“You know the beauty of quitting is that now that I’ve quit, I can have one, cause I quit.” -Tom Waits 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍

Iggy’s goodbye is wonderful. Not wanting to commit to seeing Tom again but wanting to appreciate him and be polite. “I guess we’ll keep... zipping along and I’ll be... I’ll be thinking about you”.

[@RockandrollNegro]

The complete film was released in 2003, but this scene was originally filmed in 1992.

[@01dirtydirk]

Wow... I seriously didn’t know that

[@travishabursky4362]

Explains why they can still smoke inside in California.

[@theekopper]

Yeah, that was back when Tom was still a doctor.

[@mycoolkeno]

The coffee they were drinking was an Ethiopian Yirgacheffe . It was brewed in January of 1973, the same day the United States left Vietnam.

[@smwrbd]

I was doing the math and something wasn't right. Thanks for clearing it up.

This whole movie is so very beautiful, and a great caring portrait of our generation, and all those who represent a more humanist way, and what happened to us in this damn world, what we became,... what it is like to not change the world and then to have to live with that.

Really? OO We need more of them, then...

[@owenwilberforce6138]

@@xoen6 - It is interesting in that sometimes the most resourceful people come from the middle class. Both Jim and Tom seem like they took modest backgrounds and found the magic in music and experience, both created bodies of work that stand the test of time and relate strongly to making something interesting come from the everyday aspects of American life.

[@georgebotelho288]

This is great on so many different levels. I love it when people are able to illustrate the subtleties of the human experience. I mean there's nothing like a night spent in awkward conversation with people in the same state of ambivalence about their interaction... imbibing copious amounts of coffee. That was pretty much the whole business model that Denny's was based on. But then there's the whole cigarette thing... I guess you'd have to have used 'parking meters as walking sticks' and subsequently gotten to a place where you're 'out there saving lives' in order to understand the significance of the statement 'Well now that I've quit I can have them' I could go for another hour about all of the little human-isms that are embedded in this. It's so mediocre that it's excellent! Thanks for this. I gotta get the movie again.. I love the scene with Bill Murray and his serious delirium

[@ricopaulson1]

Watched this a shit ton when cigs and coffee were my breakfast everyday. Been smoke free for ten years now. Just coffee now. Lots of it.

[@brandontodd14]

You know once you quit you can have one...

[@jonathanaldecoa1099]

[@EverGreen1888]

[@brandontodd14]

It was true.

[@thecommondingus]

"It was a medical morning"

[@danielj1063]

Just another day, huh 🤔

[@pollodustino]

Could also be "It was a medical mourning." With Tom you're never fully sure.

[@raycox3698]

Coffee and Cigarettes, a great series of skits between several pairs of greats filmed with the coffee and cigarettes as a common thread for each ... it was a fantastic film!

[@runedharma22]

Tom use to go to a restaurant called Adel's in Santa Rosa, when it still had a smoking section.

[@seriousmoonlight1160]

This makes absolutely no sense, and yet I've watched it four times.

[@seriousmoonlight1160]

@George Peterman Gotta love Tom Waits

[@paulsportal1720]

Did anyone notice later in the scene how Iggy’s cigarette is still pretty much full size while Tom’s is smoked down and pretty much gone and then Iggy’s coffee at one point is gone and Tom’s is still pretty much full?

[@ertansaygi]

It's for the subtle effect of the first conversation about coffee and cigarettes. It's never just coffee and cigarettes, it's a cultural thing and mostly it's coffee and cigarettes for some, it's cigarettes and coffee for others.

Because We quit, I can have 1

[@shumeister1059]

It's strange... but I've smoked after quitting for maybe a year, and it wasn't enjoyable, so I put it out after a minute. For me, it was a test of seeing how I felt about it. But I don't know if that was meant in this scene or it something else.

[@roel.vinckens]

- Look, I can go either way, you know. I can call you Iggy or Jim, whatever makes you happy. - Iggy! You call me Iggy! - Sorry I'm late Jim...

The perfect blend of reality and fantasy. Gets me every time. I saw you once in California in 1999 in December at a quiet restaurant. It was all white. You were at the bar, and left once folks started noticing you. But I didn't really know you then, or now, but somehow I like you. Iggy too.

It is possibly the most awkward conversation between 2 people, but it's hilariously perfect. The intro with Tom describing why he's late is genius. I would have believed him.
