Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Fountain is a 2006 Speculative Fiction film written and directed by Darren Aronofsky, starring Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz.The movie follows Jackman as the protagonist in three different settings. In The Present Day Tommy Creo is an oncologist searching for a cure for his wife's brain cancer, and is obsessive in his pursuit to the point of leaving his wife to deal with her illness on her own most of the time. He stumbles across an extract from a South American tree that has promising results. Meanwhile, his wife comes to terms with her fate and is trying to finish a book which also happens to be about the second storyline.In the second storyline, Tomás is a Spanish soldier during the Age of Exploration trying to defend his queen, Isabel, (again played by Weisz) from the Spanish Inquisition, when she sends him on a quest to South America where he is to find the Tree of Life.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })In the third storyline, Tom, "the Astronaut," is a bald, monk-like man in a space bubble containing land and a tree. He is sustaining himself off of an extract of the tree but at the same time is rationing to avoid having the tree die. It seems he believes the tree holds some connection to his wife, who visits him in visions. We learn eventually that he is headed towards a star that his wife told him about in the present day timeline. He tattoos an elaborate pattern up his arm to mark the passage of time, like tree rings.In each of the three storylines, he is dedicated to his mission to the neglect of all other things. The relationships between the three storylines are up for debate as there seem to be indirect interactions between the three versions of Jackman's character that suggest that they might be the same person or that one or two of the characters might be imaginary to the third.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })The story explores the themes of mortality and the natural cycle of life as well as the stages of loss.If you're looking for a certain Ayn Rand book, that's here. | |

Hotter and Sexier | |
The Fountain / int_108c268e | comment |
Hotter and Sexier: The graphic novel adaptation contains much more nudity and explicitly-shown sex than the film. Tom and Izzy are both naked when they're seen in the spaceship, and there's a sex scene between Tomás and Isabella, as well as a brief flashback to the first time that Tommy and Izzy made love. | |

Then you have present Tommy's wedding ring which Tomas got from Queen Isabella, which future-Tom plucks out of Tomas' hand after Tomas was bodily absorbed by the tree after Tommy lost it down the drain in the present. Once future-Tom attained enlightenment, he could apparently see all possible versions of his own story. | |

Heroic BSoD: In addition to Tommy's reaction to Izzy's death, if one goes by the "Tommy the MD = Tom the Astronaut" theory, the entire Astronaut persona is essentially a Heroic BSoD for him. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
The Fountain / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: For simplicity's sake, the trailer strongly gives off the impression that the multiple time periods are a straightforward case of reincarnation; in the actual film, it's a bit more complicated than that. Though never explicitly spelled out, it's strongly hinted that Brother Tomás (from the year 1500) is just a fictional character, and that Tommy (from the year 2000) and Tom the Astronaut (from the year 2500) are actually the same person. | |

Chekhov's Gun: Izzy's story about the first man in Mayan Mythology. In the end of the film, it's suggested that Tom is the last man and the story about the conquistador Tomas is "about" him. Then he appears in the story to help the conquistador, and is recognized by the Mayan priest as First Father. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
The Fountain / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: Sort of. The story is somewhat easier to follow in the graphic novel adaptation, as it includes a running narration by Tommy that clarifies a few plot points that were merely alluded to in the movie. It also includes scenes of Izzy's spirit visiting Tommy while he's in the spaceship, and a few flashbacks to the early days of their relationship. | |

The Book of the Film: An interesting case. When Aronofsy didn't think the movie would ever get made, he wrote it as a graphic novel and got Vertigo Comics to publish it. The film was eventually greenlit, so the book and the film were published simultaneously. Receiving great acclaim for its art (done by Kent Williams) it was arguably better received than the movie. | |

Adaptational Modesty: In Aronofsky's graphic novel version, Tom the Astronaut and Izzy are both naked in all of their scenes together in the spaceship (which is understandable, considering Tom spends all of his time alone, and Izzy is either a spirit or a hallucination in those scenes). In the movie, Tom the Astronaut stays clothed, and Izzy only appears as echoes of Present!Izzy and Queen Isabella during the future scenes. | |

As soon as he accepts it, he frees himself from this hell. And, if you believe that the Astronaut is not the same as Tom, the Astronaut's acceptance allows his present-day counterpart to finally move on. | |

Chiaroscuro: The film's art direction is very chiaroscuro. One wonders what eccentric doctor designed that hospital, with its violet walls, deep blue shadows and silver and gold accents? And all those Moorish screens, golden clouds of star-dust, and pitch black backdrops? One of the most chiaroscuro films ever made; just look at the poster. | |

The Fountain / int_786bf97f | comment |
Real Life Writes the Plot: It's no secret Aronofsky considers the film to be a very personal reflection on recent events in his life. The whole exploration of the life/death motif came about after his parents were diagnosed with cancer in 1999. He had to start coming to grips with the fact that our time on this world as living beings is always limited. | |

