“Poor Eli, my boy!
I thought I explained.
That land has been had and already been drained.
If you have a milkshake, and I have one too,
and I have a straw, d’you know what I do?
There it is, that’s a straw.
Do you see? Watch it, son.
As it reaches its way ‘cross the room it’s begun
to drink from your milkshake right out of your cup.
Yes, I drink your milkshake!
I drink it right up!”

This might be my favorite poem review yet.

Out of curiosity, what kept the movie from getting five stars?

I still haven’t forgiven PTA for Magnolia, I suppose.

That was really really good Johnny, and I have one thing to say and that is: stop making me feel stupid!

You should give it 5 starts anyway wink or at least 4.5
i really enjoyed the movie and i thought it was well worth the money i paid for the ticket and ridiculously overpriced popcorn

i like the emotion in this movie especially… i went in expecting a western style action but got a lot more out of it than i thought i would

It was the nice freeze frame that grabbed me, but it was your poem that really touched me… wait, that came out wrong…
