Basquiat - The Prince

[marcoart73]

volevo sapere se di questa parte c'è la versione ni italiano

[Demirel32]

i too cried at the end,the movie is so inspiring this and Raging Bull are the only movies that made me cry,titanic is nothing compared to this!

[josh2josh]

The prince he speaks of here is himself. Prince = Basquiat. The Warlock that imprisons the prince is Basquiat's addiction. Warlock = Addiction. The crown the prince wore was Basquiat's art, his spirit, and his beauty. Crown = Basquiat's Art. Think of that and watch it again.

@josh2josh The warlock is not addiction, the warlock is the power structure that expolited him and forced him to keep making art so they could make money off him. It represents the promotoers, brokers, and gallery owners, not addiction. It represents the society that he hated, that he mocked, and made him so uneasy with being a "star". Talking about the real life Basquiat, that is what it means. The movie Basquait is not quite accurate, yet well played.

Addiction has nothing to do with this.

@youngbuck189 I may have been putting my own interpretation/experience on the warlock. I appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for that.

This makes me want to cry. That something could be so beautiful it would make you grab at the air.

@djmrparker I know...I feel the same way. I always cry at this scene.

[vintagedeath]

this ending makes me cry. every time. i cant explain it. this is the most amazing movie ever. there is a god. this ending is everything to me.

[panamanubian]

@vintagedeath He´s the reason why I got into art school and now I discover that I´m a artist to. May God bless the spitrit of Baskiat, for ever, only God and those who understang the spirit of Baskiat can understand his art. his art will live for ever as well as his spirit.

[tweenboxyeah]

@panamanubian you´re an artist, but you can´t spell Basquiat right?

[panamanubian]

@tweenboxyeah I wish you death!

[tweenboxyeah]

@panamanubian thanks, I´ll keep that in mind!

[panamanubian]

@vintagedeath "Benny fuck Hawaii, let's go to ireland, we'll stop in every bar and have a drink...." [blank screen]

[basquiat dies, john cale's Hallelujah plays. a single tear crawls down my face]

[VisionofOrion]

Great ending and metaphoric since Basquiat is just casually walking oblivious as to one of his friends struggling with three oversized shopping bags.

Voy a aplicar esa Historia y voy a decir que yo la invente (deaaA) =)

[elsoloho]

"benni ,scheiß auf hawaii, wir gehen nach irland, und in jeder bar wird einer getrunken!"  RIP

[snowmman2]

man, if you could have sat there in that bar in Derry, with my Dad, and feel the history coming thru the wood into your bones.

We just had tea actually :) That was a good afternoon with my dad. Walking thru Derry.
