The way we find ourselves
Is Like in movies
By watching others
“they say this one …has a surprise ending”
-Mrs. Price
I´ve always felt movies tell us many things
No movie translate this feeling
Of uncertainty better than
“Unbreakable”
We don’t know how others feel
We can see it on their faces
On their hands, on the way they bite
their lips
or answer slowly
We all have questions
We all hate questions
We have no guide to tell us what’s next
We are alone as superheroes.
As in comic books
In this movie
“It´s an exaggeration of the truth”
-Samuel L. Jackson as Elijah Price.
Directed by M. Night Shyamalan
Edited by Dylan Tichenor
Cinematography by Eduardo Serra
Unbreakable
Tells the story of two uncommon
People that meet
David Dunn survives
A train crash
Unbreakable
iron strong
He desperately wants to find himself
As Peter Parker, Bruce Banner or Clark Kent…
David Dunn has questions
One lives in light the other in shadows
Two Archetypes
Elijah Price was born
Breakable
glass weak
He desperately wants to find meaning
As Mysterio, Lex Luthor or Green Goblin
Elijah Price is the complete opposite
“Tell me something, David. When you woke up
This morning…Was it still there?
The sadness?”
-Elijah Price
