SEVEN POUNDS (Gabriele Muccino, 2008)



Excellent use of flashbacks in order to understand the feelings and thoughts of the protagonist, Ben (Will Smith), whose only aim in life is to help other people. But this help is due to something that can be known through the different flashbacks.

Objects are also very important in this movie and the mystery which exists around some of them. Therefore, the offscreen is very important and relevant for this movie.



It starts at the end. That is, the first scene is the last one but incomplete, and the rest of the movie (a constant flashback and also falshbacks inside the main flashback) is the explanation of this end.

Here you have the trailer of the movie, just in case it motivates you to watch it. I have to say it's worht to see it.



And finally a video of the movie, a kind of summary I have founs in the Internet. But it will be better if you do not watch it, unless you have already seen the film.
