it might be about living...
I wish I was in that movie where I just wake up and suddenly come alive.
It's that scene where the lead has decided they have had enough of their current situation and they somehow have the power to rise above and start taking action.
If they were stuck at a dead end job they leave it or they suddenly are kicking ass and taking names and every one notices and they make their job amazing for themselves and finally get the respect they deserve.Or the dowdy unhappy girl with no friends suddenly becomes the knock out and has more friends and admirers than she knows what to do with..
That is how those movies usually end, but the part I really like is when they are home alone making the changes to get them there. Suddenly they have this drive and they are moving forward and making things happen, and we watch the fragile transition and we cheer for them just a little.
Like Kevin Spacey in American Beauty (yes- that turned out badly), but before then he quits his job, starts working out, smoking weed and having a fantastic time coming back to life(until the unfortunate end).
Sometimes I just wish there was that camera there, and the audience watching as I come back to life.
