The movies is about being able to live a parallel life where one can order the world as he or she wants it, dreams it. It's a nice way of reinterpreting the story of Don Quijote, the man that changed the world as he pleased and live it his own way. This character even appears in the discussion, as a paradigm of how the work of a genius can be reduced to only the first line of a book, as a symptomatic renouncement of the contemporary fellows that only remember the unessential, irrelevant part of one of the most famous books of humankind. But even these kind of guys can find the way of freeing the spirit and get an alternative existence throughout choice and free will. A nice and dynamic, sometimes easy comedy with a profound level of reaching a state of happiness in a crazy, money oriented love. Watch it and learn a lesson of how can we be happy!
Humans are unaware of the beauty that lies in their own souls. Sometimes, here comes a song, a poem, or a child,... or a movie, that reveals the inner beauty we once had it. So, that is the moment when we humans, suddenly cherries the life: ours and others. There aren't enough songs, or poems, or children, or movies, so, each new one should be saluted. Impressive beauty in images, in music and words. The beauty of a world we are not aware of, the beauty of our souls we are not aware of. The message of this masterpiece is an optimistic one, JJ, the baby whale should be an emblematic symbol of our return, from former hunters to actual friends. JJ is the character that stand for each species, each individual of the multitude that live on this planet. We too are JJ-s for a bear, a butterfly or a crab. A movie like this save us from ignorance. Enjoy the beauty in your souls, and see the movie. The African migratory story is just one of the many.
This movie is about a myth and the main character is a god that accidental crossed our world and has to come back into his. The diving is, in fact a conquest of absolute freedom and knowledge, a space of no pain and great joy. Don't ever use the word "romance" to describe a film made by an intelligent and extremely gifted European director. Don't ever say about such a movie that is too long. May be your understanding abilities are too short. Music and acting and location are superlatives. Enjoy this invitation to a sacred world so close to us. Take that step that tell the difference from taxes and news to pure beauty. Amorgos is the island where they made the movie. May be this is a place we all should go to sense the mythical "reality" of our world. And there we'll understand Marquez's Macondo, and Homer's island of Alcinou and Naussica.
