I remember arriving in Thailand as a 20 year old in 1995 who had never even set foot outside of the UK before. It was a wild experience, not from the girl bars / drinking etc, but just the whole experience of a new world to me. I remember leaving Heathrow in the middle of a cold winter and being stuck on plane for 12 hours, to then step outside Don Mueang International Airport and experience the heat and smells of Bangkok hit me right in the face. I was absolutely captivated, the strange writing on the signs and buildings, monks going about their business and stray dogs everywhere, often in gangs. I boarded a train to head to Khaosan road, but from being a cheap traveler I went for standard class and stood the whole way. A big pale, sweaty ginger kid from the UK, made me someone to stare at and receive many smiles, as I stood and listened to the chilli peppers on my Sony Walkman cassette player.
I remember the Khaosan road so well. Back then a luxury benefit of a guest house was being able to watch a 'VDO' in the half lobby / half cafe, while you munched on a banana pancake and shyly watched all these beautiful tanned girls in hippie clothes from countries like Denmark or Israel float past. There were no smartphones, ipads etc and internet was as slow as anything (a web page would take about 10 seconds to load), so you never posted your life to instagram or stared at the world through a small black box, instead you soaked it all in through your own eyes, etched forever into your own memory for only you to see.
I headed south to Krabi (very undeveloped then) and over time my white skin tanned and I dropped a bit of baby fat from eating less from the heat. I looked like a more seasoned traveller hippy type. I was gutted when I came back to the UK. I remember walking around in flip flops, smoking my last packet of krong thip cigarettes and wanting to smile at everyone, but I was again in a different land and had to slowly adjust back, but part of my heart stayed in Thailand. Now I sit as a 50 year old bloke in my own house with a family and career, but I would so love to go back in time and experience that part of my life again.
Good read that thanks. I’m 23 and just made the move to Australia. Been here 3 months and loving it. Plan do a trip around south east asia then to South America. Growing old terrifies me so I’m trying to forget about the pressures of growing old like getting married, having kids, getting a mortgage and trying to live in the moment. Travelling solo is terrifying but addictive and exciting at the same time.
@@fruitloopisback1336enjoy it as much as you can, they are where some of the best years are to be had!
@@pozzarefds Cheers mate.
This was a really beautiful read thanks
Mate you should win the Nobel Prize in literature.
Just watched this movie and man it was refreshing to see a film that’s just that ..a film …not a blockbuster, or comic book characters ..a great story/acting and man the 2000’s feel of the movie was delightful, im 30 and it just felt amazing !
It's such a good film..timeless and not many like it
so right. I DETEST this modern fad of superhero films. They sell well because theyre well established , the customer knows what theyre going to see. Why would anyone want to do something thats totally predictable. This film is like the perfect anti-superhero film - It being polar opposite to knowing what youre in for the first time you watch it.
You said it brother👍
@@TRJx86 yes indeed !
Bought this at a pawn shop in like 2010. Such a random movie and a great watch. Maybe i was just in a good headspace. Not many people have heard let alone have watched it when I've asked. But in a way I like it like that. A gem hidden away in very few peoples mind
I’ve been to Thailand 5 times already. I spent 5 days in Phi phi island this January, and on the final day of my trip I went to the balcony of my bungalow
to listen some music with a glass of Chang beer while my boyfriend was packing. Moby - Porcelain was on my playlist and it came up with no reason... I was just sitting and watching the sea and the trees, feeling the breeze of piece and happiness... eventually I felt myself as one with the nature and the universe, no words could describe that moment. Im 35 now, I was young when the movie ran, but in that moment I realized what was the message of The Beach movie. Wish I was in Thailand 20 years ago, when no iphone, no social media was existed... when people lived the moment, instead if recording it.
Well said 👏
It is still possible to live the moment. One does not have to go along with the times.
_Live in the moment instead of recording it._ Thanks for this. I'll keep it in mind!
God that made me cry
but recording it is for watching it later in life or to remember and see the moment.
"I still believe in paradise. But now at least I know it's not some place you can look for. Because it's not where you go. It's how you feel for a moment in your life when you're a part of something. And if you find that moment... It lasts forever" great movie and soundtrack
Early 90's and 2000s were the best
could people here name a few of those movies that they found especially beautiful?
