I liked "Bubble" more than I think a lot of people did, but my favorite part was those closing credits. Yikes. Chilling, but why, exactly?

Bubble always makes me think about the mannequins and dolls in Kubrick’s Killer’s Kiss

Loved BUBBLE. And finally saw GIRLFRIEND EXPERIENCE tonight with a group. Good film and good discussion after. Glenn, you were perfect. Especially the way you said "Cocaine."

This affinity is not surprising. Lester and Soderbergh do, after all, have a bit of a mutual admiration society going.
