[영화]컨텍트(arrival)다시 봤다

넷플릭스에 떴길래 브라이트와 연속해서 봤다. 다 알고보니 감동은 좀 덜하고 이해는 잘 되네.

끝을 알면서도 걸음걸음 발 끝에 닿는 길의 감촉과 눈에 닿는 풍경과 함께 걷는 사람이 좋아 걷게 되는 길.

끝이 있어 더욱 세상은 안타깝고 소중해지는 것이겠지. 누가 먼저오고 먼저가느냐는, 시간의 순서는 중요한 것이 아니다. 먼저 떠났다는 것만으로 남은자들의 서글픔을 모든 것의 기준으로 삼아버리는 건 선형적 시간 속에서 살아가는 인간들의 굳어진 사고방식이겠지....

문득 생각난 시 하나 쓰고 감상은 땡.


The Road Not Taken

by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
