Unveiling the Majesty of the Sun

Whenever I get stuck in a rut, I watch Life of Pi.

In my opinion, Life of Pi is an absolute treasure.

It’s creative, visually stunning and thoughtful dialogues always inspires me.

I also believe that music makes up half a film and it’s liltingly gentle where it needs to be and silent when the powerful sounds of nature is enough.  And you know how I love nature!

My favourite quote summed up ‘believing in everything all at once is like believing in nothing at all’ always make me think how true that is. As much as I like to believe in everything, I realised that action didn’t bring much peace nor happiness into my life because I felt like I was being pulled in different directions. Once I realised that I needed to believe in myself first, life became a little easier.

On the visual imagery, I have three favourite scenes.

The first is where Pi’s uncle swims in his favourite swimming pool and somehow air and water elements blend together beautifully. It’s spellbinding.

My second favourite scene is where Pi is sitting on this raft in the middle of the ocean, surrounded by hundreds of glowing blue jellyfish swimming just underneath the ocean’s surface. Pi is happily playing with the water until he sees something rising from its depth. Suddenly, a huge whale whooshes out of the water and splashes him with waves that are shimmering blue. It’s magical and magnificent!

My third is a very short scene if you can catch it. It’s a gorgeous aerial shot, in the style of a time-lapse, of where we see Pi and his tiger exhausted, trying to survive and lying down on the boat, and all these ocean creatures, big and small, swimming underneath as if we are observing life from above.
