Humans, killer whales and nature

Dagmar 2022-12-12 11:54:41

Killer whales are marine super killers. Sea lions, seals, whales and even the ferocious great white sharks are all prey of killer whales.

Such a cruel killer can utter a baby-like cry. They live in groups and are led by older females. Although it is called a killer whale, it is a kind of dolphin. Extraordinarily clever.

The top killer in the ocean has become a human pet. The killer whale who starred in Willy in the film is called KEIKO and originally performed in an aquarium in Mexico. After hundreds of thousands of years of evolution, mankind has become the ruler of the earth, and whether all other creatures are extinct may be within the human mind.

Humans have the right to pursue a better life, but if we pursue a better life without hindering the basic survival of other animals, we still need to find a way to balance ourselves.

A rare movie, because there is a rare KEIKO.

After watching this movie, it's hard not to fall in love with killer whales, fall in love with the ocean, fall in love with nature.

Free Willy quotes

  • Randolph: Well, the artist returns. Welcome back.

  • Rae: You and Dial bought Willy from some slimeball whale catcher. He was too big and too old to be caught in the first place. Then, you put him in a dolphin tank alone. He's not a natural performer. You expect me to work miracles?

    Wade: We paid to train him. Not analyze him.

    Rae: These are not the circumstances you described to me when I signed on.

    Wade: You're a professional, right? So make it work.

    [Jesse sneaks pass Rae and Wade's argument and sees Willy eyes in sadness]

    Wade: Dial's given me a line and I am not gonna cross that.

    [Jesse looks at the rope, but is cautious that he might get caught]

    Rae: This is not about crossing the lines.

    Wade: Which words don't you understand? Look, if the whale was to bring in customers...

    [Willy cries while still being frightened by the nets]

    Wade: Then we could spend some money on him. But since he's not, you're just gonna have to make do with what you've got.

    [Jesse unties the rope to release Willy]
