The Other

The Other was so interesting, at first it crept me out because the movie The Others was very creepy. The entire scenario of the story was so interested how Borges went back to visit his younger self. The interesting point in this story is there is no clear conception as to whose perspective we are in. One self of Jorge's thinks that the rendezvous is simply a dream however the other one thinks its a reality. I think there is irony here because the younger self is the one who believes it is a dream. Usually a younger person would think something of this impossibility is a reality and an older person would simply fluff it away with some kind of scientific explanation. This has to do with sophistication. And maybe just maybe Jorge is sending a message that his younger self had the sophistication of a man. I'm sorry if I confused anyone it was kind of hard to express that in words. Overall great story.
