Defending Your Life (1991 Albert Brooks & scr)

Apparently we haven't seen this since 2011... Like then, I love his past life of savage African running from a lion, and the moment where he drops in on Meryl Streep's 'trial' and they're all watching her clip for fun... And the Japanese restaurant. He never acknowledges that he is a twit for crashing his brand new BMW into a bus... But the story about life self-examination is a potent one, and makes you think of your own life...
