The Fountain is a unique, hard and deep film. It is
different from any other movies that I have seen. You can say it's
a love story, or a SF film, but that's not exact. It's a film about
love ,death, spirituality and eternity. And the director want to
show us his idea about mortality. Life is short,and death is
inevitable. But some experience will stick in your mind
forever. No one can choose how and when he/she will die, no
one can decide how long he/she will live. All we could do is to
make our life meaningful and colorful.
It is so difficult for me to describe the
story exactly, and I think any summaries on this film are
misleading. You must see it and feel it by yourself.
