Who is whose past life?

In 2010, the Palme d'Or was awarded to Thailand for the first time. In the early summer of May, director Apichatpong held a golden palm leaf in France. At that time, in the director's home country, there was a political storm set off by the red shirt army, and the street riots gradually turned into an uncontrollable situation. …In April of the same year, a volcano in Iceland erupted, and thick ash covered the sky and closed the sky, as if the end was coming. The more far-reaching impact is that the heavy volcanic ash paralyzed European aviation for many months, and even US President Barack Obama was not spared. Because of the grounding of flights, he was unable to attend the funeral of Polish President Kaczynski in Europe as scheduled... The same year 3 This month, I met a good friend that I will never forget. We hit it off right away, and on that weekend when volcanic ash blanketed the continent, our relationship was on fire until it pushed each other into a situation no one could have predicted...

February 18, 2012, I finally enjoyed "Bomi" Uncle's Past and Present". I am amazed at how the director can handle the heavy topic of life and death with optimism and humour. The deceased wife and the missing son were able to share a meal with the living people such as the protagonist and catch up with each other. In the scene where the "Ghost Monkey" son appeared, my heart trembled, and then when I started to speak at the dining table, the sense of horror was replaced by a sense of humor. I especially wanted to laugh. This scene was also the best shot in the whole film. What makes me admire is the surprise ending, I think it can be compared to Abbas' "The Taste of Cherry"! As Tim Burton commented, the film is a magnificent and eerie dream. Watching a movie is like dreaming. In the movie, I can temporarily forget the real world...

After watching the movie, I remembered that this is a movie from 2010. Unknowingly, 2 years passed away silently, leaving me with many colorful memories. I may not have the ability to remember my past life like Uncle Pommy. I don't care if my past life was a drop of rain, a tree, a free-moving fish or a buffalo that broke free; the only thing I can do is not forget everything I have lived in this life, whether it's hardships, pains or good times Joy, and I will not forget the relatives and friends I have known, their kindness to me, and I will remember them in my heart. I don't know if I have an afterlife, but if I can remember all this before I die, I'll be content.
