Having a common purpose can save your soul

But when I first came into contact with this drama, it reminded me of a sentence: Joining life deceives you...
For me personally, this American drama attracted me from the beginning, maybe it was my criminal spy It's about the battle. I knew the story wasn't that simple when riise took down a bunch of rascals in the subway. Since then, I have been chasing it for more than half a year, especially the second season, which I must watch every week, even if I am busy and have no time, I will watch the update. I have to say that American TV shows are like opium, or cigarettes. When you like that flavor, you will keep smoking. This is not gambling addiction or smoking addiction, but falling in love with a flavor.
Let’s talk about my own feelings about chasing down these two seasons. I don’t want to talk about this drama from a macro perspective. Let me talk about the characters I like from the show. Here I want to talk about my personal feelings. Yes. (Purely personal fantasy) - let's just say riise~
First of all, as a CIA agent, he has a special sense of professional mission. When he and his favorite people are sent on a mission, they find that it is a complete set, or a suicide operation that kills people. After that mission, I made myself feel incompetent, and then I realized that I was just a pawn, and I had no choice when it came to my loved one and my own life. After that, he began to live a passive life. Although he possessed stunts, it was meaningless to him. He was unwilling to live a life of letting others arrange his fate, so he lived in his own indulgence, not Forget about the world. But at this time, a man who changed his fate appeared - harrod. When harrod bailed him from the police station he knew nothing about this stranger, but harrod already knew him like the back of his hand. At this time, harrod has always maintained a special sense of mystery, which is unpredictable. However, when harrod riise joined the show, the real plot of the show began. The machine, which is even more mysterious than harrod, has always been running through this show, which is also what makes me curious. The plot after that is to stage a scene of saving the characters in danger in each episode. In each episode, the number is spit out, and then riise goes to perform the task, and then harrod will direct or provide technical support. Some people may feel that this kind of plot is bloody, and some will feel very boring, but I am more concerned about the psychological changes of the characters in the play. At the beginning, because harrod gave riise a reason to live, he made his life have a purpose, just like when he was a special agent, the goal of life is to accept the task and complete the task, this may be fate, yours Life can't escape what others can't, and then live around it. You may find other reasons for yourself, but you can't avoid your own reasons for living. Excuses are born for reasons. , the reason is to exist to live, this is the life of riise. From my point of view, I prefer to see riise as a person who lives for the purpose of life. Although some people may laugh at him and think he is incompetent, I want to say that his way of living is better than those who do not know what they are for. And the lucky ones come alive.
In fact, at the beginning, Riise was also curious about harrod and machine, and he also tried to uncover and understand his partner harrod. At this time, they didn't have enough trust. As the days went on, the trust between the two of them began to slowly build up. Later, riise also discovered the principle of spitting out numbers. At the same time, harrod also revealed some of his past to riise, but it was still a problem for harrod and machine. Totally known stuff. The whole plot is constantly interspersed with the past of harrod and machine and their birth. When riise was caught by the FBI on a mission in the play, he might face jail and could not continue to work with his partner to complete the rescue mission, he said something that moved me: he was very grateful to harrod for giving him Such a job enables him to regain his faith in life. Of course, riise was rescued again later and continued their job.
Writing this, I think that pushing the character of riise to a new height is the last episode of the second season, and I finished watching this episode today, so I decided to write these words. Judging from the two seasons, riise is still riise, the nature of his life has not changed, he is still living to complete every task, but his partner and the source of the task are different. However, such a seemingly tragic character is not static. At least he has justice in his heart, and there are very few people around him that he can trust. He believes in harrod, and this trust is slowly built up by completing every task with harrod. It is such a person, maybe a bit like a machine, but it can also be said to live a pure life and has few friends, but it is worth his trust, even after root intercepts harrod, it turns out that after years of cooperation, this pair of partners is so good tacit understanding and trust. This reminds me of our real life, our life is that we need a friend worthy of our trust, for a simple (perhaps naive and incredible to some people) goal, keep going. The same for me, my life is not to decorate other people's storylines, all I want is a simple, simple living, simple laughing, simple love, simple everything, because this is my own life...
The above is my complaint after watching the second season. If you like such a simple reason, my friend, maybe you don't need a reason. Just a feeling, I recommend this American drama.

Person of Interest quotes

  • Harold Finch: [Opening narration from Season One] You are being watched. The government has a secret system, a machine that spies on you every hour of every day. I know because I built it. I designed the machine to detect acts of terror but it sees everything. Violent crimes involving ordinary people, people like you. Crimes the government considered "irrelevant." They wouldn't act, so I decided I would. But I needed a partner, someone with the skills to intervene. Hunted by the authorities, we work in secret. You'll never find us, but victim or perpetrator, if your number's up... we'll find *you*.

  • Mark Snow: [Repeated line] Don't forget, you're behind enemy lines.
