Europa (1991) – 4/4

Watched a library DVD (always a smart move), so there were two scratched segments. Little did I know, the player actually skipped the entire chapter on the disc. So I missed two entire chapters of the film without knowing. I suspected something was up, because while the first missing chapter didn’t actually cause me any mental problems (I assumed it was resuming a few seconds after the scratch began), the second one confused the heck out of me. I assumed there were a couple lines of dialogue that I missed during the scratch, so I just kept watching to the end. Then the movie ended, and something was missing. I had only seen one part of this movie before when my brother watched it one time, and there was a specific exchange between characters that I was kind of waiting for subconsciously because of that. So I put the DVD in the computer to see what the crap is going on, and sure enough, I had to go and watch the missing chapters on the computer.

TL;DR - People who check out movies from the library suck.
