As Ive stated before in previous introductions I was in film school in the early 1990s. Therefore my friends and I had enjoyed Slacker many times on video and we all hit the theatre when Dazed and Confused came out. So Richard Linklater has had a very strong but also very subtle influence on me. I think it was after seeing those films that I first realized that it was possible to write a movie the way people actually talked and also for them to smoke out of a bong.
Waking Life and Tape are to of my all time favourite movies.. I lurve richard linklaters work!! he is a genius!
btw. richard if you happen to read this i was wondering if i can ask you a question about your movie 'tape'??.. was the female character raped or not?.. it just seems that all males i have asked say she wasn't, and females say she was.. anyway if you could tell me the answer so i can win.. or lose.. the bet i have with my friend that woud be so excellent!.. my email is siarasuicide@yahoo.com... THANKS...
