Yeah, it’s true, some dudes wheeled their friend’s corp$$$e to the corner store to cash his social security check.
They went inside to present the check, but a clerk said Mr. Cintron would have to cash it himself, and asked where he was, the police said.
“He is outside,” Mr. O’Hare said, indicating the body in the chair, according to Mr. Browne.
The two men started to bring the chair inside, but it was too late.
Whoops! Actually, while I’m sure Weekend is a steller film, I recommend the hilarious and moving Getting Home, also know as 落叶归根, or Luo Ye Gui Gen, which is the best adventure+corpse movie ever. The title comes from an idiom which loosely means, “Falling leaves return to their roots.” Rent that shit.
