Lesson no6

9/11/2015

Last time was the continuation of previous movie assignments. I had my presentation about the movie "Truman Show". The comedy was amazing I loved how it had a deeper meaning rather than just being another pointless comedy. I also was glad that I wasn't the only one who choose that movie. Even though we seen the same movie we understood some parts differently. It was fascinating how the same thing as simple as a movie could be experienced in different way. We seen the same exact thing yet our brain processed it in its own unique way. 

"Truman Show" made me over think and question a lot of things. Sometimes I feel like everything is going exactly as I wanted and after seeing the movie I had a moment when if someone came up to me and said "your life is a TV show" I would easily believed in it. Thankfully as time flew by my emotions caused by the movie cooled down.

Lesson no5

On these two hours of ToK classes we had presentations from our movie assignments. Only three movies were presented due to the lack of time but they were interesting. I enjoyed the most presentation about the movie "Memento" directed by Christopher Nolan. It is about man who lost short term memory, do not remember things that happened recently and he is trying to find the killer of his wife. The trailer looks good so I probably will watch that movie if I find some free time.