Look into mind control and mk ultra, Hollywood isn’t what it always seemed to be.
@@FransGang ikr
@@TheMatkein
shutter island
Interstellar
Cloud atlas
Predestination
I just watched the movie and changed my life 🥺
cult classic of our generation. This always brings a tear to me. When life was simple back then. In a parallel universe.
so true... very nostalgic.
Actually there is not much difference between then and today. Life was not simpler back then. We already had internet and cell phones (less fancy than the modern ones of course) and the same superficiality as today.
@@Ghost-oq8fw Careful, nostalgia contains illusion... ;-)
Life was simpler back in the 1950s, no wait! Back in the 1920s, LMAO! ;-)
@@antonboludo8886 True. Back then just like today many people still suffered to pay their bills, politicians and upper class cared about themselves, and more. HOWEVER, the music that came out was a little better, the country was not as divided, AND there were much fewer terrorist attacks. sometimes I wish I was in my twenties back in the 90's.
The film epitomized what would come to represent a large part of the lives so many of us from that time would go on to live. We all fell in love with the idea of meeting a beautiful French girl, backpacking indefinitely, on a shoestring budget, in some tropical paradise with little rules and lots of tropical parties. Regretfully, the lesson that was lost upon us all probably has become all too real for many. That is, that paradise is a state of mind, not a destination frozen in time. I wonder if any of us will ever be whole again, endlessly longing to relive those carefree, formative, adventures of those youthful years. It's been 20 years now, and I actually did move to a tropical island to do my life like The Beach, and yet I still yearn for some other beach, something that probably doesn't exist. I know it doesn't. For one brief moment though, like Richard, I had it all, the beach and the dark haired French girl of my parallel universe.
daaaamn. That touched me bro. I feel exactly the same thing.
I feel the same! But I still in those traveling years, still in the deep of me looking for “the beach”.
Do you have any regrets? Would you do it again?
CS Lewis said it best: "“If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world.” Heaven on earth.
I know someone who did that. He went to Thailand and hiked through the freaking jungle there for a couple of weeks. Crazy but it worked and I am sure that is a one of a kind experience. It does make a difference to actually go places like this it's not just a state of mind.
I have felt this urge too but I am too reasonable at the moment to do anything that crazy.
Preach me master
This movie is really interesting because it basically represents the idea that we all have of how a perfect picture of paradise should look like, yet it never turns out to be exactly that way. Turns out there’s always a reality check along the way. But reflecting on life and having done some backpacking myself, I still look back with much gratitude and happiness to my travels. It may never be the picture you painted in your head, but that’s actually the fun about it, you never know how it will go !
Thanks for your love and support my friend.🌻🌴 I'm blown away by the love from you'll.💕 fans like you are the reason we keep moving.❤️ God bless you
Yes, the same could be said thousands of years ago as well.
Personally I liked this movie because the characters are the backpacker type of people during the time when the Internet was starting. Ten years before that it was the same type of people but no internet. Today it is the same type of people but they are glued to their smartphones, LOL.
Does anybody else feel there was something ephemerally different and special about the late 1990s? The coming millenium, movies like The Beach, the first season of Survivor, the internet and what it was back then, and just the general atmosphere and culture, it's hard to put a finger on it but those years were special, in many ways
Id like to go back to it. But 1984 to me is a special year.
The beach was sooo secret that it was 1 mile away, and visible from the main beach.
it was so secret everyone that went was murderd
@@annaplowden6183 Reminds me of Chicago.
No actually that is not a main beach
In the movie, Leo guessed A COUPLE of Miles, dumbass. Not a Mile, dipshit.
@@MrParkerman6 lol
I feel you Mike. I did that '6 months backpacking in Asia' in 2000 and had a blast! It was the happiest time of my life! Not knowing where my love and I would be tomorrow was the sweetest way to live. We really lived for the moment. My love died a few tears back and I am broken. Those times linger and I occasionally go back there to feel the magic.
Oh my goodness. I am sorry that she passed away.
I hope you find happiness in remembering your magical time together
Stay strong ❤
So sorry for your loss man.
Eat crow
Just watched this movie randomly, never heard of it before and I have to admit that it was the first time in months… maybe in years that I felt genuine happiness. The scene when they get to the beach and the Moby song is playing. Pure full body ecstasy and euphoria. I needed this.
