Just talking about the movie, the "thinking" mentioned several times in this movie reminds me of the doubles in jojo. The stand-in messengers will attract each other, and the golden spirit will be passed down from generation to generation. From Heidegger, to Arendt, to the schoolgirl who looked at Arendt's eyes in the speech. "Thinking" does not bring any practical effect in life, we think because we have the ability to think. This makes me feel that there is an element of optimism in this film.
