Unit IV Essay
Film Essay
Each of the movie selections this unit deal with a big question that is very hard to answer, but a question we should all wrestle with. How do we determine perception vs. reality?
In the movie A Beautiful Mind, a doctor is explaining the horror of schizophrenia to John Nash's wife and he says:
You see the nightmare in schizophrenia is not knowing what's true. Imagine if you had suddenly learned that the people and the places and the moments most important to you were not gone, not dead, but worse . . . had never been. What kind of hell would that be?
Discuss perception vs. reality within your selected movie. How does the movie determine perception vs. reality?
What about you? When you look around you at the world, how do you know how to react to the people, events, or things that cross your path?
