25th Hour Monologue

This was the monologue scene I was talking about earlier from 25th Hour (Spike Lee, 2002). It's a powerful scene when you see the rest of the film and I personally think it's Spike Lee's best film. Though it doesn't really have anything to do with our particular theme of wandering and wondering, I think the scene came to my mind earlier because the protagonist of 25th Hour (Edward Norton) feels detached and isolated from the city; much like our prospective protagonist. Additionally, the city itself is of major importance in the film (thematically), as it will be in ours. I think the lighting in the monologue scene is terrific as well; its very cinematic and adds to this feeling of isolation.
