I got pulled over by the police today for making a U-Turn. I totally objected to the matter for the simple reason that there was no presence of an identificatory sign. I cried, and complained. I was "excused" in the end, happily ever after... It was a degree less embarrassing then when I got stopped by a cop-on-a-horse who wanted to fine me for J-walking!!
Above is one of my favorite scenes from the conveniently-named U-TURN movie with Sean Penn, Claire Danes and Joaquin Phoenix... It came from Stray Dogs by the master John Ridley and Oliver Stone had the heart to direct it. He brilliantly accomplished the task of bringing to life this little underrated gem of a film where humor is shielded by subtlety and taunting sardonicism. Needless to say I love it. Have you seen it?
