For the first time in a long while, I saw "The Apartment" last night. I couldn't believe how Jerrry could treat Elaine. She was so happy about the apartment, and just because of Jerry's selfish reasons, she was let down. I just can't believe he could act like that toward a friend. I'm glad he had that major disturbance at the end.

You just figured that out? They're ALL like that, that's wht makes them so likable. They do things we would like to do, but can't because of our consciences.....

Well, I knew that they could be mean or heartless at times. But what Jerry did there was just terrible

He DID load her $5000.

I could use that kind of cruelty.
