See yourself in the movie

I think every young person who is new to society will encounter similar problems in movies. So, should we believe in ourselves and break the blood, or lower our noble head, learn and become a part of it?
Our friends, relatives and parents are all saying: You are young, you don’t understand a lot, you will understand in the future.
Some of us follow blindly, some are angry, some become "understanding" early. . .
However, I want to ask: what we don’t understand, what we will understand in the future, is it true, good, and beautiful? Or is it as dirty and ugly as in the movie?
What would it be like if the world were left in the hands of young people like white paper? I guess it will only be better, not worse. We are young, we are simple in some aspects, we are inexperienced, but we have more precious things: integrity and kindness.
If we do not dye ourselves in these colors, even if we still have a clean territory in our hearts, when social resources are transferred to us, we may be able to reshape a beautiful new world.
At that time, our next generation no longer need to understand the cruelty of the so-called reality, and no longer need to be taught the so-called "you are young and you still don't understand".

    How to tell a story is really an art. The first 5-10 minutes I felt a little boring, but I was attracted before I knew it. Among them, okay? bad? Human nature is too complicated.

    Washington’s great performance overwhelmed everything in this film. I wish Alonzo would be the final winner. The ending of this dog day hurts my heart.

Training Day quotes

  • Stan Gursky: [in a steakhouse restaurant] Alonzo, heard you had an expensive weekend in Vegas. How did you ever screw up so bad?

    Alonzo: Hey, I didn't know. It's not my town. I'm not omniscient.

    Lou Jacobs: The Russians don't care if you have a badge. They'll whack you. You ought to hop a jet out of here.

    Alonzo: Why? It's an easy fix. I'll just cash in on an account.

    Stan Gursky: Which one?

    Alonzo: One of my old ones, my first one. The guy's a high security risk anyway. If I'm not around, who's gonna help keep him off the radar?

    Stan Gursky: All right, it's your call. I do not want you to dick this up. I don't want to see you on the front page like the rest of those assholes.

  • Jake: [after meeting with the Three Wise Men] How much money was in that bag?

    Alonzo: 40 G's.

    Jake: What was that for?

    Alonzo: You really wanna know?

    Jake: Yeah. I asked, didn't I?

    Alonzo: Nothing's free in this world, Jake. Not even arrest warrants.

    Jake: Shit, I didn't wanna know.
