Why in Database: The turtle appears in this film only in one scene, mainly in the form of a dialogue – although the character catches the turtle with a fishing rod, but it is a scene on the lake and at night, so you cannot see the animal in any way (which can be “seen” in the attached screenshots). The heroine is outraged by the fact that the protagonist “freed him”, that is, he cut off the line, instead of killing him – which makes the turtle free, but with a hook stuck in his mouth.
– What is it?
– It’s a rock with flippers.
– A turtle. Oh, shit! A turtle.
– It’s got a nasty beak on it. That can make short work of a finger.
– What have you done?
– Well, I cut the line.
– With the hook still in it?
– Well, I couldn’t get it back. It swallowed the hook.
– Swallowed the hook?
– Yeah.
– Swallowed the hook? Fuck you. Fuck you! Fuck you! You’re a coward.
– Would you rather me, what, cut off his head or something?
– Oh, yes, yes, I would, because that is what any sane person would have done, instead of letting it
swim around with a hook in its throat for the rest of its life. Can you–can you imagine that, huh, a hook in your throat for the rest of your life, forever?
– Yes, I–
– No! No, you can’t!
– It was a turtle.
– No!
– It’s just a turtle. Hey, come here. Come here. Come on. It was just a turtle.
