Silver Linings Playbook

“Silver lining” es la pequeña cosa buena en lo malo, lo rescatable, el punto blanco del ying yang. Literalmente, el rayo de luz que escapa a través de una nube con cara de tormenta. Silver Linings Playbook, traducida en nuestra región como “Juegos del Destino” es la única película desde Closer, que me maravilla de esta manera. Con un guión adaptado del libro Silver Linings Playbook de Mathew Quick esta película sorprende con sus afirmaciones de que los finales felices no existen, porque no vivimos en un cuento de hadas. La vida, la humanidad; es pinche y cruel, pero eso no quita que tenga “silver linings” todo el tiempo, y que nuestro único trabajo sea darnos cuenta de ellos.

 

Las mejores “quotes” del libro:

“I don't want to stay in the bad place, where no one believes in silver linings or love or happy endings.”

“Life is not a PG feel-good movie. Real life often ends badly. Literature tries to document this reality, while showing us it is still possible for us to endure nobly.”

“If clouds are blocking the sun, there will always be a silver lining that reminds me to keep on trying.”

Life is hard, and children have to be told how hard life can be…So they will be sympathetic to others. So they will understand that some people have it harder than they do and that a trip through this world can be a wildly different experience, depending on what chemicals are raging through one’s mind.”

“I still love you in my own fucked-up way.”

“It hurts to look at the clouds, but it also helps, like most things that cause pain.”

“I am practicing being kind over being right.”

“Let me tell ya. You gotta pay attention to signs. When life reaches out with a moment like this it's a sin if you don't reach back... I'm telling you.”

“life is random and fucked-up and arbitrary, until you find someone who can make sense of it all for you— if only temporarily.”

“The only way to beat my crazy was by doing something even crazier. Thank you. I love you. I knew it from the moment I saw you. I'm sorry it took me so long to catch up.”

“You need to know it's your actions that will make you a good person, not desire.”

“Most people lose the ability to see silver linings even though they are always there above us almost every day.”

“I think all it really takes for different people to get along is a common rooting interest and a few beers.”

“I need you so fucking bad.”

“There will always be a part of me that is dirty and sloppy, but I like that, just like all the other parts of myself.”

 

-          Mathew Quick, The Silver Linings Playbook

 

Las mejores “quotes” de la película:

Tiffany: I opened up to you, and you judged me.

Tiffany: I was a slut. There will always be a part of me that is dirty and sloppy, but I like that, just like all the other parts of myself. I can forgive. Can you say the same for yourself, fucker? Can you forgive? Are you capable of that?

Tiffany: I do this! Time after time after time! I do all this shit for other people! And then I wake up and I'm empty! I have nothing!

Pat Sr.: Yeah have Ernest Hemingway calls us and apologize to us too.

Pat Sr.: Have some respect for what I do.

Tiffany: Humanity is just nasty and there's no silver lining.

Pat: The world will break your heart ten ways to Sunday. That's guaranteed. I can't begin to explain that. Or the craziness inside myself and everyone else. But guess what? Sunday's my favorite day again. I think of what everyone did for me, and I feel like a very lucky guy.
