Big Fish, 2003
Director : Tim Burton
Cast : Ewan McGregor(Young Edward Bloom), Albert Finney (Senior Edward Bloom)
I found movie Big Fish searching for movies.
Scenes from movie were fantastic, and it felt like a fairytale.
The movie is about The Blooms.
Will Bloom, son of Edward Bloom, was sick of his dad’s brags, and not talking to him at all.
After he was told that his dad was on a critical situation, he stayed by his dad at home.
Even though Will Bloom grew hearing about his dad’s experience, now he was taking those experiences as a fantasy that could not be fulfilled in a real world.
Content of Experience : Edward Bloom saw how he would end up his life from a witch in town.
The story of him having a trip with a giant.
The story of him getting to work at circus troupe to know about a woman he loved.
A circus master was a werewolf and so on.
Then the son asked his dad to tell him real stories of him, not absurd things.
But, he got people laughing with those stories that might be coming from fairytales.
Edward Bloom watching it got complaints.
When he was taking care of his dad’s storage, Edward Bloom got to trace past of his dad to find out the truths about his dad.
In doing so, he found out that his stories were not fake, and that his dad was staying true, and he got to knew that his dad was not a liar but a person who could turn an ordinary life into a beautiful story.
The son closing the eyes of his father made more fantastic story to tell his father.

Tim Burton’s fantastic scenes and his shooting effects made the movie more fun.
Watching the movie, I felt that if a life that I am living is boring and not fun, that life is not changeable.
That life can be so fantastic that it even can turn into a story.
There is no boundaries between fantasy and reality.
Also, I felt like listening to my dad’s story making my heart warm and like being a child.
I hope our lives will be full of fun and beautiful stories.
I would recommend you to watch Big Fish if you have not watched it.
Our lives are never lack of fantasy. We are always ignore the persons and things around us. Sometimes we may be tired, but think about people who have same mind with you and love you pray for you every day. you may be happy and felicity. So every day is peaceful and fantastic.
