The Bourne Identity

The Bourne Identity (2002)

Jason Bourne:
Who has a safety deposit box full of money and six passports and a gun? Who has a bank account number in their hip? I come in here, and the first thing I’m doing is I’m catching the sightlines and looking for an exit.
Marie:
I see the exit sign, too. I’m not worried. I mean, you were shot. People do all kinds of weird and amazing stuff when they are scared.
Jason Bourne:
I can tell you the license plate numbers of all six cars outside. I can tell you that our waitress is left-handed and the guy sitting up at the counter weighs two hundred fifteen pounds and knows how to handle himself. I know the best place to look for a gun is the cab or the gray truck outside, and at this altitude, I can run flat out for a half mile before my hands start shaking. Now why would I know that? How can I know that and not know who I am?

The Prestige

The Prestige (2006)

Cutter:
Every great magic trick consists of three parts or acts. The first part is called ”The Pledge”. The magician shows you something ordinary: a deck of cards, a bird or a man. He shows you this object. Perhaps he asks you to inspect it to see if it is indeed real, unaltered, normal. But of course… it probably isn’t. The second act is called ”The Turn”. The magician takes the ordinary something and makes it do something extraordinary. Now you’re looking for the secret… but you won’t find it, because of course you’re not really looking. You don’t really want to know. You want to be fooled. But you wouldn’t clap yet. Because making something disappear isn’t enough; you have to bring it back. That’s why every magic trick has a third act, the hardest part, the part we call ”The Prestige”.”

Run All Night

Run All Night (2015)

Jimmy Conlon:
I’ve done terrible things in my life. Things for which I can never be forgiven. I betrayed friends, turned my back on the ones closest to me. I’ve always known that my sins would eventually catch up to me. No sin goes unpunished in this life. Your life doesn’t flash before your eyes when you are dying. That’s bullshit. It’s your regrets that haunt you in your final moments. Everything you’ve failed to be. Everyone you let down. Everything you’d go back and change, if only you had more time.
