Although the story line was based on the life of grad students, but surely you are not gonna feeling lost, if you are not a grad student! Majority, approximately 42%, of the students left grad school without having a degree. It sounds really weird as the most academically sound students go for higher education and found their place in grad school. The thing that strikes me most as all the grad students come up with a dream that they are going to change the world with their ground breaking research and their name will be on the front wall of history for their contributions to mankind. But the system of graduate school let them forget that they are missing the "key". If education is the "key" to "success", then where's that "key". It's nothing but the self- enthusiasm for your research topic. At the end of the film, two major characters, Winston & Cecilia, found that if you are not change yourself outside the "norm" of your system, how will you change the whole world one day? Otherwise, you can't change the next person of you! Watch this film for self realization & try to believe that "Life is Good" after all those actions and deeds, whatever or however we like it or not!
