If the whole world goes blind

While watching this movie, I kept thinking, when did this woman go blind? Wouldn't it be more fun if the whole world was blind? It is a pity that the author's hypothesis is not so bold. The Japanese man suddenly regained his eyesight at the end of the film. I think this is the biggest flaw in the whole film. Not only does it confuse the audience, but it is more like the screenwriter used the most clumsy method to round something that could not be rounded at all. Lies lead people to ask: Why did the man regain his sight? Then the person who didn't think it was necessary to dig into the bull's horns asked him again: Then why did the author make him blind in the first place? Going forward in this way, we finally form a question: Why does the author make such an assumption? This idea is great, very smart, yes, but logically, there is no reason why people all over the world are blind, and there is only one woman left who is not blind. Maybe you're going to say she has some kind of unique antibody that causes, well...why is it so coincidental? ...well, the movie is full of coincidences.

In fact, I think this film is just the beginning, because I am eagerly expecting that the heroine will also become blind, and there is only one perspective of God left in the camera. This is the beginning of a good show. After everyone goes blind, if their survivability is strong enough, (I think in terms of human survivability, it is still possible to preserve the survival of the race), a completely different social system will soon be established on this earth. Lifestyle, many things will change drastically, etc. Those who are born blind will get power first, because they have the strongest adaptability, and are the first to have some skills that others don't have. For example, the old man who was born blind in the third room in the play successfully became the number one leader. In fact, if he is strong enough and rogue enough, he can become the leader himself. The words in this world will become Braille, reading will become touching, and writing will become engraving. With this demand, intelligent human beings will surely invent a new tool to make engraving as effortless as writing. Of course, things like computers and TVs that basically rely on vision are also abolished, and computer TVs that are touched by hand may be invented in the future. . In short, our perception center is evenly distributed from “seeing” to “listening, smelling, and touching.” We no longer judge people by their appearance, and no longer mind their race and skin color. We're going to gather a bunch of learned, good memory, well-informed people (well... academic pundits) to recall history and turn what they have in their heads into Braille, so that our history will be read by Re-recorded, and started recording in another way. A unified braille system can be promoted, which will greatly facilitate the communication between people from all over the world. Because even though they speak different languages, but because the written language is the same, two educated people communicate by simply drawing dots on each other's palms with their hands.

Without vision, painters, sculptors, and other visual artists... but unfortunately, they all had to change careers. But the things left by the ancestors still have to be kept, such as museums and so on, in case it becomes clear again in the future... uh. The first generation of artists who are concerned with visual appreciation will definitely feel pain, but there is no way... who calls social upheaval. We've become less focused on the surface and more attentive to the more substantial comfort it brings to tactile, bodily sensations. Of course, the environment should not be too dirty or messy, and those rubbish prevent us from walking. (The mess depicted in the movie will be cleaned up after people come to accept a world without sight.) Television became inferior to radio. Television was obsoleted by radio because it functioned almost like a radio. The most ideal input method of our computer is sound input, and then sound output. Art careers related to hearing have grown. We started picking up the radio again and listening to the news and people with good voices were envied...hopefully by then we'll have robots who take care of all the cleaning, construction, everything that requires sight...

but we can't appreciate it Sunset, can't see rainbow colors, can't... This kind of sudden and sudden deprivation of the senses is cruel. Imagine if humans didn't have sight in the first place, or in other words, we were born with a loss of sixth sense, but we didn't know it existed, so we could also be in this state of loss of sixth sense. Live happily... So if vision is that superfluous sense, we are born in darkness or pale, and we don't know the existence of vision, then such days may be as good as when we have vision now... ...

By the way, the group in the middle of the movie that was sent to quarantine is said to be a scene in which the ugliness of human nature is exposed and reminds me of Lord of the Flies. The leader in Room 3 only has a gun to scare others into panic. Rogues are most likely to gain power in times of chaos. The more literate people => those in Room 1 will obediently be ruled. I don't see the ugliness of human nature, only this. Because in fact, there are more good humanity overshadowing the ugly humanity in the film, such as the sacrifice of the heroine for her husband, the sacrifice of women for food, the black man with the radio... I think the director of this play is very civilized people.

Because of my nearsightedness, I am actually afraid that I will go blind one day. And there is such a history in the family. Humans are afraid of the sudden loss of what they have. So I have to take good care of my eyesight. . And because I have had and am having vision, I still think this world that I can see is pretty good.
