Gattaca Post - Garret

I found that these two movies linked together very well, in both movies there were imposing a clone in some way. In the movie Gattaca, Vincent didn’t have the right heart to fly to the moon, which was his dream. What I mean by didn’t have the right “heart” was that he had a heart problem and wasn’t fit and it showed in his blood work. So what he did was he took the blood work pretending to be someone else that had the right blood work and pretended to be him. Something he is not.  In the house of scorpions he is actually a clone of El Patron but he doesn’t want anyone to know because he thinks that he will treat him differently because he is not “normal” and this is exactly what happened to Vincent in the movie Gattaca. What they both show is that in both The house of the Scorpion and Gattaca, both Vincent and Matt posed as someone they weren’t and people didn’t even know that they weren’t. What this shows is they treated them perfectly normal even know they were not. They were treating them differently for no reason, and maybe they should realize that both Matt and Vincent were not so different after all. In both Gattaca and The house of Scorpions, love conquers all is the main theme. In the House of scorpions its about how he loves Maria and how she loves him, even tho she said she will probably go to hell for it she loved him. In Gattaca its a bit different kind of love, but still. In Gattaca, Vincent had a great love for space. He wanted to travel to space ever since he was a little kid, he knew with the heart problem that it was almost impossible for him but his heart was the only thing keeping his dream alive, the love for space. Like he said, he left nothing for the swim back.
