Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 23oC and a lot of rain.
As I looked out of my window, I saw a familiar sight – a grey sky continuously shedding tears. The rain had been pouring down incessantly for several days, making it impossible to exercise outdoors. Jumping rope? Out of the question, I would end up drenched to the bone! With limited options available, I found myself in an unusual situation – binge-watching a TV series.
I’m not usually hooked on TV series, but something about “Tulsa King with Sylvester Stallone” had me glued to the screen. Perhaps the allure of the old-school charm and hard-core principles drew me in.
In a world inundated with modern, intricate and confusing shows with complex characters, “Tulsa King” is a refreshing throwback. It offers a more straightforward and clear-cut view of morality, where things are more black and white.
The protagonist of the story is a gangster, but what sets him apart is his good heart and strict adherence to a code of ethics. Despite being in a morally ambiguous profession, he manages to find a glimmer of righteousness and holds on to his honour and integrity.
The story doesn’t beat around the bush, and it’s clear that right and wrong still hold weight even in such a profession. The tale is almost like a nostalgic trip to a time when principles were as steadfast as the rain outside my window.
While the rain kept pouring outside, I got lost in the “Tulsa King” world as I sipped a delicious wine from a beautiful glass. It was a perfect way to escape from the dreary weather on a Saturday night.
As the clock struck 10 p.m., I said goodbye to the charming gangster and headed to bed.
To my surprise, I found comfort in an unexpected activity—watching a TV series on a rainy day. Breaking my usual routine and trying something new proved to be quite refreshing. Life’s unexpected twists and turns can lead to delightful discoveries and an abundance of fun.
Thank you.
