The Chinese translation of "GONE WITH THE WIND" has two versions: "Gone with the Wind" and "Gone with the Wind". I prefer the latter, just like the line of subtitles at the beginning of the movie: A civilization has gone with the wind. A civilization drifts with the wind and will eventually drift away; a person's destiny drifts with the wind and will eventually drift away. In fact, it's not just a civilization drifting away. What drifts away with civilization is countless individual life, a generation, a generation's dream, and a generation's way of life. It's like facing an ultimate goal-death-whether you choose to live sober and pessimistic and empty, or to live blindly and actively without this ultimate goal; after a civilization is gone, you choose to live To live in remembrance, or to abandon the past and start over. In the movie, several options are given. The gray fuzzy outline Ashley is a person destined to live a prosperous and peaceful life, otherwise it would be a tragedy. He couldn't see anything clear: bright colors sting his eyes, clear lines scratching his skin. On the contrary, the quiet and monotonous life, the quiet and delicate wife, the music and literature outlined by imagination, these vague images have brought him a sense of security. He is too accustomed to them, soft and ethereal. However, the sound of a cannon, the fall of a soldier, and the collapse of a building stimulated his weak nerves with clear and bloody images. He clearly realizes that the world has changed, which has not changed for him, and can only deepen his tragedy. It is not that he is incapable of dealing with the coming world, but the attitude he dare not face has weakened his ability to survive in the new civilization. In fact, Ashley could not be regarded as the best representative of the civilization he missed. If a civilization only appears in a posture of enjoyment, without practical work, like a mirage, such a civilization has no qualifications and charms for survival. I think the true representatives of this civilization in this movie are Mrs. O'Hara and Melanie, who both live a leisurely life and face difficulties bravely. This is where the true meaning and charm of this civilization lies. At best, Ashley has only inherited the appearance of civilization, enjoying the fruits of this civilization after a long struggle, but has not remembered and inherited the brave character charm that this civilization showed in the early development stage. He is cowardly by nature, and he can still live under the new civilization when he is bound by morals, but there is a huge fear and disgust hidden in his heart, that is, he will never be able to integrate into that civilization. It was later proved that he could not enable his wife and children to live a good life, and he was unable to survive the cruel and ugly competition. Under the persecution of the cruel reality of war, Ashley gradually realized that the civilization he lived in was no longer possible to survive. : It does not have modern facilities that can withstand attacks by others, but it is full of ambitions to sacrifice for the country and its ignorance and arrogance of the reality; it only hopes that the cotton trade with Europe will help itself to win, but it does not know that the world is being a new one. Changed by the revolution. War is not the most terrible, it just consumes your life, individual will; the aggression of values after the war is the subversion of the entire past civilization. Ashley has a clear view of history, can see the context of historical development, but does not have the courage to face the law of historical progress. He was not qualified to represent a splendid civilization, but he completely handed himself over to that civilization. Once this civilization drifted away, his spirit collapsed, and the life supported by morality was just a lifeless body. In reality, there are too many people like Ashley. Seeing reality clearly can only add to the tragic color of their lives. Such people are truly weak. And Ashley's cowardice is reflected in his choice after his ideals and protection have disappeared. Since he has chosen, he must bear it. In fact, Ashley can completely liberate himself by suicide, but he too classifies himself into that civilization and is restricted by the values, outlook on life, ethics, and social customs in that civilization. He finally fell into the dilemma of having to use dead will to support his living body and living duties. He can't blame that civilization, but he didn't understand that civilization and didn't get detached from that civilization. The thick scarlet lines Scarlett originally meant to be warm scarlet, but she matched her with the green that symbolizes hope. This is not a contradiction, but the colors are too bright and the outline is too clear. Her thick red line is destined to leave her obvious and profound strokes in history. She is the protagonist of the movie, she is the object of praise, and she is the answer that the movie gives us about the choice: abandon the past and desperately in order to survive, even if she is a weak-looking and spoiled woman since she was a child, because no one is the real one except herself The shelter; bravely take on the responsibility you should take, because the responsibility will only fall on the person who can take it. She is the image of women promoted and admired by the United States after the Civil War—independence and freedom. Tara (or the red and fertile land) is a symbol of "survival", and Scarlett’s love and possession of Tara is right The desire to "survive". Melanie's death and Ritter's departure symbolized that she had no support, and she would walk on her own way in the future. In the current world, there are still many women in countries that have not reached the level of economic development that the United States is not as