Movie Quotes: What you know you can't explain but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.

What is real? How do you define real? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then real is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.

Morpheus: The matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes.

Being John Malkovich

Being John Malkovich: Reflections

JOHN MALKOVICH Part 1: Being John Malkovich was an American dramedy fantasy which opened in October 1999 just as I was retiring after a 50 year student and employment life, a career of 32 years as a teacher, and another 18 as a student. In October 1999 I was settling into a little town by the sea, and beginning the recreation of myself as a writer and author, poet and publisher, online blogger and journalist, editor and researcher, reader and scholar. I did not see the film, however, until sometime in the first decade after my retirement from FT, PT and casual-paid jobs. I have now enjoyed a full retirement from 2006 to 2015. Critic Roger Ebert, whose film review column has appeared in the Chicago Sun-Times for more than 40 …

Hi Ron. You can most certainly copy and paste onto FilmCrave. But the key is, not to copy directly from Word, because Word uses a lot of formatting you can't see. If you first copy your text from Word into Notepad, then copy from Notepad to FilmCrave, that will get rid of the hidden formatting and post just fine on our site.
