Winona Ryder movies I saw this weekend: "Girl, Interrupted" and "Alien: Resurrection"
 
A young woman on the bus thrust her half empty bottle of Snapple at me and asked if I could help her open it.
 
A man on the bus turned to a woman and said, "Well, I could give you my cell phone number. But then you'd have to give me your phone number." It was as if most of the conversation had taken place in his head. They were clearly strangers and she proceeded to ignore him for the rest of the ride.
 
That seat on the bus must have been haunted — both of the preceding anecdote subjects were sitting in it during the ride.
