America's past is like a big river

A few times, I felt a little unbearable. I was a little scared, but I restrained myself. The American past is more like an epic, telling us the traces of time on a person. It is the vicissitudes of life that make me reluctant to go. Thinking about my own life, several times I would dream of De Niro's white-haired scene at the train station, and I couldn't help but sigh.

A person's history is sometimes more intimate than the history of an era. I saw De Niro's rudeness, innocence, bravery, vulnerability, and confusion and confusion. Over the years, I have also been depressed or confident. Sometimes I really want to write a complete thing, but I don't know how to write it, maybe I'm not old enough. Speaking of Dahe, I thought of another American movie, River, which is about brotherhood and father-son love. I think that kind of warm movie is very suitable for me now, just like I like Zheng Jun.

Another: Once Upon a Time in America is highly recommended, and after watching it repeatedly, I like De Niro more after watching it.

    Every time I encounter a movie that is too good, I will always be entangled with complicated emotions when I appreciate it. When I come to the routine short comment, I find that it is useless to say more. (Perhaps I can substitute them to realize the future: when can I experience such a full life, young expectations, but I don’t know that the friendship and direction that herald a lifetime are passed away in the expectation.) Don’t compare because of similar filters. , "The Godfather" talks about men, it talks about life. →2016.10.28 second brush

    It was obviously good when I was a boy, but I must feel that this film does not respect women! The two rape scenes made me feel super-strained, as well as all kinds of interruptions and rants at women. Are the values ​​in 1984 so barbaric?

Once Upon a Time in America quotes

  • Frankie Minaldi: Hey, Joe, tell these guys the story about the pussy being insured. What is it? Tell these guys how you stumbled on this whole thing. Tell them the story. Come on. Pussy insurance, the insurance pussies. Tell them that story.

    Joe Minaldi: Life is stranger than shit, that's all. It's a pisser. No big story. I got this insurance agent, this Jew kid named David. He conned me into every policy in the world. Every policy, name it, dogs, house, wife, life, anything. I'm drinking with the boys one night. He comes in with his wife, a brunette with a nice ass who works for a jeweller. And he's still on the hustle, this guy. So I wink at the guys, I say, "Look... the most serious policy, you don't have me covered for." He goes, "What's that, Joe?" "Cock insurance. You make me a policy that when it don't work, I get a payment. I'll write out a check now." He thinks, and he says, "I don't know if the actuality gauges govern this... but we can make a policy. But you gotta guarantee you're in good health now." I says, "Look, leave her with me. Come back and see if it stands up. If it stands up, you know I'm in good health." The jerk leaves her. I screw her. Not only that, she likes it. And she tells me when her boss, the jeweller is shipping stones to Holland, where he keeps his stash - in a drawer in the safe - everything! Can't ask for more, right? Except, one better. I never paid the first premium on the new cock policy.

    Max: [laughing] Cock insurance...

    Joe Minaldi: Life is funnier than shit. But... be easy with the girl. I mean that. Be easy with the girl.
