NotesOne man follows another man to a bridge. The man gets ready to jump off bridge. The other asks for his watch but the man won't give it to me. Then the other one offers him some pills which will make suicide less painful. They go to his house and the man is given pills but they turn out to be vitamin tablets, though by this time he has gone to hospital. It turns out the watch fancier is going to die in 3-4 weeks and he wants to live out his fantasies. Both men buy some acid from a guy in a wheelchair. And off they go in the man's car. They're having a whale of a time but they've left us behind on the pavement. The dying man goes to visit his parents but this is the first time in 6 years and his father won't let him. Later they go back and have a family barbecue but it's all nostalgia. They shop for an urn, they rob a bank. This is a road movie in day trips where you keep coming back to where you started from. Anyway it comes to dying time and he asks his friend to help the grim reaper move a bit faster. And finally we see his ashes scattered from a cardboard box.
