“It is portrayed as a slow spiral down with descending to sitting at home and being secluded by not letting anyone in. There was also a loss of relationships and a struggle to be open to help, such as with the character’s wife and butler. It can be hard to accept help when you’ve been so high up in the chain and to admit that you’re not at your prime anymore. The film portrayed the power of humility and knowing when you need help.” – Tiffany
“The main character tried everything he could but still couldn’t succeed. He learned to cope with failure and overcome it, with relationships being the key. The film displayed how to manage expectations and cope with not succeeding the way you wanted to, along with the importance of relationships to help you process difficult emotions.” – Britney
“That slow spiral is relatable. When you’re in a downward slant, you often don’t realize it until it gets really overwhelming. It’s really important to realize you have these important people in your life willing to help.” – Hye Won
“What a cinematic masterpiece at the end, when you start to hear sounds and music.” - Tiffany
“Reminds me of dystopian sci-fi films.” – Britney
