Finding Nemo
I watched Finding Nemo tonight with some friends upstairs, and here is what I learned.
-Finding Nemo is an analogy for parents learning to let go of their children. Marlin is a overprotective parent who has a hard time letting his child explore the big blue ocean. If we put this to human world, it would be exploring the great big world. Many parents fear their child leaving home so the children just linger staying dependent. I am glad that my parents trust me to go experience the big world. They let me make my own decisions and go jump on jellyfish, meet other fish in the sea, and travel to different areas in the sea.
-It also has an analogy for Nemo, for the little children who are leaving home for the first time. Nemo learns his own ability to swim when he leaves home. He is afraid to try because of the chance of failure. He learns to let go of his fear and have courage. We can learn to have courage as we learn to apply our skills, learn new talents, and look at new things as a new experience that will be for our good. He makes news friends along the way that challenge him to swim in new paths and that support him in whatever may come.
I felt weird thinking about these things while watching the movie, I knew I should of been enjoying it. I was laughing hysterically. But these thoughts of what the message that Finding Nemo was trying to imply kept running in my head.
Look at the title, Finding Nemo. They are not only finding nemo physically but emotionally. Marlin and Nemo both grow emotionally as they both develop a self understanding. Nemo finds his talents, his ability to swim. Marlin finds his humor, as he should have it as a clown fish. And he finds a new parenting skill. Trust. He develops a secure attachment rather than the insecure attachment style. In the end, everyone is happy (except Darla). Well that was my analysis of Finding Nemo.
