RE: ADSactly Movies - Lessons from Movies #2: In Time (2011)
this film is not without its shortcomings, but its main idea is simply magnificent.
In our world and in our time everyone knows such a famous formula: "Time = money". This film is literally based on this idea. The main resource that each person is allocated to the earth is time. And that's how we manage the time, talking about our solvency. You can sit on the couch or mzuchat advanced technology - in the end you will spend the same amount of time, but you will achieve different results. So I see the regularity of using time as a resource.
In the film, time is the main calculation unit (similar to money in our world) and the one who is richer has an almost unlimited amount of time. The poor as always remain without everything. It's sad, but it's a fact that needs to be accepted. I like the basic concept of the film and the comparison with the money that we are shown.
My subjective opinion is that the main resources of any person are time, information, personal qualities (charisma) and money. But as we know that the difference from the film is that death can not be defeated for any money. And time in our real world is an irreplaceable resource. It is valuable in that it can not be restored. Therefore, it is priceless.
I believe that in the future, thanks to technological progress, humanity can turn time into sleep (it will be either robotic technology or genetic engineering). But now we can enjoy time and such good and meaningful films.
Thank you, I liked it :)
