Joe Versus the Volcano
I know there are some that do not appreciate this movie; it has goofy humor and a far out story line. Joe Vs. The Volcano also has a few unforgettable moments. Moments I keep close to my heart twelve years after the movie was released. Also, I think I might be a flibbertigibbet.
The first part of the movie has a dark stylized overtone. We see Joe go to work at a interestingly creepy prosthetic limb manufacturer. Moving from funny to sad and back again, Joe is being pushed to the edge by his job and terrible boss. He treasures a hula lamp.

Joe goes to the doctor and is diagnosed with an unusual illness. His adventure begins after a visit from a very rich man with a job offer.

I don't want to give away anything important, so you will have to see or re-see the movie to learn more about this charming story. It has slow talky parts, and an offbeat look overall; but there are genuinely funny moments and a feeling you take away that is, in part, hopeful. Hopeful that the volcano you are about to jump into will spit you out too.

A few Quotes:
"Not that anyone could look good under these zombie lights. I, I, I, I can feel them sucking the juice out of my eyeball. Suck, suck, suck, SUCK..."
"Don't you think I know that, Frank? Don't you think I am aware there is a woman here? I can smell her, like, like a flower. I can taste her, like sugar on my tongue. When I'm 20 feet away I can hear the fabric of her dress when she moves in her chair!"
"Clothes make the man. I believe that."
"It's taken me my whole life to find out who I am, and I'm tired now, you hear what I'm saying?"
"This is our premier steamer trunk, it's all handmade, only the finest materials. It's even watertight, tight as a drum. If I had the need, and the wherewithal, Mr. Banks, this would be my trunk of choice."
"My father says that almost the whole world is asleep. Everybody you know. Everybody you see. Everybody you talk to. He says that only a few people are awake and they live in a state of constant total amazement."
" I'm soul sick."
"Take me to the Volcano!"
"I have no response to that."
"Nobody knows anything, Joe. We'll take this leap, and we'll see. We'll jump, and we'll see. That's life, right?"

Another magical and funny movie. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great rest of the weekend.
I've never seen it but I'm a huge fan of my man Tom Hanks. I will add it to my netflix.
ReplyDeleteYou are the best!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry I pressed publish before I'd finished my previous comment!
DeleteI just wanted to add that it's a pleasure to come across someone else who appreciates JVV and Ladyhawke, and although I admire you for not watching any subsequent Pfeiffer pfilms because you want to remember Michelle as Isabeau, you really should catch up.
Enjoy your Sunday.
