i just watched Life Of Pi and really enjoyed it. i thought the part near the end when the tiger just stands in front of the jungle staring in before disappearing was really sad. i could understand where Pi was coming from when he was upset that the tiger didn't look back at him or anything. i was sad to see him go. two potentially dangerous animals completely alien to one another shared a tiny boat and endured storms, starvation and dehydration without killing each other. that must be some kind of connection. if the tiger genuinely didn't care, surely he would have just killed the kid eventually? he had plenty of chances as time went on.
i'm just fascinated by alien minds and find 'understandings' between humans and non-humans amazing.
