Radio Interviewer: [talking calls] Next up here is Gerald, from south west Detroit. Welcome, Gerald.
Stone: I, I just wanna say, I got this book. They say that when you experience a spiritual truth, that it comes to you through sound. If you let this sound go through you, it changes you, you know? Puts you back into harmony. You know, it makes you like a tuning fork of God.
Radio Interviewer: Okay...
Stone: Yeah. They say, they say, you can start with small things, like little vibrations. You know, sound of a bee, sound of a buzzing light, and then it grows.
Radio Interviewer: All right. That's interesting.
Stone: Well, they say that everything that happens to you is what was supposed to happen to you, for you to advance. But you gotta come back lots a times, cycle through many lives until you learn, so you can grow.
Radio Interviewer: Well, thanks for your input. Next time up here in the WDDL listener line is Kathy in Farmington...

Made my eyelids as heavy as stones

This film is about a parole officer who is about to retire. He works on whether an arsonist should be released or not, which leads to undesired consequences.

"Stone" sounds like a crime thriller on paper, but it just what it is not. It is so slow moving, that the first seduction by Milla Jovovich happens forty minutes into the film. Just when the seduction subplot starts to pick up, suddenly the film becomes religious. Then suddenly the wife has gone crazy. The plot is all over the place, lacking in focus and clarity. It cannot decide whether it wants to be a thriller or drama. As a result, "Stone" is so boring, literally making my eyelids as heavy as stones.
