Once I thought of my favorite quotes from the handful of movies I
recollected fully, in terms of frequency of usage, I would rank them as "
English Patient", "Forrest Gump", "God Father 1-3", "Horse Whisperer", "Kill
Bill 2", "Cool Hand Luke", "Sting", "007 series" etc. I am susceptible to
the subtle nuances of languages and easily fall for those exquisite
labyriths.
In English literature, I like Nabkov's "Lolita", all the Hemingway stories
and John Updike's "The whole state babies you" style stories. I like the
story to be written articulately, just like hearing Sophie Marceau ordering
french "hors d'oeuvres" in a movie.
Anyway, with that being said, the texture of the contents with unfathomable
depth is and always will be the only thing that gets me. In "English Patient
" there is a scene where Count Almasy explained to Katherine why he stays in
the desert. He said,
"I once traveled with a guide who was taking me to Faya. He didn't speak for
nine hours. At the end of it he pointed at the horizon and said, "Faya!"
That was a good day. "
That's it, you know. A picture of life, high hope and endless endeavor and
prolonged sufferings and infinite emptiness and finally, nothingness. Or as
Louis XVI put it on his last day of reign, on his last day of life, "Rien."
Anyway, “不为无益之事，何以遣有涯之生”。Writing something from my mind,
thinking of an intricate rhyming scheme, concocting a novel with unwhieldy
words make my life much more interesting.
And, that's ALL.
