El hoyo (2019)
Spontaneous Solidarity
I see the movie exactly as I see the world. There is not one difference. The creator, the god, the unknown prepares everything perfectly and sends it to the universe, the Earth, believing that if everyone takes their share, all would be good.
The upper levels represent those who are closest to the creator and are most blinded by their privileges and ignorant of their duties. The lower levels represent those who are farthest away from the creator and are most unheard, suppressed, powerless, and needy.
It may be easy and popular to blame the creator (aka. Administration), the cellmate (aka. Friends and family), the level where you are this month (aka. Social status). While we are in the lower levels we can recognise many problems due to our first-hand experiences, but as soon as we get to the upper levels we become the problems.
In other words, if you feel unfortunate, unfulfilled, wronged, then you're not close enough to the creator to make a difference. But if a moment comes in your life when you are feeling very fortunate, heavenly, luckiest, then that is the moment you must remember that you're much closer to the creator. If by chance you remember the moments you spent in the lower levels at this point, it will push you towards spontaneous solidarity, and you will become the change, the one who defies the problem itself.
The spontaneous solidarity was achieved because someone was able to live through both such experiences. If you are fortunate enough in your life to experience both sides of a situation, you have the opportunity to enlighten the spontaneous solidarity in yourself which will be able to remove the problem, but the action must be taken swiftly while you are the fortunate one (in the upper levels). That is where the problems take shape.
Rick and Morty: Total Rickall (2015)
Amazing Episode
According to the meditation technique of Vipassana, it is said that the one and only reason of all the misery in this world is human beings entertaining their cravings and/or aversions without bounds. This episode reflects gloriously on the same.
According to Rick's final solution to battle the space virus, the idea was to figure out and eliminate all such characters from your life with whom you only had good moments/storylines/memories and no bad ones at all. The faulty characters Rick is trying to spot and is annihilating on sight are none other than the cravings which we should keep spotting and removing from our own lives to make our lives better according to this technique of meditation.
Towards the end, the episode takes an interesting turn to accommodate for such gems in the world like Mr Poopy Butthole, who is so pure in his love and compassion, that Rick's family mistakenly thinks that he's also to be annihilated. It signals the seldom losses you might face along the way of getting rid of all your cravings.
Rang Rasiya (2008)
A very nice movie
A great Indian movie reflecting how India restored her historical temple of culture and civilization, gods and goddesses, people and rulers. The movie is filmed a century backwards, and it captures the social elements which has been the main reason why the Indian history has not been fostered by its people so long.
The central character, who is an independent painter, gets inspired with Indian goddesses via a lady he meets in a temple. His talent of painting is his life. Being a human, he can not live with his talents spirited away by new technology of cinematography. He quits painting but gets trapped by law for spreading nudity and false image of gods, in words of a famous community leader. Airs get cleared when he explains his intentions behind these paintings which prove to be an unforgettable contribution in bringing back the nation's history and culture.
The movie is plotted in Kerala, a south Indian state and it holds a very nice illustration of people and families living there. Visual effects have been successful in rendering the lifestyle those people enjoy. The movie shows how gods in India descended from temples to homes and everywhere, how the third class of society got access to public worshiping. It reflects existence and functioning of social division of 'varnas' which was very prominent in India a century ago.
The movie ties up with chronological events like revolts in late 19th century, formation of Indian National Congress, spread of plague etc. It also shows France introducing cinema to India, leading to the formation of Indian film industry by Dada Saheb Phalke, a constant side-role in disguise.
Overall, a great movie with almost no flaws, successful in its goal of introducing the viewers to early Indian culture.
Black Mirror: The Entire History of You (2011)
Excellent delivery of the encrypted message
Just like the previous two episodes of the series, this one proves quite worth its time. It entertains the hypothetical life of a man who lives in a time when everyone has a 'grain', a modern age beneath-the-ear implant enabling the user to record everything (s)he hears or sees.
The episode shows a man who intelligently figures out that his wife cheated on him with the baby and that the baby is not his'. Without the grain, he would have lived forever with the assumption that the baby is his own. The fight entails their divorce. Till the divorce, the only thing he can focus is his wife's non - loyalty. After the divorce, he only sees his former wife's loving and caring memories at every moment. He can't survive in his own house. Eventually, he gets rid of the grain.
The question to ponder upon is whether the grain is constructive for our life or the opposite.
The man ruins his life by dragging himself with the negative memories from the grain after the divorce. It would have been wiser to focus on the happier memories. But is it even possible for the humankind to do so!
One can argue that never let the bad memories drag you down. Cut out the grain and throw it away if you have to. Don't live in the past. But this is only keeping in mind the last 5 minutes of the episode.
