_Videodrome_

> Rena King: What about it, Nicki? Is it socially positive?
>
> Nicki Brand: Well, I think we live in overstimulated times. We
> crave stimulation for its own sake. We gorge ourselves on it. We
> always want more, whether it's tactile, emotional or sexual. And I
> think that's bad.
>
> Max Renn: Then why did you wear that dress?
>
> Nicki Brand: Sorry?
>
> Max Renn: That dress. It's very stimulating.
>
> Max Renn: And it's red. You know what Freud would've said about
> that dress.
>
> Nicki Brand: And he would've been right. I admit it. I live in a
> highly excited state of overstimulation.
>
> Max Renn: Listen, I'd really like to take you out to dinner tonight
