**Better Off Dead** , John Cusack. A classic. And now from my favorite movie: “Consider outer space. From the time of the first NASA mission, it became evident that being in outer space has a profound effect on the human psyche. During the first Gemini mission, some followers were actually given to the notion of sending a man and a woman together. Cosmic Adam and Eve if you will, bound together in a highly sophisticated nerve center at the head of the most powerful rocket yet known. It’s giant thrusters blasting into the dark void as they hurtle toward their final destination: the gushing wellspring of life itself. How would you like to have a sexual encounter so intense it could conceivably change your political views?” ---
