Movies...I love to watch them. I have been told that I am quite the critic. I like to watch movies that takes me on a journey. I love mystery, action thrillers, and based on a true story movies. When I go to the movies, I am very analytical by nature and because I studied cinematography.
Today, I watched "Premonition" and "I think I love My Wife." Yes, these are two different movies but they walk a fine line that parallels one another. These movies both say the same thing to me, "Life is about choices." Each week, I teach adults of all ages about making wise choices. Both characters of Sandra Bullock and Chris Rock had to make choices in the movies on how best to handle their circumstances.
With certain classes, I like to assign them a movie to watch. Previously, I sent them to watch "The Freedom Writers." In class, we talk about the good and bad choices, the moral and ethical issues, and deliberate between the right and the wrong.
I was thinking about this movie and there is so much in "Premonition" to process. If you haven't seen the movie, then I do not want to tell too much. However, there are two things that I have thought about...first, Bullock's character "Linda" asks her mother "if I let Jim die is that the same as killing him?" As the movie progresses, we discover the plight of this twisted turn of events leads to the choice "Linda" must make. Choices...life is based upon the choices we make. This movie helped me to think back to a choice I made many years ago...which still affects me today.
Have you seen the movie? What are you thoughts?
