I'm telling you,
with European girls,

:01:04
it's just a numbers game.
:01:05
If you stand in any major European
city on any fucking corner,

:01:09
and consecutively ask every girl
that walks by if she'll fuck you,

:01:12
one out of 20 will say "yes."
:01:14
Woman: A junior, a Drama major,
just back from Europe...

:01:17
only a little gay,
with flecked blond hair,

:01:20
a great body
and these amazing gray eyes.

:01:23
Bam-- 20th one, you're fucking.
Right there.

:01:26
It's a confirmed statistic,
my man.

:01:28
Woman: But Victor was fucking
my roommate, Lara.

:01:32
She gave him mono
before he dumped her.

:01:36
I'm told that later,
after I left Camden,

:01:39
she got really drunk and went
wandering through Windham House,

:01:43
and did the whole
football team.

:01:46
[ music plays ]
:01:47
Man: White girl...
:01:56
She's now married to a senator
and has four kids.

:02:00
How time distorts things.
:02:03
So you know the movie
I'm talking about?

:02:05
It was wrongfully labeled
"A Tarantino Film,"

:02:09
even though he was just credited
as executive producer.

:02:12
So this guy from NYU,
or whatever--

:02:14
who wasn't even
a good Victor facsimile--

:02:16
and I were talking
on this ratty old couch.

:02:21
I'm sure you've seen this movie,
this Russian classic,

:02:24
- "The Man with the Camera"?
- Yep, yep.

:02:26
I kept agreeing with his likes
and dislikes, all the time thinking

:02:30
that while he might not be Victor,
he was cute enough.

:02:33
It's real.
It's like real... shit.

:02:36
I was sure that I was mispronouncing
all these filmmakers' names,

:02:40
remembering
all the wrong actors,

:02:42
naming the wrong cinematographers,
but I wanted him.

:02:45
...I see the same kind
of "silent movie actress" quality.

:02:49
Seriously, has anyone ever told you
you look like Clara Bow?

:02:52
Because you do, I'm serious.
I'm telling you.

:02:55
I know these things, and...
and...

:02:57
Woman: I could see that his gaze was
drifting towards Kristin Notneff.
