The Matrix (1st movie) to Plate or Descartes

Relate The Matrix (original movie, first of the trilogy) to a topic we covered regarding Plato or Descartes. Find some analogy in the movie to the epistemology/ontology associated with Plato or Descartes and use those scenes and their corresponding pages from our text to develop a compare and contrast essay - your topic sentence (thesis statement) will (hopefully) become clear as you do this if it isn't before you start the writing process.
