Today is the one-year anniversary of Grandpa Tang's death

The movie theater of my childhood is in my heart

There's that movie theater in heaven

mottled wall

Wander through every dark passage

and me hiding behind the curtain

Walk through the crowd after the screening

staff calling my name

projector sound

Imprints on the film at the beginning

grainy

Aunt should still be alive

long-winded

Yellow halo should still be alive

smirk

The living have to live well

pain and pleasure

It's all living proof

find yourself

often forget who you are

think of them

I remember who I am

find yourself

Cinema Paradiso quotes

  • Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult: Elena, perhaps in the future we could...

    Elena Mendola - Adult, Director's cut only: No, Salvaotre, there is no future. There is only the past. Even last night's encounter was just a dream. A wonderful dream. When we were young, we never did it. Do you remember? Now that it has happened, I can't imagine a better ending.

    Salvatore 'Toto' Di Vita - Adult: I'll never agree with you. Never.

  • [to Elena]

    Alfredo: Out of the fire of love come ashes. Even the greatest love eventually fizzles out.
