Day 3
Dale Stephens
Dale is an American entrepreneur who is the founder of the Uncollege. He thinks that recently we´re paying too much for college and learning too little. He is our second invited person to MPC. We discussed with him what we want to do in our life, and his experience by not going to school and how he achieved his goals and new ideas and how he disseminated them around the world.
84 Charing Crossroad
During the third day we watched our third movie, 84 Charing Crossroad. This movie is about a woman that wanted to read British literature titles but was unable to find any of these books in New York. She contacts a place in London to request these books. Frank the owner of this place (Marks & Co.) fulfills her request for the books and they and the staff of the place start a very nice relationship through correspondence. Helene the woman was very exited to visit them in London but she had to postpone her trip because she was high in debt. After that opportunity had passed it was to late to visit her friends and probably her love because Frank died and the bookshop closed. At the end she finally visits the Charing Cross Road.
In my opinion this movie was horribly slow. However, I liked the way Helene was so passionate about books and all she went through in order to have them. It persuaded me to appreciate the age that I´m blessed to live in because in a matter of minutes I can have whatever book I would like to read.
