RE: ADSactly Entertainment - Lessons From Movies #12

in #art6 years ago

I'm a big fan that kind of movies with Italian mafia.

It came from my dad, whose best movie is Godfather.

He watched every part of it for like 20 times.

And Goodfellas must be one of the best in that genre for sure.

It is up there with Godfather, Casino, The heat, etc.

My personal favourite is actually Casino.

I really liked it.

It shows how you can be high at one moment, and fall down a second later.

The problem in life and on Steem is that people want instant gratification, they want to skip steps and be at the top as fast as possible

I really like how you connected this with Steem.

I can agree that problem with people is that they want something in the beginning.

They don't understand they have work to get something.

The problem is with their parents.

If you give a child everything he wants when he's young, he's going to be used to getting it.

That way, he's not going to fight to get something.

Sort:  

Those are all great movies, Casino is one of the best forsure! You should check out "A Bronx Tale", it is another great Italian Mafia movie.

I actually like "Casino" a lot too even if I think that my favorite is still "Goodfellas" even if I'm attracted to the gambling lifestyle. I'm working on a post about Casino as we speak, it will probably come out in about two weeks, spoilers alert.

Yeah, instant gratification can be very destructive, but we can always improve ourselves.