Living Relic: Tom the Astronaut, if he is indeed the same character as Tommy Creo, since he would have survived the destruction of Earth (or at least has left behind all of present-day civilization) by surviving in the spaceship-bubble via the Tree of Life en route to Xibalba. While he hasn't exactly gone insane, his 500-year lifespan and obsession with saving his wife has certainly made him abnormal and uncannily detached, and in the end he does have to overcome his Survivor's Guilt if he is to move on. | |

Rule of Symbolism | |
The Fountain / int_916c72b3 | comment |
Rule of Symbolism: The entire movie, but particularly Tomás "living forever" with the Tree of Life by sprouting flora all over, the star Xibalba bursting into a supernova just as Tom has reached his final epiphany (and abandoned the Tree), Izzy reincarnating as the Tree, Tom appearing as Adam / Buddha / the First Man and ascending in the lotus position, and Tommy planting a seed at his wife's grave. See Crossover Cosmology, above. The Inquisitor, overrunning Spain and seizing the queen (presumably ending her life) is a quite blatant metaphor for the tumor eating away the life of Izzy. Both Tomas in the past timeline and Tommy in the present has to let go of them. | |

Time Abyss: The camera pans up from Tom's wedding-ring tattoo to show more and more tattoos, suggesting the passage of vast amounts of time. The tattoos up and down Tom's arm look like tree rings or the Mayan Long Count, or the logarithmic timeline of geological epochs, with each ring containing bigger and bigger intervals. (Even if it's only been 500 years, imagine 500 years alone in space.) | |

Multiple-Choice Past: Whether or not Tom the Astronaut is actually a future version of Tommy Creo, for starters; also, since he intervenes in the past so as to take Queen Isabella's ring to replace the one Tommy lost down the drain, and influences Tommy to choose to take the walk with Izzy instead of focusing on his research, then planting a seed from the Tree of Life over her grave, there definitely seems to be several different versions of events, with it being unclear which is "real" or where the timeline goes from there. | |

My Greatest Second Chance: Tommy appears to get the chance to go back in time to when Izzy was asking for him to join her at the first snow, and this time he goes with her.

Mind Screw | |
The Fountain / int_bef696dd | comment |
Mind Screw: There are numerous ways of interpreting the relationships between the multiple timelines, and a few recurring plot elements blur the lines between them. A relatively straightforward explanation would be that Future Tom is Present Day Tommy several hundred years in the future by way of the mystical life-prolonging plant, the tree in the spaceship formed from the seed that Tommy planted over Izzy's grave, and all scenes with Past Tommy are part of Izzy's book. On the other hand, it is equally straightforward to say that Tommy finished the novel with the scenes in space, since by planting the tree he already accepted Izzy's death, though this depends on whether or not you believe Tommy was really at peace during his final scene, since the funeral scene has him insisting that he will refuse to accept death, and this would require him essentially reaching enlightenment in the fraction of seconds between the first and the last scene. Then you have present Tommy's wedding ring which Tomas got from Queen Isabella, which future-Tom plucks out of Tomas' hand after Tomas was bodily absorbed by the tree after Tommy lost it down the drain in the present. Once future-Tom attained enlightenment, he could apparently see all possible versions of his own story. Future Tom not only bodily intervenes in Izzy's story, he convinces present Tommy (via Mental Time Travel?) to change the present timeline to go for a walk with Iz at the very start of the film instead of staying in the lab, changing the plot. At the very end of the film, Izzy gives Tommy a seed-pod from a tree they visited on this walk (which never happened in the present day timeline), and Tommy plants it over her grave where it grows into a tree — the same kind of tree as the Tree of Life! | |

Five Stages of Grief: Tommy goes through these over the course of the film (notably, he seems to set a world record for the longest time moving between stages- it takes him about five-hundred years to finally get from Depression to Acceptance): Denial: I'll find a cure and you won't die! Anger: This isn't working! *argh* Bargaining: (with the hospital staff) I'll just need to run a few more tests! Depression: After Izzy dies. Acceptance: When he arrives at Xibalba. | |

Memento MacGuffin: Tommy's wedding ring is the same as the ring given by the Queen to conquistador Tomas, but he takes it off for work and then loses it. Once Izzy passes away, a grief-stricken Tommy takes Izzy's fountain pen and tattoos a "replacement" on his skin. Future Tom has that same tattoo slightly faded, plus a multitude others that show the passage of time. At the end of the film, he plucks it out of the conquistador timeline using his third eye. | |

Crossover Cosmology | |
The Fountain / int_ea8168f | comment |
Crossover Cosmology: Many Buddhist concepts, especially during the Astronaut plot, are intermingled with the decidedly Mayan setting of the Conquistador storyline. The star that Tom is traveling to is even named Xibalba, after the realm of the dead in Mayan Mythology. And they combine the story of the Mayan First Father (adding in a touch of Pandeism) with the story of Genesis (note the flaming sword bit). The Tree of Life also combines the magical trees and tree beings of Mayan Mythology with the Christian story of the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden and the fabled Fountain of Life (hence the name of the film). And yes, the tree itself is The Fountain. Oh, and Aronofsky is a Kabbalist (see π). | |
