    1 One cannot interpret the feelings of others on their own, but starting from one's own emotions, it is very beautiful when this pure love is responded to, and I, as a viewer, can also be moved. 2 There is a disadvantage of cross-species feelings, that is, they cannot understand each other; Both pain and pleasure are intrinsic. 3 The film itself, from a moral level, the author himself adheres to his principles, and I admire him very much. Although I understand and respect the laws of nature, my...

    This is even more surprising than watching Avatar. The main actor's pain medicine is in childhood, and there are healing factors in childhood. And this is an educational film, not only a popular science film about marine life, but also a role model for parent-child relationship. Just like an octopus heals itself, the author is also establishing a relationship with that innocent self. With the guidance of "Octopus Teacher", he discovers the mystery of life: respect and freedom. The sea is the...

    When I came to see the octopus, it turned out to be a bullshit story of an old white man who took a vacation and found comfort in the sea. What does it have to do with me?

Although human beings are the most advanced animals, it is impossible for human beings to become the masters of the universe, and human beings will also have a weak and powerless side. The life of an octopus is very short, but it is also very valuable. The wisdom of fighting wits and courage and the sacrifice of giving up in the end are even more...

    The documentary is okay, mainly because the male protagonist can tell stories, and many of the male protagonists' own feelings and thoughts are embedded. 4.5 star...

    It is like attending a funeral, sitting quietly under the stage during the ceremony, listening to the close relative of the deceased on the stage, and re-acquainting with a once fresh soul from his perspective, her agility, intelligence, cuteness and beauty. The warmth he once brought to others, and as the narrator, he is also trying to embrace her in heaven with a stronger and gentle force. Thanks to good tools, the distance between the audience and the wild is so clearly drawn, and thanks to...

My Octopus Teacher quotes

  • Craig Foster: What she taught me was to feel... that you're part of this place, not a visitor. That's a huge difference.

  • [first lines]

    Craig Foster: A lot of people say an octopus is like an alien. But the strange thing is, as you get closer to them, you realize that we're very similar in a lot of ways.
