Since the new year is finally in (happy new years to all). Here is a post for this new year. A clip of stupid but funny dialouge Warren Foster puts in from the 1959 Huckleberry Hound short, Nottingham & Yeggs

For context, Travis Bickle, the antiheroic protagonist of Taxi Driver, is talking to himself in in the mirror in the scene below:
If you combine those gifs, Bickle's state of mind is not unlike Luli in Hick (2011):
Then there is the reclining cynicism of this scene:
That is similar in attitude to this:
Yet in a way, there is a trope subversion, and also a condensing of two crucial characters in Taxi Driver, Bickle and Jodie Foster's Iris, closer to Luli's age, and likewise in need of a reliable parental figure:
In a way, Hick could be seen as a grittier, more realistic version of The Wizard of Oz, but it could also be seen as a rural retelling of the distinctly urban Taxi Driver, but with the focus on the Iris equivalent, but with the relentless drive and willpower to survive against the odds, like Travis Bickle, sort of like a rural prepper: Luli is Travis and Iris at the same time.

But addiction wakes up before you do, and it wants you alone. Alcoholism will win every time. As soon as you raise your hand and say, "I'm having a problem," alcoholism sneers, You're going to say something about it? Fine, I'll go away for a while. But I'll be back.
It never goes away for good.
