I Heart Huckabees
The film I Heart Huckabees is an existential comedy directed by David O. Russell. It follows a pair of detectives, Bernard and Vivian Jaffe, who investigate the meaning of life for their clients, including Albert Markovski, a young environmentalist, and Tommy Corn, an idealistic anti-petroleum-industry activist. As their investigations cross paths, the characters' lives become intertwined, and they are introduced to opposing philosophical perspectives, including universal interconnectivity and nihilism. The story culminates when a fire breaks out in Brad's house, and Tommy saves Dawn's life, leading to a new relationship and a re-evaluation of their lives. Ultimately, the film suggests that everything is inextricably connected, but that these connections arise from the often painful reality of human existence.learn more on wikipedia
