Scene from girl interrupted #2
I’m ambivalent. In fact, that’s my new favourite word.
Do you know what that means,ambivaIence?
I don’t care.
If it’s your favourite word,I wouId’ve…
It means “I don’t care.”That’s what it means.
On the contrary, Susanna. AmbivaIence suggests strong feeIings in opposition.The word suggests that you are torn… between two opposing courses of action.
WiII I stay or will I go?
Am I sane or am I crazy?
Those aren’t courses of action.
They can be, dear, for some.
WeII, then, it’s the wrong word.
No. I think it’s perfect.
It’s a very big question you’re faced with, Susanna.
The choice of your life.
How much will you indulge in your flaws?
What are your flaws?
Are they flaws?
If you embrace them, will you commit yourself to hospitaI for life?
Big questions, big decisions.
Not surprising you profess carelessness about them.
Is that it?
For now.
