Why do you want to talk about ugly things? she said. ... We should think only beautiful things, as much as we can. There is so much beautiful in the world if you look around. You are looking only at the dirt under your feet, Jimmy. It's not good for you.She would never tell him. Why did this drive him so crazy? It wasn't real sex was it? he asked. In the movies. It was only acting. Wasn't it?But Jimmy, you should know. All sex is real.
The dialogue explores a conflict between perspectives on life, where one character highlights the importance of focusing on beauty rather than the unpleasant aspects of existence. She urges the other to recognize the beauty surrounding them instead of being fixated on the negative elements. This emphasis on positivity reflects her belief in the healing power of beauty in the world.
Moreover, the conversation shifts to the nature of intimacy and reality, questioning the authenticity of sexual experiences depicted in media. Jimmy's confusion about the distinction between acting and real-life sexual connections suggests a deeper struggle with understanding relationships. The assertion that all sex is real serves as a reminder of the complex interplay between fantasy and reality in human experiences.
