“The Matrix”‚ a 1999 film by the Wachowski brothers‚ adapts a number of new and ancient philosophies about the truth behind reality‚ but the most central to the overarching framework of the film is adapted from Plato’s Allegory of the Cave. While “The Matrix” mirrors Plato’s allegory almost exactly in structure‚ its storyline is far more complex and it is effectively adapted to be a modern sci-fi/action movie. The film draws in a modern audience‚ who can relate to its protagonist‚ Neo‚ because we
