Lars and the Real Girl2007

Lars Lindstrom:
I was talking to Bianca, and she was saying that in her culture they have these rites of passages and rituals and cermonies, and, just all kinds of things that, when you do them, go through them, let you know that you're an adult? Doesn't that sound great?

Gus:
It does.

Lars Lindstrom:
How'd you know?

Gus:
How'd I know what?

Lars Lindstrom:
That you were a man

Gus:
Ahhh. I couldn't tell ya.

Lars Lindstrom:
Was it... okay, was it sex?

Gus:
Um. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's uh, yeah, yeah it's kind of - it's uh - no. Well, it's kind of sex but it's not uh, you know? I don't know. I don't know. It's - uh - good question, good question.

Lars Lindstrom:
Yeah, but I have to know

Gus:
[dryer buzzes] Hold that thought.

Gus:
[in basement] You know, you should ask Dagmar

Lars Lindstrom:
I did ask Dagmar. And she said that I should ask you.

Gus:
Okay, you know I can only give you my opinion.

Lars Lindstrom:
That's what we want

Gus:
Well, it's not like you're one thing or the other, okay? There's still a kid inside but you grow up when you decide to do right, okay, and not what's right for you, what's right for everybody, even when it hurts.

Lars Lindstrom:
Okay, like what?

Gus:
Like, you know, like, you don't jerk people around, you know, and you don't cheat on your woman, and you take care of your family, you know, and you admit when you're wrong, or you try to, anyways. That's all I can think of, you know - it sound like it's easy and for some reason it's not.
