The meaning of life

And so we went to see The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill tonight at the Guild Cinema. It affected me on several levels. Not that the film is a puzzle (It is a straight-forward report of a man and his “hobby.”). Rather, it’s simplicity allows one to look deeper into small pleasures…and wonder how they fit into the fabric of one’s own life.

Many have praised this film, for example:

A thoroughly absorbing portrait of one man’s discipline and commitment — and, yes, spiritual transformation….Quite simply, a beautiful film, in both form and content. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. And your heart is guaranteed to soar.
