Two things that i liked in The Inception

Hi Guys

Sitting late in office today. Not really sure what am i doing or why am i here. tried surfing some random sites and got bored with that also. Thought blogging was the final refuge. Have tried to write something about 'The Inception' ( by Chris Nolan)

I generally do it to most of the Christopher Nolan movies - watch it more than once and believe me the second time I watch a movie I do find something newly appealing. Was watching Inception just a few days back for the second time and found two things very very appealing -

1) the idea that he (Leonardo DiCaprio) plants i his wife's mind - (Your world is not real); bcoz of which she commits suicide thinking she actually lives in a dream world that her current life may not be real. Yoiu might have to take a leap of faith to go to the real world.

Just give it a thought u never know, the idea may actually be real. The first time i heard about this was a "Education in Human Values" class in my 12th standard, when my teacher said:

'When u dream u actually don't realize it is a dream. It is only when u get up, u realize. Similarly, in our lives we can never really make out if we are actually living or it is just a dream while the real 'we' is sleeping somewhere. It is only when we get up we would.'

- Am i dreaming now???

2) Leonardo DiCaprio says to the 'projection of his wife' towards the end of the movie - "You actually are not my wife and I have to leave u. With all her perfections/ imperfections, with all her goodness/ badness; u r just the best i could create but then u r not good enough coz u r not her. (NOTE: the words may not be exactly the same but this as i have understood is what he means in his words)

Now, I do not know why this dialogue was so very good, but probably it takes us a bit deeper in thinking. (U can actually help me think and figure it out).

Bye, i guess this is enough for now. Now back to surfing and wasting my time.
