(Gattaca) I never saved anything for the swim back

"I got the better end of the deal. I only lent you my body. You lent me your dream."
I hold Gattaca in my top fifty of best movies. It takes several watches to fully appreciate all of the details and symbolism that it offers. Andrew Niccol definitely knows how to tell a story, never missing a beat. Not to mention the score that is absolutely beautiful.
This is one of Ethan Hawke's best flicks. The story is inspiring and hopeful, yet bittersweet.
I hope that I have done the movie justice with this tribute. Enjoy.
Thanks to Occulent for reminding me of this gem, and for the change that a slight pique of interest can make.
Movie title: Gattaca (1997) Directed by Andrew Niccol
Premise: A genetically inferior man assumes the identity of a superior one in order to pursue his lifelong dream of space travel.
Songs:
1. Michael Nyman - The One Moment
2. Michael Nyman - The Departure
3. Luke Richards - A Final Sacrifice

Lessons for people that are born below average: - giving it 100% will get you half way - you’ll probably need to cheat the system in some way to get ahead - even after putting in everything you have, you’ll still need the help of other people to achieve your dreams. So surround yourself with the right people.

That line was the most profound & powerful of the film if you were a "Vincent" as a child. The symbolism of the silver medal turning into gold is the best visual. Truly there is no gene for the human spirit. Captures the metaphor of achieving one's dream through will, not accepting limitations imposed by society or your own fears & doubt.

What a beautiful edit! This is my favourite film of all time. It struck a chord so deeply within me that I can’t even explain, it’s so much more than just a dystopian sci-fi film.

POSSIBLE SPOILER: This movie had such a deep and profound effect on me. My life before this movie was filled with people treating me line an "in-valid". I didn't matter. What I had to say wasn't important. No one would believe that I could do what I wanted to do. I cry when I hear the music for the brothers swimming at night "I never saved anything for the way back!". The scene with Lamar towards the end and having just one person believing in you. This movie literally validated my life.

@TDOTSE1 8 ай бұрын

Honestly I feel the same way, this movie had an almost unbearable effect on me. Having that one person believing in you is all it takes.

@rinoceronte1 6 ай бұрын

That one person is you. And that’s all you need. All you need is inside you. Took me military service, struggling premed years, and moving to a third world country to study dentistry and then come back to the states to do it all over again, to understand this. I simply couldn’t accept living the rest of my life as the worst version of my self. But it took everything. I mean everything. Sometimes I feel guilt for achieving so much. As if I forcefully broke through a program version of me that was meant to be. Felt like I broke through the matrix.

@user-se2xg7tq5u 3 ай бұрын

I understand you brother. On the hardest days I sometimes go back to that scene for inspiration. Always found the most profound moments in my life were simple moments where people said they believed in me. Now being mildly successful and having wealth, I wouldn’t trade those moments for all the money in the world.

May I just add one fatal flaw in your awesome video , just before Hawkes epic line which is so moving ,, is so because Loren’s line sets it up perfect . Fearing death and in a panic his final words are how are doing this Vincent how have u done any of this ? In other words how it can it be that a man does not fear death more than the fear of losing a meaningless kids game. The blood brother family bond makes the impossible possible a big bro saves his little bro again . Love and the human spirit knows no bounds .Blood being thicker than water , heavier and always stronger.

100%!! But the issue with this in the film is that a “perfect” society of designed kids would absolutely get rid of left-handers… it is such a pain in the ass being left-handed in a society designed for right-hand dominance

Sometimes, something in your life triggers it when you take everything that you have in your life and focus it on the singular purpose. With such conviction, it doesn't matter what abilities you have; you will be exceptionally good at what you are doing because there is nothing else; it doesn't matter that your body starts slowly failing from overexertion; nothing is real anymore; nothing matters, only goal matters. You don't even have plans after achieving this goal because it's now the sole purpose of your life. It is beautiful in its simplicity. The only tricky moment is when the goal is achieved; you are still moving by the inertia, but you look back on the burned decades of your life and ask yourself, was it really worth it? Was it the right goal? The answer is better be "Oh Yeah!". So, choose your goals wisely if you are ready to put your life on it.

This was me. Lung scarred with tuberculosis, no company would hire me. Drifted from one dallar a day jobs in a third world country. The woman i loved, her family wont accept me. Ended up scavenging for food. Couldn't afford books. Would be chased by security guards for perusing books in a bookstore. Reading evrything i could, from old newspapers to refrigerator manuals. One day while working for a friend as a manservant, paid with food. I realized i could fake it. Faked it I did. Spent ten years in a company, becoming the best. Misspelled only one word in that time. Now i have what all men want. A cushy job. A trophy chinese japanese wife. But i can never wholly love these people. Who only sees the fake me.
