Hi Kev - Mike in MN here again. I just wanted to ask if you've ever seen or read the script for a 1997 movie written, produced by, and starring Eric Schaeffer called "FALL". One of my favorite independent films of all time, and one of the most emotionally-demanding movies to watch I've ever seen! All because of the dialogue! Its about a cab driver who picks up a super-model in his cab one day, while her husband is off in Europe. The movie revolves around their little "relationship" that ensues, and the inevitable heartbreak that follows. The dialogue and soundtrack just hypnotized me when I first saw it. I saw a lot of emotional parallels between it and "Chasing Amy," which is why I thought you would personally identify with this film.
Here's a link I found with the text to one of the main monologues in the movie. You can begin to get a feel for what this movie is like...
