The title of the movie The Big Chill is symbolic of the meeting of
|
|
the group of adults who have not seen each other in years. It alludes to
|
|
the circumstances which brought them together as well as their reaction to
|
|
the meeting.
|
|
|
|
The movie The Big Chill is about a group of adults who were once
|
|
very close in the past but have drifted apart throughout the years. They
|
|
are brought together under an unfortunate set of circumstances: One of the
|
|
group, Alex, had committed suicide. This is the first instance in which
|
|
the title, The Big Chill, is alluded to. It is symbolic of Alex's death,
|
|
and the cold experience that was needed to bring the group together once
|
|
more.
|
|
|
|
The group had a "reunion" after his funeral, only to find out that
|
|
nobody really knew each other since their college days. This is symbolic
|
|
that their friendships had been frozen, or dead, perhaps, since the group
|
|
"broke up" many years ago.
|
|
|
|
Another possibility is that the title symbolizes each individual's
|
|
stolid realization that a certain part of their lives was dead, or frozen.
|
|
This could refer to Alex, who had killed himself. Or it could refer to
|
|
their friendship, which pro bably dwindled down from an occasional phone
|
|
call to a seasonal letter or card, and eventually to virtual
|
|
non-communication.
|
|
|
|
The title could even have yet another "hidden" meaning. It could
|
|
refer to the group's total loss of communication with Alex. This could
|
|
have led to the point where nobody was able to see anything wrong with him,
|
|
because they just were not a round to. Chloe, Alex's girl friend, probably
|
|
did not notice because she did not know him as well as the rest of the
|
|
group. But the rest of the group unintentionally gave Alex "the cold
|
|
shoulder" when he was in the greatest need of help.
|
|
|
|
Another instance of The Big Chill was when Meg asked Sam to have
|
|
her baby. Sam coldly refused. Meg felt a bit rejected, even though she
|
|
knew Sam only said no because he respected her. Sam, however, was very
|
|
surprised and probably flattered to be asked.
|
|
|
|
Overall, the title of the movie The Big Chill is symbolic in many
|
|
ways. All of these ways are important to the meaning of the movie, if
|
|
looked at symbolically.