I did my first backpacking trip when was 19. I'm 29 now and it changed my life forever. I knew from that point on I wanted to see the world and explore it as much as I could. This film reminded me so much of that feeling I had during my early years on the road, and my desire to always be living life to the full, seeing new things, dating beautiful foreign women, partying and such. It really captures that sense of excitement and fun that all young people feel when they pack up their bags and head abroad.
I guess reality hits you eventually and you start to realise you can't do it forever. This film reminded me so much of that coming-of-age moment I had where I realised it is those around you that make you truly happy, but goddamn were those good times. Nothing but fun, drinking, women and a sense that the world can't tie you down.
I'll never let it go, and am even settling in Asia in the next year or two, but I'm doing it with my beautiful long term girlfriend and a stable career. I'll never let that feeling of wonder truly go.
Beautiful comment. I can't tell you how much I relate. I also will never let the childlike wonder go.
I’m 25, I remember seeing this movies as a child and seeing it now makes me feel so nostalgic about the 2000’s.
Time really flies by
Exactly! I’m 28 and seeing this trailer opened a floodgate of nostalgia. What a beautiful, simpler time.
im 28 and this movie this trailer makes me cry ;((((((( like how have i missed memory lane for this long ^-^ makes me feel old
I'm 26 and I remember having seen that movie with my brother when I was a kid too but I totally forgot it even existed! My brother rediscovered it and we watched it together yesterday, felt like going back to simpler times.
@@thelewis2898 the late 90’s and early 00’s were a magical time, i would give anything to go back just for a day or two
This movie transfers for me the feeling of longing for paradise on earth. It brings me to tears.
Best line of the movie, desire is desire after all, it does not matter where you are. You can not control it.
You can control it if you know where it comes from
@@whatfffd it seems you know where it come from and already have controlled it
“Out of sight, truly is out of mind.”
No. Its: "Desire is Desire. Wherever you go. The sun will not bleach it nor the tide wash it away."
"Desire is Desire. Wherever you go. The sun will not bleach it nor the tide wash it away."- Richard
Such an underrated movie.
Lese grad den Roman wieder.
I saw this movie without watching the trailer and I’m so glad that I did, the trailer pretty much gave the whole story away. If they had just sold it as a getaway paradise movie trust me people would’ve been more mind blown, I was caught off guard by it.
i agree with you it didnt reveal all tho
There is a very specific feeling generated by watching this movie that no other movie out there can reproduce.
I agree...and that is why so many have made the journey Koh Phi Phi Leh so see Maya Bay in person. Magical
I'm still trying to accept that he is now old: ')
21 years old, its old enough to get drunk.
he’s only 46
Yeah,me too..
You're stuck ahead of them. He surrounds himself with people of a certain age and things he bought in his twenties
Oh good grief, what an ignorant comment. You're headed for "old" too. And when you get where he is, you'll realize how young it is.
i never wanted this movie to get old as it was a classic for its day and still is
Had a similar experience like this when me and my family went to Mexico in 2006. We were walking up this mountain for a while and once we got to the top.. in one split second everything turned blue. A beautiful lagoon on the other side ... I’ll never forget how mesmerized I was. Laguna De Chapala in Jalisco, Mexico is a sight to see ... not to mention the women there are insanely beautiful
@Josh from Bakersfield In Chapala?
I just bought that place. I'm building a water park and resort. Gonna run a few thou people in their a week. Eventually I'll develop some condos on the beach for the mega Rich. No riff raff allowed.
I loved Chapala when I had a day trip there at 8 years old. Always wanted to go back. I don’t remember the lake’s beauty standing out to me but I think I probably had one of the best meals there in my life. These indigenous women in a hut cooking tortillas on a fire…so memorable and delicious
@@chanellee9762 yes I remember eating 12 tacos I was full after 5 but wanted to keep going cuz they were so good. The lake looks grey most of the time but when we went for some reason it looked bright blue.
There were murder too
This movie is criminally underated
I agree...In my top 5 best movies of all time
@@KardosoMedia what are the other 4?
I’ve read the book is it as good?
