Join us for our next Movie Watcher’s Group on Sunday, June 24 at 8 pm ET / 5 pm PT. The film explores deep concepts of time, the universe, mortality, memory, and humanity. Mr. Nobody is a tale about choice. Nemo, a nine year old boy, has been thrust into a position where he must make an impossible decision – to choose between his mother and father. In the seconds preceding the rest of his life he wonders where each choice will take him. The dilemma that causes the film’s main problem (not knowing the future) once solved makes it all the more difficult – “I don’t know the future, therefore I cannot make a decision. Now that I know the future I still cannot make one”. The movie takes a four-dimensionalists view of the nature and existence of life in the universe. Each decision thus branching off creating an entirely separate alternative universe. The film also makes good use of chaos theory, string theory and the butterfly effect to accentuate the lack of control we as individuals possess. The film portrays a life where we are all subject to chance, to the dimensions by which we construct our reality (height, length, width and time), and to the imagination of our former selves. Please note, one critic describes this movie as one “that constantly engages the mind and rewards repeated viewings.”
