Many people discriminate against Hollywood. I do not. Saw a new movie "The Old Man and the Gun" there today. The story is not complicated or exciting, but it is told smoothly.

In this kind of film, the relationship between people is normal. Individuals can be abnormal. But the relationship between people is normal. Between husband and wife, between police and criminals, it's not an exaggeration.

Everyone's fun, and the movie's jokes, come from intelligence, not stupidity. In Wang Xiaobo's words, this is "advanced".

The Old Man & the Gun quotes

  • Forrest Tucker: If I ever wonder what I'm doing or where I'm going, I just think to myself: "Is that little kid I was when I was just about this tall," I say, "well now, would he have been proud of me?" And if the answer is "no", well then I just keep walking on through. But if the answer is "yes", then I know I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be.

    Jewel: So is he proud of you? That little boy?

    Forrest Tucker: Oh, he's getting closer every day.

    Jewel: But you're never exactly where you're supposed to be, are you? I mean, 'cause if you are, you're dead. And little ten year-old you, he's... y'know, he might have hopes and dreams, but he doesn't understand time or the world like you do. So, I think you gotta keep on keeping on, just living your life, trying new things, just gotta keep on pushing.

  • John Hunt: I figured out who he is.

    Maureen: And?

    John Hunt: He's a guy... who is old... but used to be young... and he just really loves robbing banks.

    Maureen: That's it?

    John Hunt: That's it.

    Maureen: Just like you're a guy... who's a cop... who's gonna catch him.
