No one can choose to wink, just as no one can choose where to start his life. Brown pupils, green pupils-people seem to be more accustomed to using skin color to determine a person's pros and cons. Even if the colors of human beings in this world are so colorful, the final extraction or abandoning of dross is only based on the most superficial color. We have established a huge system to screen who will be eliminated in this world for IQ level or gregariousness. People are good at violating the laws and setting up new standards in addition to natural selection to examine the pros and cons of the world. It is nothing more than trying to stand above others in order to get pleasure.
Comment on two movies at the same time,
In "Song of Barbarians", the bright British colors try to wash away the crimes interspersed in the film, but the same sunlight cannot resolve the fear in the hearts of the people in the film. No one can condemn these "unreasonable" neighbors for asking for safety, but no one can deprive Jack of a normal life. Society itself is contradictory. At the end of the film, in the soft sunlight, Jack walked to the pier. We can imagine all the laughter in the playground, but we can't forget that in the depths of the boy's memory, screaming and confession are everything. Even if you throw a sorrowful person into the grandest joy, you can't change the person's attributes. But can social care really not resolve all the shadows of evil? And we see more that Jack himself is the real pain, and when he tries to hide everything, it is even more painful. If there really is a certain tragic and eternal existence in this world, isn't he abandoning what he has over and over again, and accepting it? When everyone is chanting freedom and equality, when a series of social problems finally fall into a series of interrogations, perhaps the Sanhedrin of this society acquiesced to hunt down the so-called "ego."
Perhaps the shattered world is more attractive. There is no overall image in Ben's thinking. He can only observe the movements and images of the human body in the game. He strives to learn how to be a person who can survive in society, not an outlier or "genius". People politely decline the world's continuous creation of myths, because geniuses are often social bad pens first. The style of the film is like a documentary, disrupting the chronological order, making viewers always think that Ben is going to do something stupid and end in tragedy. Everyone’s interviews and conversations in the film bring out such a message: Ben is at stake. All the burdens or censures that the world has imposed on him will deprive him of the opportunity to return to the embrace of others over and over again. He was expelled into the virtual reality of the network. Heroes, beauties, and perhaps such a simple fairy tale plot repeats itself over and over in Ben's mind. The gap between the characters in the game and the reality is precisely torturing his last self-esteem over and over again. The online time after waking up every morning can allow him to swap virtual and reality. For him, the cruelty and horror of reality are virtual and patient.
The two characters who were forced to the edge are reborn under the nourishment of love. They appreciate the momentary enthusiasm of the body, forgetting all the defenses and throwing themselves into it. Jack tried to shape another himself, without sin and being like an ordinary person. But Ben needs a simple belief to survive. He is a hero, but in the "virtual" reality there is no mage to accompany him. "See the light." Maybe there are too many people in this world who never go because they are hidden in the dark. They take a step forward just to live and want nothing else. Jack does it, and Ben does it. They can't even think about weighing the consequences of all actions.
Ben may still have a family harbour, even if that warmth can only be separated in his sight and is not very beautiful. And Jack has no reliance on it. I like his room very much, and the sloping roof casts a piece of sunlight. In such a quiet situation, he has heard that his destiny has been changed again and again. Exposure, threats, public hazards. When his weakness and this simple environment merge into one, will he be more able to withstand the various forms of hunting in this society? Movies often describe a person struggling between the past and the present, stumbling between two personalities. But this experience of Jack seemed to be in a metamorphosis. He stepped down and fell out of the cocoon he had woven and collapsed in front of the world's prejudices.
I have watched many boys’ videos, depicting a boy who played truant, with a peculiar withdrawn character, lost family love, or out of step with the world. Directors are particularly good at describing the boys’ journey to school, just as Ben shuddered in the noise around him—the shadow of childhood occupies a lot of space in both films, and the flashbacks in Ben’s mind are just like what happened now, Jack The flashback made the viewer see all the boy's misfortune. Similarly, these two movies are stories about the weak, being bullied, being humiliated, and until the final outbreak. Jack chose to play with the world with violence, just as the world played with him in the past; and Ben slapped everyone with images. "Leave but live", or leave completely. From the way the two "retaliate" against society, one can glimpse the path left by fate for them.
Facing the sea, the blue sea. Both Jack and Ben chose to leap into this vastness. People praise the sea as a kind of tolerance, and only this place is the last end that the two can reach. People opened their arms and tried to embrace everyone, regardless of high or low. But when it was close at hand, the weakness of human nature began to move out a set of self-made rules to screen out all "humble" creatures. But the sea is so warm, almost ignorantly accepting all people who rush to it. The fate of the two is so the same, and at this moment, they chose to "leave" at the same time, but they gave different answers to life. Ben is undoubtedly wise. Some people say he fooled the media, but under the ridicule of everyone, what kind of deception is this? Imagine how he could be free without such wisdom. This society will never have the power to introspect. People kindly hope that all evil and ugliness will eventually fade away, but they just don’t know that the disappearance of these evils and ugliness will swallow goodness and goodness together. What other options do people hunted by society have? Nostalgia for this world that does not belong to you, or give up life and embrace the vastness? Ben's wisdom belongs only to him, and perhaps only he can be released by this method, and for the group of people living in the corner of the world, it seems that only by piercing the eyes of society can they escape hunting.
The kindness and tolerance under preaching avoids the weakness and ugliness in everyone's heart. The two films just described such a story in an informative and accurate manner-two people who fled from the wild, seeking different endings. But salvation will not come because of two very tragic stories. People who are moved will shed tears or wake up, but the act of asking themselves will not happen when a person is moved. When the real scene comes, all moral bottom lines collapse because of survival, when the fallen creatures land in front of you, one is covered with stains, and the other is humiliated and unable to fight back. Someone will put aside all the fake faces, trample them indulgently, and complete the final round up, right? I don't know.
