機内にて。
今まで何度も目にするも、最後まで観れなかった今作。
弱者を容赦なく追い詰めて行く社会の理不尽さを克明に描いている。
テーマが重いのに対して、暖かい、ウィットな印象。
それは、シリアスな問題そのものではなく、それに必死に対抗しようとするサムとルーシーの親子愛に焦点が当てられているからだろう。
感情移入せずにはいられない役者の演技の素晴らしさと、全編に流れるビートルズのカバーが更にこの映画を心地良いものにしている。
ショーン・ペンの演技が本当に素晴らしい。

The flowering of creative life force
"The Flowering of Creative Life Force"
April 18, 1974
Daisaku Ikeda
"Today I should like to elaborate on what we mean by a
creative life. I am not about to launch forth upon a difficult
philosophical disquisition or try to give you a definitive
explanation of life. I only want to urge you to become cheerful
travelers on life's long road. Let me suggest something from my
own experience that may help bring honor and glory to your future.
"I feel most deeply that I have done something creative when
I have thrown myself wholeheartedly into a task and fought it
through unstintingly to its conclusion and thus have won in the
struggle to enlarge myself. It is a matter of sweat and tears. The
creative life demands constant effort to improve one's thoughts
and actions. Perhaps the dynamism involved in effort is the important
thing.
"You will pass through storms, and may suffer defeat. The
essence of the creative life, however, is to persevere in the face
of defeat and to follow the rainbow within your heart. Indulgence
and indolence are not creative. Complaints and evasions are
cowardly, and they corrupt life's natural tendency toward
creation.
The person who gives up the fight for creativeness is headed
ultimately for the hell that destroys all life.
"You must never slacken in your efforts to build new lives
for yourselves. Creativeness means pushing open the heavy door to
life. This is not an easy struggle. Indeed, it may be the hardest
task in the world. For opening the door to your own life is more
difficult than opening the doors to the mysteries of the universe.
"But the act of opening your door vindicates your existence
as a human being and makes life worth living. No one is lonelier or
unhappier than the person who does not know the pure joy of creating
a life for himself. To be human is not merely to stand erect and
manifest reason and intellect; to be human in the full sense of the
word is to lead a creative life.
"The fight to create a new life is a truly wonderful thing,
revealing radiant wisdom, the light of intuition that leads to an
understanding of the universe, the strong will of justice and a
determination to challenge all attacking evils, the compassion
gushing forth from the cosmic source of life and creating an
ecstatic rhythm in the lives of all men. As you challenge adversity
and polish the jewel that is life, you will learn to walk the
supreme pathway of true humanity. He who leads a creative life from
the present into the future will stand in the vanguard of history. I
think of this flowering of the creative life as the human revolution
that is your mission now and throughout your lives.
