Such a hopeful movie

First of all, I watched this movie because of the rarer and rarer movies available to watch online for free and I didn't have the chance to download it, so of the few movies I had, I was drawn to the strange name. Of course, I don't like the translation of the blade of grass in this way. Perhaps, it is more suitable for sentient beings like weeds.

If this is a novel, in fact, the plot is very full, and there are many places that can be described in depth. I like poetic movies. Whether it’s those quotes or the irony represented by the incident of the female student, maybe it’s actually a kind of rhetoric, all kinds of subjunctive moods, all kinds of interchangeable styles, isn’t it like poetry?

Marijuana in the movie is of course also a highlight, creating a topical and engaging backdrop. To be honest, it's hard to find organic marijuana like that.

Life is not a circle, go out and return to the origin.

It's not to say that everything is complete in the end, but isn't that what life is like, in a kind of restoration that can be regarded as a sacrifice, and it ends up in peace. We all don't know if it's degradation or progress? Should you cry or laugh?


By the way, Norton has always been a very good actor, both good and evil, very literary, and very pitiful.

    I like to find the feeling of surprise in a down-to-earth movie. The starring of absolute strength, the country music interspersed in the film, and the philosophy of life revealed in the dialogue, these are the good things about this film. Without fancy packaging, the whole film starts from real life, let us think about our own life together.

    Saw the movie because of Edward Norton, but even Norton couldn't save the movie with a mediocre plot. All I can say is that the actors are good

Leaves of Grass quotes

  • Rabbi Zimmerman: We are animals, Professor Kincaid... with brains that trick us into thinking we aren't.

  • Bolger: Do you believe in a higher power?

    Brady Kincaid: Yea, I do. I do. It's the only way to make sense of all this. Otherwise, it's just pure fucking chaos.

    Bolger: Like where we is created by him and he judges what we do?

    Brady Kincaid: Well, I think it's more like... like parallel lines.

    Bolger: Parallel lines?

    Brady Kincaid: You know, like two lines go on and on forever and don't ever touch?

    Bolger: Yea.

    Brady Kincaid: 'Cept, they don't actually exist in nature. And man can't create true parallel. It's just more of a concept... Well that concept, that perfection, we know it exists and we think about it, but we can't ever get there ourselves. I think that right there is God.
