Zahler likes to write about archetypes and his dialogue is very sharp and poetic to the point that sometimes his characters feel more like they're out of a book than a depiction of real life individuals. The characters are the centerpiece of his movies.

Until then in the movie there a couple of intense and charasmatic speeches and then Ned Beatty shows up for this one scene and blows them all away

I loved Beatty in Deliverance too. Any other movies with that are great?

That wasn't my criticism. It was a response to the claim that stupid people don't understand the movie, when the reality is that stupid people make up the majority of the fans. Obviously intelligence is not required to enjoy the movie.

>> No.14127533

>>14127511
Just because people like it doesn't mean they understand it. A lack of intelligence is required, however, to make a statement as blatantly inaccurate and inane as "guuhh it all jus' preddy pictures, all stile no substunce"

>Sweet Smell of Success

Sally : But Sidney, you make a living. Where do you want to get?

Sidney Falco : Way up high, Sam, where it's always balmy. Where no one snaps his fingers and says, "Hey, Shrimp, rack the balls!" Or, "Hey, mouse, mouse, go out and buy me a pack of butts." I don't want tips from the kitty. I'm in the big game with the big players. My experience I can give you in a nutshell, and I didn't dream it in a dream, either - dog eat dog. In brief, from now on, the best of everything is good enough for me.

(...)

Sidney Falco : You know, Susie, I've heard this woman-talk before. Why don't ya start growin' up, huh? Start thinking with your head instead of your hips. Uh, by the way... I got nothing against women thinking with their hips. That's their nature. Just like it's a man's nature to go out and hustle and get the things he wants. Susie, look at yourself. You're 19 years old. Just a kid, and you're falling apart at the seams. You tiptoe around on those bird legs of yours, nervous and incompetent with a fatality for doing wrong, picking wrong... and giving up even before you start a fight! Wait a minute. It's the truth, and the truth hurts. Come around some night when I'm not writin' your brother's column... and I'll revise that delicate outlook of life. To give credit where credit is due, Susie... that body of yours deserves a better fate than tumbling off some terrace. Susie... a bed is the best friend a girl ever had. Pleasant dreams.

Falstaff, whose memory of Shallow is doubtless less perfect than he says it is, takes in the truth at a glance; sees that this old forked radish, this pitiful cheese-paring of a man, lives only in the remembrance of his youth; and nobly decides – for even though he may think to have fun with Shallow later, and cash in on him as a butt whom the Prince will pay, there is something noble in the instantaneous decision p to fall in with his way of speech, to grant him just what he desires

Robert Shallow. O, Sir John, do you remember since we lay all night in
windmill in Saint George's Field?

Falstaff. No more of that, Master Shallow, no more of that.2050

Robert Shallow. Ha, 'twas a merry night. And is Jane Nightwork alive?

Falstaff. She lives, Master Shallow.

Robert Shallow. She never could away with me.

Falstaff. Never, never; she would always say she could not
Master Shallow.2055

Robert Shallow. By the mass, I could anger her to th' heart. She was
a bona-roba. Doth she hold her own well?

Falstaff. Old, old, Master Shallow.2060

Robert Shallow. Nay, she must be old; she cannot choose but be old;
certain she's old; and had Robin Nightwork, by old Nightwork,
before I came to Clement's Inn.

Silence. That's fifty-five year ago.

Robert Shallow. Ha, cousin Silence, that thou hadst seen that that2065
knight and I have seen! Ha, Sir John, said I well?

Falstaff. We have heard the chimes at midnight, Master Shallow.

The last and besto f these sentences sums up all that Shallow could hope to say in twenty quavering years, and does it so briefly that the breath of any hearer must be taken; and expresses its speaker so completely that he can never be absent from our consciousness henceforth
