Hi Anima, I read Ender's game some years ago and I loved it (it's not spiritual if someone wonders) |

Was in Interstellar today, very nice!
Silent moments especially, all in all a good time/space movie with hints to the black hole, also mentioned by yogis in the third eye as the gateway to cosmic consciousness (=
The best movie is relative, but it was for sure very good! :) |

This is a Russian film with English subtitles. It was filmed in the Slovki islands. It is about a Russian Orthodox monk who could perform miracles. A very good film. "The Island" http://youtu.be/ms4TXwIDutM |

There is an entertaining book by Dean Sluyter called Cinema Nirvana: Enlightenment Lessons from the Movies. Dean looks at things from a (mainly) Buddhist perspective. His book ranges from insights on Snow White and the Seven Dwarves to The Big Sleep, The Graduate, Easy Rider, The Godfather, Goldfinger and Casablanca.
For example, in Casablanca, Dean compares Rick's paralyzing choice between personal happiness and the fight for the greater good to the impossible choice faced by Arjuna, the warrior hero of the Bhagavad Gita. Rick's Krishna is Sam, the piano player(!). And the song that Sam plays, As Time Goes By, is more than just a romantic ballad, it's an "enlightenment hymn."

If you get the time or inspiration to watch another Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol this is a 1971 animated Oscar winner that's just 25 minutes but very artistic and inspirational:

Over Christmas I got a copy of an old favorite of mine "The Little Prince" - a 1974 movie made from the novella of Antoine Saint-Exupery - philosophical, spiritual, touching and with most beautiful music. Recommended for The Whimsical.

I love Saint-Exupery's "The Little Prince"! It has been a favourite of mine for over 20 years. |

So touching to watch. I'm a bit overwhelmed. Thank you, Sey.

The Celestine Prophecy, 2006, is an interesting spiritual movie. |

Cloud Atlas with Tom Hanks, Halley Barry and Susan Surranden. This is an amazing movie brought to you by the makers of the Matrix. Cloud Atlas caused me to shift, its a story of 6 characters, traveling through time and how they affect each other in each lifetime. The actors all have 6 parts, 6 stories, 6 lives, its an amazing movie that you will have to watch more than once. Brilliant, I cant believe it didnt get an Academy award, not even a nomination.
Let me know what you think or better or it makes you feel, eat pray YOga |

I loved Cloud Atlas as well although I had to watch it three times to get it but found it fascinating each time.
