The Purple Rose of Cairo - 6

A film that deals with the issue of the distinctions between fiction and reality, between the idea of image and symbols and their correspondence with physical realities. The question is do we want stories and fiction to become real to us, "to be fleshed out?" Or do we want to escape reality in exchange for the illusion of perfection and happiness? And is that really where it is found? This film brings out the theme of imagination and inspiration, which I think is a key to human existence, without these there would be not feeling and knowledge of hope. Another question that the characters ask is about the creator of the story, whose story is this? A work of fiction, are we are own authors? This film is a great discussion starter that asks important and interesting questions.
