Let’s Unfold “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty”

  • January 27, 2014 7:53 AM IST



    This adventure-comedy-drama-flick, starred and directed by no other than one of the most hilarious comedians of this generation Ben Stiller, talks about the amazing journey of a negative assets manager cum daydreamer in search of a photojournalist who captured what he denominated as “Quintessence” of Life. This special photograph was the Hail Mary for Walter Mitty and the magazine company he was working for as it prepares its final print issue. Like life with humps and bumps, Walter Mitty suffered disappointments along the way in not finding the photojournalist. Such failure took away his job and his long time career. Worse, he became disconsolate by the unexpected reunion between his ultimate crush, a co-worker at the magazine, and her estranged husband. Thinking that he lost everything, he decided to continue with his quest to find the photojournalist to save his honor as well as regain his zest for life. It turned out, however, to the greatest surprise of all that his mother holds the key to finding the missing link to the photojournalist – Walter’s wallet with the picture that the photojournalist amazingly captured. Expectedly, the film culminated in a rather moving drama when Walter got back not only the love of his life but also his coveted career with the magazine cover showcasing him instead.

    Taking a break from the sci-fi movies around, this film will bring fantasies to life. It will take you to places you have never been and will bring you the energy to boost your life. It speaks of the importance of reputation and not doing anything to dismantle it. Watching this film is a great escape from the bustle and hustle of busy life. Although I felt some ingredients missing to evoke enthusiasm for travel thrills, in fine, nonetheless, this movie speaks of hope, love and life.
