Let us open a bottle of vodka
25 November 2015
Pimpin's father comes home after work to find Pimpin watching a French film.

Pimpins father: Pimpin, what are you watching?

Pimpin: Its this random pirated film I picked up from my DVD collection. Its a French film. Its a pirated Criterion DVD.

Pimpins father: Do you think I should watch it?

Pimpin: No. Its damn slow. The dialogs are full of existential crap.

Pimpins father: Oh. Who is acting in it?

Pimpin: Jean Gabin.

Pimpins father: Oh that pasty faced fat guy. Whats so great about him?

Pimpin: Beats me. But he was great in Touchez Paz Au Grisbi.

Pimpins father: So is it another gangster movie?

Pimpin: No exactly. The movie starts off really well. With a drifter/deserting soldier making an appearance in a small town.

Pimpins father: Sounds like the plot of one of those crime fiction novels that you read.

Pimpin: No. It does have some cheesy gangsters. But it is not a crime film by any stretch of the imagination.

Pimpins father: OK.

Pimpin: It does have some good dialogs. The ending is a lot like Carlito's Way.

Pimpins father: That's one of my favorite films.

Pimpin: Yeah.

Pimpins father: Do you have any alcohol stocked?

Pimpin: Yes, some Shark Tooth vodka.

Pimpins father: Then let's open the bottle.

Pimpin: OK sure.

Pimpins father: You would prefer to drink a bottle of vodka over this film?

Pimpin: Yes, definitely.

Pimpins father: It does not even have a good heroine?

Pimpin: Nope. The heroine was crap. I liked the story. Something good could have been made out of it. But the film was really boring. And the supporting cast was awful.

Pimpins father: I see. Lets open the vodka bottle then.

Pimpin: Sure.
