A scene from True Lies 1994
Helen Tasker Jamie Lee Curtis

[Narrating her story with Simon during the interrogation]

I wanted to do something outrageous and it felt really good, to be needed, and to be trusted. It's just there's so much I want to do with this life and it feels like I haven't done any of it. And you know, the sand's running out of the hourglass, and I want to look back and say, [teary-eyed, points to wall] "See, I did that, that was me, I was reckless and I was wild, and I **** did it!" Frankly, I don't give a shit if you understand that or not.
