Luc Besson’s parents were the divers and Besson’s childhood dream was to be a dolphin trainer. But he had to give up his dream when he got wounded by an accident. So for Luc Besson, The Big Blue could be a cinematographic realization of his dream. This movie, a story about three people and the giant blue space of the ocean is simple yet profound. Jacques and Enzo try to go deeper into the sea as if they’re reaching its bottom. The story of these two friends and competitors at the same time make us contemplate on the topic of life and death through their act of diving. The film you should see again on a big screen even if you’ve already seen it.
