It's a pretty amazing film. Why are you computering while you're watching it, though? Don't disrespect quality cinema! What has quality cinema ever done to you?

Lucky for you, then, that this film has barely seen the light of day.

(It's a really good film.)

Wow yeah, Kasdan, the last word in obscurity.  Compared to Happiness or Short Cuts, Grand Canyon is a cup full of chamomile tea though.

Oops, turns out All Movie Guide doesn't have proper, unique U.R.L.s like All Music Guide does. How odd. This is the film I meant. (Known in English as Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles.)

This movie really got to me. I think that if I ever lost total control of my body, I would want to be put out of my misery. Though it is quite admirable that he actually wrote a book in his state.
