I was supposed to be your man.

Ashley.

You 're a f***in' b*tch.

You left me for a guy named Lance.

Ashley.

You 're really stupid.

Cos I was saving up

to take you to France.

Yeah, I was gonna take you to France.

Mr. Koontz? It's Dr. Nirmala.

Are you in there?

Mr. Wilcox at the front desk

said you were In

Hello, Mr. Koontz.

I've been so concerned, Mr. Koontz.

You didn't return to the hospital

for your physical therapy.

And you don't answer your telephone.

And your friends say

that you never visit them

and you don't allow them to visit you.

And... And Mr. Pim, the grocer

he says that you shop once a week

and not till late at night.

Now, I can understand.

You don't want your friends to see you

perhaps not as you once were.

But if you came in for your therapy

you would improve.

and so would your spirits.

I can arrange to have

a physical therapist come here

three times a week. Hm?

Would you like that?

Of course, it's going to be more

expensive than at the hospital.

What else... What else

do I have to spend my... my money on?

Ah, son of a b*tch! It stinks!

Let's keep our voices down.

Let's just keep our voices down.

Shut the f*** up! What the f*** are

we talking about, keeping sh*t down?

Where's this f***in' b*tch at?

That skanky whore has my money.

Oh, hi!

Well... Well, how are you?

I mean, I heard you got hurt

Joel Schumacher

Joel T. Schumacher (born August 29, 1939) is an American film director, screenwriter, and producer. Schumacher rose to fame after directing hit films of his decade St. Elmo's Fire (1985), The Lost Boys (1987) and Flatliners (1990). He later went on to direct John Grisham adaptations The Client (1994) and A Time to Kill (1996). His films Falling Down (1993) and 8mm (1999) competed for Palme d'Or and Golden Bear respectively. In 1993, he signed on to direct the next installments of the Batman film series. Schumacher-directed Batman films Batman Forever (1995) and Batman & Robin (1997) received mixed-to-negative reactions from both critics and the public. After the Batman films, Schumacher pulled back from blockbusters and returned to making minimalist films such as Tigerland (2000) and Phone Booth (2002), both earning positive reviews. He also directed The Phantom of the Opera (2004), The Number 23 (2007) and two episodes of House of Cards. Known for casting young actors, Schumacher helped actors like Colin Farrell, Kiefer Sutherland, and Matthew McConaughey to launch careers. more…
