ps in her life so she seems to live through the experiences that Nina has. Im not sure how healthy that is in real life, but it seems to be comforting to Josie in this movie.Even the closest women friends do not talk about everything. Nina has just gotten out of a long and unproductive relationship with another man and the thought of jumping right back into that is too much for her. So when she says that This is no love thang; me and Darius are just kickin it. I think she means it. She does not want to contradict something she said earlier in the movie to Josie. She said she isnt going to make the same mistake twice. And that mistake is falling in love because as Nina says, it is as played out as the A-track.In another scene the two women are at the Sanctuary, which is the club where Nina met Darius. They come to the club straight from the train station because Nina wants to see if Darius is there. Darius and Nina have gone through a separation period so she is anxious to see him but doesnt want to call him this soon so she just hopes to run into him. He isnt there and Nina is really tired and wants to go home. She never comes out and says that is her motivation but her girl knows her and she knows her motivation. Josie just validates Nina wanting to leave by saying Yeah, and there is NOT ONE cutie, in the house anyway! It doesnt seem like Josie really wants to leave but she will because her friend is ready to go.Then when they are leaving the club, Hollywood runs outside and stops them. He offers them a ride in his car (which happens to be a hearse) and the two friends can not help looking and each other in agreement and burst out in laughter. They are laughing even harder as they walk away and do not pay him any attention. One theme of womens friendships is that it is talk centered. I would agree that a great deal of the relationship between Nina and Josie is dialogue but this instance is a perfect example of how the closeness can...
