Layers of Truth and Beauty

Rating: 8/10 (22 December 2016)

The plot of the movie was one of the best ones that I have ever seen especially the fact that it treats in a dramatic and cinematic way one of the oldest and never answered mysteries of life and existence: what is real? and what is True - with capital T-. DiCaprio has done a great job and his acting was canonical here in that movie along with other actors. Because the theme of the movie is of philosophical nature it could not fully escape the paradoxes and the illogical and this is normal due the complexity of that topic. This made me think whether we are in a dream or we are like the inception in a augmented reality that we created for ourselves and how we know that we are really awake or dreaming. Maybe death as the kick of inception for us; it only awakens us to another layer of reality. The soundtrack of the movie is also inspiration with one of the french master pieces of music "Je Ne Regrette Rien" for Edith Piaf.
