I read a lot of people's comments, saying that this is the life they want. Please, don't dream of returning to primitive life while enjoying the convenience brought by the progress of modern civilization. In the film, the father lives away from the crowd because of social barriers, not to mention that they still need modern civilization, but they are less social. Those who say that now because of the country, you cannot return to this kind of life, stop FQ, if you want to live such a life, it is absolutely fine, especially now that it is urbanized, and many rural areas are slowly empty. What's more, there are still many deep mountains and old forests. I can guarantee that as long as you think about it, no one will find out when you die. Besides, don't many people like to stay at home now, and don't go out to socialize, in fact, the only difference from the protagonist in the film is that you live in concrete, he is in the woods, is there any difference? Enjoy the convenience brought by modern civilization, don't think about what you have all day long, if you want to become a fairy, no one will stop you. Finally, 80 to 90 percent of the animals live in groups, and the father in the film has social phobia, which is a disease.

Live every day. If you want what kind of life you want, go for it. Don't make excuses. If you have excuses, it means that your heart is not strong enough.

    The past is omitted, the reason is unclear, the emotion is sincere, not yearning, but fleeing, the group of hippies is like a utopian existence, tom going up the mountain and hanging food on the tree is like a mysterious connection with his father, food and medicine Survival skills... It seems that they are not separated from modern civilization. It took human beings a long time to reach modern civilization for the comfort of survival, but they also have many shackles. The key issue is how to develop its freedom and inclusiveness. What is the best way to live your life? Thinking of Thoreau's wooden house and his diary at Walden Pond, in order to practice the thought experiment in his heart, it has become a strength and symbol of an independent spirit. The important thing is that he was a practitioner. Will and Tom deeply care for and depend on each other, and finally go to their respective homes, breaking free from the fetters and restraints of human feelings, is the beginning of a strong, free and independent personality.

    What is freedom? I can't answer such a question, and my understanding of the word freedom is very shallow and subjective, but I can try to divide some screen images into different levels. Absolute freedom: A woman who will never stop is depicted in "The End of the World", and there is no place to keep her. From this aspect, she has absolute freedom, but isn't this an absolute predicament? True freedom: There is always a group of people living in RVs in road movies. Their material life is neither embarrassing nor rich; they don't yearn for the big world, just because they have everything they desire. My daughter finally had that freedom. Temporary freedom: The socially refusing father doesn't want to travel the world, he just wants to hide where no one is. He sometimes has freedom, and sometimes his character drives him to give it up. At the end of the film, he walked into the forest without a trace, can he get real freedom this time? no one knows. Numbness of freedom: Whether it is temporary or absolute, they all fight for the right to freedom with all their might. Compared to them, we are just numbly accepting freedom.
