Deep Water (2006)
About the £5000 competition for sailing around the world in 1968. It centres on one man, Donald Crowhurst, who is described as a 'weekend sailor' at best. Very sad.. after 10 months of solitude on his shitty leaking yacht, racked with shame and failure, with no way out, he starts to philosophize.
"The explanation of our troubles is that
cosmic beings are playing games with us.
During his lifetime
each man played cosmic chess against the
devil.
God is playing one set of rules
and the devil with the other exactly
opposite set of rules.
The shameful
secret of God, the trick, he used.. because the
truth would hurt too much, is that there
is no good or evil. Only truth."
