Around this time, the election between Al Gore and George Bush was going on. In this movie, Bruce Willis became a superhero after he survived a train crash. Throughout the movie he couldn't be touched. After all Bruce stood on top. In the election between Gore and Bush, there was a big conflict. When it came down to the end, Bush was still standing and he won. I think the message between the movie and the election is the better man wins all the time.
I think the filmmaker believed that good guys dont always win at the end. I personaly believe that because in this movie the bad guy seemed to be alive and the good guy died. It made it a good movie in most movies the good guy always win. So what the filmmaker wanted to do is give it a twist to make the movie more excited and interesting for the audience.
In your opinion, give me one reason why you think this movie relates to the Gore and Bush election? Are there other events that Unbreakable relates to? if so, tell me why or why not?