No one talks about this movie but it’s so good
I do now. We do 🦾
I heard the island was ruined irl after the movie was finished and nothing was repaired nor paid to help fix it, oof
I went there yesterday. That's what brought me back to the trailer of this "meh" film. The beach and immediently surrounding water is closed for coral restoration
꧁꧂ the water is closed and stuff but the beach is open I went there a while ago it’s all they talk about is this movie
no I've visited the island before its beautiful
I was there a year or two after the movie was shot. I said to my tour guide, "this is the beach Hollywood ruined?" He was adamant that they had improved the beach.
Too many tourists , they had to close it .
i watched this movie again after came from Maya Bay and i can confirm, its paradise!
This movie makes me miss Thailand too damned much. As of 2021, this makes me miss traveling even more.
I agree,,,longing to visit Koh Phi Phi Leh
I just came back from Phuket and this Island, you can visit but swimming is prohibited, so that the nature can recover.
@@lorenzovonmatterhorn3961 Good! Or dii mak as they say. That beautiful beach needs all the recovery it can get and cant let humans ruin it like before, like the movie points out. Good on the thai gov't for doing something about it.
@@rstevens1836 agree but then they should stop selling those expensive Tickets or inform before hand 😂
The actual beach it's filmed on, Maya Beach in Thailand is now closed for conservation purposes due to the insane number of tourists flooding there.
It's not unusual. Please when traveling, remain mindful. It's a place you won't have to see again once you leave but what you left remains there.
It was in the Philippines the movie lied about it and the owner of the island in the palawan Philippines was very upset, they just said it was in thailand so fans couldn't disturb them.
@@leighowey8634 You know nothing and you believe everything.
I lived 5 years in Thailand (2005-2010), and i´ve been in this beach
(Maya Bay) at least 10 times and is exactly the same as in the movie, the only difference is that the movie made it look like is fully surrounded by rocks, like a Lagoon...And in real life it´s not fully surrounded by the rocks, it has an opening to the ocean, but the beach is exactly the same.
I also know basically every local that live in phi phi island, wich worked as guides for cast and team of the movie, they took photos with the cast (Dicaprio, Tilda Swinton, Virginie Ledoyen, etc...) wich they usually share very proudly.
Actually one of the locals known as "Ricky" was Dicaprio´s personal guide...He is a very good friend of mine and i still go visit him and his family everytime i go to Phi Phi.
I´ve been travelling around the world for 20 years and i´ve been in some other places wich also claim this beach is theirs lol... just for tourism interests.
But anyone who has been in Maya Bay has no doubt about it...sadly this has destroyed the beach as thousands of tourist visit the island every week and end up contaminated.
Advice: You should stop believing what someone tells you or quit spreading out other ppl stories unless you can see it for yourself.
@@leighowey8634 Whattttttttttttt
@@leighowey8634 Philippines ? Whatttttttt
Fun fact: Alex Garland penned the novel on which this movie is based. Garland went on to write and direct "Ex Machina" in 2014.
No wonder I absolutely chillingly adore both movies then!
An even more fun fact is that the Garland based this on his adventures in the Philippines. For the Novel he decided to set it in Thailand instead, which has led to ridiculous over-tourism there. However, if you want to see some truly spectacular landscapes you can go to the Philippines which is still relatively untouched
@@lenglain It's based on an enclosed cove in an island off El Nido. If the sea is not too rough, you can swim through a hole in the rock and find the beach that inspired the novel. Sadly, the sea was too rough on the day I was there.
I like this movie so much..the landscape, the story, the score..just remember when i was first year at college.
I was 20 when this movie came out and it spoke to me and many others. This was the greatest escape ever, I would have go there. Last time in history this was possible back in 2000, no more with all the communications.
You can get off the grid if you go to the right places.
Wow, this is 20 years old already
Seeing Leo look this young in 2000 makes me feel old now
The soundtracks are amazing in this movie. Almost all the songs 👌
@AM Conquer and even Moby "porcelain" 👍👌
I wish I could enjoy this movie in today's imax and ultra hd format, it will be an absolute experience along with this movie's music and bgm
I remember I bought the soundtrack album in the summer of 2001 and went on a night time drive through Los Angeles. “Snakeblood” playing as I drove over the Mulholland Highway to the Pacific Ocean, “Pure Shores” when I approached the moonlighted coastline of Leo Carillo beach, “8 Ball” by Underworld as I drove down the PCH towards Santa Monica. 😎
totally
this movie makes me so happy, plus it has a killer soundtrack
Gotta love Moby!
