The journey of life, told by Trainspotting, Citizen Kane, Titanic and other films

Life will literally flash before your eyes.

WONDER HOW LONG it took to put this together? Movieclips has created this mind-boggling compilation of cinema scenes edited together to tell the story of the traditional journey through life.

The resulting montage takes us through the life of the male narrator from birth to growing up, falling in love and becoming a parent, right through to ageing and death. The voice-over is of Orson Welles and Nicholas Cage in parts, and includes over 150 clips from classics such as Trainspotting, Citizen Kane, Requiem for a Dream, Singing in the Rain, Titanic, Breakfast at Tiffany’s and er, the Rugrats.

Not sure if uplifting, or depressing. YOU decide.
