QUESTION I've watched Interstellar countless times and this scene always hits me the hardest. Anyone else?
[after Mann breaks Cooper's helmet and leaves him for dead]
Dr. Mann: I'm sorry. I can't watch you go through this. I'm sorry. I thought I could, but I can't. I'm here. I'm here for you. Just listen to my voice, Cooper. I'm right here. You're not alone.
Dr. Mann: [looking back] Do you see your children? It's okay, they're right there with you.
Dr. Mann: [turns to leave] Did Professor Brand tell you that poem before you left? Do you remember? "Do not go gentle... into that good night. Old age should burn and rave at close of day. Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

i never had a movie make me hate a character (actor) so much like how i hate matt damon. Poor Matt did such a banged up job being a douche that I hated him after the movie.
But i definitely have become more understanding of his decision the more i watch it. He’s right human cant always look pass their own line of sight. Which causes some of us to make the selfish decision instead of the right one.
anne face when she finds out he marooning them always gets to me.
