All lost is the epitome of a lifetime

There are not many one-man films, and the impression of everything lost is more profound than buried alive. In the beginning, it was an old man sailing alone in the endless ocean. This reminded me of the poem repeatedly mentioned in Interstellar Transition-Don’t walk gently into the good night, the day is approaching, and the twilight years should still burn, roar, scold, scold. The passing of light. One day I will taste the joys and sorrows in the overcrowded world, and I am willing to find hopelessness and rebirth in the sea closest to nature. The storm destroyed his ship, and his staggering steps made him appear weak in front of nature, but he was constantly struggling.
What runs through the whole movie is not struggle, but loneliness, which is very much like our life. Wang Xiaobo: A person's life is everything for a person. Perhaps loneliness is inherent, but it is not a physical existence, and most people cannot see it.
Fighting against the storm, living with despair, looking forward to salvation in an endless sea of ​​misery, hope comes again and again, there is nothing except to bring despair again and again. This last time, the fool of fate made him lower his head, let go of his instinctive desire to survive, and become attached to death.
In real life, many people are not rescued, only death is a kind of detachment

All Is Lost quotes

  • Our Man: 13th of July, 4:50 pm. I'm sorry. I know that means little at this point, but I am. I tried, I think you would all agree that I tried. To be true, to be strong, to be kind, to love, to be right. But I wasn't. And I know you knew this. In each of your ways. And I am sorry. All is lost here, except for soul and body, that is, what's left of them, and a half day's ration. It's inexcusable really, I know that now. How it could have taken this long to admit that I'm not sure, but it did. I fought till the end. I'm not sure what that is worth, but know that I did. I have always hoped for more for you all. I will miss you. I'm sorry.
