They should show this to every graduating high school male, so they can understand what's really important in life. Movie shows you all the stages that a male goes through in his lifetime and what is the best path to choose. Now we're in the generation of red pill and this movie shows you all the things to watch out for and how to steer yourself through them. I think Rick made the right decision you can love the girl and still have the life you love she either accepts it or not. Women are like buses there's another one coming in 10 minutes. The movie covers everything from masturbation to dating a lot of women to divorce to love it's everything they left out of the Boy Scout Handbook. God what I'd give to have that car 427 Corvette Stingray convertible.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08117428636087849968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-29800472678507448042022-03-13T21:37:33.741-05:002022-03-13T21:37:33.741-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Mark Silvermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04986447741281065323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-74238047849402039652018-08-30T19:32:50.033-05:002018-08-30T19:32:50.033-05:00Shucks I haven't seen that to compare.

But I see how people from opposite sides of any spectrum can be almost fundamentally the same, with the same hopes, fears, family problems, etc. And some things just don't change, like Sam Elliot's mustache.

Two completely different guys with wildly different world views, but yet both somehow quintessentially Sam Elliott.

It also makes me realize I've seen guys breakdown in the shower in movies, but not really ever in life. Not sure life is so simple. Also, I grew up around beach culture and when I was little I thought guys like this were the coolest because they seemed so laid back, like they had 100% confidence and were so above having insecurities or issues. None of that turned out to be true. And thankfully I think these days things have changed and it's more cool to be perceived as being involved in things like caring about stuff, environmental activism, saving beaches, native culture, etc. I think that kind of old machoness, even in Hawaii where no one ever talks about or acknowledges gender politics, is naturally starting to break down. Every time I go back swimsuit boutiques are filled with more and more options for women to wear besides those stupid, uncomfortable bikinis that are constant accidents waiting to happen and require so much thinking-about-how you're gonna look in them. Finally! Sorry for the tangents. :)Meredith https://www.blogger.com/profile/11361935408436355904noreply@blogger.com
