Magnolia (1999) - Paul Thomas Anderson

Culpa... Arrependimento... Redenção... Amor!

"L'amour est un oiseau rebelle
Que nul ne peut apprivoiser
Et c'est bien en vain qu'on l'appelle
C'est lui qu'on vient de nous refuser."

Carmen - Bizet

E o diálogo entre o moribundo Earl Partridge e o seu enfermeiro Phil Parma? Sublime. Mais ímportante que o reconhecer da importância do amor na vida de uma pessoa, é a capacidade de reconhecer culpas próprias e de pedir perdão... Redenção!

"- Tem namorada, Phil?
- Não.
- Arranje uma...
- Ando a tentar.
- E faça coisas boas com ela. Partilhe aquilo... o amor! Essa treta toda... afinal é verdade, sabia...? Procure uma mulher em condições e não a largue..."

Wise Up (Aimee Mann)

It's not.. what you thought...
When you first... began it.
You got... what you want...
Now you can hardly stand it, though,
By now you know, it's not going to stop...
It's not going to stop...
It's not going to stop,
Till you wise up.

You're sure... there's a cure...
And you have finally found it.
You think... one drink...
Will shrink you to... your underground
And living down, but it's not going to stop...
It's not going to stop...
It's not going to stop,
Till you wise up.

Prepare a list for what you need,
Before you sign away the deed,
'Cause it's not going to stop...
It's not going to stop...
It's not going to stop,
Till you wise up.

No, it's not going to stop,
Till you wise up.
No, it's not going to stop,
So just give up.
