In the film, We see Jason, a mere tennis instructor is speaking very animatedly to a group of people as he explains Astronomy to them. As he speaks, we see other more and people joining to listen to him with great interest. At this moment the voiceover starts and conjures up impossible scenarios such as Jason being a time traveler to him being abducted and experimented by aliens to find out how he acquired this newfound knowledge. And finally, pinning it down to reading the right books had made him unexpectedly interesting.
When you read more, you acquire a wealth of knowledge. When you acquire more knowledge, you become more interesting. This allows you to better engage with everyone around you. Reading gets you into circles beyond the understanding of your friends, acquaintances and even passers-by. But, when your friends, acquaintances and these passers-by don’t quite understand exactly how you acquired all of this knowledge, they begin to conjure up impossible scenarios for your new-found knowledge. Rarely do they pin it down to reading the right books that make you unexpectedly interesting.
