Review of The Man Who Wasn't There (2001) by Chris B — 27 Dec 2012
He is a man.
He is a barber.
He has a.
Wife.
They know each other as well now as they did when they married.
Hobbies?
He appreciates beethoven.
He appreciates abundas' daughter.
Guilt? anger?
Clean hands after icing gandolfini.
***.
"Cutting the hair and chewing the fat. Me, I don't talk much, I just cut the hair.".
Church Bingo.
"Strictly haedashery".
Doesn't mind cutting the pansies hair.
"nose against the exit afraid of turning the knob, what if I could get the money?" (then shaves her, she says "i love you" w/o even looking).
"this hair, it just keeps on coming, it keeps growing, it's part of us and then we cut it and we throw it away".
Married 2 weeks after they met. "Don't you wanna get to know me more? Why, does it get better? We knew each other as well then as now; anyway, well enough.".
Super calm after murder means clean conscience, but does he also expect to get arrested?
Lloyd garroway: Probity.
"Freddy Riedenschneider. Riedenschneider. No question about it.".
¿Lighter at the bank?
"Everything's gonna be honky- and the flatjacks, honey.".
"Sometimes knowledge is a curse" (Ignorance is bliss).
Big Dave never touched Ann again post-Oregon UFO/Alien encounter.
"It titillates, it's open ended!".
Uncertainty principle. ("Sometimes the more you look, the less you know.").
"Science, perception, reality, doubt, reasonable doubt.".
Pregnant from Big Dave meaning? Reason for Frances' suicide. Alien baby?
"You're an enthusiast".
"Heaven's to Betsy, Birdy!!!" (His last words?).
Tears the brochure then hands it to him, he could've had the last word by not picking it up from her and just leaving her lawn.
WHAT KIND OF MAN ARE YOU? (Big Dave, Freddie).
Pulling away from the maze, doesn't regret a thing, he used to regret being a barber, shaved leg @ chair.
"Maybe there I can tell her all those things they don't have words for here.".
