Their has never been a movie that has influenced my life more than this film..I remember watching this in theatres when I was 15 and the first thing after seeing the movie was grabbing a camera that used to be my brothers... now being 22 and about to finish my post-grad in art (Photography) and the previous year being one of 3 students to be nominated for the New Zealand Institute of Professional Photography student photographer of the year..I can't thank this movie enough for how it's shaped my life. Update (2024): Wow I forgot about this comment I posted..Thank you for all the kind messages..still going strong going into 2024!
When I saw that movie for the first time more than 6 years ago, I took the decision of leaving my job and study another language and travel outside my country. Since, I've been in more than 20 countries and I am learning my fourth language. Best decision ever!
@@saul812 discipline, i took an intensive Italian course, 10 months studying 6 days per week 3 hours per day after work, then I moved to Italy to do a master, there, I perfected my english and Italian, I avoided all spanish speakers (my mother tongue it's spanish) in order to improve, at the beginning it's difficult because you isolate yourself but with time it improves. Now I am living in france since 2 years with my italian gf and I am learning french, b2 level right now. Life it's good and there is a lot out there to discover.
As a photographer, the scene with the mountain lion cat made the most difference in my life. I learnt that sometimes the camera can get in the way of a beautiful moment and so remove it. Sometimes you just need to live in the moment
This is my favorite movie for the last two years I have watched it over and over. It has helped me to see as I have raised my family, given up my dreams, the God sees me. He sees the beauty of sacrifice. Love is sacrifice. And it’s worth it. Don’t buy the b.s. that culture tells you. Self fulfillment leaves you empty.
so true..the least appealing parts of this amazing movie is when "ben stiller comedian character silliness is inserted, ( fight scene over stretch armstrong as an example) i felt it took away from this amazing movie
@@tomehrhart157 Ben Stiller did an amazing job directing this and pouring his soul in such an amazing piece of art. So idk, it was his decision to play
From someone who turned 20 this year. With everything that's going on with the world. I'm most scared of just existing. Instead of actually living. Because I've always wanted to travel around Europe. All the best and stay safe :).
@@zokomonofficial40 No, I mean if there was a point to that ordeal or you are just going around preaching random historical facts in RU-vid Comment section
@@the_crypter I just said it because it came to me I've studied about rome during the reign of Augustus and his successors ,how christianity was a growing religion and also how they were killed for their beliefs so don't mind me it's just knowledge You use it or lose it
I remember a few years ago a picture of a woman holding her new puppy and a second picture of her a year later with her massive and grown dog in her arms. She looked 10 years younger than the first picture and happier. That dog changed her life
When I watched this movie for the first time, me and my friend mocked the guy who suggested this to us. He just smiled politely and went. Years later I watched the movie again and I called the same guy and asked him why didn't you get angry on us when we mocked this amazing film . He again smiled and said I know you guys should reach that point in your life to enjoy and understand what this film truly means. And he's absolutely true, when I'm older and torn apart by life, this movie was a like a breath of fresh air. Thank you Ben Stiller and thank you my friend...
When self-imposed losers realize it’s almost too late, to live. That’s what the film is about. But it equally won’t tell you what the conclusion is. Losers think it’s travel… hahaha.
Does anyone else feel something very deep and profound from this film, or even this song? I don’t know what it is specifically but it always nearly brings me to tears. Maybe I am supposed to be doing something else with my life and this film is revealing that.
You will die one day, and on your death bed you will regret the things you wish you did. So do the things you want to do. Write a list of the activities you want to do or the things you want. You only get one life, use it according to how you want to live it.
I'm right there with you. This is my favorite movie and every time I watch it I feel like I can relate some how. Don't know how or why but it's there every time I watch it.
This movie makes me emotional because its so relatable, so many people want to just leave everything and go live it just seems impossible to make that leap
of course it’s impossible to make that leap if it doesn‘t even exist but is just an accumulation of steps and circumstances to take. Focus on one step at a time and let life do its magic. :)
This movie inspired me to travel to Iceland and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. Also, I've been feeling very suicidal lately and this song just popped up on my homepage and literally saved my life. So many good memories with this song and movie. Thank you
Here I am, nearly 10 years later. I, sincerely, believe that this movie is a masterpiece. Though this stunned me when I first watched it, as I never expected something so profound, something so life affirming to be found within a Ben Stiller film. Till this day The Secret Life of Walter Mitty is, still, one of the most beautiful movies I've ever had a pleasure to watch.
