''You'll come to see that a man learns nothing from winning. The act of losing, however, can elicit great wisdom. Not least of which is, uh... how much more enjoyable it is to win. It's inevitable to lose now and again. The trick is not to make a habit of it.''

"Thanks a million, Maximilian."

" Director: Ridley Scott His 16th Movie My 21st movie watched from the director The cast does a decent job in what seems like an attempt at a romantic comedy, but doesn't really hit that mark or in any other area. It's certainly not a bad movie, but filled with tropes and amateur writing. Ridley Scott tried something out of his wheelhouse here, but didn't work. Also really tough to root for a rich white man who turned into richer asshole who acquires a French chateau with no effort and feel"
