my name is lester burnham
this is my neighborhood
this is my street
this is my life
im 42 years old
in less than a year i'll be dead
of course, i dont know that yet
and in a way im dead already.

look at me
jerking off in the shower
this, will be the highpoint of my day
its all downhill from here
thats my wife..carolyn
see the way the handle on those shears matches her gardening clogs
..thats not an accident
thats our next door neighbor jim and thats his lover..jim

man...i got exhausted just watching her
she wasnt always like this
she used to be happy
we used to be happy

my daughter jane, only child
jane is a pretty typical teenager
angry, insecure, confused
i wish i could tell her it was all goign to pass, but i dont want to lie to her.

both my wife and daughter think im this gigantic loser
and they're right...
i have lost something, im not exactly sure what it is
but i havent always felt this ..sedated
but you knwow what, its never to late to ..get it back

love this movie
