I watched as Humphrey Bogartโs character used beans as a metaphor for the relative unimportance in the wider world of his relationship with Ingrid Bergmanโs character, and chose logic and decency ahead of his selfish emotional desires. The quandary and resulting decision made for an engrossing film. But this was not what people cried about. They were in love and could not be together. I repeated this statement to myself, trying to force an emotional reaction. I couldnโt. I didnโt care. I had enough problems of my own.
Graeme SimsionThere are so many weird people that nobody takes any notice. We all just fit right in.
