Beautiful Boy
one of the scenes in the book that impacted me the most was the one where <PERSON> sees <PERSON> drive off and she chases him with her car, and i’m so happy it made it into the film (even though it’s done differently but hey we’re not nitpicky). but they ommitted the line which made the whole thing stick to my mind, so i’ll just share it here:
“Later, when we're alone, she [<PERSON>] confides to me [David], "I wanted to tell him to get help, but mostly I was chasing him—chasing him away from our house—from <PERSON> and <PERSON>.”” 577
