Regarding the guy at Cold Mountain, I suspect he was one of those movie-surfers who goes to a multiplex, purchases a ticket for one show, then wanders around and catches half of that movie, 2/3 of another, and 1/4 of a third, while consuming junk food, finally finds a show he can really relate to (Dumb and Dumber-er) and settles back, only to find out he's run out of junk food money!!! AAARGH! He finally reels out at 1 AM, totally pie-eyed from watching 5 different films for 7 hours and runs a red light and T-bones a cop car. In the prison 3 months later he gets to see Dumb and Dumber-er again, but on a much smaller screen. His life is filled with disappointment and anticlimax. When he finally is released he will do it all over again.
