Gravity - Movie

Gravity - Movie


Light is temporary. It is weak. It is finite. It is confined. It is bounded.

Whereas Darkness is persistent. It is strong. It is everything yet nothing. It is everywhere. It is unorganized. It is unordered. It is not classified. It, by nature, doesn't show things which we call 'hiding'.



Wisdom symbolized by light must be the greatest misunderstanding ever. Innocence symbolized by darkness is the ultimate truth.

The film Gravity would be quite meaningful if seen from a philosophical angle. As a science fiction, it may at first sound like a stranded astronaut in space trying to return to Earth. To me, it metaphors a philosophical side of life.

Matt Kowalski's (George Cooney) character in the film is just that. When he slips into the darkness knowing that the rope that holds Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) cannot hold two at a time, he makes a lot of sense.

Ryan Stone's want to return to Earth can be taken as greed for earthly life which in philosophical terms is merely a curse.

Social norms are fictional by-products of this obsession. We all are simply stuck in this obsession's various microscopic levels. Socializing is that complexity of immersing ourselves into this obsession where there can never be a return.
