Not Pynchon but Kosinski (probably)

[Jemmy Bloocher]

I am quite keen to see this.

I am yet to actually walk out of a film, but the possibility is there I

Thanks for the article. Can people not close their eyes? Cover their ears.
Is the walking out because 'mass action'? Boredom I do understand; you
don't get time back.
