What Shoes Did Cael Sanderson



The famous filmmaker or, let the more archaic term, maker of stories Harold Ramis has provided us with a successful series of films with touches esoteric, but for your sets.

Without dwelling too much on the movie Ghostbusters (in which anyone with a fertile imagination could find scatological metaphors sync and some of the topics discussed in this collection include: the apocalyptic battle against a Sumerian god exchanger forms dense demonology and infestation problems, and last but not least the possession and exorcism attempt to Dana Barrett), we will turn to two other films that portray low the surface of the play any of the subjects interesting.

prefer the title Groundhog Day the Spell antisonante Time (in the original: Groundhog Day ), perhaps because some happy finds the inquisitive eye Groundhog allegory with the archetype of Loco. Indeed, the film seems to hide some deep meaning behind that happy ending Phil Connors and Rita together.

For those who could not even enjoy the movie the story tells of a time loop, in which Phil , the protagonist, a forecaster time - is enclosed reliving every day since coming to town. This gift or gift to relive the same day seems to arouse in the player the illusion of free and failing because of their acts, can act with greater selfishness.

It's funny how certain gifts only discover or expose (a fun pun on exponentiate and placed outside ) what we have inside; like when Gollum observes first ring. And like Gollum the gift is soon transformed into a curse ... Phil finally includes real backdrop of illusory freedom: its prison without walls and pursues all means to escape it without success.

The answer finally comes through their being polar Rita, who in weighing the situation offers a change of attitude, which the protagonist begins the arduous task of reoriented, ie, stop feeling the victim, start to recognize their selfish attitudes towards others already offer, in short, to the trained eye, this transformation occurs through conscious suffering: from egocentric service to the service of others . Perhaps a nod to the famous Russian author Mouravieff , author of books Gnosis, who said humanity is in an infinite loop, until he leaves his selfishness and being able to identify those influences release him illusion.

may Al Bedazzled (the original Bedazzled ) allows the discovery of these influences . The story places the protagonist in a situation Faustian motivated by a refusal of love, which leads him to agree to a representative of the World authorities.

Every desire of the protagonist ends away from its desired love, until he begins to realize that the pact has been a mistake, but the situation worsens, as the exogenous factor moves the pieces of human reality with the aim of isolate and subdue his spirit.

In the meantime, believing all was lost, curiously in a prison, the protagonist find a character that will tell you their real options, and take you to redirected through not egocentric influences. Here again

steps occur:
  • recognize exogenous manipulation, in this case a negative amorous attitude
  • stop longing: not trying to rule over others;
  • begin to know himself;
  • orient service to others (*)

(*) This does not mean dressing acolyte far deny oneself. Serve another can be as simple as providing an ear when someone needs it, in short, to show an openness to learn neighbor.
