Psuedo-Insight: Knight and Day


I just saw the movie Knight and Day. Not a bad movie in it’s own right. There was one scene that stuck out to me. In it Cameron Diaz is following Tom Cruise to some secret meeting. What stuck me was that she was very intently tailing him, in a foreign country, from the hotel to a mystery location. Now, I am a person that is notorious for getting lost. I have to concentrate on where I parked and the surroundings when I go to the mall. In this movie Cameron is focused on following Tom. I kept thinking, “How is she going to find her way back to the hotel”?. I feel like there’s a parable to be found there. Something about it being easy to get lost when you focus solely on where you think you’re going without taking notice of where you are and where you’ve been. Who says you can’t learn from movies…
