“If You Took a Picture Now, Everyone’s Just Hunched Over Their Phones….”

Bill: “Sometimes I think about throwing this (cell phone) into the ocean.”

Darby: “I think a lot of people think that. It’s not a long-term solution. We do need them.”

Bill: “Do we? I, I don’t think we do. … You look at photos of movie theaters in the 1940s, everyone’s smoking, like, everyone. Like a huge cloud of smoke above them. You see it now and you think, ‘Fuck, that’s so gross,’ but if you took a picture now, everyone’s just hunched over their phones. It’s the same thing, it’s the same addiction. It’s worse. At least with a cigarette, yeah, you’re slowly destroying your lungs, but you’re still you. With these (cell phones), it’s just, I mean, we’re losing ourselves. I hate it.”

— Dialog dari “A Murder at the End of the World.” Suka banget sama series yang cerdas dan penuh muatan ini (seperti karya Brit Marling biasanya). Dan setuju banget sama Mas Bill!
