"Conventional stories told in an unconventional way are good. Conventional stories told in a conventional way are boring.
Unconventional stories told in a conventional way are great. Unconventional stories told in an unconventional way are bonkers - they either soar you to giddy heights, or leave you confused and pissed off. Rarely anything in-between. Nailing this two-page is going to be tough. I'm going to buy some ciggarettes now. And maybe some mango juice. That would be delicious."
