There are plenty of thought provoking movies we've watched thus far in Leeper's class. Probably the most powerful for me was Bunny--strangely enough. The reason why "Bunny" is so cool for me because in the end the bunny was reunited.
I'm going to take this to a deeper level for a moment; the persistent moth that keeps bugging the Bunny is sort of like God when I'm closing him out. I see Him as a pest and toss Him out the window or try and throw Him out of sight.
"Not now, can't you see I'm busy?" It's something I find myself saying way too often to God, when really, I should be excited to have Him want to be "bugging" me at all.
It's clear throughout the entire clip that there was something missing in the film that made life for the Bunny completely empty and dull. It wasn't until the moth mystified the Bunny into following it that the film shifted from empty to bursting with life, and the Bunny was reunited --with it's best friend and love once more.
That is the most beautiful part of this film; the rediscovering of love and unity after the painful gap that's kept the bunny feeling the echoing loneliness.
