| Message | An open letter to Mr Aronofsky
I'd like to express my heartfelt joy upon watching 'The Fountain'. I'm not the type to send fan mail, but on this instance I've felt compelled.
There is no way to describe the feeling of amazement that i experienced when watching this film. As a self taught student of theology, I was blown away by the way your film deals with the issues of life and death. The messages of acceptance and rebirth touched me very deeply. During the credits, I openly wept with calm joy.
I have come to the conclusion that the fountain will never appeal to the masses. It's too complex. I wish it we're different, because I feel a film like, properly understood could change a few people's lives. And no matter what anyone else says, no matter what sales figures might point to, you've given at least one viewer the most moving experience of his life. |
