Phone Booth - 4

This movie started a good discussion of responsibility and power of a telephone conversation. This particular phone conversation in the movie is somewhat different than most, but what is the right and good human response and action to influence others, and possibly their life or death. It's just a phone right, and just communication. These topics always give insight into truth and lying, and are we really in the know about these things and are do we take action or are we reserved into apathy? This is not a problem to be solved but a story to be lived, and ultimately a matter of moral meaning. Does my life mean anything at all, and why does the possibility of the question make me think that it does? Living and learning.
