The Weatherman

The Weatherman

在台灣的時候看到預告，覺得應該是一部很好笑的美國喜劇片。沒想到看完以後心情真是異常地沉重。

看這部電影讓我想到Nicholas Cage的另外一部Lord Of War，大量的獨白，而且是Cage自己的聲音；很低沉，很緩慢，有點無奈。
Quotes from the movie:

Robert Spritz: Do you know that the harder thing to do and the right thing to do are usually the same thing? Nothing that has meaning is easy. "Easy" doesn't enter into grown-up life.
Dave Spritz: I remember once imagining what my life would be like, what I'd be like. I pictured having all these qualities, strong positive qualities that people could pick up on from across the room. But as time passed, few ever became any qualities that I actually had. And all the possibilities I faced and the sorts of people I could be, all of them got reduced every year to fewer and fewer. Until finally they got reduced to one, to who I am. And that's who I am, the weather man.
