The films that make cinematic art great #43 The Dead (Gente di Dublino) di John Huston - Monologo finale
whenever you come across a survey or ranking concerning the hypothetical best monologues in cinema, you always find the same ones: Blade Runner, Raging Bull, Trainspotting, Good Will Hunting, Any Given Sunday... beautiful monologues, from great masterpieces (if we’re lucky, not so much the last two mentioned), but predictable, expected, trivial choices. Instead, there can be no words more beautiful than those final ones from Houston's last film, based on Joyce.
