O Rust Cohle και ο τρόπος με τον όποιο τον υποδύθηκε ο Μάθιου Μακόναχι είναι ένας ρόλος που θα μείνει στην ιστορία.
Οι συνεχόμενες αναλύσεις του για τη ζωή, τον θάνατο, τη θρησκεία και την καθημερινότητα είναι βουτηγμένες στο πεσιμισμό και δείχνουν έναν άνθρωπο που μέσα από τη μαυρίλα που έχει βιώσει αναγνωρίζει ότι η αγωνιώδης προσπάθεια να βρούμε ένα νόημα στην ύπαρξη μας δεν θα φέρει ποτέ αποτέλεσμα. Καλύτερα να συμβιβαστούμε λοιπόν και ζήσουμε τη στιγμή.
Μαζέψαμε (με τη βοήθεια του IGN) 13 ατάκες του Rust Cohle που έχουν γίνει ήδη κλασικές. Σας τις παρουσιάζουμε χωρίς μετάφραση που θα αλλοίωνε τα χαρακτηριστικά τους.
“It’s all one ghetto, man. A giant gutter in outer space.”
“I think human consciousness, is a tragic misstep in evolution. We became too self-aware, nature created an aspect of nature separate from itself, we are creatures that should not exist by natural law. We are things that labor under the illusion of having a self; an accretion of sensory, experience and feeling, programmed with total assurance that we are each somebody, when in fact everybody is nobody. Maybe the honorable thing for our species to do is deny our programming, stop reproducing, walk hand in hand into extinction, one last midnight, brothers and sisters opting out of a raw deal.”
“If the only thing keeping a person decent is the expectation of divine reward then, brother, that person is a piece of s***. And I’d like to get as many of them out in the open as possible. You gotta get together and tell yourself stories that violate every law of the universe just to get through the goddamn day? What’s that say about your reality?”
“Back then, the visions…most of the time I was convinced that I’d lost it. But there were other times, I thought I was main-lining the secret truth of the universe.”
“The world needs bad men. We keep the other bad men from the door.”
“This place is like somebody’s memory of a town, and the memory is fading. It’s like there was never anything here but jungle.”
“The newspapers are gonna be tough on you. And prison is very, very hard on people who hurt kids. If you get the opportunity, you should kill yourself.”
“Death created time to grow the things that it would kill.”
“To realize that all your life—you know, all your love, all your hate, all your memory, all your pain—it was all the same thing. It was all the same dream. A dream that you had inside a locked room. A dream about being a person. And like a lot of dreams there’s a monster at the end of it.”
“Fuck, I don’t want to know anything anymore. This is a world where nothing is solved. Someone once told me, ‘Time is a flat circle.’ Everything we’ve ever done or will do, we’re gonna do over and over and over again. And that little boy and that little girl, they’re gonna be in that room again and again and again forever.”
“Fuck this. Fuck this world. Nice hook, Marty.”
“My life’s been a circle of violence and degradation long as I can remember. I’m ready to tie it off.”
“Well, once there was only dark. If you ask me, the light’s winning.”
