When you're a houseguest and you leave, it's nice to straighten something up or send your hosts a useful gift. And when you leave the planet, it's nice to have made a positive contribution.

Life mixes tones all the time.
I think cynicism lasts. Sentimentality ages, dates quickly.
The most heinous shift in American films is that they reinforce good things like 'couples' and 'relationships.'
