“TRESPASS”

I have not had the internet in a year and I did not know this movie existed until today. I am not sure if this came out in theaters.

menu screen very promising. Diamonds, broken glass (broken diamonds???), shotgun shells.

First line: “I don’t understand why we can’t continue construction.”

Fastest phone dial in history.

Nicolas cage, living in a white house and literally wearing rose colored glasses. Well, orange.

“Mom’s being arbitrary and inflexible.” Cage as rational, adaptable, consistent.

If Nicolas Cage were the star of Inception the tag line would’ve been “your wardrobe is the scene of the crime! Yeesh!” or was that minority report. either way.

“I need hugs.” – Nicolas Cage, Trespass

I am pretty sure he just referenced his pachinko commercials.

Sunglasses the same color as the walls. Fantastic stuff. they don’t teach you this in film school. oh wait, yes they do.

I do not want to see Nicole kidman in this underwear.

A white house full of black rooms.

Fucking bank heist montage music playing as a 16 year old girl sneak out of her room to go to a party. And Nicolas cage worried about his daughter smoking cigarettes. Painting the picture of a good family. Eventual cage freakout potential is enormous. I’d like to say this is a morning erection, after all it is 6 in the morning, but this is not the case.

Faceless cops. Fake cops. Are there any other kind?

Infighting between criminals. Can’t wait to see how cage exploits this.

this villain character’s elocution is just top notch.

An odd twist. Cage is seemingly grabbing the upper hand but acting so bizarrely that it seems this is a situation in which neither has the power. It’s not so much a power struggle as an absolute void of power.

Cage attempts to become an accomplice in theft of his property.

Every scene reveals another layer of an incomprehensible onion and I realize that I have been crying for as long as i can remember.

all this time Nicolas cage has been refusing to open an empty safe.

Cage as organ donor. Intimidating thought.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, and the victims of those desperate measures serve a higher calling.

“I’m worth more dead than alive.” – Nicolas cage. Spoken like a man who knows he will never die.

twists and untwists and retwists and all kinds of stuff until it all knots together into…exactly what you thought was going to happen in the first place.

The house is on fire and crumbling but the home has come together!
