Quote by John Cusack
My dad had a commercial film company, so he had a videotape player

My dad had a commercial film company, so he had a videotape player before anyone. So he got Mel Brooks movies or Citizen Kane or some classic old movies. And every summer the revival house in Evanston would show the great films from the 50s and 60s and 70s. – John Cusack

Its something we, guys, have all done. Made tapes for girls, trying to impress them, to meet them on a shared plane of aesthetics. Read them someone elses poetry because they do poetry better than you could do it, because youre too awkward to do it. – John Cusack