economically developed as the United States are also walking this way, advocating individualism, liberalism, and money worship. "Survival" is the most important and basic task of mankind in the world. Only when this requirement is met can mankind have the energy to make life more meaningful. By the end of the movie, Scarlett should have ensured her survival and lived well. However, life is to be rich, have a house, and not be hungry or frozen. Running blindly to livelihood, seemingly fulfilling life is really so meaningful, so worthy of our emulation? Scarlett never understood a truth in her life: Once the standard of life is lowered, it can never go back to the original. When she faced the war and the chaos after the defeat of the war, and gradually grew from a pampered lady to a strong and independent woman, she had abandoned her mother’s teachings, religious beliefs, and passed away. That civilization, abandoned all the obstacles (people or things) that she thought prevented her from moving forward: she could run the wood factory as a woman regardless of social customs, or hire prisoners regardless of ethics. There is nothing in this world that can make her fear, but this is not necessarily a good thing. After that, she didn't really integrate into a new civilization. She couldn't understand those Yankees, their greed and vulgarity in grabbing money. Because she thinks that she is different from them, she has a sense of superiority, an educated sense of superiority given to her by the deceased civilization (but she does not know that the civilization that gave her superiority has been forgotten by her, and what remains in her is only inertia. The body), which gave her an illusion: as long as she earns enough money, she can treat others with tolerance, especially the weak, and she will make a noble and respectable living a comfortable life woman. Let alone her own character, the attitude of "defying the weak and striving to be the strong" does not allow her to do this; the experience of war and the fragmentation of her original life made her choose to abandon the past and move forward desperately. ——She began to become selfish, only profiting. The past life has become less and less imprinted in her current life. Her standard of living has been reduced to the point of survival, although she has taken great responsibilities to her relatives. Although she also wants love, the desire to survive smoothly lingers in her heart and influences her behavior. She became a representative of personal heroism, liberalism, and anti-traditionalism. In fact, this is a logical thing: when the war After the end, the prosperous and peaceful life is gone forever, and people have become unable to support food and clothing, and they should rely on their own labor to build another home, remembering the past and not being able to support themselves; and When the ladies who are protected by gentlemen can no longer enjoy the life of the past, since they miss it and cannot bring it back to life, the only way left is to go forward. But Scarlett never thought that she had no other spiritual sustenance other than survival: she abandoned the teachings of her mother, the civilization that could not continue, and the beliefs and religions in civilization; she knew that she did not love Ashley Yes, Ashley had no previous temptation to her; she didn’t necessarily need Rite’s love and help, she loved the land even more; she finally understood that Melanie was her bond to the past, and she had a relationship with herself How important, but she died. This is the consequence of her being afraid of nothing, and she has no support. Money cannot support a person to go through a lifetime. However, there is a question: Can you survive like this for a lifetime? Since the original civilization will dissipate, there is no guarantee that the current civilization that replaced it will not dissipate. Even if we cannot predict its end time, the fate of the end is inevitable. Once the desire for "survival" is satisfied, once the civilization dominated by "survival" dissipates, Scarlett's choice is undoubtedly a low-level choice, and this choice will be replaced by a new civilization. I think that the new civilization may be a civilization that requires humanities, ethics, and spiritual satisfaction. But what about later? What kind of civilization will be in the future? No way to know, just like "A civilization has gone with the However, at the end of the movie, she died, which means that the civilization has completely dissipated. What follows will be the rule of a new civilization, the proliferation of individualism and money worship. Even if she did not die because of a dystocia in the end, she would not live happily. After the war, the disappearance of past civilizations is not a question of certainty, but a question of time. The soil of our human nature is the flower of paradise that can't live like Melanie, who should live without selfish desires. Arranging such a role in the movie only represents a kind of memory and ideal. It is not only a memory of a splendid civilization, but also a hope for the coming civilization. In the film, Ashley, Scarlett, and Melanie made different choices in the face of the disappearance of civilization, which means different destinies, but no matter how they choose, they have one thing in common, that is, they are all submerged in a kind of Under civilization, their destiny is like civilization in the long river of history, and they will eventually drift away with the wind, because no definite individual civilization can last forever. Jumping from one civilization to another civilization cannot avoid such a fate. But, fortunately, every individual life is a small drop in the long river, and there are countless drops in this long river sharing the same fate. After seeing through, maybe it will be more open!