As a fellow daydreamer that has never taken a risk, without much to put in my "been there done that" section, this movie is an absolute inspiration. Truly a masterpiece
this movie is about life it's self. put yourself in Walter shoes. when are we going to wake up take a chance and live life and do things we only dream of and never think twice about doing it. no matter where you are in life, age or situation. give life a chance explore and dare yourself to feel alive just a little and turn those dreams, thoughts, and imagination into reality. LIVE!!! my friend Just live.
"If I like a moment, for me personally, I don't like to have the distraction of the camera...I just want to stay in it... right there, right here." This line specially inspired me to quit all my social media where I used to share all my thoughts and activities. I was more concerned about my virtual life rather than actual reality. But, nowadays, I don't capture every special moment, I just enjoy it diving deep inside that moment.
This film is a masterpiece. The perfect marriage of message, music, and cinematography. Criminally overlooked but then again, 'beautiful things don't ask for attention'.
This edit made my day. This song and this movie have had a major impact on my life and seeing them put together like this brought me to tears. thank you.
fun fact incase ya didn't know i SAID IN CASE >:( okay now thats out of the way this song is made by the same guy who did the ... almost the whole music track for the movie :y
It's been a very hard life these past three years, slowly being forgotten, and forgetting what it's like to be happy. I feel like sometimes life is too much, too empty, but seeing this gives me hope to be happy and fulfill that promise I made to myself a long time ago. Whoever made this, this movie, this song, thank you for giving us this Thank you
After watching this movies, I realised that to live truly, you have to get out your comfort zone, explore, try new stuff, open your mind and travel. I am grateful to this movie, in a month from now, I'll be travelling for the first time alone.
I've been listening to this song nonstop for the past few weeks and as much as I love the song and movie I find myself reading all the comments and leaving the video happier realizing this movie has meant as much to other people as it has to me.
Man thanks for this upload. I missed so much...13 years trucking...gave up everything, friends, a home, just go go go. Worked so much I never even knew this movie existed. I'm going to watch it now.
My fiancé got me a brown leather wallet with the quote, "because beautiful things don't ask for attention." This was a movie that really stood out to us because it's a meaning we both really understood
A friend of mine suggested this movie and we watched it together on a laptop. Today, he's not in touch but every day I thank him for recommending this movie. To be honest, he taught me to live my life. Thanks buddy
Life is about courage and going into the unknown. One will get lost when staying in the norm for too long, it will blind you. It's always nice to refresh once in a while and carry on, you'll find something new that might suit you better. ps: I wish there is a love button for this soundtrack and movie.
In 2020 I had lost a lot, from friends to family, and essentially had to build myself mentally and physically back up. For two years I worked on building myself back up; making mistakes left and right, but always learning from my mistakes and embracing change. Back in March I had applied for an internship, I started thinking that I wasn’t qualified for the internship. I had applied to over 60 internships and either got denied or ghosted, but when I opened up the application portal for this internship I started getting major imposter syndrome. I turned on this song and when I heard the part “do whatever just to stay alive” I said screw it and applied. After two years of hard work, here I am now with a NASA internship, as happy as i could be, but humbled with the fact that I won my fight. When in doubt just remember, do whatever just to stay alive.
I love the detail of how he looks more comfortable and confident with himself after his trip. He was like a whole new person; more decisive about his decisions instead of just dreaming about it… it’s impressive how travel the world helps you to improve your personality
Every time I feel my life doesn't move as smooth as I imagined, get depressed, recover from it, and start to replan my life, I listen to this song. Life is not so that easy but that's the reason how you can be happy.
I've watched this multiple times already, and recently it popped up on Netflix, prompting me to watch it again. It serves as a powerful reminder that life is short; we should explore the world, savor every moment, and maximize our enjoyment. Let's not merely dream but take decisive actions to make those dreams a reality.
