From the flow of movie its clear, that he wont regain the poise of past and bliss it brings. Now he craves for meaningful relationship, and has no way of gaining one. The slide to misery has begun. He not only lectures persuasively, but acts consistently on what he says. Whether airport and hotel optimizations to backpack principle for avoiding material or human liabilities. I see no difference between men who are stand-in for aloofness and the idea of aloofness. Former are the real world referrents of the concept. Albeit, aloofness here refers to Gail Wynand kind of Shark, rather than Howard Roark the true individualist. With wedding BEGINS the hypocrisy for he reverses his stand, and therefore eventual fall. He mis-integrates the logical flow of lower level concepts into the assertion that ANY relationship is better than no relationship. (Clearly he was happy alone). (Flow from productivity achieved through rational choices to meaningful relationships achieved through rational choices). I see no evidence of the critique. Professionalism comes from Integrity. And Integrity demands that you dont act unless you have understood the value of goals action aspires for. Since he has not understood the value of human relationships(in the beginning), therefore he avoids them. He has understood the value of his work(We take along fragile people until they can swim). On second thoughts, let me correct the -ve connotation to a positive one - Irreconcilable dichotomy between personal and professional values TO - Indefinite dichotomy between professional and personal values is not possible.(As in Hank Rearden) On ladies I will only say, it boils down to integrity. Alex compromises on her real life husband(If we analyze her cynical description of partner over drink with Natalie in retrospect). But my interpretation is that she is not able to live through the compromise(nobody can), and seeks her idealism in the affair. On the other end, Natalie's actions(long range) are clearly determined by her independently arrived at value judgments. If its boy above job, she chases him down to Omaha. Once that becomes irrelevant, she swiches jobs as carreer is now her priority.

Wrote only trailers because I didn't want to follow up too deeply. Anyway, here is further clarification... - Malevolent Universe premise He ends up vividly unhappy, despite being a brilliant professional and pursuing his work immaculately throughout. - Perceptualizing of virtue Productivity His actions and thoughts on saving time in airport(From the structure of luggage to evaluation of queues and holding priority cards) - Selfish person as the lone wolf He projects men as Sharks, who live by thriving on other men. - Pragmatic approach to communication. Quick switching of contexts While explaining to bridegroom against cold feet, he reverses his value system completely. - Bringing air travel(or travel in general) essentials to life The brilliant top views of cities, skies and countryside. His suitcase and card swipes and airplane hostesses. The airport lounges and what comes along - Irreconcilable dichotomy between personal and professional values Projection that its futile for a thorough professional like Ryan to engage in long-term relationships.

Hi All, Here is my preliminary take on the movie.. - Malevolent Universe premise - Perceptualizing of virtue Productivity - Selfish person as the lone wolf - Prgmatic approach to communication. Quick switching of contexts - Bringing air travel(or travel in general) essentials to life - Irreconcilable dichotomy between personal and professional values ......

QUEST A search for identity. What is life An eternal strife Walk over the cloud On a razor sharp knife.. Uncountable medals, in a purposeless race Thoughtful existence, not just a chase Only this and no more? I definitely want to see the core... Driven by the aimless goal To fetch answer for my Soul Flicker inside, my only confide I begin a journey, the quest for life.... Anxiety within, confused outside Heart beats high with every stride Solitary steps, nothing to fend Nerves are tense, so uncertain is end... I encounter a word, known as ultimate destiny God it is called, religion its path Motivated by history, I suffix it in my quest Instead of solace, it deepens the unrest.. I travel through snowy mountains And read stunning book With trusted people I toiled But the quest unresolved, resides.. A venture is started, quest deep within Few conversations promise, and then give in Everything changes, but still remains the Quest I guess it needs nothing, but the Best. Not in mountains, neither in books In greatest endeavors it was not to be And then like a pilgrim I see Answer to The Quest is within me! Life is a path, milestoned by years Religion its synonym, for conquering the fears Me, my Complete Self, was the God I always knew It is nothing, but the Best within me & you. Rohin

Roarked How Howard Roark inspires me. I sit, confronted and quandering. Riddle in automatons. Task mammoth, beyond me. On Heller hill, I see you Over Enright blueprint, Stoddard model. Eiffel is you, transcending La' defense. My window view, Techpark skyrise. Its all you. Architect of gigantia, Researches that revolutionize. Flattening far and here.... ....Each musing dearest of dear. I see thee within me. "The Unmoved Prime Mover," I am rattled by you. Swooping the thoughts, Intriguing my essentia. Stagnant self, agog again. Rohin
