Scarecrow

Do you know the story of the scarecrow? You think crows are scared of a scarecrow?

No. The crows are not scared. Crows are laughing. Look, the farmer puts out a scarecrow, with a funny hat on it. Got a funny face. Crows fly by. They see that, strikes them funny, makes them laugh. They're laughing. Then they say: "That old farmer Jones down there, he's a pretty good guy. He made us laugh. So we won't bother him anymore."

Scarecrow is a movie about two people. One that thinks you don't have to hit people, not if you make them laugh. One that thinks that is bullshit. After all, you can't make them laugh no matter what, right? Or can you?
