Wisdom teeth is a nonsense.
What to me pleasure of what at me in 25-30 years has grown a teeth without which I already easily manage for a long time?
Where they were, when I in a youth teeth opened bottles with beer because it was abruptly? When I clicked a teeth nuts?
And then, why from name “Wisdom teeth” – I that, somehow in another way to chew has learnt? Not how earlier when I was the young fool? Whether business if to years to 30 grew, for example, wisdom fingers! Better, of course, on each hand on the additional index. But on the second big – too it is normal. And then it would be wisdom fingers – because now I precisely know, for what I should seize both hands, to hold strong-strong and never to release. Or from what to wave away – yes, now I know, from what I should wave away very much, sometimes so there is no pair of superfluous fingers on hands that from it to wave away.
Or here, a wisdom eye. It is necessary certainly, to change the passport by 30 years because you on a forehead had one more eye… Well also I represent, as it will be scratched. When it begins to be cut through – hard, yes. But – what pleasure to look in three eyes at that, on what you could not see enough in both in any way… And points cool can be carried – represent, what turn the fashion industry can make!
I ask me to excuse, it is simple a teeth strongly are ill

Wonderful post, thank you. I fell deeply in love with “Yi Yi” when I saw it in theatres back in 2000, and when my cinematheque screened a pristine print last fall – I saw it again. And it was even better. Such a great film on all levels.

It's been a little while since I've seen the film (I think it might be my #1 for the decade unless something released in '09 will top it) but as I recall, someone hums the Shostakovich piece that plays in the opening of Eyes Wide Shut.

And while we're on the subject of Edward Yang, can you get your readers to bombard the Criterion Collection with requests to obtain the rights to all of his other films, in particular A Brighter Summer Day?
