The confusion caused by the material world

In fact, I prefer the first Chinese translation of the film "Swiss Soldier". After all, it is a literal translator without spoilers, not a person, but a dead body. The dead body is not a dead body, but another personality split when the protagonist tortured him. The Swiss soldier is not a Swiss soldier, but a Swiss army knife, omnipotent, but naively ignorant. Daniel's Swiss Army knife was ridiculed by the director "DanielS" as "the eyes are vivid and the complexion is naturally pale". This saber is not only responsible for the logic of violently linking the various plots, but also supports a series of questioning structures throughout the film. One question and one answer, reflecting on the meaning of life from a new perspective. Between these teasers, there are various puzzles from the material world in series. What is death? What is love at first sight? what is love? What is desire? What is a family? What is reserved? What is a party? In the last paragraph when the big bear came, it also raised a new torture: Should I indulge in a world of dying fantasy, or should I fight to the death to get the bear out of danger? The protagonist finally chose the latter. This torture also increased the depth of the film to the thinking that the traitor in The Matrix said "I think the world in the matrix is ​​more real". Also worthy of praise is that although the two Daniel directors of this film are bold and innovative, they are still afraid of misunderstanding by the audience, so they must explain clearly in the first half of the film: 1. Very early on, I gave a close-up of the photo of the heroine on the phone. Prevent you from mistakenly thinking that they are gay. After all, the latter two male protagonists had a kissing scene, but it was not forbidden love at all, but more like a kind of masturbation. 2. When the zombies began to speak, the male protagonist had a line "Maybe it was an illusion caused by me being too hungry", indicating that the behavior of the zombies behind can be understood as a reflection of the inner world of the male protagonist. I hope that the audience will not stand on the commanding heights of science and make complaints. In fact, between life and death, there are so many small moments that you have overlooked, and when you look back before you die, you will often have a different kind of nostalgia. The story line of life itself is based on the closed laws of the material world, but the material world is completely controlled by the subjective feelings of the spiritual world. If science is a vast sky, then philosophy is the mysterious barrier that surrounds this sky, and no one knows its truth. Life is a dream that can never be awakened. Everyone interprets the meaning of life in their own way, but not everyone can say exactly what they are pursuing. Thanks to the three Daniels in this film, in a seemingly absurd setting, they have brought us more life thinking that breaks through the mindset.

Swiss Army Man quotes

  • Hank: You just seemed really happy, and I wasn't.

  • Hank: You know... I... I had always hoped that right before I die, my life would flash before my eyes and I would see wonderful things. A life full of parties and friends, and, and how I'd learned to play the guitar, and, and maybe there'd even be a girl; but as I was hanging up there, I didn't really see much of anything, but I did see you. And I know... I know it sounds dumb, but I, I really thought for a moment that, that maybe, just maybe there was a reason that you...
