世界最速のインディアン

1960年代、ニュージーランドの南端に位置する田舎町インバーカーギルとアメリカユタ州が舞台。といっても大半がアメリカが舞台になります。ニュージーこてこての訛りを期待してました。主演のアンソニーホプキンスはイギリス出身ですがアメリカの映画にでまくっているし、 インバーカーギルの地元の人々もニュージーの訛りが、ほぼありません。アメリカの俳優がニュージーランド人を演じているのには違和感がありまくりで、関西アクセントを埼玉県民がまねているようなこれじゃない感があります。消化不良です。

しかし心を揺さぶるセリフが、いくつかあり小生、元気をいただいたのでもありました。
以下のセリフです。
夢を追いかけないなら、植物人間になったほうがいい。（If you don't follow through on your dreams, you might as well be a vegetable.）
行きたいときに行かないと、気がついたらいなくなっている。（If you don't go when you wanna go when you do go, you'll find you're gone. ）
バイクで5分間は、人によっては一生のうちで生きている時間よりも長くなる。（You live more in 5 minutes on a bike like this going flat out than some people live in a lifetime. ）
危険は人生のスパイスだ。たまには危険を冒してみることも必要だろ？それが人生を価値あるものにするんだ（You know, danger is the spice of life and you've got to take a risk every now and again haven't you, son? You know that's what makes life worthwhile.）

以上、おっさんである今、ここ数年人生守りに入ってますが、どこか生きている感じがしない。スパイスを買いにこれからスーパーに言って来ます！
