An Echo from "Adaptation"


Every time I sit down to write, Charlie Kaufman's voice-over echos in my mind:

"How to start? I'm hungry. I should get coffee. Coffee would help me think. Maybe I should write something first, then reward myself with coffee. Coffee and a muffin. So I need to establish the themes. Maybe a banana nut. That's a good muffin."

The movie is wholly brilliant, obviously. I recommend that you watch it so that we can talk about it. That'd be fun.
