One thing I don't think the movie really captured is that cowardice in war often isn't a choice. People panic. They lose control. Some people just drop what they are doing and flee. In WW2, it was tons of civilians who had no real training thrown into the firestorm. Cowardice isn't always a choice.

Being the older brother it also made me think about how I tried to protect, teach, and also annoy my younger brother.

This is prob top 5.

Another: in "It's a Wonderful Life" when he returns from the bridge and no-one realizes what he just went through and is happily back to reality.

Underrated one is when the father in Mary Poppins has a similar realization and goes to spend time with his kids.

The Family Man, when he happily trades his privileged penthouse lifestyle in NYC for a family in the burbs.

Those 3 sort of hit home, not sure why. I guess it sort of happened in real-life. A senior master sergeant broke down crying at his retirement ceremony after realizing he worked too much and spent too little time with his family. But at least he realized it and hopefully changed.

The epic rant about the human condition in Fight Club is pretty good too.

There are times in life when the world just seems to slow down, and you are fully in the moment. When everything around you seems to almost solely harmonize with you. Just completely being in the moment, and you feel at one with everything. Hard to explain.

Those are the times I really cherish, they don't come often.

I have seen the play as well. The movie has a stellar cast- I identified with Roma quite a bit. That frustration with the situation.

No, I explained the rationale behind them to you, from the perspective of the people who levy them.

Understanding an action and endorsing it are not the same thing.

I had that experience once this year - hiking to the top in Sequoia, where the lakes are. It was completely peaceful - no other humans around. My wife and I (we practice Vipassana) meditated there for an hour. We didn't speak for an hour after that. That moment is one we'll cherish for the rest of our lives.

I saw this movie with my dad. Great flick.

We go for motorcycle rides in Germany, chop wood if I'm here for the summer. Wifey brings me out an ice cold beer and 'mettbrot' - nice and salty. Her parents are my friends - I never thought this could happen, as I had always clashed with my gf's parents in the past. *Always*.



Puni mentioned the other day that he does ban accounts. But it's that time of year where the misery crew desperately need "to vent". You end up just ignoring the vast majority of his drivel.
Yes. Both my brother and I are adopted, non-blood related. I'm from Novokuznetsk, Siberia and he is from Kemerovo, Siberia. 10 years between us.

Thanks for sharing that. You really must have gone through a lot to feel that true "sense of belonging".

It is one I have found more common in rural areas than big cities too.
