欣赏完了《闻香识女人》（Scent of a
Woman)，最后中校的演讲可以说是整部影片的高潮。特别找出这段演讲，继续激动o(∩_∩)o...
President:Mr.Willis's testimony is not only vague,it is
unsubstantiated.The substance i was looking for, Mr.Simms was to
come from you.
Simms:I'm sorry.
President:I'm sorry too.beacuse you know what i'm going to
do,inasmuch as i can't punish Mr.Havemeyer,Mr.Potter or Mr.Jameson?
And I won't punish Mr.willis.He's the only party to this incident
who is still worthyof calling himeself a Baird man.I'm goning to
recommend to the disciplinary Committee that you be
expelled.Mr.Simms,you are a cover-up artist and you are a
liar.
Colonel:But not a snitch!
President:Excuse me?
Colonel:No,i don't think i will.
President:Mr.Slade.
Colonel:This is such a crock of shit!
President:Please watch your language,Mr.sla
de.You are in the Baird school,not a barracks.Mr.Simms,I will give
you one final opportunity speak up.
Colonel:Mr.Simms doesn't want it.He doesn't need to be labeled
'still worthy of being Barid man'.What hell is that?What is your
motto here?'Boys,inform on your classmates,save your hide,anything
short of that,we're gonna burn you at the stake?Well,gentlemen,when
the shit hits the fan,some guys run and some guys stay. here is
Charlie facing the fire,and there's George hiding in big daddy's
pocket.and what are you doing.you're gonna reward George and
destory Charlie.
President:Are you finished,Mr.slade?
Colonel:No,I'm just getting warmed up.I don't konw who went to this
place, William Howard Taft,William Jennings Bryant,William
Tell,whoever.This spirit is dead,if they ever had one,it's
gone.you're building a rat ship here,a vessel for seagoing
snitches.And if you think you're preparing these minnows for
manhood,you better think again.beacuse i say you are killing the
very spirit this institution proclaims it instills.What a shame!
What kind of a show are you guys putting on here today?I mean,the
only class in this act is sitting next to me.I'm here to tell you
this boy's soul is intact.it's non-negotiable.You konw how i
know?Someone here,and I'm not gonna say who,offered to buy it.Only
Charlie here wasn't selling.
President:sir,you're out of order.
Colonel:I show you out of order.Yon don't konw what out of order
is,Mr.Trask.I'd show you,but I'm too old,I'm too tired,too fucking
blind.if i were the man I was five years ago,i'd takea flamethrower
to this place.out of order?Who the hell you think you're talking
to?I've been around you know?There was a time I could see and i
have seen boys like these,younger than these,their arms torn
out,their legs ripped off.But there is nothing like sight of an
amputated spirit.there is no prosthetic for that You think you're
merely sending this splendid foot soldier back home to Oregon with
his tail between his legs,but I say you are executing his soul!And
why?Beacuse he's not a Barid man.Barid man,You hurt this boy.you're
gonna be Baird bums,the lot of you.And Harry,Jimmy,Trent,wherever
you are out there,fuck you too!
President:Stand down,Mr.slade.
Colonel:I'm not finished!As I came in here, I heard those
words:'Cradle of leadership.' Well,when the bough breaks,the cradle
will fall,and it has fallen here,It has fallen.Makers of
men,creators of leaders,Be careful what kind of leaders you're
producing here.i don't know if Charlie's silence here today is
right or wrong;i'm not a judge or jury.But i can tell you this:he
won't sell anybody out to buy his future!And that,my friends,is
called integrity.That's called courage.Now that's the stuff leaders
should be made of.Now i have come to the crossroads in my life.I
always knew what the right path was,Without exeception,I knew,but I
nerver took it.You know why?It was too damn hard.Now here's
Charlie.he is come to the crossroads,he has chosen a path.It's the
right path.It's a path made of principle that leads to
character.Let him continue on his journey.You hold this boy's
future in your hands,Committee.It's a valuable future.believe
me.Don't destory it,protect it,embrace it.it's gonna make you proud
one day,i promise you.
