Devil at ease

It can be described as a classic full of eyes, an absolute visual feast. Hollywood was at its peak at that time! Can not help but sigh. Many legendary movies are created every year.

The gathering of three big names, plus the blessing of the director and screenwriter, has an unparalleled charm. A speech that penetrates the soul and goes straight to the deepest part of the soul.

This is an extreme movie from the first second to the last second, and there are very few movies that can bring out the same impression in memory. It is so rare and so precious.

Sometimes I can't bear to watch those classic movies, one less than one, and my life is still so long. Although this reason is a bit ridiculous and far-fetched, the real situation may not be able to spare too much time to watch a classic...

When the foundation for producing films with a specific era background is lost, those craftsmen are missing, there is no humanistic atmosphere, and there is no ecology, it will never be possible to reproduce its glorious moment. The reason why it is necessary to inherit intangible cultural heritage is because of its non-renewable nature. Any loss of culture, re-engraving will be a futile copy, and there will be no original flavor. The destruction of ecology is far easier than protection, and the cost of restoration after destruction is high.

There is no end to the accumulation of material wealth, and it is greed to include wealth that has not yet been acquired. The 21st century is a century of greed. People are not enough to swallow elephants. Financial giants play with global capital, turning clouds and rains, covering the sky with only one hand. When civilization is dragged into barbarism, from order back to chaos, man degenerates into animals. The reason why people are people is that they have moral constraints, and civilization can only be established by people who have constraints. Human civilization may come to an end, but is it too hasty to be trapped on the earth and consume it early? Looking at space, there are resources in the entire universe to be developed. The pattern is to be opened.

The Devil's Advocate quotes

  • John Milton: Now with this? Now that you're down? I'd get ready for one of those, Class-A, New York-style pigfucks.

  • John Milton: Eddie Barzoon, Eddie Barzoon. Hah! Oh, I nursed him through two divorces, a cocaine rehab, and a pregnant receptionist. Heh. God's creature, right? God's special creature? Hah! And I've warned him Kevin, I've warned him every step of the way. Watching him bounce around like a fucking game, like a windup toy! Like 250 pounds of self serving greed on wheels. The next thousand years is right around the corner, Kevin, and Eddie Barzoon-take a good look, because he's the poster child for the next millennium! These people, it's no mystery where they come from. You sharpen the human appetite to the point where it can split atoms with its desire, you build egos the size of cathedrals, fiber-optically connect the world to every eager impulse, grease even the dullest dreams with these dollar-green, gold plated fantasies until every human becomes an aspiring emperor, becomes his own god, and where can you go from there? And as we're scrambling from one deal to the next, who's got his eye on the planet? As the air thickens, the water sours, and even the bees honey takes on the metallic taste of radioactivity. And it just keeps coming, faster and faster. There's no chance to think, to prepare. It's buy futures, sell futures, when there is no future! We got a runaway train boy, we got a billion Eddie Barzoons all jogging into the future. Every one of 'em getting ready to fist-fuck god's ex-planet, lick their fingers clean as they reach out toward their pristine, cybernetic keyboards to total up their billable hours. And then it hits home! You gotta pay your own way, Eddie. It's a little late in the game to buy out now! Your belly's too full, your dick is sore, your eyes are bloodshot, and you're screaming for someone to help! But guess what? There's no one there! You're all alone, Eddie. You're god's special little creature. Maybe it's true, maybe god threw the dice once too often. Maybe he let us all down.
