fetal position

Leigha is over and we watched Garedn State and then Requiem For A Dream.

i sat there watching it. and there's this one point where there's these two guys hospitalizing the old lady who's so fucked up on some form on drugs that she took for dieting, and here she is, with this life story about her husband dying and her son who's into drugs and this whole fixation on television, and losing weight to fit in her red dress. she's a fuckin mess, and these guys are hospitalizing her talking about their weekends and stuff. and it's so weird, how three different lives can be in the same room. like, i imagine each person as if they're a huge piece of paper with everything written on them about every single detail about their life. and how they can just be in the same room together, discussing their weekend while this lady's been living this huge ordeal.. it's just.. weird to think about. i dunno..

and then at the end they show all four characters in these awful situations.. Harry in the hospital bed with an amputated arm from shooting infections, Sarah in the hospital after losing her mind over diet pills, Marion on the couch after a nice orgy that left a nice wad of cash in her hands, and Tyrone on a jail bed missing his mother..

and all they seem to find is the little comfort in the fetal position.
isn't that what people do when they're scared?? go in the fetal position?
when your in a mother's womb, you're in the fetal position.. maybe it's comforting in that way.

it's cool to think about..
