The Road to the Center

The Fountain

The use of Profane/Sacred Time and Space in the Fountain.

"The Fountain" is centered around the idea that when Adam and Eve ate from the Tree of Knowledge they thrust the world into it's reality today, but if they had chosen to drink from the Tree of Life the world would be much different. Death and fear of it is a running theme within this film. The search for the preservation of life (with Tommy trying to save Izzy and find a cure for her cancer) in hopes to avoid death and all that comes with it as well as the search for eternal life (Tomas and Queen Isabella).

Place & Etymology

My center is at the beach. I never appreciated it until I moved away from the beach, but now I find it to be a sanctuary.


Full Name: Morgan Chelsey Dominica
Reason: my first name and first middle name is from when parents were married & spent their honeymoon in Cayucos. I was born 9 months later. Hahaha.
My second middle name is from my Paternal Grandmother. She became nun (Sister Mary Dominica) at the age of 16 in Chicago when her family died in an accident. She was sent to Los Angeles by her Mother Superior to "find her way" and she met my grandfather. They were married 3 weeks later and have been for the last 52 years. Commence the Awe's. :]



Morgan: Welsh and Old English. Means- "circling sea or great brightness; bright or white sea dweller". In German, Morgan translates to morning.
