Shadowlands

As a reference for Boethius, The Consolation 2.8:

These two videos string together a few of the best scenes from Shadowlands (1993), starring Anthony Hopkins and Debra Winger, and directed by Richard Attenborough.

The quote about pain and happiness is to be found in the second link.

Be warned that the clips certainly constitute spoilers, so watch the whole film if you haven't seen it already.

This can be difficult, however, since there is no current US version available on DVD or Blu-Ray. I have lovingly cherished an old VHS copy now for over twenty years.
