With much wisdom comes much sorrow. - Ecclesiastes “For the rest of the earth’s organisms, existence is relatively uncomplicated. Their lives are about three things: survival, reproduction, death-and nothing else. But we know too much to content ourselves with surviving, reproducing, dying-and nothing else. We know we are alive and know we will die. We also know we will suffer during our lives before suffering-slowly or quickly-as we draw near to death. This is the knowledge we “enjoy” as the most intelligent organisms to gush from the womb of nature. And being so, we feel shortchanged if there is nothing else for us than to survive, reproduce, and die. We want there to be more to it than that, or to think there is. This is the tragedy: Consciousness has forced us into the paradoxical position of striving to be unself-conscious of what we are-hunks of spoiling flesh on disintegrating bones.” ― Thomas Ligotti, "The Conspiracy Against the Human Race"

Awesome video. The Great Gatsby follows this same arc too. Gatsby and Nick both start the story believing lies about money, affluence, and the possibility to transition between classes, only for those beliefs to be shattered by the end. Gatsby dies still waiting on his phone call and Nick survives as the disillusioned and damaged witness to it all. It's fascinating how stories that appear so diverse on the surface are so similar structurally.

I thought the end of Godfather 2 was the icing on the cake. Michael sitting on that bench remembering the dinner just before he went off to the war. I remember thinking "Jesus Christ almost everyone at that table is dead" and then when I also realised how different Michael and even his sister is in the present I understood that, "no, everyone at that table is dead."

"I Served the King of England" is another film of class struggle and disillusionment. Except, while everyone else "drowns in their own pool", the protagonist achieves enlightenment after experiencing both arcs. It also helps that the film was based on a novel written by one of the best Czech authors of the 20th century.
