The Mystical Man

One of the most bizarre movies I've ever watched. In the first half of the movie, the absurdity is entertaining. The movie falters towards the end, though.

Of what?

I love Inner Work: Using Dreams and Active Imagination for Personal Growth by Robert A. Johnson And Moore & Gillette:

"I thought, 'I cannot look myself in the mirror, if I don't do it.' So I did." - Jo

"The climate of fear was scaring me more than speaking out. What are we letting happen here? This is insane. This much fear around a woman arguing that she has the right to describe her life and her body in any way she chooses -- this is insanely regressive." - J.K. Rowling

Hitler must have inspired characters like Vader and Voldy: They're very similar.

Bruno Ganz did an amazing job. Downfall is one of my favorite movies of all time. It's the best movie that Germany has ever produced and probably will ever produce.

I love these two scenes as well: Hitler talks about his vision.

Hitler still capitalized on antisemitic ideas.

This is one of my favorite scenes from Downfall: Everyone was begging him to lead them, but he knew he was going to go into history as one of the most hated people.

Antisemitism existed long before Hitler's rise to power. Love would have seen through such ideas.

That's not Love. Love would not have exterminated the Jews. You can say that Hitler's love for Germany drove him to do the things he did, but that's not Love with a capital L. For another aspect of Love is wisdom. Hitler's life is not an expression of wisdom -- it's an expression of foolishness.

Hitler's life was not at all aligned with truth and love.

For some reason, that's what came up for me during the comedown of an acid trip. I could see Hitler sitting in his bunker and I felt compassion for him. I actually shed tears. That's the tragedy of it all. Hitler couldn't have chosen differently. He did the best he knew.

@Flyboy I like what you write. I hope you write more.

This book is so much better than I thought it would be. I thought it would be a shallow self-help book, but it's like a Jed McKenna book. Get it here.

A great way to study Shakespeare: Shakespeare Learning Zone | Royal Shakespeare Company (rsc.org.uk)

Frankly, Shakespeare is boring. We wrote much better dramas and comedies. But he's still the master of English.

@Something Funny That makes sense. I suggest you hide your interpretation so as not to spoil the movie for others. You can use this tag to hide text: ［spoiler］［/spoiler］

There are different interpretations online, but I doubt the director thought deeply about the meaning of his film -- he didn't have anything meaningful to say about relationships.
