Sci-Fi Wisdom of the Week



"John Connor gave me a picture of you once. I didn't know why at the time. It was very old - torn, faded. You were young like you are now. You seemed just a little sad. I used to always wonder what you were thinking at that moment. I memorized every line, every curve. I came across time for you Sarah. I love you; I always have."

 - The Terminator (1984)
(full review coming tomorrow, as the Cameron Curriculum continues...)

  2. That moment in the film exemplified the kind of emotional power Cameron could inject into his films. It's a very vulnerable moment- very moving.

    I can hear Michael Bien saying those words. Very tender.

  3. Hello, my friends!

    Hope you enjoy the Terminator review, PDXWiz, I've got it posted now.

    And SFF: You are so right about the kind of emotional power Cameron brings to a narrative. Very tender, very sweet, no doubt about it.

    All my best to you both,
