My Dinner with Andre
My Dinner with Andre takes place solely as a dinner conversation with two friends, two thinking analyzing friends at that. It is a brain full of thoughts to ponder. Full of jumpy subject matter that could give you a headache but also stimulate your thinking.
Most of the movie
This movie to me proves a point that I have increasingly felt has come to the fore in my life. That is, No matter what we feel on a matter we can support it. We can say on one hand, “life is getting better” and we can say on the other hand, “Life is getting worse”. We can point to answers in within the same society to justify both.
The main question may be are we living mechanically or in some way found out how to live by our own design. Unfortunately, it will always come back to being able to view things either way. If one is content just sitting with no purpose and one is content only with some sort of purpose (like reading a book) which is living mechanically?
One point brought up is how we tend to look at events in which seem to tell us something based on their significant meaning and closeness to our life. In which they may even point us in a direction due to the progress of events that are presently affecting us.
“A group of meaningless facts that are collected and interpreted in a scientific way may quite possibly be relevant”
“They are based on experiments that can be repeated”
What about the thought of omens or the future telling us where to go in the present. Is it a way to let ourselves off the hook as to what we should do, not taking responsibility for what we do? Could it not just be events that – Just Happen?
This film is interesting. Watch it only when you are up for a long conversation. Otherwise it may be boring.
Drink of choice is a glass of roster 47 followed by amaretto.
