The cinema is cold ???
When I watch a movie, I will be very concerned about how the world will make me feel when I walk out of the movie theater after watching it. And after watching this movie, I walked out and my eyes were full of bright color blocks. This moment seemed to be made up of spots and fragments, and opportunities might be hidden in them. Then I was also delighted to discover that the twilight outside the skylight was really beautiful.
The following is the text of the essay:
"The Song of Opportunity, the three possible sentences derived from the protagonist chasing the train, correspond to the three lives."
...
It can be said that the derivation of all this is based on a premise: the protagonist's father died, and our protagonist "doesn't know what he wants to do".
In the first branch, the old party member's answer is "as you like", the second branch talks about faith and God through this premise, and the third branch seems to play down this confusion and Empty, because he has too much to do in a given period of time.
Well, let’s talk about these branches in a little more detail. The plot and analysis of this old film can be found in a search, so I just write some things here. (Part of the details spoiler note)
The first branch I personally call "political occasions":
In this world line, the protagonist has an emotional entanglement with a woman who liked him when he was young. They met in the park and the protagonist kissed her hand, which had some black stains on her hand. And judging from the woman's clothes and the clothes of the people around her, at least they don't belong to the middle and upper classes of society, the most common ones, and maybe even worse.
But after the male protagonist entered politics, the characters he came into contact with were not ordinary ? But what about our protagonist himself? He seems to have done something, but those things that show up are driving events, and it's not him that's decisive, it's... the real protagonists of the political world.
The line ends with the actor breaking down and breaking a crystal vase at the airport after learning that his trip to Paris has been cancelled due to a strike.
The second branch I call "religious occasions":
Religion may not be the main object of interpretation of this line, it is only a foil to rebellion and disillusionment. I have strengthened my understanding of the first branch through this branch, because the smudges on the hands of the protagonist when printing the publication are almost the same as the smudges on the hands of the women in the first world line. I'm a typical hindsight... So the woman in the first paragraph struggles with a sense of betrayal and compromise, but she also has a position she can't let go.
In the whole film, the second branch touched me the most. Some clips from the original film that were lost and could not be recovered knew just by the sound that they would not pass the trial... neither then nor now. In this line, there is also Daniel, who left the motherland and returned briefly because of the death of his relatives, crying in the arms of his sister in the early morning in his homeland, and the crucifix who opened and closed his eyes as the door opened and closed, and the disabled and hoped to wait for an opportunity. When the protagonist said to him "they won't enlighten me", the resistance movement may have been invisibly glorified, but the most direct connection is always very fragile at certain moments.
Doubt is an instinct in a sense, because of which resistance is constant and often at stake.
The third branch I call "occasions of life":
Opposite to the two people who are practicing ball throwing acrobatics, the arc they throw corresponds to the spring coil in the first branch, and the protagonist stares at the spring coil until it is in the first branch. In this branch an attempt was made to imitate the toss but failed because of the lack of gravitational pull to stop in an arched stance.
It's all that he can't grasp, maybe someone named Destiny, or the name of the movie: chance.
In this world line, the protagonist’s instruction this time is to “use religion to avoid politics and political parties”, which in turn illustrates the actual status and profound symbolism of religion in the second branch. Similarly, there is a phrase from the second branch: "Everyone is afraid" - when politics that seems to be far away suddenly appears in your life, and in a direct and rude gesture, it is people will be afraid.
In the end, the protagonist in this world line, his "state" has not changed substantially throughout his life, floating, with another kind of floating, and more kinds of floating that should have existed, and finally he was floating, never again from the sky. down.
The priest also appears when the third branch flies to Paris, and probably ends up with the same ending as the protagonist.
