However, what I want to discuss here is not the movie itself, but the ideal expressed by the movie-whether it is the future time or the current wealth, let us do egalitarianism! Let us come to the world of Datong! Let us join the communist society hand in hand! For this kind of beautiful ideal that only a three-year-old child can have, I really feel helpless. You know, what is the purpose of order. Order does not allow everyone to have a dollar and feel average. The real function of order is to prevent the person with one dollar from hating or even killing the rich person with ten dollars.
Deng Xiaoping said very well that some people should get rich first. As the chief planner of reform and opening up, what he said was not without his brain. Let some people get rich first, there must be his reason. As for the current stage, the growing gap between the rich and the poor and the growing gap in people’s living standards are derived from the process of implementing a market economy, not a theoretical error of the market economy itself. Therefore, when we complain about the inequality between the rich and the poor, we can criticize the country’s control policies, but we cannot criticize the market economy. None of us will say that the market economy is not good. Let us return to the era of the planning economy. They all have the same amount of money. The only consequence of everyone having the same amount of money is that everyone is poor and has no money.
So in the movie, Sophia’s father used Darwin’s birthday as the password for the store. I think it is very reasonable and reasonable. Darwin left us with a saying that women and children know is survival of the fittest. We also regard it as truth. No one will sympathize with things that are not suitable for existence in this world, as if we eat pork and will not be sad because this pig was killed and eaten by us. This society is a society in which the fittest survives. There will be poor people as well as rich people. The rich hold the wealth and determine the way it is used. The poor are responsible for production, and they obtain wealth through labor. So society will function normally. So when the movie ended, the workers in the slums took to the streets and even rushed to the New Greenwich District because they were given time, I was surprised-what about the factory shutdown? Who will work? Who will produce the materials? They both live by robbing banks like Hill and Sophia, so how should this society develop?
Therefore, fairy tales are fairy tales, and they cannot become reality. We love to read Andersen's fairy tales because it is beautiful. But Andersen always ends with: "Since then the prince and princess have lived a happy life", but never describes their married life. Because Andersen was a smart man, he knew that life after marriage would be a total tragedy, so he ended all stories with the love of the prince and the princess, not when the prince and the princess entered the palace of marriage. "Time Planning Bureau" is the same, the director let the story end when Hill and Sofia rob bank after bank, but no longer elaborate on their future and the future of that society. Because the director knows that it is a secret that cannot be said. In the film, through the mouth of the guardian of time, the words "time will circulate and order will be chaotic" are also said, but it is said that there is no more. Because of this, this movie could have explored deeper things, but it could only stay on the surface and filmed a remake of Bonnie and Clyde. It can be regarded as a tribute to the movie half a century ago. If it weren't for the heroine's amorous feelings, I think I would give a lower score.
