This is the twenty seventh question / topic of the 30 days writing challenge I announced a couple of days ago. The total amount in prizes is 90,000 SNAX and it's being distributed as 3 daily prices of 1,000 SNAX each. For all the details, please check this post.
Why just two? Well, ideally, these movies should be relatively different. For instance, one can be a really popular one, which may have had a generational impact, while the other can be something almost unknown, something that only you or your close circle of friends know. Or one can be a comedy, and the other drama. You got the idea: there should be some sort of binary opposition between the two.
Here are my choices:
Matrix (and the Matrix trilogy) - it was by far the movie who shaped most of my adult life. I saw it when I was almost 30 and it really shifted me from a place of confusion to a place of awareness. I recently saw the entire trilogy again and I still discover things, angles, approaches that I wasn't aware of 20 years ago.
Hema, Hema, Sing Me A Song While I Wait - vimeo link I don't know how many people know about this movie, which was released 3 years ago. It's undeservingly unpopular, although I think it should be on the same level with Matrix (even if the special effects are completely absent). The movie was written and directed by a very special Buddhist monk, Khyentse Norbu. Incidentally, if you're looking for some clarity and fun, do yourself a service and search some talks of him on YouTube, he's a very down to earth (he directs movies, doh!) but at the same time very profound individual.
Your turn now!
IMPORTANT: please state your SNAX username in the post, so I know to which account to send the prize, should you be amongst the lucky winners! Thank you!
