Nocturnal Animal (2016)
Screenplay and Direction: Tom Ford
Probably, from the time our pre-frontal lobes of the brain started becoming more complex, humankind must have started wondering the meaning of it all, the meaning of our existence, the path for us to follow and the dos and don'ts of life. We must have wondered whether we were made to follow a predestined pathway of life or we are all different beings with different destinations and map to follow. We may have thought that our varied capabilities, capacities and composition are the very essence that makes the world to exist.
Hence, we cannot expect every individual to be moulded out to fit into a certain preset prototype in a society. Everyone is different and the society indeed needs variety in its netizens' make up for its continuity.
Maybe because we are scared what the future holds for us, we want to follow the path most taken and insist that our loved ones do the same. Unfortunately, not everyone is cut for this. This leads to breakdowns of our relationship.
This visually pleasing presentation by a world renowned fashion designer tries to depict the revenge of a man whose inner capabilities were stunted by his better half who thought that, in order to succeed, one has to follow the oft-taken weather beaten path. Nothing else is good enough. It goes on to prove, in an interesting way, with a story within a story way, that everybody has talent and it is up to us to build the courage to showcase it to the world for approval. The ending is kept vague to spur to imagine in our mind on the purpose of the storyteller's actions. An interesting watch.
