The Last Kiss

Depressing movie about getting older and more angry, depressing new year as I get older and more angry. It's not even a matter of not being young anymore; from here on out it's just a race to the grave. I hate the thought of dying. Was it Freud who said that no one truly believes in his own death?

'There's an old joke - um... two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of 'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions." Well, that's essentially how I feel about life - full of loneliness, and misery, and suffering, and unhappiness, and it's all over much too quickly.'

Yeah okay, that was Annie Hall, not the Last Kiss. That's because the Last Kiss didn't have anything half as good. It was, however, about a thousand times better than Garden State.
