sleepwalk with me

I watched this movie for the first time yesterday. And right as it ended, I hit play and watched it again. And before bed, I watched it a third time. It is really that good.  
My favorite lines from the movie:

"I think to be a comedian, you have to be a little bit delusional.  Particularly starting out, there's just so much failure and amidst that failure you have to tell yourself that it's going quite nicely. Because, if you didn't, you would just never get on stage again. You'd be like, 'well, I guess human beings don't like me.' That's a hard reality to face."

"I think falling in love for the first time is such a transcendent feeling, you know, it's like eating pizza flavored ice cream. Your brain can't even process that kind of joy."

"I think our whole lives, no matter how low our self-esteem gets there's a part of us that thinks 'I have a secret special skill that no one knows about' and eventually we meet someone whose like 'you have a secret special skill' and you're like 'I know, so do you, let's eat pizza flavored ice cream together' and that's love. It's a mountain of pizza flavored ice cream and delusion."
