I'll have what she's having

I am convinced that memory has a gravitational force. It is constantly attracting us. Those who have a memory are able to live in the fragile present moment. Those who have none don’t live anywhere.

Diane Keaton by Norman Seef

“Diane Keaton will forever be the true Woody Allen muse. She changed his way of writing. She’s not only a great actress but she inspired Woody Allen to be better at his filmmaking.”

After that it got pretty late. And we both hadda go, but it was great seeing Annie again, right? I realized what a terrific person she was and-and how much fun it was just knowing her and I-I thought of that old joke, you know, this- this-this guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, “Doc, uh, my brother’s crazy. He thinks he’s a chicken.” And, uh, the doctor says, “Well, why don’t you turn him in?” And the guy says, “I would, but I need the eggs.” Well, I guess that’s pretty much how how I feet about relationships. You know, they’re totally irrational and crazy and absurd and … but, uh, I guess we keep goin’ through it because, uh, most of us need the eggs.

In the scene where Adam refuses to accept Cal’s money, the script called for Cal to turn away in anger from his father. It was James Dean’s instinct to embrace him instead. This came as a surprise to Raymond Massey, who could think of nothing to do but say, “Cal! Cal!” in response.
