Hey, I'm in the mood to see a film tonight.
What kind are you thinking of?
You know the usual stuff I like, something with a dark sense of humor.
Black comedies?
Yeah, or film noir. You know how I really like Kiss Me Deadly.
Yes.
Anything like that playing around?
Let me check.
Even in one of the revival moviehouses around here.
Mullholland Drive is playing downtown.
Hmmm . . . I've seen that a few times.
Maybe something older?
Yes, not as much of a neo-noir. I like seeing something with some real history to it.
Nothing too modern?
No, thanks.
Black and white with voiceovers.
Yeah, something nostalgic, please.
Well, Kiss Me Deadly is playing tonight.
I'd like to see that. The gang would, too.
Can I come?
