One is the more obvious themes such as individual’s infatuation with always wanting to rewind time has cruelly been missed. This is shown through the use of the clock that runs the wrong way and Benjamin’s life itself. You have also overlooked a HUGE theme of you can be whoever you want to be. This is what I feel is one of the biggest themes. The juxtaposition between Benjamin and Daisy's life of how she is looked as an extraordinary person and famous for dancing when the truth is she is a normal person compared to the life of Benjamin who is literally living backwards, but he chooses a quiet life of being a normal man. This theme is also practically pushed in your face in the final scene when Benjamin is talking about all the people he met in his life. You should really watch the movie again and re-analyze because this movie is a true art piece and you did a terrible job. If you are going to make a site about analyzing movies please do your best work. I really hope this is not the best. I would be a must more interesting article if you put in more interesting themes the average Joe wouldn’t pick up on. You have missed a painful amount of detail and themes in this film.