2000 : This island is secret!
2023 : Find the next sushi bar with google maps
Unfortunately, due to high tourism and damage to natural landscape, it is no longer allowed to swim there. :(
Makes me want to play Farcry 3 again for the 10th time
21 f-cking years ago!
This trailer is literally the entire movie lol
i have to say, I have just finished reading the book, loved it and was excited to see the film. but not after the trailer, its nothing like the book!
Right??? Book was phenomenal. Movie was complete crap compared to the book. I couldn’t even finish it
Perfect Storm I believe was 2000 that was ahead of its time with all the technology it was amazing. They had a lot of good movies back 22 years ago
This movie makes me feel an uncontrollable urge to travel, to live life fully. And the fact that I can't, makes me depressed 🤡
I feel ya...But make it a goal and it you can achieve it ;)
i dont even need to watch the damn movie the trailer is dramatic enough
Pre social media, when running away and going off the grid was actually possible
miss it🙌🏾
It is possible...put your phone down and go.
Leonardo is a perfect. Handsomely perfect.
good times!
Ive stayed in that exact hotel room in Phuket.
name please
@@vinitgaikwad It's called the On On Hotel in Phuket town. I actually stayed there in 2011. Believe me when I tell you there was nothing romantical about it. Went back to Phuket in 2013 and they'd remodeled. It's nothing like it was before, it's fancy, pricey and unrecognizable from the movie now.
My Favourit Movie. The Reason why im Traveling around the World now. Next year ill be at this Beach in Thailand. Thanks for the Inspiration
I remember randomly watching this movie at my friend's place when we were both really baked and had no idea what was going on but we're enjoying the movie
Just like the people in the film baked all the time
This trailer is the funniest thing I’ve seen today.
Wow . This movie came out in ,2000 that's 22 years ago??? Damn I'm getting old
I miss 2000 best time of my life
Why have I never heard of this movie?!?! It's everything I love the beach, water and Leo 😍😍
Its been my favourite movie for 22 years ;)
It apparently is on many people's list of more disliked movies that Leo is in
Timeless film, can watch ever year and still love it, very original one of the best
Yes, it is timeless. These types of travellers existed long before the Internet and continue to exist today. The Internet and Smartphones are useful tools to add to these experiences.
I agree....lost track of how many times I've watched this. Amazing
Facts
Okay Leo... İ am falling again.
I remember watching this movie on DVD everyday many years ago
Same
Me too
I am no film expert, but this is one of the greatest i know
One of the best movies to come out in the 2000’s
Calm down mate lol
Super underrated
Maybe all would disagree, but this movie is one of the best from DiCaprio
This movie is such a vibe. A dream.
To be honest this movie is not that good. I have just watched it again after many years and can't say that it really grabbed me apart from the fact it reminded me when travel was fun and most of all an adventure. No smart phones and limited internet. A time when you went somewhere exotic after having researched it through reading instead of watching vloggers on RUclips. you went to a place like Thailand with a a picture in your head of what to expect, created by your imagination through reading books and newspaper articles. But now you know what you will experience after a few videos on RUclips. One of the downsides to the internet is that it took the adventure out if travel. It really does break my heart for some reason.
WTF
This is the movie to thank for causing overtourism in Thailand.
I'm so used to seeing Leonardo DiCaprio being in movies set in the past lol
*Underrated*
I never understood why this movie was so poorly received I think it's great
i saw this movie when I was a student. I wanted to pack my bags and go to the other side of the world immediately.
You must've misunderstood this movie hehe. It is understandable though
Reminds me of my backpacking days.. All the money now to stay in better places, just cant beat those old experiences
I swear dude, I look back and wonder
You start to enjoy the luxuries and nice hotels and such, but nothing will ever quite beat being in your early 20s with just a backpack, a few changes of clothes and a bunch of other backpackers looking to have fun.
This movie gives me that tropical Island, backpacking, and some strange vibe that I dreamt of.
Have you ever been?
@@dominysynclair No, I haven't been
But it's what I dreamt of
One of the best ending....wow movie , watched it very late at night and it made the movie even more amazing....wow movie
Movie of my life time...
Sadly maya bay is closed now 😢😢😢
Its finally opened back up with limitations on how many can visit it now ;)
@@KardosoMedia okay..I think we need prior permission from the Thai government right ?
