Maybe its the idealist in me, or the dreamer coming to light... But there are many time that movies touch me. They inspire in me those moments of greatness, moments of reflection, they are the moments that I will never forget because they are me... It is as if the writer reached inside my soul and said the words that I could have never come up with on my own...
4 come to mind but there are many more.
#1 Gene Hackman - Loose Cannons
As he sits talking to Dan Ackroyd he breaks into a moment of quoting Dylan Thomas...
Do not go gentle in that good night, rage rage against the dying of the light.
As they then sit back and howl at the night.
#2 Coach Carter - Our Deepest Fear
Although often attributed to Nelson Mandela the orginal source of this is debated. But this presentation in the movie Coach Carter is one of the most amazing dramatic presentations I have ever seen.
#3 The Never Ending Story
I often pride myself on my ability to fix things. There are no problems that I can's understand or work out a solution to. I remeber as a kid, my fascination with my dad's hands and how big and strong they are. And as a shop teacher and a father my own hands are what I use to communicate, to build, to help... A few years ago, my hands started to hurt, and I can not do many of the things that I would like as well as I would like... This movie is one of my greatest fears... what if I can't protect my family because I'm not strong enough...
and #4 last for now...
The Entire Movie - The Breakfast Club...
Because I am brain, an athelete, a basket case, a princess, and a criminal. The dreamer, the realest, the idealist, the cynic...
