Pure art of memory

Simple characters, simple environment, simple plot. No playing with fancy character relationships, no omnipotent superheroes, no wishful thinking by chance. The pure art of remembrance reflects the director's profound picture skills.

A person, trapped in the desert. The companion was maimed in front of him, but he was powerless because he couldn't move.

In the pure desert, there is nothing except the blue sky and the desert. No one can help him.

This scene is a bit like the plot of "127 Hours". Yes, this is a remake of "127 Hours". But this is "127 Hours" with gestures.

Because of stepping on the mine, the forefoot must be kept under pressure. One of his legs was so strong, maintaining the tenacity of a soldier. He reached out to touch his shoulder and touched his fiancée; his consciousness ran to the terrible experience of his childhood, and he slammed his face with a punch; his memories ran into the bar, and the urge to run forward was full of his Body; he knelt in front of his wife, his heart was pious and full of beauty. He knelt down, in order to reach his protection.

He knelt in front of his wife, he knelt in front of his dying mother, he knelt on the bar floor, he knelt on the mine. The director's quick shot cutting ability is once again vividly reflected.

When he decided to abandon his legs in exchange for the survival of the body, it was when the essence of memory-synaesthesia burst.

"You must go forward."

    Tommy Madison: [smiles widely in disbelief, then chuckles] Landmines? Oh I like it when you get optimistic, Mike.

    Mike: [doesn't say anything but carefully scans the area with his eyes]

    Tommy Madison: Okay, now you listen Mr. Wikipedia. You can find all kinds of stuff in the desert. Look at the condition that sign is in, okay, who knows where this is from or what it really says. Mike. Don't get paranoid. Don't let that thing mess with your head.

    Mike: I'm just reviewing our options.

    Tommy Madison: We do have two options because we are such lucky guys. Now we can turn around and die of thirst. Or, we can get to that village within the hour, Mike. I know which option I'm taking.

  • [in intermittent flashback as Mike is struggling to reach the flare in the desert]

    Jenny: [knighting Mike with a ladle in the kitchen] Do you thus pay homage to our crown and swear fealty on our realm?

    Mike: [on one knee, smiling, then serious] Your highness, I hereby swear to be a courageous knight, reverent and courteous, always... champion of truth, and justice. I hereby swear to be honest, and good. I swear to protect our realm, and I swear this before you, my Princess.

    Jenny: [smiling, eyes tearing up with excitement] Yes.

    Mike: [still on one knee looking up at Jenny, confused] Yes what?

    Jenny: [stops smiling as understanding sets in her facial expressions, then smiles sadly] Yes, you will be a courageous...

    [caresses Mike's face]

    Jenny: ... courageous knight.

    [stops smiling and walks away tearfully]