@@Versatileabhi correct there is a fee to visit now with a limit of 300 visitors per day and no boats are allowed to enter Maya Bay to protect the coral. Swimming is also not permitted. Just less crowded beautiful views from the beach of Maya Bay ❤️
I wish i could go somewhere far and leave behind all the memories of my life without my mom
You will be a great mother! For now, Earth is our home, our Mother.
The all thing refraining you from doing that is yourself.
Embrace fear and go on your own adventure.
Watching this movie reminded me of, ' A Passage to India ':
Both movies are set in exotic locations, with absolutely stunning photography!
And both movies have no real plot to speak of.
So when I watch either of these movies, I turn the sound down, and put on some smooth jazz... 🙂
Footnote: I read that after the release of this film, the beach where it was shot in Thailand got so overrun with tourists that it actually damaged the ecosystem, and so had to be closed for a time...
“On an island that no one can get to”. Reminds me of Lost
Love this movie, gives me a certain feeling every time i watch it
I watch all of his movies
Same!!!!🥰
One of my favorite movies of all time.. I wish I can find another alike movies 🍿🍿🍿
Solarpunk
I think I'm going to write one.
I do remember that movie (especially when hearing the soundtrack goes right to it) can't believe that 22 years have past. I'm afraid if i get 80 and then I will say "can't believe how 65 have past"
🤣🤣
This trailer spoiled so many great moments of the movie
I can't believe how long ago it came out. Just when I started high school. Such an underrated movie, one of my all time favorites.
when reviewing c trailer I feel like returning to the early 2000s.
thats what makes it so special. No “advanced technology” and it seems so much more honest and pure🙌🏾
One of the best movies ever made
Just watched the movie, loved it
Leo was 26 in the 2000 but he looked like 19
danny boyle makes some really good movies!
takes me back to a happier time in my life very nostalgic
One of the songs is Touched by VAST if anybody is wondering
They should have just stayed on the First Beach to be honest. That one was nice enough, but less drama.
Thailand is the most beautiful place ever
best movie ever, so underrated
It’s just not the ‘best movie ever’ is it though
I WILL DIE THIS DAY TODAY THIS TIME.
Plot twist Wilson the Volleyball arrives just in time to save the day.
This was a great movie
This movie is so GREAT!
One of the best from Leonardo DiCaprio's .
18 when this movie came out, a better time it was in 2000.
Same :)
I've always wanted to see this and I just finished it. Loved it.
Guillaume Canet avec DiCaprio, incroyable/improbable combo 😅😂
The backpacker culture had started in the 1980s.
This continues such a culture in 1999, the age of early Internet.
The backpackers continue in 2023.
The same type people getting together and then betraying each other, but with more advanced technology.
Backpackers as we know them have been at it since the late 60s. That's how it came to be known as the hippy trail.
@@dominysynclair Yes, you are right. But I think it has become more mainstream during the late 1990s/early 2000s with the advent of the Internet.
@@dominysynclair You mean the 1960s Westphalia culture?
Hippies helped each other. Canada, USA and Mexico was that culture. It still is. Peace and Love. MJ...
They did not go to Europe, though, nor any other countries, because it was too expensive for the squatter hippies at that time.
The 1980s saw the Lonely Planet Culture. From then it became a world-wide, with expansions and economic contractions.
Still not Internet and Cell Phones, though.
Same drugs.
1990s, emergence of Internet, where this film is. Same drugs.
2000s. Low level Internet, same drugs.
2010s. Higher-level Internet.
Same people and drugs.
More advanced smatphones.
2020s. Same thing, more advanced smartphones.
Same drugs.
Peace and Love from 2023!
@@antonboludo8886 I'm not familiar with the term "Westphalia culture". I'm not sure I agree with your assessment of hippie culture.
@@dominysynclair I see. It is more of a rucksack culture. This type of mentality is alive and well in 2023.
No judging. No drugs. Just join other like-minded travellers for nice experiences.
i feel like they should've stuck closer to the book plot
Me too....but the book was not exactly a blockbuster movie plot. Richard wasn't the stud he was in the movie and the moral was that these young Europeans and Americans were ruining the local culture in order to find somewhere "new and untouched" then getting bored with it when it got too 'western'
@@MikeRoberts1964 very true.
