Happy Feet

Happy Feet is a nice animation movie about a penguin who can't sing his "heart song" to attract a soul mate through his vocal chord, but through his feet.

Consequence of environmental damage done by human is depicted in this movie, though it seems that the ending is not really part of the original script. At least that's what I think.

Few points to ponder.

Everyone living in this planet is unique and such should be accepted in the society as he is. In this movie, Mumble becomes an outcast because of who he is, and even his father had asked him to leave. Is it not fair?

Another point is that society decides what is good and bad, what is righteous!! People do what the society approves. People who conform to what the society thinks is good are readily accepted in the society. It takes something to happen before perception of people change.

Lastly, self sacrifice and letting go sometimes is a way of showing true love. Mumble tried to send back Gloria to her family, though his words hurt them both. But his actions were the only way to send her back home.

(My special thanks to my friend for lending her DVD for me to "kill" some of my idle time :D)
