Train Man
Here’s a movie we’ve been talking about this week, its called “Train Man
ensha Otoko””. Made in Japan ( now, that’s a good cliche) , its a story about a virgin geek who meets a girl on the train and his romantic pursuit of her. The cool thing about the story is how he creates a support system for himself by connecting with people through a chatroom. They totally counsel him on how to approach and romance this love interest. Its downright hilarious, and symbolic , I feel, in that he will never meet his support team in person. They are all out there in cyberspace, consoling him when he encounters roadblocks and cheering him on when he surges forward in his courtship effort.
I can clearly see the next step in this process as the Train Man being guided fully by the also unseen higher self or spirit guides , the only difference is they wont be texting him anytime soon. Or will they? Are the chat room advisors in this movie really non existent in 3 dimensional reality? Any opinions out there?
