Interesting review of the Polar Express. A trip into the outmost edges of reality.
Movie Review: The Polar Express: "Nowadays we are raising children who know too much too soon and put far too much stead in reason and logic. But as scientists have pointed out again and again, the universe is a mysterious place that goes far beyond our capacity to understand it. In fact, many of these rational men and women agree with the mystics in all religious traditions who honor the limits of our knowledge. As the Catholic theologian Leonardo Buff has put it: 'We never 'catch up with' reality itself. The real nature of mystery always evades our attempts to conceptualize it, and escapes the nets of our language and symbolism. Its depths are never plumbed. Mystery is always linked to passion, enthusiasm and all great emotions, in short, to life's deepest and greatest impulses.'"
