Loggerhead turtle

The simple style setting of this cartoon is not without reason. And I have always preferred this kind of boring film that does not satisfy the desire for expectations. It reminds me of the juvenile faction with obvious contrast. The degree of magic of the Red Sea Turtle is extremely restrained. The only manifestation is that the Red Sea Turtle turns into a woman. In fact, the psychological change of the man’s survival on the desert island metaphors the life state of ordinary people in real life. So suppose that the more you modify the drama of life on the island, the more you will weaken the fear of the infinite loop of loneliness in real life and that people will eventually disappear. Including the departure of the son is also inevitable. People's loneliness can be eliminated, but the feeling of loneliness cannot be eliminated. This is an inherent trait. The turtle woman is a unique existence to the male protagonist. This setting can also be other animals, as long as she is unknown and mysterious, and then tamed and then accompanied and experienced hardships.
The important thing for this film is to provide an aesthetic attitude towards watching movies, rather than lamenting loneliness or mutual intimacy, or blablabla...Of course, this aesthetic attitude is opposed to kitsch, a mentality that always looks forward to explosions and Easter eggs. It fights against the current situation of impetuous information overload, in fact, imagination has also disappeared in this massive viewing habit. Because after too many choices, you can't indulge in a certain style for a while, and you won't go to research or delve into it, but you are eager to get more excess information. Here I want to talk about Ang Lee’s juvenile school. There is no doubt that this is the best in the same category. However, this kind of human nature paradox theme film I prefer the way of telling stories in the Ten Commandments. The steady dullness of the camera brings out the heaviness of the flesh and the absurdity of fate. ps: I really like Ang Lee's.
Looking at the details of each shot of the loggerhead turtle, I was very moved.
