A dream Movie " Inception"
A Dream Movie: Director Depicts His Reality Differences among people exist in many ways, the way they think, feel and how they express these to others. Expressing ourselves is important for everyone because in a way we get that feeling of freeness. As human beings we tend to be very sentimental, therefore we feel the need to be heard by others of what they think, feel, and themselves. A person may express themselves in way that is more appropriate to them. For Christopher Nolan the best way to show his opinions and thought to others is by directing movies. He directed “Inception,” a movie that talks about entering in ones dream and launching an idea in his or her mind. The whole idea of the movie can even be found in a standard dictionary definition of the title word Inception, meaning “the act of installing an idea into someone’s mind by entering his or her dreams.”(Dictionary) But the question is why Nolan chooses to write this movie? I think that the main reason is because this is the way that he best can talk about his reality and without making it visible that is doing that, without highlighting it. When one sees “Inception” in the beginning makes no sense to him/her. And often could be asked the question, “Why someone would write a movie like this, which is far from reality?” But if you stop for a moment and think about your reality you may find out connection, and might start think if this is your real reality, or your reality is your dream. This is main point that I want to argue in this essay, the relationship of the author’s reality and the movie that he wrote by looking at two perspectives that of the characters and the other of objects used in the movie.
The link between the people in Nolan’s reality, and “Inception” The people around Nolan’s reality are metaphorically represented by characters of the movie. As many film critics have argued this film is about filmmaking, Nolan has also stated that
