Life of Pie.

I am not generally this dumb but it took me second watching of the film to realize what exactly it is supposed to say. Still when I think back I am not very sure what it was meant to be. If I have to talk about meaning of movie then it certainly is in its last sentence by Irfaan Khan, "And so it is with God".  In my opinion any form of art is very personal, it not only depicts physical objective appearance of it but also the thought which is communicated from creators mind to that of viewers. Sometimes when u sees nice photo or a painting, what is more important than that painting is the thought behind it which was in its creators mind. This thought is directly penetrated in viewers mind like a flash of light. And that’s true success of that particular piece of art. Life of pie does same thing it hits some unknown chord of your heart without being aware of it and keeps u wondering what exactly it was.

Best part about movie is its silent pauses when there is constant screen show going on. Aang lee preserves movies introspective tone by not adding “and then I was thinking….blah blah” kinds of dialogues when there is something going on in Piscine @ Pies mind, thus leaving viewers to think what he/she might have thought had he/she been in Pies place. This is Where Aang gives movie a different horizon altogether. And thus again re uttering the message "And so it is with God".

If u revisit movie after its over thinking and placing Pie in Richard Parkers place or may be considering Richard Parker to be Pies inner Voice which made him survive for whatever number of days(more than number survival is important) then u realise the beauty of movie and kind of message it has tried to deliver. When he sees reflection of his own fears and ideas in his soul (Richard Parkers eyes) that time Pie realizes that it’s far more than that reflection it is about His own inner strength. Be it a God, Ishwer or anything else to be named.

In short movie is great philosophical voyage along with Pie to find your own Richard Parker inside you. Aang Lees beautiful cinematographic presentation gives you feeling of long passionate kiss of tender cardamom smelling lips, which keeps lingering in your mind more than on your lips and keeps you wondering what it was all about. Like the flash of art from heart to heart.. Leaving you empty still with the joy of some unknown fulfillment…!!
