Just because that's the average? I'm guessing a young, brash CIA recruit like Farrell would live in a small apartment close to work. 24.3 minutes is for lower middle class married schlubs.brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02735195151662028189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047429527902019331.post-11601285938373074472008-01-03T20:05:00.000-08:002008-01-03T20:05:00.000-08:00I actually saw "The Recruit" of my own volition (I...I actually saw "The Recruit" of my own volition (I have a thing for Bridget Moynahan, and I figured, Hey, it's Pacino? How much can it hurt? More than I figured, unfortunately), and I totally overlooked that simple, yet infuriating plot hole (good eye!). I was busy waiting for Pacino to simply start gnawing his way through the scenery, which is always a good time.D.

What drives me nuts is how a conversation will continue minutes, hours or even days later after its begun when a scene shifts, IN THE EXACT SAME PLACE.
