"Restless" has a variety of death-related content: funerals, terminal illnesses, car accidents, ghosts, morgues, Halloween, and larger wars and evolution. But the focus is still on "life". The boy refused to accept the death of his loved one until he smiled as he accepted the death of his lover.
The film uses a certain "small and fresh" way, but it changes the brightness, vividness and thoroughness of the small and fresh movies, creating a little lack of light, a little bleak (but not rich) in color, and the overall image quality is different from most movies. another world".
Regarding death, it has always been one of the ultimate problems that circumvent mankind. The problem of death is more not the moment of death (that moment may only be one second), but more the attitude of the living towards death. That is how you should live.
The fear of death has always been an important source of creation. But this movie rarely shows fear, most of it is dazed, sad, and unacceptable. The girl faces death directly, showing more peace and calmness. I think most people want to welcome death in a calm and even warm way, but things are counterproductive, because we are mentally bound to this world too much, let alone physical pain.
The power of this movie may be a little "light", but it can let the human body experience the joy of life and the peace of death, and it has a certain healing effect on modern people. Although it has been talking about love from the beginning, this movie is not just a love letter, but also a poem written in the face of death—just like the last letter of a Japanese pilot. Time flows, the warmth and sorrow of life coexist, sorrow and joy are mixed.
Life needs poetry, and death also needs poetry.