I remember this was the first movie I could see in HD... What a Wonderful way to start. It has inspired me for all this years to do what I love, to care for everyone in my life and to never give up on myself. This amazing gem has helped me live through my depression and anxiety reminding me that it is NEVER too late to do what you need to do... Such an underrated movie
There's a rhythm in rush these days Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams In a world gone shallow In a world gone lean Sometimes there's things a man cannot know Gears won't turn and the leaves won't grow There's no place to run and no gasoline Engine won't turn And the train won't leave Engines won't turn and the train won't leave I will stay with you tonight Hold you close 'til the morning light In the morning watch a new day rise We'll do whatever just to stay alive We'll do whatever just to stay alive Well the way I feel is the way I write It isn't like the thoughts of the man who lies There is a truth and it's on our side Dawn is coming Open your eyes Look into the sun as the new days rise And I will wait for you tonight You're here forever and you're by my side I've been waiting all my life To feel your heart as it's keeping time We'll do whatever just to stay alive Dawn is coming Open your eyes Dawn is coming Open your eyes Dawn is coming Open your eyes Dawn is coming Open your eyes Look into the sun as the new days rise There's a rhythm in rush these days Where the lights don't move and the colors don't fade Leaves you empty with nothing but dreams In a world gone shallow In a world gone lean But there is a truth and it's on our side Dawn is coming open your eyes Look into the sun as a new days rise
This movie really helps me to change my self alot , discover more about me and get back from the darkness again i lost many friends since 2019 till now ill remember them with our happy memories to gether miss you all guys till we all gather again . thank you all for making such movie
7 years ago this movie introduced me to some of my favorite songs and artists including this one. Favourite movie of all time. Thank you for making my life less miserable.
I've always loved this so much. It's a perfect example of what movies and music can make you feel. This is a beautiful combination of both and I can't stop replaying it
The algorithm put this video in front of me for the first time in 2024, days after losing my youngest cousin at 51yrs so suddenly. Not sure if he ever saw this movie, but he lived his life every day as though it were his last with so much gratitude, and Sunday morning it was. Missing you so much Mark, but happy to learn from your beautiful example and that of this amazing movie!
In my humble opinion, this is easily one of the best movies ever made (The Secret Life of Walter Mitty). I've seen it over 10 times and it never gets boring! Plus the soundtrack is truly awesome!
This movie may not be the ultimate 10/10 in my list but it’s really special and one of my favorites. Soundtrack is absolutely beautiful, helped a lot in different situations, operator’s work during the skating scene, the way Ben Stiller uses expressive mimic and rigid gestures to simplify the character for us at the first half of the film and more toned down and slow mimic and micro movements in the second half to share the result of a big change in his character’s life… It’s just brilliant.
I was away from home, from my wife and kid for the first time, this movie and all of its OST saved me. To have something to look forward to and know it in your heart what you do it for.
very underrated movie imo. I don't know the message that the film or the director wanted to send, but if it was to risk doing the things you've always wanted to do and live every day of your life as if it were the last (whitout regret) at the most, I can say message received.
Often times when I’m out with my family and we go out to a place that has a nice view, I’m the one that doesn’t pull out my phone most of the time. I just stand there and watch the view, trying my best to not interrupt the moment and take in everything I can. Life goes by fast so having these moments where everything slows down in the world makes all the difference then taking a quick photo and moving on.
The film does not numb my mind with endless entertainment and action. No huge explosions, attractive actors, grand music scores. Rather, the movie itself becomes the mirror to which I look into. It creates a sync between its audience and the film -- it is able to form that bridge because everyone can relate. Amidst the endless grind and conforming to what is considered socially successful, we all hide behind a persona that we "settled" for. By watching Walter break free from his chained life and put himself through a journey we also drift away with him, sparking a slight hope of "one day". I hope we can all truly break free and live life. Cheers.
This movie really changed my life. After watched it. I went to run a marathon at Mongolia then running across Bikal lake at -25c in Siberia. A must watch for everyone.
I quit my job and entered the firefighters... and then had to leave a month later, because it just wasn't made for me. Absolutely do not regret it. Without doing it, I would be regretting my whole life for never even trying. Now I'm getting comfortable in my old job, discovering it actually is quite right for me after all 🙂
Strive to be better and never forget to open your heart, mind, and soul to life, love, and adventure. Such a deep and wonderful feeling comes from this song and movie.
I remember seeing the Aurora Borealis for the first time 4 Years ago on a Trip to the North Cape in Norway. It was unexpected and in a Place too far South for regular appearance. When we realized it, I immediately started to set up my Camera to get a good shot. It wasn't working, and I remembered Sean´s Quote. I left the Camera, cracked a cold one, joined my Friends who were laying on Tables and Benches and for the rest of the Night not one Word was spoken.
I love this movie. Beautifully crafted. The actors, the script, all the plot seems to fit perfectly. As much as I want it to success and well-known, huge part of me want to keep it to myself. Cheers :D
