Vitus
The film I viewed was titled Vitus. The setting of the film is Germany. This is the original language of the film. It is a story of ordinary parents Helen and Leo Von Holzen who have an extraordinary son name Vitus. The film begins with an a scene establishing the intimacy of the relationship between Vitus and his grandfather. His grandfather discusses his top ten dreams with number one, the dream of becoming a pilot. Then shortly the next scene begins and we are at the home of Vitus watching his fourth birthday party. It is the viewers first introduction into what a wunderkind Vitus is. At the party everyone is singing happy birthday to Vitus. After making a wish, he precedes to open his presents. He receives a keyboard. As soon as he opens it he immediately he plays happy birthday on it establishing his keen skill on playing music from what he hears. Other common visual tropes used to establish his superior intelligence in this film are his reading and understanding of words by his reviewing of the dictionary, his skipping of several grades, later followed by his acceptance into an adult conservatory. Yeah. I'm sure you've seen it the whole Dougie Howser/Neil Patrick Harris thing.This films moves very slowly in the beginning. The film uses some other commonly employed Hollywood tactics to show how superior intellect ostracizes. There are the moments in the film where Vitus is in isolation from other children, awkward in social situations, his blazon disrespect for those in superior positions whom he has more intelligence, and only has the companionship of adults-mostly his mother, father, and grandfather. , As a parent, this film raises many questions: One, What does one do to foster the talents of his or her children? If you guessed quit your job to make sure your child is a master pianist,You're America's next top millionaire. So far I think that you can say this movie for me works as well as any sleeping pill could in getting me to sleep. Stay tuned later in the week for more on Vitus. Will I A: Go on Continuing to loathe this that I chose to view ? B. Will Vitus do something really extraordinary that will have me glued to this seat? or C Will the Pussy Cat Dolls be finally known as Spice Girls 2? Sike, just kidding. I'm not going to leave you in suspense. This film does take a turn for the better. As Vitus gets older particularly the age of twelve his heart and love prove to be the most extraordinary qualities about him. The love, heart, and mind that Vitus has extends to all those around him and enriches their lives for the better. In this film Vitus not only helps his grandfather live out his boyhood dream of becoming a pilot, helps to take his father from unemployment to CEO, and shows a beautiful young girl that true love had no numerical boundary.
