Professor Davidson: Remember: one person's interminable stretch of highway is--Skye Davidson: Is another person's road to adventure, I know. But going out of our way to see a giant ice-cream cone? That's crazy.
Professor Davidson: Crazy? Crazy is NOT to see the giant ice-cream cone. How'd you like to tell your friends we were in Baxter--Oh, didja see the giant ice-cream cone? No, we missed it. THAT would be crazy.

It took awhile to get going, but I ended up loving "Desert Blue" quite a bit. It was nice to see Sexton play a character without the need for anger-management, and I also liked Kate Hudson also. It wasn't the greatest, funniest or most touching movie I ever saw, but it was certainly better than most. I liked practically every character on some level, and I can't say that about a lot of movies. It made me think of "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" & "Bagdad Cafe" with a touch of "Firestarter".
