Between the Head and the Hands.

   "The Mediator between the head and hands must be the heart!" Who ever said that such a message has to be heard for someone to get it? A message can be sent through as simple as a look, a gesture, an expression! Metropolis is a silent movie; a silent experience, but as one of my favorite quotes says: "there is always a little truth behind every 'I don’t know', a little curiosity behind every 'just wondering', a little emotion behind every 'I don’t care', a little knowledge behind every 'I don’t know', a little pain behind every 'it’s okay', a little love behind 'I hate you', a little 'I need you' behind every 'leave me alone', and A LOT of words behind the silence."


   I've taken a theater course previously , and we watched Physical Theater, but this- this is a whole other story. Baffled, I admired the screen. I had no clue what was going on, until I let my senses take over. My eyes were wide open, and my ears were "all ears". It's like I was reading through the actors' looks, through their body movements, through them! It felt amazing to have the power to interpret so much when as little as nothing is being said! The music took me to a whole new level of excitement and indulgence that I have never experienced before. When the music's tone goes up, my heart beats take a race to keep up with it. And the fact that the movie was in black and white gave it a nice touch, it felt like I was in some other period of time, a much older one. Around me i was hearing gasps of annoyance and boredom, so I wondered why am I not bored too ? I wasn't bored because I let myself experience a new thing without a single prejudice. I went into that theater, I watched the movie, worked my brain and senses, and came out with a new experience to add to my list ! I let myself indulge, like I do when I do when I eat a bar of Galaxy!


   It was a nice experience that I'd surely repeat, if given the chance!
