Exploring a Spiritual Journey: Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie Embark on a Predictable Soulful Voyage in Director Kogonada's Disappointing Deviation
In the heartwarming movie, "A Big Bold Beautiful Journey," directed by Kogonada and written by Seth Reiss, two characters embark on a transformative road trip aimed at reconciling with their past traumas and potentially finding love in each other. The film, which stars Margot Robbie as Sarah and Colin Farrell as David, was filmed in the scenic landscapes of California.
The story unfolds as Sarah, who had a brief flirtation with David at a wedding, finds herself on a soul-searching journey alongside him. Destiny and a magical GPS system have brought them together, guiding them to various doors representing memories that have shaped their lives.
For Sarah, one such door leads her back to a time when she was unavailable for her mother's death due to an affair with a professor. Another door revisits a prelude to a breakup, shaping her guarded, pessimistic view on relationships.
Meanwhile, David's door leads him back to his high school, where he relives his agony over a girl in his school play. The film delves into emotional and psychological insights related to regret, grief, and fear of commitment.
"A Big Bold Beautiful Journey" suggests that traditional monogamous couplehood is the one true goal of such crucial work. However, it also urges people to see their foibles and worries as dynamic parts of themselves rather than unmoveable millstones.
An uncommon dialogue in real life, but a heartwarming moment in the film, features a doting boyfriend who tells his girlfriend that he has made reservations at "your favorite restaurant."
The screenplay, written by Seth Reiss, masterfully weaves together these emotional narratives, creating a captivating and thought-provoking film that encourages individuals not to let their baggage halt forward momentum. Instead, it invites them to embrace their past, learn from it, and move forward with a newfound understanding and appreciation of life and love.
