The genius of having the little sister turn around and see her! It gives us a reminder that in this movie those were people who had families. It was a reminder to her and the audience that death is serious.
Anyone notice Veronica’s actually wearing black for this funeral? She was wearing blue at Heather C’s. Maybe it’s to show this is the moment she realizes her actions have actually hurt someone (the little girl)
[Fictional news reporter Howard Beale, Network (1976 movie),] gave the following speech that still resonates today. “I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It’s a depression. Everybody’s out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel’s worth. Banks are going bust. Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there’s nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there’s no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TVs while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that’s the way it’s supposed to be. "We know things are bad - worse than bad. They’re crazy. It’s like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don’t go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is: ‘Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won’t say anything. Just leave us alone.’ "Well, I’m not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get MAD! I don’t want you to protest. I don’t want you to riot - I don’t want you to write to your congressman, because I wouldn’t know what to tell you to write. I don’t know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you’ve got to get mad. (shouting) You’ve got to say: ‘I’m a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!’ "So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’ "I want you to sit up right now. Get up. Go to your window. Open them and stick your head out and yell - ‘I’m as mad as hell and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’ Things have got to change. But first, you’ve gotta get mad!…You’ve got to say, ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’ Then we’ll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first, get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dib2-HBsF08.html
Ms. Close looked so pretty in this film. Which I consider to be the saddest, macabre-like tear jerker tragedy, EVER! And I loved it!! Sincerely, J.Nichols 🖖
"You don't need to be the smartest person in the room, but you need to be confident and able to detect bullshit." That is the lesson for young professionals in this scene.
The music on this clip is way too freaking loud I feel like I'm listening to a Mozart concert with a movie playing in the background! Tone it down a bit!
Anyone ever noticed their contrast in jacket colors burgundy for sad and tragic pink for cheerful loving blue for hope and happiness for sad and tragic
I really thought when I first saw the movie that DeNiro and Bean were working together and Bean would show up late in the movie. It never occurred. He would have been an obvious one to have shot Seamus (not Vincent) prior to Seamus dispatching Sam.
T think of the soliders who lost their lives in Afganistan now that Urkaine and the madman Putin is upon us I am ashamed to say this the best call to arms every written or performed ... my father was shot in the resistance in WW2 rescuing someone and lived to tell the tale. I detest war but if it happens those men and women who sacrify themselves should never be forgotten, and always be honoured.
By Henry's logic, if God has already decided the English are destined to win, then he should really keep all the glory for himself by fighting the French all by his lonesome.
