When your goals are larger than yourself!
This is a beautifully made movie about internal motivations and a sense of giving. When we rise to a level greater than our immediate needs, we give to others regardless of common paths, beliefs, race, or any worldly ambition. As we walk through life, if we are lucky, we will find a way to leave our mark for posterity. Whether anyone will know us personally, is irrelevant. We will simply have made the world a bit better by us being in the right place at the right time, and seizing the chance to do our part.This movie speaks to those concepts and images. It is funny at times, and always thought-provoking. It is a simple movie about a simpler time. The performances gain their strength in their honesty and purity.
