Meet Joe Black



Anthony Hopkins & Claire Forlani in Meet Joe Black:=
"AH: ... I want you to get swept away out there. I want you to levitate. I want you to sing with rapture and dance like a dervish.
CF: Oh, that's all?
AH: Yeah, be deliriously happy or at least leave yourself open to be.
CF: OK. Be deliriously happy. I shall do my utmost.
AH: I know it's a cornball thing, but love is passion, obsession, someone you can't live without. Fall head over heels. Find someone you can love like crazy & who'll love you the same way back. How do you find him? Well, you forget your head and you listen to your heart. 'Cos the truth is, there's no sense living your life without this. To make the journey and not fall deeply in love...you haven't lived a life at all. But you have to try, 'cos if you haven't tried, you haven't lived."

TS - Me too, and that very scene in the helicopter even more often. What a coincidence, or is it irony?

THe dialogue was made all the more poignant after having seen the a dervish in action in Istanbul. YB
