The Others (2001) - The Importance of the "Beginner's Mind" - The Desert of the Mind Jason's Choice #15

The Others (2001) is a mysterious, spooky thriller where Nicole Kidman plays a woman left alone in a mansion after her husband goes off to fight in WWII. This is one of Jason's personal favorite movies. He says he can't even come up with a single con. What movies do you wish you could watch for the first time? This movie works beautifully if you do not know what is coming, and we talk about whether knowing about the endings to films beforehand ruins them or not. We talk about a lot of great topics and allow Jason to really flex his philosopher's mind with one of his favorites. We ask all sorts of questions like, Is emotionally understanding something better than logically understanding something? Do we put aside the unknown for logic? Does everyone experience something that they simply cannot explain? Do people cut off access to certain types of information because they don't believe in it, and turn off the unknown? It's a great talk! Even a reminder that drugs are bad for you.Let us know your thoughts, review, and recommendations at [email protected]
