King Kong2005
Jimmy:
[Referring to "Heart of Darkness"] Why does Marlow keep going up the river? Why doesn't he turn back?
Hayes:
There's a part of him that wants to Jimmy. A part deep inside himself that sounds a warning. But there's another part that needs to know. To defeat the thing which makes him afraid. "We could not understand because we were too far and could not remember because we were traveling in the night of first ages of those ages that are gone leaving hardly a sign, and no memories. We are accustomed to look upon the shackled form of a conquered monster, but there, there you could look at a thing monstrous and free."
Jimmy:
It's not an adventure story, is it, Mr. Hayes?
Hayes:
No, Jimmy. It's not.
