long prologue

Talon 2022-03-14 14:12:23

At midnight, the beginning of Run 4

was a very long prelude. Only the night scene of New York was slowly changing. I held back, I believe that there might be something in the film that can start like this, and the result did not disappoint me.

Strange School's website defines it as a thriller, but the story is slow-paced, like the big river that Monty walks his dog through.

I think of my middle school buddies, the brothers and sisters who grew up together,

I think more of myself, after going through many choices in life, turn left or turn right or go straight, and find that I still want to fuck everyone like monty, fuck myself. I don't know who in the film doesn't feel that way, but it seems like they will.

At the end, I hope that the warm and warm life will be monty or what I have, but indeed, monty should have no chance to start over.

As the old saying goes, there is no turning back in life, and we can't cry over spilled milk.

Looking into the distance, the road is still long, and we still have many choices to make.

25th Hour quotes

  • Mary D'Annunzio: I wanted to know why I got a B minus on my paper.

    Jakob Elinsky: You got what you earned.

    Mary D'Annunzio: Nobody else in that class can write! You know it! I know it! Everyone knows it!

    Jakob Elinsky: Don't worry. You're not competing with them.

    Mary D'Annunzio: Yeah. But I am. Okay. I am competing with them. When you apply for college, you might have heard of this, they look at these things called grades and if your grades aren't good enough...

    Jakob Elinsky: Your grades are going to be fine.

    Mary D'Annunzio: Vincent Phiscalla writes a story about his grandmother dying and you give him an A plus. And meanwhile, the night of the funeral, you wanna know where Rhodes Scholar Vince is? Getting smashed at a basketball party and slapping girls asses. I mean, what is that? A charity A+? You wanna know why everybody always writes about their grandmothers dying? It's not because it's so traumatic. It's because it's a guaranteed A+! And you sit there all sentimental "Oh, Vince it was very powerful, very moving." No, it wasn't. You didn't care. Nobody cared. That's what grandmothers do. They die!

    Jakob Elinsky: Sometimes, guys have a hard time showing their emotions.

    Mary D'Annunzio: So, slapping my ass is a way of mourning his dead grandmother?

    Jakob Elinsky: [points to Mary's stomach] What did your mother say when you got that?

    Mary D'Annunzio: Um, she said, "Where did you get the money for that?"

    Jakob Elinsky: And?

    Mary D'Annunzio: What did I say or did I get the money?

    Jakob Elinsky: What did you say?

    Mary D'Annunzio: I said, "He likes me."

    Jakob Elinsky: Does he?

    Mary D'Annunzio: No. Why do you care so much?

    Jakob Elinsky: Just curious.

    Jakob Elinsky: No, I'm not going to change the grade.

    Mary D'Annunzio: Great! You know what, this was a big waste of my time!

    Jakob Elinsky: Wait!
