What Has Come of Me???

Movies were a passion.......I have seen one in three months on shitty cable televison.....Formula 1 was another passion....I have seen one post race press conference in five races.....Poetry was another....I have written nothing that I love except for 'fractured frames' and the 'scenarios'
I am decaying....vegetating......I have had enough.

here are some random movie quotes to keep up the old fires of memories burning......

The film is 'Seven' by David Fincher....The scene is the climactic car drive into the distribution grid where kevin spacey, brad pitt and morgan freeman have the showdown..
"
MILLS
We're not just going to pick up two more
bodies, are we, Johnny? That wouldn't
be... shocking enough. Wouldn't keep you
on the front page of the newspapers.

JOHN DOE
Wanting people to pay attention, you can't
just tap them on the shoulder. You have to
hit them in the head with a sledgehammer.
Then, you have their strict attention.

The film is 'Pulp fiction' by Queinten Tarantino....The scene is the finale of the opening sequence involving John Travolta and Samuel L Jackson...

JULES
There's a passage I got memorized,
seems appropriate for this
situation: Ezekiel 25:17. "The path
of the righteous man is beset on
all sides by the inequities of the
selfish and the tyranny of evil
men. Blessed is he who, in the
name of charity and good will,
shepherds the weak through the
valley of darkness, for he is truly
his brother's keeper and the finder
of lost children. And I will
strike down upon thee with great
vengeance and furious anger those
who attempt to poison and destroy
my brothers. And you will know my
name is the Lord when I lay my
vengeance upon you."

The two men EMPTY their guns at the same time on the sitting
Brett.

The film is 'Terminator 2'...the scene is the one before arnie, linda hamilton, john connor and the computer geek go to blow up skynet...

Pavement rushing at us, lit by headlights. Beyond, darkness.

SARAH (V.O.)
The future, always so clear to me, has become
like a black highway at night. We were in
uncharted territory now... making up history
as we went along.
