The first time I watched that movie, it gave me a headache...and made me very antsy...i kept getting annoyed with the entire movie...repeating certain scenes over and over...
And then I talked about it with a friend of mine who had watched it. He has a quirky sense of humor and he told me he laughed his ass off when he watched it...
i liked the bitch though....
such an odd movie.
You just have to remember that it's telling the story in reverse order. I loved that movie, because it's makes you think about it.

Val Kilmer sucks. Except for in Tombstone and Top Secret.
i'm your daisy sounds alot more manly though sly. It could work for you. When you get up to bat in softball, say that to the pitcher, you'll get a base knock every time.
