Exactly, it's not like it's bad that he ended up well-read and cultured but the 'life wasted' regrets in other areas make it a bitter consolation. Kind of a cautionary tale about balancing your inner/outer life. I forgot to mention that the art discussion happens at the dinner scene, hinting at the theme of media consumption - as well as the scene of the janitor eating lunch while watching the diner drama, and the connection between commercial jingles and sugar addiction --- You bow to no one, azuarc <cite>Seginustemple posted [p:957149668] in Movie Club...
