NOTE FROM THE MISSED CONNECTIONS CHIEF BOTTLE FINDER:
This message reminded me of some sort of black and white film noir scene and what could be a better soundtrack than Duke Ellington’s Anatomy of a Murder? This YouTube clip was a student project about Saul Bass who designed the film’s legendary title sequence (and was also from Brooklyn and influenced by Russians… go figure!)
Russian Boy (near Brighton Beach)
Missed Connections in Brooklyn, NY
you were on the bus-stop with another guy — arguing.
You were trying to walk away, and he was trying to stop you. Saying something like “talk to me Michael” I was walking by. We looked at each other. Kept looking at each other. You made several steps toward me.. and I was too shy to say anything, just looked away.
You were following me for a little while .. i sat down on the bench, lighted up a cigarette. it seemed like you were not sure if I was interested … and the guy caught up with you. you turned around and walked to the bus station… bus arrived and you left… i saw you were looking at me through the window of the bus. It felt very sad actually.. missed connection.
I hope you’re reading this, i know it’s very unlikely…
All this happened on a Monday night around 11:30pm near Brighton Beach.
