<Scent of a Woman> it is really full of human touch.Frank's(Al Pacino)speech has strong power and philosophy. Here are two parts of his speech.
I'll show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask, I'd
show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too fuck in' blind, if I were the
man I was five years ago, I'd take a flame thrower to this place! Out of order?
Who the hell do you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know? There
was a time I could see, and I have seen, boys like these, younger than these,
their arms torn out, their legs ripped off, but there is nothin' like the sight
of an amputated spirit. There is no prosthetic for that, you think you're merely
sendin' this splendid foot solider back home to Oregen with his tail between his
legs, but I say you're executin' his soul! And why? Because he is not a Baird
man. Baird men, you hurt this boy, you're gonna be Baird bums, the lot of you.
And Harry, Jimmy, and Trent, wherever you are out there, fuck you too!
Frank: I'm not finished. As I came in here, I heard those words: cradle of
leadership. Well, when the bough breaks, the cradle will fall, and it has fallen
here, it has fallen. Makers of men, creators of leaders, be careful what kind of
leaders you're producin' here. I don't know if Charlie's silence here today is
right or wrong, I'm not a judge or jury, but I can tell you this: he won't sell
anybody out to buy his future! And that my friends is called integrity, that's
called courage. Now, that's the stuff leaders should be made of. Now I have come
to crossroads in my life, I always knew what the right path was. Without
exception, I knew, but I never took it, you know why, it was too damn hard. Now
here's Charlie, he's come to the crossroads, he has chosen a path. It's the
right path, it's a path made of principle that leads to character. Let him
continue on his journey. You hold this boy's future in your hands, committee,
it's a valuable future, believe me. Don't destroy it, protect it. Embrace it.
It's gonna make you proud one day, I promise you.
