the great game → the reichenbach fall

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (2011)
Dir. David Fincher

If you touch me I’ll more than alarm you.

The world has transformed to flame and smoke. Burning branches crack from trees and fall in showers of sparks at my feet. All I can do is follow the others, the rabbits and deer and I even spot a wild dog pack shooting through the woods. I trust their sense of direction because their instincts are sharper than mine. But they are much faster, flying through the underbrush so gracefully as my boots catch on roots and fallen tree limbs, that there’s no way I can keep apace with them.

When a great man became a good one.
