wave and it’s a very visually beautiful and has a different take on a creepy gothic story. Also some of the shots are very reminiscent of Kubrick! You can’t stream it but I’ll share the link to a DVD.
