OLD JOE

A screenplay character in Looper (2012).

Sample dialogue

You know what the voice of god sounds like? See now good you’re confused now but you’re listening. I hope the voice of god sounds like an old man speaking French. Old men speaking French sound like primeval trees in a strong wind, just irrefutable. Wise, strong, gentle, all these things in harmony, complimentary. At once. Old men speaking French. Young men speaking French sound, without exception, like weenies. Fact. You ever hear a Frenchman under 40 try to sound threatening? It’s hilarious. English is a tight t- shirt, flatters the young. Rat a tat tat. French is a double breasted suit. Young man can put it on, but it always feels like he’s putting something on. Some things, you just need the years. It’s my favorite language.

Hi. Daniel, right? I’m Chad’s father. Aren’t you going to come over? We’re doing cake.
scene 182 — EXT. PARK - DAY
That’s the question. And no one knows. Not only that, there’s no pictures of him. It’s insane. There’s stories he has a synthetic jaw. Things like that. But word spread quick about him through the ex-looper grapevine, even before his mass executions and vagrant purges and reign of terror, because the first thing he did was start closing loops. All of them. Exterminating the whole program. Cleaning house.
