Network

Post by Robo »

Network (1976, Sidney Lumet)
You have meddled with the primal forces of nature, Mr. Beale, and I won't have it!! Is that clear?

It is the international system of currency which determines the totality of life on this planet. That is the natural order of things today. That is the atomic and subatomic and galactic structure of things today! And YOU have meddled with the primal forces of nature, and YOU WILL ATONE!

There is no America. There is no democracy. There is only IBM and ITT and AT&T and DuPont, Dow, Union Carbide, and Exxon. Those are the nations of the world today.

We no longer live in a world of nations and ideologies, Mr. Beale. The world is a college of corporations, inexorably determined by the immutable bylaws of business. The world is a business, Mr. Beale. It has been since man crawled out of the slime.

The Great Caruso

Post by Robo »

The Great Caruso (1951, Richard Thorpe)

A scene from the film where Mario Lanza, as Caruso, sings the role of the clown, Canio.

The aria Vesti la giubba (Put on the costume), from Ruggiero Leoncavallo's opera, Pagliacci (The Clown)...
I declaim! While taken with delirium,
I do not know what I am saying,
or what I am doing!
Yet it is necessary, I must force myself!
Bah! Are you not a man?
Thou art Pagliacci!

-

Put on the costume and powder your face.
The people pay, and they want to laugh.

[...]

Laugh at the grief that poisons your soul.

Mario Lanza and Luciano Pavarotti were given their voices as a gift from God himself.
In the darkness of in-difference, evil will fester and grow........Bring it to light and it will ultimately disappear.

Truman Show

Truman Show (1998, Peter Weir)

(spoiler alert!)
Cristof:

Listen to me, Truman! There's no more truth out there than there in the world I created for you.

The same lies, the same deceit; but in my world, you have nothing to fear.
