Equality--What I learn from the film Contact.

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 1998)

This is a wonderful movie. It scores business success, but it gave us more than entertaining. I like the theme of equality-- creature on earth & out of earth; man & woman (Ellie and her colleagues and her lover); Black & White (both are powerful officials).....even Science & Religion, both exist,and develop.
Jodie is excellent. I can't imagine any other actress can replace her to take up the role of Ellie. She looks clever, brave, devoted, and beautiful (quite important on the screen). I feel that she IS Ellie, but not she ACT Ellie. Matthew is good as well. He looks smart and intelligent. His role is not so important as Jodie yet he played the appropriate supporting part.
