- Quotes
Blue Lewis: [reading a story] Her huge melons glistened in the moonlight, she smiled, taunting him- then slowly, ever so slowly she began to undo... underher...
Stinky: Undulate?
Blue Lewis: Undulate...
Stinky: Undulate what? Her hips?
Blue Lewis: Yes, yes, her hips.
Stinky: Go ahead! Go ahead!
Blue Lewis: As her breasts moved towards him bubbling in the night air, he couldn't help but notice how she had grown from that small child from whom he had once babysat.
[shakes his head]
Blue Lewis: He reached out...
Stinky: Go ahead! Go ahead!
Blue Lewis: [swallowing] ... and gently touched her large brown, ore... OH!... A-U-R-E-O-L-E-S.
Stinky: Aureoles? Oh, you're killin' the story! Her large brown aureoles?
Blue Lewis: Uh what? He touched her cookies?

which means "San Francisco Story." ("To Kill a Mockingbird" is known
in Japan as "Alabama Monogatari".) "Inside Moves" is another little
movie that when I saw it in a cheap theater in Japan, I thought,
"Great. I am going to enjoy seeing this many times"; only to find
myself waiting for decades for it to resurface. It's a film which
examines the essence of humanity: heart, mind, and body. It's about
finding yourself through helping others; something that in the Thai
language is called, "Nam Jai" which means "water from the heart."
Sometimes we find it and sometimes we lose it. My favorite line is
John Savage's, "You don't have to come around anymore. We don't need
your kind of cripple" to indicate the sorry lot of those who have lost
the joy of giving and the value of camaraderie. But "Inside Moves"
gives it back again.
