      Perception: All beings are Buddhas, and Buddhas are all beings

      I've finally finished watching the movie I've been hiding in my wish list. Forgot why it was included in the first place, but it doesn't matter... After all, this is a movie from almost 20 years ago.

      I will not try to restore the plot. The reason why I want to write something is that I think there are several clips arranged by the director, which are more worthy of aftertaste and discussion. Many other comments seemed to focus on putting the story back...

      Life is for Redemption - Clip Art by Gonzalez

      "21 Grams" is the second feature film of Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu, who is also one of the three great Mexicans we later know. This is his first English-language feature film, with a strong cast and a star-studded cast. Just talk about your feelings here.

      We see that the story does not give us a specific time or place background. It can be understood that it happened anywhere, no matter the country, clan, or...

      the weight of the soul

      It's the type I like, but you have to watch it carefully, because the three lines are too broken and there are flashbacks, which can easily lead to confusion if you are not careful. 21 (male) grams is the weight of the soul. A car accident, three lives, let three adults fall into the abyss of eternal pain. Is God joking with people in such a cruel way? The prodigal son who has turned back and followed you closely, you drive him away in this way? His pain is heart-wrenching, and the heroine...

      I am like...

      It's really unfortunate that people have their own misfortunes. The three man-made objects that have nothing to do with each other are gathered together like a man, and the editing like a god makes the film more powerful. The so-called Tao produces one, one produces two, two produces three, and three produces all things. The extended meaning of these three families that are not related to each other can also be understood as summarizing all the people in the world. The film tells the living...

    The film is just a statement about sad fate, it shows how weak and strong we can be; sometimes, it is not difficult to abandon 21 grams, but life is like this: loneliness, exhaustion, fatal injury, unsustainable progress , And the hands stretched out across from each other, the body that is close to each other, the mind that depends on each other.
