Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant (1982)


Oh, it's closeness that does you in. Never get too close to people, son — did I tell you that when you were young?

Oh, it's closeness that does you in. Never get too close to people, son — did I tell you that when you were young?

Oh, it's closeness that does you in. Never get too close to people, son — did I tell you that when you were young?
