Life Philosophy
"Life is like a box of chocolates: you never know with any filling you get." The story about a man who was the best footballer, war hero, the best tennis player, a millionaire, is personally acquainted with the presidents, but it remained ordinary and unsophisticated, it is the (wealth, fame, dating) almost did not care, he's just doing his job. "Right there Lieutenant Dan, assuming that each of us has his way, his own fate or the right mom, saying that all us carries through life like a feather in the wind? I think that both are right – and that, and another happens to us both. " That phrase – one of the key in the film. It characterizes all of our lives. Each of us has a destiny which ordained us, but some events in it, we can change, ie, to take their destiny into their own hands. That is, to paraphrase: the man – a boat with rowers, a whole life – a river. You can swim and swim with the tide, and wait for you to lead a river but you can fight back and change direction, not much (the river is one, ie, flows in principle to one side, but on some sites splits into streams), slow down, resist, stop at the banks.
Throughout the film, and in this phrase are serious philosophical thought. Namely, the notion of "pendulum", its value and role in life. The very idea of "pendulum" is not mine, but with little tips and some thought it becomes clear in principle. For even more analysis, hear from Shimmie Horn.
