Seven (Se7en) - Bar Scene

[MrMaldoror666]

Oh no, I'm not an optimist--in fact, by and large, what Somerset is saying to Mills here is true (and Mills really needed to hear it, not that that would have prepared him for wifey's head chopped off at all.) All I'm saying is that this not the last word. If there were an afterword to Seven, God help us all, there would be at the very least someone around to give Mills his medication, help him, maybe one day even restore him to normal life. That's my point--people like that are around too.

[texasB666]

@MrMaldoror666 Agreed ;)

[texasB666]

In the end, Somerset was right...

[MrMaldoror666]

@texasB666 Not really. Somerset is a particular species of intellectual who makes disillusion a religion. He confirms everything he's saying while denying it, as Mills points out. There are people everyday who do make a difference, albeit small ones, but the small ones make the world. Even if John Doe had won as in the film, the good things would still occur.

[texasB666]

@MrMaldoror666 Offcourse. I was talkin' about the movie, but in this life/reality good things happen often :) There is a state of a Ying and Yang, we just have to find a balance. Ever heard of the term "naive realism"? I believe its been invented by the thoughts of Plato. He said that nothing in this life is sure, which implies that everything we see is just gamble. Perhaps i'm going off track here on a Se7en vid :D, but yes, i agree with you: Good things can and will happen.

@chaddyboyalwayswins DISGUSTIN' MOVIE with gross talk

[JimmySteller]

Mills' final statement says it all. At first, he repeatedly insists that he does not agree with Somerset's analysis of their society, but with every denial his confidence wanes. Finally he admits that he cannot agree. Because how could one stay hopeful and optimistic if you think like Somerset does? You just can't cope with that kind of thinking. Which gives the ending of the film all the more impact.

@JimmySteller you are so right and observant, well said

[sotdsotd1]

One of the standout scenes to me. I think this scene above the others captures what's at the heart of this film. Beyond it being an incredible crime film and definitely my favorite serial killer film, this movie is an examination and study of faith. Throughout the film, we see Mills and Somerset's contrasting perceptions of faith challenged. By the end of the film the two switch places. Mills, who was full of hope and optimism, became broken, but Somerset began to find hope again.

pretty much a summation of america in the past 30 years

[christophotographic]

@thebleakaffinity I think anyone can relate to this, regardless of their nationality :)

[thunderbear78]

One of my all time favorite scenes in any movie.

[cestherrun]

Great scene! Ya gotta love Pitts character...so naive and green.

[friksten]

The best movie scene I've ever seen in a a movie. Morgan Freeman is an example, at least acting...

[southport97]

AWwww c'mon, what's in the box.

[majesticmaniac]

I wanna say that to somebody, someday " I disagree with you, i do not agree with you " with that much confidence in his face...

they are drinking alcohol or water?trying to escape from something? feeble nature?

[thisisrumorcontrol]

My favorite line...."People don't want a champion, they want to eat cheeseburgers, play the lotto, and watch television.

[mirelabeg]

the fact it is : people are tired and scared to believe in something betta.. bred embodies the youth's persuasiveness whichs maybe lost and that's why this scene is a great lesson

[Aristo07]

Great, my favorite scene!, From Argentina, Thanks Very much!!

[wowdanalise]

Morgan Freeman's voice is like sweet milk straight from the lull you to sleep tit.

[shawreport]

I love the "love costs" monologue.

[Jambient]

Masterpiece ...! Crucial scene.

[Stardusk]

@Jambient Yes, this is an amazing scene. Truly epic!

[Jambient]

@Stardusk Glad u agree! There's so much more to this movie than just the horror.

[bhattmagandhi]

sublime, everytime i watch this. just, sublime.

[ssooccoo]

great scene and great dialogue, one of the best ever (totally underrrated, i agree)

[LampoonedHerd]

@EatSleepPillage:

Ditto amigo. [as a side: "tenacious outlooks" and "timorous courage" both being oxymoronic by design of each individual "by choice"; characteristic of what may be known as Living-Paradox [by choice [sic]]

[EatSleepPillage]

I love this scene, there's so much to it. This is where the very argument of the film becomes clear with Morgan Freeman's weary, disaffected view that the world is essentially a crappy place and Brad Pitt's hopeful, tenacious outlook standing in contrast. In this context, the way the movie ended, with Pitt's character finally broken, was very bleak. Quality film nonetheless.

[hhead19]

damn bro!! thanks man ive been lookin for this.

i thought i was the only one who really appreciated this scene! I think it's the deepest scene and script of the movie, along with the john doe scene near the end.

underrated. true. i was awestruck at morgan's words.
