'The Quintessence of Life'

To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. That is the purpose of life.

So The Secret Life of Walter Mitty just came out on DVD and iTunes recently, and being quite a fan of Ben Stiller, of course i got myself a copy of the movie! The reason why i decided to blog about this movie is because it really has a unique and one-of-a-kind story that teaches people lots of values in life. The Secret Life of Walter Mitty packs some creative ways to film a movie as well as capture some of nature's beauty. Yes, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty brings you to some of the most breathtaking rural places on earth, such as Greenland and the Himalayas. Go on a journey with Walter Mitty (Ben stiller) as he tries to track his best friend/work partner Sean O'Connell (Sean Penn) to find a missing negative for the final issue of Life magazine.

To me, if filmmakers are able to explore and experiment on many different ways and angles to shoot a scene for a movie, their movie deserves to win an Oscar! The Secret Life of Walter Mitty shows just that. The movie captures plenty of breathtaking scenery that are able to make a nice photo. Here are some examples taken from The Secret Life of Walter Mitty:
