  1. The best comedies are the ones that are also deep and Life had many deep moments like, the prisoners escaping reality in Ray's Boom Boom Room, Claude in the 1970s looking at world he doesn't recognize because he's been on the jail property for 40 years and sees an old man staring back at him in the reflection of a car window & this heartbreaking scene of Biscuit choosing death because he feels he can no longer function outside of prisoner & his family wouldn't accept who he's become during his incarceration. What really gets me everytime in this scene is how Hoppin Bob had him in his sights and just couldn't pull the trigger leaving the guard in the tower to shoot and kill him. I have no idea how this movie was mostly panned by critics, which is why I never take critic reviews and Rotten Tomatoes scores seriously

  4. This scene is deep on so many levels. First you have the institutionalized factor of biscuit and he sees the prison as his home and then you have the LGBTQ part where he knows he won’t be accepted when he gets out to his own family nonetheless. Theres another element that some often miss which is the community aspect of hoppin Bob and the warden. As cruel and mean as they are they still deep down have a heart and care about these guys but the guard in the tower has no connection to them at all and just sees them as convicts so he has no issue with pulling the trigger. This is so deep and it’s perfectly display and analogous to real life prisons and the guards at auscwitz and guards in the tower. They aren’t allowed near the prisoners so they don’t build any connections to them emotionally.

  5. It's understandable him feeling that way. My younger brother spent a lot of time in an out of prison and he passed away in 2020 but after he passed away my older brother told me about a conversation that he had with my younger brother and he said that he realized that my younger brother had spent so much time imprisoned that That's where he felt comfortable He told me after my younger brother got out the second time he had told my older brother that he wanted to go back I didn't realize then how institutionalized my brother had become and that's kind of what happened with biscuit he was institutionalized. Breaksmy heart my brother is gone I miss him a lot And he was only 34 years old But he couldn't escape his addictions. His demons.
