I just finished watching "Happiness Terminal" by Tom Hanks. Although the ending is not a happy ending, it should be the real ending.

Perhaps the unsatisfactory ending is satisfactory.

It's still a story of little people, but don't forget, we are all little people.

The smaller the person, the more real; the more trivial, the more real.

Those perfect imperfections, those happy sorrows, those forbearing helplessness... Such talents really exist.

Perhaps the hero and heroine were not together in the end, it was destined. Just like the necklace Napoleon gave Josephine, those thousand fountains... are all destined.

Even so, I still hope that after the long-distance running, I will be waiting for happiness at the terminal station...

The Terminal quotes

  • Frank Dixon: Do you know, one of my own men came up to me the other day, asked me if I wanted to join the big pool. Look at 'em, look at 'em, look at 'em. Place a bet on when Navorski was gonna leave this airport. Have you heard about this?

    Thurman: [nodding] I have January 3rd.

  • Amelia: I just keep injesting these poisonous men until I make myself sick.

    Viktor Navorski: You're not sick, Amelia, no. You're a little far-sighted.
