    • Quotes

      [Trying to start Layla's car]

      Billy Brown: Is this a shifter car? I cannot drive a shifter car, alright, so we got a little situation here. I can't drive these kinda cars! What the fuck is goin' on! You think that's funny? Would you like to know, smartass? Would you like to know why I can't drive this kinda car? I'll tell you why, I'm used to *luxury* cars. Have you ever heard of a luxury car? You know what luxury means? Ever heard of Cadillac, Cadillac Eldorado? That's what I drive. I drive cars that *shift* themselves.

    Vinnie

    Vinnie Gallo has quality to him. I don't know what is is. He's a

    bitter person and extremely conceded but you can sense a

    tenderness.

    BUFFALO 66 is always worth the viewing. Because, even if you

    despise the film, you can't help but feel the effects: the snow, the

    whites, the washed out collors.

    The opening is also magnificent. What a lonely environment.

    Makes me want to curl up and eat a donut.
