God Of Paradise

You know, I'd be less worried about my 16 year old daughter dating a successful 40 year old cartoonist than dating a 16 year old loser.

I mean, Jesus, kid, at least date a motherfucker with abortion money and house to have sex at where your mother and I don't have to hear it. Also, if he treats her poorly, boom, that asshole's gonna catch a statch charge.

Please, John K. Date my daughter... Save her from dating smelly dropouts who wanna-be Soundcloud rappers.
Anyone else think that both the narrator and the audience surrogate were lying to one another throughout the movie?

It was so weird, and refreshing. The story being told by an unreliable narrator to an unreliable audience. It's all pointless then isn't it? Really? That said, Joe was far more honest than Seligman. At the end of the day these tales of Joe's guilt and sex life are completely loving pointless, and she admits to that. The framing of her telling her story to Seligman is classic borderline behavior. Having someone's attention, to amuse yourself by draining them emotionally. You can try to project whatever meaning you want onto an empty shells of a human being... But the emptiness they feel inside, is just that, emptiness. Their whole hosed up life is just lashing out trying to find anything to temporarily fills the void in them.

The questions I have, like Skarsgaard had, were with Jerome. The unreliability in Joe's story centers around Jerome. When Shia is replaced by Michael Pas, as "Old Jerome" it really makes me wonder if this was actually a completely new character, and Joe was just a delusional wing-nut at this point in her life, to think that it's her exhusband.
