NOTES |
One man
follows another man to a bridge. The man gets |
|
ready to
jump off bridge. The other asks for his watch but the |
|
man won't
give it to me. Then the other one offers him some |
|
pills which
will make suicide less painful. They go to his |
|
house and
the man is given pills but they turn out to be vitamin tablets,
though by this time he has gone to hospital. |
|
It turns out
the watch fancier is going to die in 3-4 weeks and |
|
he wants to
live out his fantasies. Both men buy some acid |
|
from a guy
in a wheelchair. And off they go in the man's car. |
|
They're
having a whale of a time but they've left us behind on |
|
The dying
man goes to visit his parents but this is the first |
|
time in 6
years and his father won't let him. Later they go |
|
back and
have a family barbecue but it's all nostalgia. |
|
They shop
for an urn, they rob a bank. This is a road movie in |
|
day trips
where you keep coming back to where you started |
|
Anyway it
comes to dying time and he asks his friend to help |
|
the grim
reaper move a bit faster. And finally we see his |
|
ashes
scattered from a cardboard box. |
