shackles of reality

I like the golden light, shot from behind without any scruples, free, bright, simple, straightforward, in Anne and Tom's eloquent conversation, in Grace's gaze with "Ranger", in Tom's While waiting for the "Ranger", the light at that time and the scenery of the countryside complement each other, which can make you feel that the whole person begins to warm up, from the smile, from the situation, and from the eternal topic - love. However, in the film, it is fruitless. Like, because of nostalgia, nostalgia is because of moving, moved because it touches the depths of people's hearts, at that time, you can feel the happiness and poignant beauty of the characters, just like you, slowly undergoing chemical changes.

The United States, because its cultural accumulation is not deep enough, goes to other countries from time to time to grab some things that do not belong to itself. Thoughts are what they lack in their bones. It is not difficult to understand that at the dinner table, the well-mannered Annie has given up the habit of praying. It was not until she saw the simple peasants, as always, silently reciting prayers, that she embarrassedly and her daughter realized her rudeness and eccentricity... This kind of mentality reflects the mentality of the American public today. It is true that this is the American people. In the materialistic metropolis, they face everything indifferently and pursue the fast-paced lifestyle of speed and efficiency, so that they forget They too were once a member of nature, a creature in the hands of the Creator.

Because of the development of society, many things are too late to give people more time and space to digest. You are always walking or jogging. When you stop, you will be at a loss, because you don’t know what else you can exist for. , While proving that you are still alive, you can't stand the denial and criticism of others, especially your relatives. You are afraid of being considered useless by others. The meaning of existence is that you must constantly prove that you are valuable. Grace's psychology is not difficult to understand and feel.

I can't be completely sure whether the current choice is 100% correct, for my partner, for my career, for my children, and for myself. However, from the day when people claimed to be high-level animals, they carried a heavy burden on themselves-responsibility. To this end, lifelong freedom will be given up, and a heavy "saddle" will be permanently put on. Take time to forget the galloping days and the breath of sunshine a long time ago.

God, it always seems fair.

The Horse Whisperer quotes

  • Tom Booker: Is she going to be long?

    Grace: Probably, she's on the phone 23 hours a day.

    Tom Booker: What does she do?

    Grace: She's an editor.

    Tom Booker: An editor? Ah.

    Grace: Just in case she hasn't told you, which she probably hasn't, I don't want to be a part of this. Okay?

  • Annie: I've never been on a cow farm before. It seems to me that the bulls have the best time. Just laying around the fields waiting for someone to come along and ask them to do their work.

    Tom Booker: You get born a bull you have a 90% chance of being castrated. Served up as hamburger. So on balance, I reckon I'd choose bein' a cow.
