Unforgiven (1992)

Today I saw Unforgiven, a picture by Clint Eastwood, with him, Morgan Freeman and Gene Hackman. Oh god, how time quickly passes by, I was ending my school years back then, and they were so much younger, although acting like old unwise men.

The movie itself teaches one sole thing, resumed in a sentence at the end.

Deserve got nothing to do with it.

Luck has.

Yep.

Irrespective of what you do your whole life, of the good or evil you practice, you have no right to say you deserve something, or that you don't, or that you deserve it more than someone, or less.

Only luck, the Principle of Heisenberg for dummies, can act on your life, and turn it upside down, with a hearbeat.

A brutal picture, but a good one, nonetheless.
