Review of Tigerland (2000) by Cari M — 23 Jan 2004
This is by far my most fave Colin Farrell film. Its hard to believe it was his first real film :) its a very well done movie about a army training camp. Heres a quote that always makes me kinda cry.
Cantwell:*looks at the moon* Don't it strike you that thats the same moon thats shinin down, and its shinin down on us here and its shinin down on that little girl whos my wife. And its the same moon thats gonna be shinin when they send us to war. The same moon thats shinin on those poor boys getting themselves shot at. It don't strike you what that means? How each of us is a little of everything, and everythings is shit. And I know that back home the preacher be talken about right and wrong.About the Lord and God and Jesus. But you know? if the Lord or God or Jesus be standin here right now. He'd say "Cantwell you forget about all these promises, you forget about what anybody say. And you forget all them big Sunday fancy ideas thing they tell you. You just forget everthing they tell you. You just look up there" did you ever see such a moon?
