Destination Anywhere Page #2

Synopsis: "Destination Anywhere" is a contemporary film noir set on the streets of a gritty, yet colorful Manhattan neighborhood. Jon Bon Jovi stars as JON, a man on the run from his home, his gambling debts, and his marriage. He is summoned back to New York to deal with his emotionally estranged wife, JANIE, and emergency room nurse who has never fully recovered from the hit-and-run death of their only child several years ago. Jon returns to chaos, Janie is out of control and his debts have caused his life to be in danger. He struggles to cope with the troubles at home, but has built walls that are too thick to penetrate and the problems only escalate between Jon and Janie. When an abandoned baby is found in a dumpster and brought to the hospital where Janie works, a series of events is set in motion that forces the couple to reassess the terms of their love, responsibility and commitment to one another.

Would you like a private dance?

Get out of your houses, children of God.

Get out and come to Jesus.

Judge not, lest ye be judged.

And Jesus said a man ought to love

his wife as he loveth his own body.

And he that loveth his wife,

loveth himself.

And for that cause

a man shall leave his father,

and he shall leave his mother

and he shall be joined together

with his wife as one in flesh.

Those are the words of the Lord.

Come out of your houses,

children of God.

Come out of your houses

and come to Jesus.

And Jesus said to his disciples,

he said,

a man ought to love his wife

as he loves his own body.

A man who loveth his wife,

loveth himself.

And for this cause, a man shall leave his

father and he shall leave his mother...

Can l get you to roll down that window?

You are a little ripe.

- Tough night.

- l guess so.

What? A dog pee on you?

Stop drinking that wine, man.

lt'll rot your gut.

- lt dulls the pain sometimes.

- Oh. You in pain, man?

lt means you're human.

Only dead people have no pain.

You awfully quiet. ln the morning,

you come out from behind some dubry.

Why did l pick you up?

Oh well, you're cute. You're

too young for me so don't get nervous.

You like the movies?

- Yeah.

- Saw a great movie last night.

Had Muhammad Ali in it. You know him?

- Yeah.

- Well, you look young.

When you're my age,

you have to ask those questions.

lt was really great.

When l was a kid, he was the greatest.

You know why he was great?

Because he knew how to get down.

They'd hit him and hit him.

He'd get right back up.

No question about it.

No question of surviving with him.

That's what life is about. You get

knocked down, you gotta pop back up.

You just gotta flow back. Like a river,

you gotta keep going forward.

You can't back up, unless you're

a salmon, then you swim upstream, but...

l don't think it's a human thing.

You really quiet.

Are you nervous? l'm a good driver.

Move!

Sorry, l don't mean to get like that.

People just upset me out here, cos

they can't drive. They're from Jersey.

You're not from Jersey, are you?

You married?

- Yeah.

- ls she cute?

- Yeah.

- You love her?

Yeah.

- Were you out all night?

- Yeah.

You want me to stop

and get some flowers for her?

No.

You got to give her flowers.

You got to give her flowers.

You got to say, ''l'm sorry.

l made a mistake.''

Cos you know it was you,

or you'd be home.

lf it wasn't you, you wouldn't

have stayed out.

So, you've gotta be a bigger man.

You gotta keep getting up.

And even when she say's, ''Go away!''

cos white girls are dramatic,

you gotta come back

and stay with her.

- Gotta learn how to take a hit, huh?

- Gotta learn how to take a hit.
