The Bounty (1984)

I must add, chancing upon this via Netflix Instant Queue was like finding a diamond in a landfill. It easily rests within my top ten list. Anthony Hopkins is Lieutenant William Bligh, a British Royal Navy officer who embarks on a voyage to Tahiti in search of breadfruit plants. He enlists his friend Fletcher Christian, played by Mel Gibson, to serve as his master's mate. Hopkins insists upon sailing through Cape Horn, much to the dismay of everyone else; Gibson -- distraught and abused to the point of a nervous breakdown -- is forced to make a difficult, life-altering decision...

A very dark historical drama with complex, sympathetic characters and some of the most gorgeous cinematography I've ever seen in a film. (No hyperbole.) The above melancholic 80s polysynth score by Vangelis is somehow perfectly befitting.

The soundtrack to "COWBOY BEBOP: KNOCKIN' ON HEAVEN'S DOOR" is fantastically varied.

Mine are from Amadeus and Almost Famous

Quote:

LET the bird of loudest lay,
On the sole Arabian tree,
Herald sad and trumpet be,
To whose sound chaste wings obey.

But thou shriking harbinger,
Foul precurrer of the fiend,
Augur of the fever's end,
To this troop come thou not near!

Here the anthem doth commence:
Love and constancy is dead;
Phoenix and the turtle fled
In a mutual flame from hence.

So between them love did shine,
That the turtle saw his right
Flaming in the phoenix' sight;
Either was the other's mine.

Threnos (eulogy):
'Beauty, truth, and rarity,
Grace in all simplicity,
Here enclosed in cinders lie.

To the phoenix and the dove,
Co-supremes and stars of love,
As chorus to their tragic scene.

Leaving no posterity:
'Twas not their infirmity,
It was married chastity.

Truth may seem, but cannot be:
Beauty brag, but 'tis not she;
Truth and beauty buried be'

.

-Highlights from my favorite poem by Shakespeare, The Phoenix and the Turtle [dove], thought by some to be about Queen Elizabeth I and Robert Devereux (2nd Earl of Essex). In any case it is allegorically about the death of an ideal love.

ASD, unofficially on online tests: 38 of 50. I don't function well. The huge impact on my life affects me more than "38". "Other" confounds and compounds, as well as expectations from others who can't see it.
