Excluding those fantastic colors and the deep meaning of nature and life that everyone knows, what I see is the macroscopic life of an ordinary person.
After experiencing setbacks and tribulations, you must live with expectations and perseverance. Suddenly, there is such a person. The two sides are willing to give up a lot of things for each other in exchange for happiness and contentment. But in the long years, it is an inevitable process for love to become family, and the appearance of children can embody this more. When a person has the maintenance of a family, and when disaster strikes, the family supports each other and faces each other, and it is not so unbearable. When the island was hit by the tsunami, it was true that God assisted the turtles with great efforts, but if it wasn't for the child's persistent search, the male protagonist would have really died. The interior of the family is also a system of giving and being given cycles.
And children are also independent individuals, and they will have what they want to pursue, which comes from their parents, but does not belong to them. Women come from the sea, and the law of survival is the most obvious. It can be seen from the education of women to children. A person can only truly grow when he faces something alone. When the child decided to go out, the man and the woman sent the child away, guarding each other on the island where only the two of them gradually grew old, and truly grew old together. Looking at it this way, this is actually a very idealized and realistic fairy tale.
This film excludes all external factors that may interfere with love. The process of a man and a woman being together is very logical, and it's a brushstroke, and the desert island, as a small world isolated from the world, eliminates economic disputes and any negative interference from others. Pure to only each other. In fact, the man and the red turtle have never given up the instinctive pursuit in their hearts, but there are more important people around. In life, there is something to give up, and this is the true consummation.
Although there is not a single line in the whole process, it does not affect the integrity and depth of the story at all, nor does it make people feel boring. The body language of the characters expresses the emotions well. It is precisely because there are no lines that it is ideal enough. The picture details and sound effects are very powerful and fascinating. However, the ups and downs of the youth love story with more storytelling are more in line with the public's taste. In any case, compared to some similar movies that are easy to understand and can arouse the audience's emotions, "Red Turtle" is more suitable for the aftertaste of the long aftertaste, and it also made me truly understand the meaning of people taking "building a family" as a compulsory course in life.
Finally, on the night of the bright moon, the man glanced at the sea level in the distance and died peacefully. The woman guarded him and cried bitterly. With infinite nostalgia, he turned into a red turtle and returned to the sea. Some people say that it is pitiful that a man is left alone on the beach after he dies. I think for the red turtle, the most cruel thing is that they can't find the same destination through different paths.
It is not only love that is magnificent and rotten, that is called love. To borrow a sentence: Everyone is an island. The dead have passed away, and the living will continue. This is the happy ending.
