[영화] Act of Valor

시험공부를 뒤로 하고 잠시 머리를 식히기 위해 본 영화, 액트 오브 밸러.
미국의 특수부대 이야기를 담은 영화이다.

화려한 액션도 좋지만, 군인이란 어떤 존재인가? 라는 것에 대해 다시한번 생각해 볼 수 있는 기회를 주는 영화.
군인, 그리고 그들의 가족.

비록 3년이라는 짧은 시간 동안 군생활을 했지만, 아직도 군대에 있는 친구들이 많다.
오늘은 그 친구들에게 전화를 한 통씩 해 봐야겠다.

마지막에 감동적이었던 인디언 추장 티쿰세의 시.

With that I give you Tecumseh

So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart.  Trouble no one about their religion;respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours.  Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life.  Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people.  Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide.

Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none.

When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living.  If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision.

When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.
