In modern society, when we see villains and villains who do many evils , we occasionally scold "beasts!" or simply "beasts are better!"
But whether it's beasts or animals, how did they provoke humans? Just because they are stupid and can't speak, do they attribute human stupidity, vulgarity, evil and other bad qualities to beasts? Loyal and clever like a dog guarding a home. Diligence and perseverance are like old cows ploughing the fields, donkeys carrying grain and pulling the mill. Chickens, ducks and geese croak and hatch eggs. More domestic animals such as pigs and sheep are born to become the cooking delicacy on the human table. All animals can bring benefits to human beings, but they still have to bear the infamy that does not belong to them.
In the film, Joey and his companion, the black horse, were intercepted by the Germans and forced to drag cannons on the hillside. The officer first selected the black horse to replace the one that had just died of exhaustion, because it seemed that the black horse was stronger, but in fact He had a wound on his leg and was actually not as strong as Joey. When I saw Joey running forward from behind, voluntarily putting on a rope to suffer in place of his companion, and then looking back at his companion, I couldn't hold back my tears, and my heart was extremely entangled. On the one hand, human beings who think they are civilized have launched cruel wars, murdering their own kind, and treating life like ants. On one side, the horses, who bear the notoriety of "beasts" of human beings, are watching and helping each other on the ruthless battlefield, and they are deeply attached to each other.
When I saw this, I only felt that human beings are inferior to animals, and they have no right to scold animals. Spielberg's film is very ironic. In addition to describing the touching and sincere feelings between the boy Albert and the horse Joey, it is also an indictment of the human beings who wage war. Evolutionary advanced, noble human beings who think they are the masters of all things are occupying, squandering and destroying all kinds of viable and non-renewable resources on the earth, squeezing out the living space of other creatures, and even many well-known and unknown creatures are going extinct. . If there were more human beings like Albert who love animals and cherish life in modern society, if there were more human beings who love the environment and save resources, if there were more human beings who were in awe of nature and sympathy for all living beings, maybe there were more human beings. , human beings will exist longer on this earth asteroid in the vast universe. Otherwise, the earth, which has experienced the Cambrian, Jurassic, Cretaceous and other epochs, will usher in the next era of civilization outside of human society under the overwhelm.
