When someone does something nice for you, don't pay them back – pay it forward. It goes like this, if someone does something for you, rather than returning the favor for them, you pay the favor forward by doing something nice and meaningful for 3 other people. Each of those people will then help another 3 people each. It is a simple idea that bears an ability to make a big difference.
These are the rules: 1. It has to be something that really helps people. 2. It has to be something that they can't do by themselves. 3. I do it for them, and they do it for 3 other people.
Kevin Spacey plays Eugene, a teacher with a plan to make a difference. He puts in place an assignment for his young class to think of an idea to change the world and then put it into action. Little Trevor (Haley Joel Osment) comes from a broken home – yet comes up with the best and most effective idea of “paying it forward”.
Trevor actually succeeded with his idea as he touches the lives of not only himself, but his alcoholic mother, his emotionally scarred teacher, his homeless grandmother, and even complete strangers.
This movie has a beautiful concept that I would love to see be put in place in this world. The movie was amazing – yet disturbing at points, and carries a heavy message we all should hear.
