About this film, I was very touched when I watched it, but I couldn't find the right words to describe what to write after watching it. I just want to express my two feelings about the great friendship between Al and Birdman. Al's rejection of this world.
Excerpts from the movie lines, the first from Al and the second from Birdman.
"Birdman, all the things you've put me through.
They say you're a freak.
Wake up your head. Bring back your memory with the things we did together. There's
a lot of water under the bridge, sitting here quietly with you It feels good and exciting not to talk.
Maybe life is really what it's supposed to be, really bad.
I'm telling you, I don't want to waste my life anymore.
I don't even know. I just want to be like everyone else and live with a little dignity .Whatever
I save you and get sick instead. You find it funny, don't you.
Smile. Maybe an involuntary reaction of some discontinuous emotion.
If you can see you crouching here, feed you this crap with me. You might die laughing.
I don't want a conversation against the wall.
We do it your way. We sit here and communicate like birds.
God, we're stupid.
We've always been stupid
. Bird.
You used to be hard to get hurt, Birdman.
The real loser doesn't get hurt.
He's a part of my life.
We had fun before. Now you're always playing by yourself. You're in your own mind Fly in.
You must be awake, Birdman.
I need you.
I am scared. I am more afraid than in war. I am more afraid than anyone.
We are not in control of our own lives.
I've always been pretty sure that when I was myself, no one asked me to do what I didn't want to do.
No matter how special you are now or in the past,
I feel like a dog no one wants.
What's so good about their world.
Let's stay here and don't go out.
I know what you think and you are right.
We should hide and not talk to anyone.
And often, go crazy.
This is what we can do. "
After the war, they met again. Birdman maintained a bird-like attitude and said nothing. He curled up, his only gesture and movement was to look at the little piece of sky in the room through the window. He looked up for a long time. Head looked at the sky. It was his own sky. The sky far away. Al tried to talk to him. Al sat next to the birdman over and over and recalled their stories together.
He was a part of my life. Al Saying this. Reminds me of a word: great friendship. This word was said by Wang Er to Chen Qingyang in Wang Xiaobo's "Golden Age". This is a great friendship. It transcends friendship and love. It transcends gender. The same This kind of great friendship reminds me of several characters written by Annie Baby. In "Second and Three Things", Lian An and Liangsheng, and in "Lotus", Neihe and Shansheng. They are each other's only friends. They are each other's life. part of them. Between them, there is a spiritual connection, and because of each other, they are not alone.
Among them, one has a cold and dangerous quality, the other is attracted, and that is a hidden part of himself. Birdman It was the man with a unique and icy quality that attracted Al, and he brought Al into his world. It was a world that had never been seen before, a world that was more real. Together they learned to fly like birds. Of course, more often it was Al who was cooperating with the birdman. Maybe Al didn't really understand the birdman before, he just thought it was fun. Until he came back from the battlefield, with a mutilated face, facing the silent man Birdman, he began to recall their past.
Perhaps, he finally understood Birdman. He began to identify with the birdman world. Because the so-called world often makes it more difficult for us to understand and approach.
"He's kind of crazy and thinks he can fly.
He thinks he's a bird.
If I want to know more, I have to look closer.
When they're flying, I want them to be as free as possible.
No one wants to be in a cage. .I
don't care about anything, as long as it's not a bird or the sky.
The way she flies into the sky, like the sky is hers.
Flying isn't just flapping its wings. A bird can just flap its wings and stay still.
When it wants to fly It can fly up to the sky with just a little wind.
You must feel that there is something in the sky that can hold you up.
Mostly it has to do with confidence.
You can't fly because you don't believe you can fly.
In a dream, I tried To decide what I am.
When I sleep, I give myself strength.
I find the strength to fly.
I see through her eyes, fly with her wings,
I am no longer lonely.
Now I just want to see birds.
I Don't care what's going on outside.
I feel upside down.
This dream is as real as I'm awake now
I don't know where it starts or
ends
I wish I could tell Al
But I'm afraid
in my dreams nothing can stop me
Everything is so far away
I have no reason in my life for me to stay here.
I wish I could die and be reborn as a bird.
I flew last night. I know what it feels like to fly.
I'm not sure,
Not something that can be taken apart.
When I fly, it's like in a dream.
Just not a dream. You can't describe it, you can only feel it.
When I fly, I am a bird.
I thought only you would understand. "
Al's gesture, is a gesture of rejection. He rejects the world. Total rejection. He thinks his soul is a bird, he belongs to the sky. So he is only interested in birds and the sky. Because in In his opinion, the sky and birds are his world. This is a kind of spiritual cleanliness, and it is also a quality of self-confidence and bravery. He never gives up his soul world. He stays in his own world and observes the bird's Flying, communicating with birds, imitating the flight of birds. Even in his dream, he combined with his bird, becoming one.
The cruelty of the war broke the last line of defense of the bird man, and he bid farewell to this world completely. Rejected this world. He returned to his own, the world of birds. He did not speak or do anything else for a long time. He curled up, looking at his own piece of sky, imagining himself as a bird.
We cannot Judging Birdman, is he a freak? Is he fleeing? Actually, we are struck by Birdman. We are shaken by his rejection, by his belief.
When I see Birdman standing on the edge of the bed like a bird His feet were like the posture of a bird when he stayed, his body was like a bird's figure, he raised his head, and his eyes flew to the sky. I was moved in my heart. I can't tell what I was moved by. Maybe it's the kind of pure and brave that he can't do.
Birdman has never compromised or backed down. He insists on his soul, he insists that he is a bird, and he belongs to the sky.
So he can only be with this The world doesn't fit in.
But he is also successful because he always has his own world.
