Before I never was good watching movies. But after a few years, internet get a really big oportunity to know some interesting films, that i considered intriguing . So my favorite movies it's the
"The Secret Life of Walter Mitty". This movie it's special, not just because it's a great story, also because i feel it represent me in many ways. This movie it's about a person, who had a ordinary and bored life, but always wanted to travel, but he venture in one. The little details, as the wallet that a renowed photographer gave him, or the lost of a special photograph for the last number of an adventure magazine, are the excuse to show us how you can decide to change your life, and suddenly, make all what you ever dream but you never attemp.
The best it's that in the soundtrack are two songs of my favorites artist: David Bowie, with the magical Space Oddity, and Arcade Fire with his nostalgic song "Wake Up". The scene when Walter is walking through the airport to travel to the artic it's one of my favorite.
I like movies when they had a message deepful. that make you wonder what are you doing with your life, and inspire you to became some new things.
The last movies i watched it's a japanese animation of an amazing director, called Satoshi Kon, the movie i'm talking about it's "Perfect Blue". This movie it's a piece of art of animation, considered as a cult movie. It's about a pop singer named Mima who decide to change the music to became an actress. In this process, start to happen some terrorific things: a letter bomb, threaths of dead, and a strange blog on which the "real Mima" blame her of tainted her image. Perfect Blue it's a wonderful psychological movie, with a very intriguing plot , that question others things like how our identity change with the time, or how the media sell us the famous's image as product, and how we feel that their life belong us. (The director of Black Swan buy the rights of the film, and some scenes are copy of Perfect Blue!).


The perfect combination of a soundtrack and a scene is magic and even more with the quality of that artists.
ReplyDeleteI love David Bowie's Space Oddity scene in the secret life of Walter Mitty (it's the only scene I've ever watched) and Perfect Blue it's definitely on the list of movies that I must watch! it's a masterpiece.
