Aqui há dias, referi neste blogue o monólogo escrito pelo Shyamalan para o seu filme Signs e interpretado pelo Mel Gibson. NIMHO, deve ser o melhor que já tive o prazer de ver e ouvir. Ou não tivesse sido ele escrito por quem foi e o Mel Gibson se ter superado a ele próprio ao interpretá-lo (o gajo quando quer consegue ser brilhante, precisa é de um realizador que saiba puxar por ele). É simplesmente fabuloso:

People break down in to two groups. When they experience something lucky, group number one sees it as more than luck, more than coincidence. They see it as a sign, evidence, that there is someone out there watching out for them. Group number two, sees it as just pure luck, a happy turn of chance. I’m sure that people in group number two are looking at those fourteen lights in a very suspicious way.
For them, the situation is a fifty-fifty: could be bad, could be good. But deep down, they feel that whatever happens, they’re on their own and that fills them with fear.
Yeah, there are those people. But there’s a whole lot of people in the group number one. When they see those fourteen lights, they’re looking at a miracle and deep down, they feel that whatever is going to happen, there will be someone there to help them and that fills them with hope.
See, what you have to ask yourself is what kind of person are you ? Are you the kind who sees signs, sees miracles ? Or do you believe that people just get lucky ?
Or look at the question this way: is it possible that there are no coincidences ?

Quem quiser, pode sacar o vídeo do monólogo.
