Da Série Grandes Diálogos do Cinema - Parte V

O filme é o Beleza Americana (American Beauty), vencedor de 5 Oscars, e este é o que considero o melhor diálogo do filme.

LESTER
Is that what we smoked last night?

RICKY
This is all I ever smoke.

LESTER
How much?

RICKY
Two grand.


LESTER
Jesus. Things have changed since 1973.

RICKY
You don't have to pay now. I know you're good for it.

A beat.

LESTER
Thanks.

RICKY
(hands him a bag)

There's a card in there with my beeper number, call me anytime day or night. And I only accept cash.

LESTER
(looks around room)

Well, now I know how you can afford all this equipment. When I was your age, I flipped burgers all summer just to be able to buy an eight track.

RICKY
That sucks.

LESTER
No actually, it was great. All I did was party and get laid. (smiles) I had my whole life ahead of me...

RICKY
My dad thinks I pay for all this with catering jobs. (off Lester's look)
Never underestimate the power of denial.

Lester smiles. This kid's cool.

Simplesmente genial!
