"We maybe through with the past, but the past isn't through with us."
_________
[maybe it wrong]

I think some details easy to ignore from this movie. When i first see these words from the smart boy named Stanley ,i was shocked.

He said:"I'm not a doll. I'm not silly and cute.I'm smart.That should make me something, so people can watch how silly it is that he's smart!I knew, I knew things."
If i know something beyond adults, you will think that I'm special,strange and unbelievable? If I just want to go to bathroom? No one can answer his question.

In our world, some people and something sacrifice to other's entertainment. You always hear:"hey,that gay is genuis"or "she married a deaf husband" and so on. When we mock at others,maybe they judge us at same time . We play the comedy together and we all wanted to see other's joke that make fun of ours life. To be a clown, someone struggling and someone giving up.

In the end of the movie, Stanley said to his father: "Dad, you have to be nicer to me." Yes, of course, dad have to take good care of child. But, no matter others behaviour, you must be nicer to yourselves.

"We maybe through with the past, but the past isn't through with us."this sentence maybe wrong. We have been changed in the time of past,as we go through it.

    The power of love is immeasurable. It’s tempting to survive each other's difficulties, isn’t it? Frogs fall from the sky, fate is very crossed, and man will die. Everything is not important. Forgiveness in exchange for death.

    #剪#The scene of the song "Wise up" in "Magnolia" is one of the most daring treatments in the whole play. Everyone sings, each actor sings about one-third of the entire song, and everyone's singing is independent. Instead of using a gradual transition, a series of direct editing is used to jump from one actor to another, which more realistically shows the texture of this dreamlike musical interlude.

Magnolia quotes

  • Jim Kurring: Now calm yourself down.

    Marcie: [shouts] I am calm!

    Jim Kurring: No you are not calm. You're screaming at me. Do you understand? I got a call for disturbance, and I'm going to checking it out. That is what I'm going to do. Are you alone in here?

    Marcie: I ain't got to answer none of your questions.

    Jim Kurring: No, you don't, but I'm going to ask you one more time. Are you alone in here?

    Marcie: What does it look like?

    Jim Kurring: There's no one else in here?

    Marcie: You in here.

    Jim Kurring: That's true, but is there anyone else besides me and you in this house?

    Marcie: No, I said that already.

    Jim Kurring: Are you lying to me?

    Marcie: I live by myself.

    Jim Kurring: That might be true, but the question I'm asking you, ma'am: is there anyone else in this house right now?

    Marcie: No.
