Scene from The Rum Diary with Aaron Eckhart as Sanderson and Johnny Depp as Paul Kemp.
Sanderson: Well, I wanted to talk, because I'm looking for someone who can assimilate contradictory points of view and make them into one voice. You're a novelist, right?
Paul Kemp: Who told you that?
Oh please. Newspapers are full of gossip. I'm looking for someone who's good with words. The next day you turn up. And because I believe in good luck, I thought maybe you were it. What I need is someone with the right kind of eyes.
For looking at what?
Looking at that.
An ocean, money.
