Origin
In the 2023 film Anatomy of a Fall, Sandra Voyter is on trial for the suspected murder of her husband. In a flashback, Sandra and Samuel are in an argument, which leads Sandra to criticize her husband in an extended monologue. The monologue reads:
You complain about the life that you chose! You’re not a victim! Not at all! Your generosity conceals something dirtier and meaner. You’re incapable of facing your ambitions, and you resent me for it. But I’m not the one who put you where you are. I have nothing to do with it! You’re not sacrificing yourself, as you say. You choose to sit on the sidelines because you’re afraid! Because your pride makes your head explode before you can even come up with a little germ of an idea! And now you wake up and you’re forty, and you need someone to blame. And you’re the one to blame! You’re petrified by your own fucking standards and your fear of failure. This is the truth!
On January 15th, 2024, TikTok account the_goodfilms[1] isolated the clip and posted it to the app, gaining over 2.4 million views and 208,000 likes on the platform in one month (shown below).

@nicoloperilli all I'm asking is would it have been too much to ask for someone to get some generational wealth going?? is it so hard to invest in cannolis or Apple stock? #ancestry #anatomyofafall ♬ original sound – THE GOOD FILMS.
