A narration by Xiao Li and the heroine when they filmed the starry sky is also suitable for interpreting the obsession with utopia in the film. Travel is to better experience life rather than escape life to pursue physical or spiritual hedonism. The pain of life is as inescapable as the dark side of human nature. Some people's pain lies in the pursuit of human perfection, which is difficult for most people to understand. But when it is replaced by yearning for a peaceful and fulfilling life, the powerlessness of suffering is easy to understand.
There are two polarities in all things, even if "pain" and "evil thoughts" are always present, "pleasure" and "kindness" are eternal.

In terms of a single movie, the first half is good and the second half is crap?

The Beach quotes

  • Richard: When you develop an infatuation for someone you always find a reason to believe that this is exactly the person for you. It doesn't need to be a good reason. Taking photographs of the night sky, for example. Now, in the long run, that's just the kind of dumb, irritating habit that would cause you to split up. But in the haze of infatuation, it's just what you've been searching for all these years.

  • Sal: Now get some sleep, I may wish to have sex again before we eat breakfast.
