be your own light

The Lighthouse I saw was a great movie, I chose to believe in the world I saw, I chose to believe in myself. While pursuing the truth, you must always remember the id, and you cannot let the truth burn the id. The id is more important than the truth.

It's like the idea of ​​pursuing love, but after all, it's all from my own fantasies. Without love, I'm still me, and I always have to be me.

It may be you, it may be me, there may be no one from the beginning to the end, but it is there, so mysterious, standing like the truth, giving us time to illuminate the direction.

A friend of mine said that he is his own light, which is really good. I also want to be my own light. All other pursuits are only part of the light.

The above is the lighthouse I saw, and what different people see is different. This is indeed a great work, and I believe that it will bring me a different point of view when I look back on it a long time later.

What you see in the world is what you are. The world is nothing but your opinion. At this moment, people themselves are the most important. Don't be blinded by desire, otherwise you won't be able to see the truth at any time and anywhere, the truth is clearly in front of you, or love is in front of you.

At first I was attracted by the stills, the pictures of the hero being swallowed by seagulls. This is also my current state, I pursue love, I can't see the truth, I am burned by desire and punished. It is a good way to read a book or travel far when you are confused. For example, in the movie, when the sea rushes into the lighthouse, a book and a big ship appear in front of the hero. I thought the book would be a way to build a ship, or a way to get them off the island, and that's the solution in my eyes. Don't wait for others to help you, try it yourself and believe in yourself. Humans are not originally humans, but evolved from primitive humans, because we believe that we are different from animals, so we are more and more like what we imagine ourselves to be. In the future, there will be outer space, and human beings do not know where they will go. Of course, there are still many details in the movie worth savoring, such as several duels, such as the desire of the male lead, such as whether this movie is a dream, such as the audience watching the movie... After the director has finished filming, the movie should only be for the audience. He is still himself, and others are welcome to discuss with me.

Of course, at this moment, I still return to myself. Philosophical truths are nothing but thoughts, and the self in life is the self.

    Feeling there, but not feeling really.

    A24 is once again an independent production with accurate positioning, and it feels like I have seen the best Dafoe. POETIC + VISIONARY + PURE TERROR, a horror poem about desire with a full craftsman's breath (@黒: This word reads weiwei hahaha), it's not like "Little Joe" that relies on Dongying music to be surprised at first glance , but use the perfect combination of photography and editing to show the story, and the scheduling design of many scenes is quite masterful.
