Is death the only option?

"Hunger" This is the second film about starvation that I have seen. Originally, according to the abnormal procedure, there should be "1942" in the list. I believe that the theme of starvation is something Feng Xiaogang cannot avoid and bypass. But Liu Zhenyun's original work has been read, the refining is short, and the blow is powerful. Another book that describes in detail all the details before starvation to death is "into the wild". The director basically uses a documentary method, using a scalpel technique, to carefully dissect every detail of the dying, and every detail is vivid and compelling.

There are also white feathers flying near the end of "Hunger", but unlike "Forrest Gump", the latter is the flying of the soul, and the former is the falling of the soul. Death is so terrible, but why do people still not regret it? There can only be something scarier than death. The director has already explained and laid out such an ending in the middle of the bridge. An extra-long shot expresses the struggle and pain of the soul in front of the priest. Death was not the only outcome, the priest persuaded to negotiate. Bobby Sands's face stared deeply behind the cigarette mist, and another long shot, the childhood memory of death and the final choice permeated, like a donkey who can't advance or retreat, it is better to die.

The result of starvation is horror, the heart shrinks by 2/3, the gastric juices corrode the stomach, the bones pierce the skin, and each breath burns the whole body like fire. The body has slowly decayed, but the soul is flying like a dove in the sky. If I could live again, as if the boy kept running at the end, would the end of the journey be the only option for death?

    Some shots of advanced sensationalism are very awkward, such as the music and noise that mimicked the flight of birds, and the use of noise is also in place.

    It's very good, it's a kind of calm shock, and the eyes are even bigger after reading it. "Thousands of Mountains and Birds Fly" This is a portrayal of himself before he is in a desperate situation, but people will not disappear without a trace.
