Oh man, Heris absolutely beautiful. One of the most interesting and thought provoking movies I've ever seen. The scenery, the score, the script, all just beautiful. Although it is meant to be futuristic, it feels like the present in some crazy, twisted way. The idea of the OS feels like a combination of technological advances that we use every day. Bluetooth headsets, Siri, text messages, facetime and to an extent Google glass. What if one day we could have our friends, family, loved ones right there with us every step of the way? This movie really did a great job of showing that weird thing where you can almost hear a person's voice when you read a text message.
SPOILER ALERT!!!
One of the things I found so fascinating was the scene where she said she was in love with 641 other people. I mean, what if our mind/soul/brain etc. was like that of an operating system, where any minute, we could connect to a global database and instantly determine our level of connection with every single person on earth? It really challenges the theory of "the one". Crazy.
And when she "brought to life" that dead writer. What if, in the not to distant future, there was a way to program someone's visions, beliefs, wisdom into a database where you could use the data to make a decision based on (for example) something your late mother or father believes? Oh man.
