washingtonpoststyle: S.L. Price on “Diner”: “[It] has had far more impact on pop culture than the stylistic masterpiece ‘Bladerunner,’ the indie darling ‘sex, lies and videotape,’ or the academic favorites ‘Raging Bull’ and ‘Blue Velvet.’” Read more. Photo via Vanity Fair courtesy of Paul Reiser I always remember the movie Diner, not because of how good it is, but because I watched it the night O.J. Simpson killed his wife and jumped into his Bronco sending the police on a chase, which I also watched. I had just turned 16.I rode my bike to West Coast Video (we don’t get our driver’s licenses til 17 in NJ), picked this out (on VHS), and sat in my friend Felicia’s basement, where I spent a lot of time back then. It was a pretty memorable night.  I’m gonna read this Vanity Fair article now.
