'The Big Blue' 1988 dramatic classic was wonderfully written and directed by French Luc Besson and it was a fascinating and riveting story about two friends who shared the same love of the sea, one with skill and finesse and the other with a dangerously keen relationship with dolphins. This simple but special story was moving, symbolic and successfully shot as it was one of the most financially successful French films during the 1980’s.
Our leading lady was the adorable American blonde Rosanna Arquette who spoke both English and French in this film, German Jean-Marc Barr known for ‘Dogville’ and ‘Breaking the Waves’ and Morrocan actor Jean Reno whom you may remember from multiple films ranging from comedy to action some of which include: ‘The Professional’, ‘Godzilla’, ‘The Da Vinci Code’ and ‘Couples Retreat’. All three displayed a wonderful range of acting and it was easy for viewers to identify and feel for them on their journey.
Sometimes it seems easier to bond with animals when humans’ behaviours’ tend to disappoint over and over again. Although a challenge, it is better to be active in the present than obsess over the past and what’s already lost. Sometimes things have to end in life before something new can be born.
