trembling

When I was in the third year of high school on 9/11, I was so depressed that I felt that the colors of my life were gray every day, and there was no fun at all. A pool of stagnant water desperately needs a little wave, and there has been some dissatisfaction with the United States for a long time, so when I heard 911 at first glance, I couldn't be happier. Other than that, when it's tied to a political history class, it becomes boring. In the next few years, I kept seeing reports that this incident brought serious psychological shadows to the American people. I always felt that the media was making news about this matter, and they would read the content of the reports, but they were only watching, not Seriously switch positions and think about how Americans feel.
But it was the movie that slowly changed my mind. I watched two 911-related movies within half a month. They were basically shooting methods that combined reality and images. "11/9" and "Flight 93" have different focuses, but the feelings they brought me are: trembling. It is undeniable that the producers of the film will consciously take the audience's sympathy for the tragedy as the starting point, and will exaggerate the degree of tragedy and amplify the advantages of human nature, so as to gain more recognition; but these delicate and sensational stories are still born out of the tragedy of 9/11. Yes, with such a big background, the elements of sensationalism and singing of carols are not excessive. What's more, the audience of the film is people. Humans are emotionally contagious animals, spontaneously sympathetic to those who bear and experience misfortune, and shudder at atrocities. The plot in the movie is fictitious, but it does not rule out the possibility of one in ten million such things happening in reality. Even if it is only one in ten million, once it happens, people will have the above feelings. I was one of those viewers who felt that way. The impact of the picture is too strong! This is the first time in my life that I have seen such cruel things, that kind of helplessness, that kind of despair, that kind of dying struggle. I can't imagine if I was really in that kind of desperate situation, would I have the courage and confidence. Escape for life.
"11/9" talks about a Chinese who escaped disaster. Maybe the director joined his escape experience for the needs of the plot, but I really want to know if there are some thoughts he has hidden in his heart. . Survival is a human instinct, and this Chinese is no exception to choose to escape after the incident. But the point is that the choice made by this Chinese after meeting a passive survivor with another colleague is a little different: after trying his best to help the passive with his colleague, he made a decision to save himself. life decisions; while his colleagues are buried in the rubble along with the negative. Of course I'm on the Chinese side. The wife of the deceased also stood by his side. She said that because he had done his best, it was the passive person who gave up hope of survival. No one would blame anyone in this situation. This Chinese has lived in constant guilt since then. At the end of the film, he said to his deceased colleague in Chinese: If time can be reversed, I will stay with you. I didn't find this false or sensational in the slightest, because I believe he was thinking so from the bottom of his heart. This is no different than letting others bear the loss of any goods or funds due to his own selfishness in life. This Chinese feels that it is his own selfishness that makes his colleagues and the negative person pay the price of their lives, living in torment and self-blame. Maybe It is more painful than death.
