There's a reason that this is one of the intro to Vonnegut books. I've read it several times, and each reading teaches me something new. I see it through new eyes., but also through old perspectives.  
Ethan Hawke gives a gentleness to our narrator that breathes life into the story. You can envision him sitting across the table, smoldering Lucky Strike in hand saying, "Listen."
