Silver lining

I think that the movie is really about finding happiness and finding what is important to you in life. The central themes in the movie are reforming yourself, reconnecting with others, and love not only between pat and Victoria but between family and friends as well. I had not seen this movie before and was highly confused in the beginning but I warmed up to the movie. I think what is considered good in "good" is really up for interpretation not only in the movie but it life. For example the dinner scene, pat thinks its okay to wear a jersey to dinner but his hostess does not. He also doesn't have a filter which many of us would consider bad but to Victoria is a good thing. I think one of the scenes that stands out to me the most is the scene where he collapses on the bed and the pile of books he has been reading falls to the floor and he doesn't  care. He has been reading them so he can keep up to date with his wife's teachings and this scene shows that he is progressing past his dependency on getting back with her and he is actually falling for someone else. I would look at the different techniques used to film the movie Avatar because that is what stands out to most people. The same with star wars and tie that in with our science fiction beliefs that here are more intelligent life forms out in space besides us and that we may one day get there. I will also explore why these moves are still remembered even though when they first came out a lot of propel didn't understand or believe that they would be a big hit. This movie has proved that I don't know as much about mental illness as I thought I did and it is something that I may want to increase my knowledge on before I graduate with a Special Education degree.
