I watched this movie when I was 8 years old, and I didn’t understand it that much. Now I’m 16 and this had such a huge impact on me

[@apseudonym]

Yes. When I first saw this movie I was fifteen and couldn't make sense of all of the suffering and emotions I had to endure. I was thought it was unfair, I was angry at everything. Now that I am thirty things make sense, I have perspective. I can look at my suffering and say “I sure am glad I suffered back then and not now that the stakes are higher.” I learned so much about myself, my personality and what I am capable of but only because I suffered. If things were okay I wouldn't have learned, I wouldn't appreciate the good that exists in my life now.

[@handsolo1076]

[@peachscreams]

"if i wanna fly I'll find a way to fly" is such an understated but beautiful moment in this movie. probably my favorite line in the whole film. All of them are looking for that same relief, and their sorrow comes from feeling like they have to fall into some kind of structure that they just don't work with. And he's the first one to realize you don't need any of those structures to be who you are/happy.

This is my favorite style of advice. Not some sugar coated unrealistic advice about one day achieving your dreams. But making jokes about how we all suck and suffer and it's just something we gotta do. And the little playful insults scattered throughout, "you're not as stupid as look." Thats the kind of therapy that really helps me at least, just knowing we're aren't alone through the pain.

This whole ending and very scene was shot in my hometown of Ventura County, California. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve rode my bicycle out to the end of that pier and contemplated my life like Dwayne here, with my dad being the Steve Carrel character in my version I just watched this movie for the first time in the last month, and I absolutely adored it. I was completely caught off guard when it showed them getting to Ventura County. It’s perhaps more sentimental that I no longer live there anymore, and when I watched the movie, it made me miss the place.. 😞😞

[@cowl6867]

I have a cousin who was in love with music at a young age but his parents forced him on becoming a lawyer and guilted to get a good career since he can't even hear through one of his ears which hinders his abilities to listen and play music. So he went to law school for 4 years got his degree and shoved it infront of his parents and went back to school to study music composition. He is now an award winning film composer with many beautiful compositions under his belt. I look up to him a lot. Even with all the obstacles, he still set his mind on doing what he loves and now he's teaching me the same. Love you David ❤

[@emorydaniel9084]

This movie is a good lesson in social and societal norms. Every person in this movie is driven to what’s important to them, but yet because their drive doesn’t fit within cultural norms, they are shunned and ostracized. But Dwayne realizes the truth that everyone learns in the ending dance scene: you have to try. People may not like it or accept it, but pursuing the things you love makes all the difference, despite the suffering

[@southbeachtalent]

Just came for this scene, been awhile since I've watched this movie. I would argue Greg Kinear's character is exactly what society expects. Positive thinking, success on the mind 24/7, all while supposedly being a consummate family man. He's the portrayal of what America expects of a man his age. The reality doesn't match the expectation. His wife and family hates him, because he's never true to himself. Literally all he is is the embodiment of expectations and norms from a society that truly treats him as a joke. The dancing scene is the breaking point for all of the characters imo. They drift away from expectations and just do what feels the most natural. To be outcasts and just support your oddball family

[@MrCholoPants3415]

[@razkable]

“Prime suffering years.”

[@motionsuggests]

I remember this scene as being one of my favourite and somehow pivotal for the movie to me. Love seeing the Nietzsche teenager and Proust uncle find their common ground as the movie progresses. I'm like Dwayne, the younger man (albeit older now) who has explored nihilism, existentialism, absurdism, etc. But I gotta say I'm jealous of him for having an older role model who can talk to him at his level of depth (philosophy, literature..) None of the "role models" in my life provide this to me, unfortunately.

Can you imagine if Frank had successfully killed himself because he didn't win a stupid grant? He would have been completely unable to be there for and inspire his nephew after the latter inevitably figured out the color blindness, and there might have been two suicides.
