Good movies to makes u think
Been watching some movies old and new and have a number of them that really got me thinking and really reflected the life of people in this century...
first of all:
Click
well, I watched it through DVD and at first I was thinking "well, it's a comedy, most probably it will not leave any influence in my life but halfway through the movie I got the message that it trying to give... and at the end of the movie, I actually filled with tears with all the great things. The message that it gives are "FAMILY IS MORE IMPORTANT" think of this, how many people in this world put courier first? Either u're using your work to run away from something (like one of the episode from Medical Investigation where it touches me too) or just to get away from annoying family members or anything at all... but family is what u go back to at the end of the day, you might lose them in a way but they still care a love you. I know that things are tough sometimes. Anyhow, this movie makes me think of the situation in this world right now. Anyhow, Adam Sanders, GOOD JOB in this movie for bringing the right message to people out there who are sometimes being crouded by work and neglecting their family. I love this a lot!!!
Second:
World Trade Center - the movie
Well, basically it's the story about courage and faith... this is one of the subject being repeated a lot of time by many people. Well, how many people remember how the world come togather after the 9/11 incident?? As years passed, people started to forget what its like to be standing togather and to help each other. I think the society need the boost to remember what it was during that time. I say, GOOD THING to have stuffs to make us remember how it was to be standing togather as human being in this world.
Then the book:
Wicked - the life and time of the wicked witch of the west
Yes, you read it right, it's a spin off from the all time classic - The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and well, the author did a good job putting in stuffs that makes us think. How would you be if you're the green one?? The whole novel is about racism... how the minority have been looked different in a society. Well, no matter how u learn stuffs, it still something strong in society everywhere. I wondered as I read, this book really makes us think... well, is the Wizard really the "good guy" as we know in the classic, he is... well, in this novel, although doesn't wrote by the original author, it still makes pretty much sense of how things is and are in the land of Oz... well, no one is 100% good or evil... well, it's a big book and a hard book to read if you're trying to find the meaning but just goes with the flow of the story and it's actually not that bad... it's one of my favourite now... ofcourse, the musical "Wicked" the storyline are different... to warn you that.
Anyhow, all these makes my time to re-think of all the situation in the world and society...
