I just finished watching the movie Birth starring Nicole Kidman. It’s been a dogs age since I’ve come across such a cinematic masterpiece. Birth is more than a psychological thriller…it’s a look into the seemingle possible. By seemingly possible I mean the notion of reincarnation. The theory of reincarnation is as old as religion itself.

The Egyptians, who in their time were the most advanced civilization on earth. They believed the soul migrated from body to body. Birth puts a spin on this idea, its a story about unwavering love. It indirectly poses the question to it’s audience, Is it better to be loved or to love? What are your thoughts?

The stylistic tone of the movie melds both auditory and visual senses. It invokes emotion – I believe that a cinematic experience is only great when it can mentally stimulate the mind in a way that opens ones psyche to a different possibility of life’s reality.
