You must promise me that you’ll survive. That you won’t give up, no matter what happens. No matter how hopeless. Promise me now, Rose. And never let go of that promise.
TITANIC (1997) dir. James Cameron
What I need to survive is not Gale’s fire, kindled with rage and hatred. I have plenty of fire myself. What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again.And only Peeta can give me that. So after, when he whispers, “You love me. Real or not real?” I tell him, “Real.”
MOCKINGJAY PART 2 (2015)
dir. Francis Lawrence, adapted from the novel Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, #3) by Suzanne Collins
You have not been good to her. You have all treated her like shit to steal back a fortune that you lost, and that she deserves. You’re a pack of vultures at the feast! Knives out, beaks bloody!
