Unlock your imagination

I usually watch good movies at least twice. Once to follow the movie line and let the director affect me as an audience, and another once to watch the details and take pleasure of beauties.

Last night I watched Finding Neverland (2004) again. The plot of the movie is the story of J.M. Barrie's friendship with a family who inspired him to create Peter Pan.

I realized that I liked this movie because I learned a lot of things by meeting Sir James Matthew Barrie (Johnny Depp). He is a real kind man and has a lot of good behaviors. For example, he never lies to children and he is always honest with them. This manner was so lovely to me (maybe) because I feel like kids sometimes.

There is something else in this movie that was interesting to me. The atmosphere of the movie is very English. Culture of England in the age of this story has been always influenced me.

Anyway, this is one my favorite dialogs in this movie:

Wendy: You know fairies, Peter?
Peter: Yes. But they're nearly all dead now. You see, Wendy, when the first baby laughed for the first time, the laugh broke into a thousand pieces and they all went skipping about and that was the beginning of fairies. And now when every new baby is born, its first laugh becomes a fairy. So there ought to be one fairy for every boy and girl.
Wendy: Ought to be? Isn't there?
Peter: Oh, no. Children know such a lot now. Soon, they don't believe in fairies. And every time a child says, "I don't believe in fairies", there's a fairy somewhere that falls down dead.

Groundhog day

It's not important that why is it happen. Even who cares about that is it possible or not? But what would you do if this happened to you?

You just wake up in a morning and after a while you find out that yesterday is repeating and you are in one of worse days in your life. You are in a awful terrible place that you hate it and you want to run away from there.

You just try to go out of there but, you can't and everyone says that you should wait until tomorrow. You are coming to a hotel and going to sleep, hoping for a better tomorrow but, when you wake up again at 6 o'clock, you see this is yesterday again and you remember everything you did in it, and you know everything that will be happen today…

I watched this movie tonight and I loved it. It has a good score in IMDB and it deserves it.

Plant of Leon

There are some movies I haven't only watched them; I've lived with them. One of them is "Leon". I've watched it many times and every time, decoded some new things in this movie.

I see character of Leon as a symbol. He is not only a person. He is a human with some properties. His personalities could be find easily in his plant that he call it "his best friend". Leon's plant is so similiar with him: "It has no questions, has no roots..." exactly the same as Leon.

And when Mathilda came to his life, everything changed. At first, Leon tried to trow Mathilda out of his life, but he couldn't. In fact, Mathilda changed his life for ever. In one of the last scenes, when the polices attacked their room, Leon said to Mathilda: "You'll never be alone Mathilda". 

In this scene Leon seems so different, because he has a new life, because he has root, because he sleeps on bed. 

Anyway Leon died, but his beliefe will never die. Mathilda is the keeper of Leon's beliefe and will save it from destruction. Now Mathilda is 12 years old and living in a school out of the town and growing up, but after some years Mathilda will return as a young lady and Leon's plant will be a grown up and strong plant too. So we are waiting...
