In addition to the title, the poster can be said to represent the first impression of a movie, and in many cases its exquisite or metaphorical features can make people unconsciously produce a very strong viewing desire, and stimulate the audience's boundless curiosity, and the same is true for the movie "Don't Let Me Go". The first thing that aroused my attention and interest in this movie was its poster. Against the background of the dusk, a man and a woman seemed to be To run hard to the end of the aisle, the picture is beautiful and moving, but it also reveals sadness and sadness. Is this a metaphor for longing for freedom, or a symbol for the pursuit of love? Gives endless thoughts and reverie.
When I watched the film, I was surprised to find that the mood and theme of the film roughly coincided with the feelings and experiences that the poster gave me at first. In a mysterious boarding school named Helson, there lives a group of children who live well and carefully, including the lovely and sweet girl Kathy, plus two who are inextricably related to her and can even be said to be in love and Tommy and Lucy, who have been entangled in friendship for a lifetime, just when their understanding of the emotions of men and women changed subtly, they learned an astonishing and shocking news, it turned out that they only grew up to provide mankind Organs are the puppets that continue their lives. With the passage of time, the sincere feelings slowly revealed between them are finally bound by the shackles of fate.
This is a movie with sci-fi elements but very close to life. It is not like many commercial films with a heavy science and technology content in the past, nor is it a threat to human existence or a threat to human existence caused by the negative factors of the existence of human clones. It is the crisis of the human body as the starting point, and it is not to criticize or criticize the non-negligible and measurable negative impact of the continuous progress of science on human beings, but to focus on the clones and inject them into them. Many brilliance and factors of human nature, starting from the purpose and background of their existence, stand in their perspective and stand to experience their spiritual and emotional world, which instead highlights the cruel and selfish side of human beings, but they become Objects worthy of pity and sympathy, this shift in the focus of the theme not only gives people a refreshing feeling, but also provides an opportunity for human beings to reflect on their perspectives.
But to be honest, this movie is not as good as I expected. The most fatal reason can be said to be that it has both advantages and disadvantages. To present the theme of human cloning from a different angle, this innovative awareness is worthy of admiration, but it is too To portray them as human beings, but not to combine their special identities with their lives forcefully and deeply, will result in the processing of many details being too vague and subtle, and the emotional rendering will appear It is too shallow. Although this movie also has genes that make people move and cry, it lacks an explosive and shocking power that can penetrate people's hearts. In fact, this movie is essentially about an ordinary love triangle story.
It is mixed with betrayal due to jealousy, waiting due to deep love, fulfillment due to repentance, separation due to fate, and the interweaving and choice of love and friendship. It's a cliché story, but because of the intervention of the unusual factor that clones must regularly donate organs to face death, this love triangle looks particularly eye-catching, but it makes people feel a little regrettable. This film does not show too much the profound impact of the existence of this identity on their lives, but focuses on the sadness and helplessness of their unfair and tragic life endings caused by this identity. Their psychological and emotional changes and entanglements, but due to the limitations of the time division in the film, the sparks that collide between the three seem too rapid and short-lived.
In my opinion, Casey, Tommy and Lucy in the film are like prisoners who cannot escape their fate, and they are also a true portrayal and microcosm of many people in real life, although there is no such thing as clones. A special title, but in the face of the injustice of fate and the cruelty of reality, many people will become self-doubt, self-loathing, withdrawn, impetuous and helpless like Casey. Calm acceptance and helpless contentment also give people in real life more thinking. As far as the fragile and sincere emotions of Casey and Tommy in the film are concerned, although they are destined for the planning and direction of life from the beginning, when the time comes, they have to be obediently slaughtered by others, and in the end all they have to wait is grief. The great parting of life and death, although the time of falling in love is too short to catch people off guard, but fortunately, after all, I have had it before, which is a rare happiness and satisfaction.
