Day 21 - It's cool

Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day by Troy Duffy

The big thing to learn from this is that it's possible to be too cool.  Too many characters know just what to say all the time;  Too many people are just too cool.  You can have one or two characters that are clever and funny, but when every is dropping bon mot's, everyone's just seem too contrived.  Tarantino is probably the root cause of this because all of his characters sound cool, but they all sound different.  They're not all clever and quirky; individual, yes - Smooth talkers, not always.
