Nowadays, I have been watching the classical movies which are about the liberaty, such as the 1990, the Truman Show and the One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. Watching these old movies doesn't mean that I am a man of restoring ancient ways, but a way of pursuing my heart and soul. The 1900 tells us a story of an abandoned boy's life, a boy never leaving the boat "Virginia". Only living on the boat and liviing with the piano, can 1900 feel the meaning of life. It is his destiny. The movie which shocks me most is the truman show, maybe we all are living in the world of others. The last plot of the movie that two men are changing channel after they watch the truman escaping from the studio, which is so ridiculous and ironic. We should live in our own world and chase the life belong to our own. Coming back to the real world, we work,study,love and we are so busy. But usually,we should stay still ,go into the inner space, have a think about our original dream and have a listen to the voice of the heart. Then we can find the liberaty of heart and the power of life.

The Truman Show is one of my favourite films! Its quite a thinker, isn't it? One of the other films I watched which really affected me, especially as its a true story, was the Pianist. The lead characters journey is haunting and really brought to me the true horrors of war, and how lucky we are to be here today.

Thank you for the response. I can't agree with you any more. The Truman Show is really a masterpiece. Although we a re lucky to avoid the war,however, we are also unlucky compared to the 1900, who can pursue his true life and live a piano-life.

Movies do lead us to think different at times. They are not a formula to solve issues, but they do make us think at times. So, watch movies, but do not become too much engrossed about them beyond a limit.

Yes, you are right and thank you for your response. Sometimes, we indeed are indulged in the movie and lose ourselves, which usually takes the negtive affect on the normal life. We should adjust the emotion and try to achieve the active energy from the movie or others like books.
