"The Third Day" Escape

The limited drama "The Third Day" starring Jude Law originally had a large-scale event. After the first three episodes of the series, the audience can go to the island where the story takes place in the play, Osea, which is also a real island. Participate in a one-day live-action shooting and experience a "senior group performance". When Jude Law went to the major talk shows to promote the film, I also thought that this attempt was quite interesting. It is said that the main creator also wanted to show the story in an ingenious way through this online broadcast and offline interaction, and Jude Law also joined the film because of this. Later, due to the epidemic, the event was canceled, and it became a limited invitation system. Others could watch the live broadcast online, and it was a one-shot record. Someone shared on YouTube. When I searched, it was all transcribed. The effect of the picture was not very good, and I needed to immerse myself in it for 12 hours. , Fast-forward to see a few scenes of the protagonist leaving the country, and then turn it off. It probably means to follow the first three episodes and talk about the ceremony after the male protagonist assumes the role of "the father". But the idea is really interesting. I hope that there will be more interactive and innovative episodes in the future, so as to give core fans more ways to play.

From the beginning, the play tells the story of a father who lost his son, Sam, who accidentally discovered that a strange girl committed suicide on the day of paying homage to his son Nathan, rescued her and sent her home to a small island, which is the Osea mentioned above. , after being trapped on the island, the story of experiencing various events. This drama is divided into three parts, the first three episodes are summer, the three episodes are divided into three days, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with the addition of offline activities in the middle of autumn, the last three episodes are winter, Monday, Tuesday and the last day. The first three episodes mainly introduce Kojima from the perspective of Sam, the character starring Jude Law, his father. In the eyes of the local residents, this small island is the soul of the world. The original words in the play are "Soul of the world", "If there is a problem with Osea, the whole planet will rot." The island's community was created more than half a century ago when a speculator and a group of criminals came to the island to start a new life by regaining their faith, whose descendants continue to this day. However, with the change of generations, the islanders have become more and more difficult to make a living. This group of residents with a bit of a cult feel that the cause is the island owner, the descendant of the earliest investor, the father of the role. The person responsible is impure by blood and incompetent. And the protagonist of this film, Sam, is the descendant of the real island owner and the continuation of the bloodline. At the beginning, Sam's grandfather didn't want his son to suffer this fate and fled the island, and since then the situation on the island has gotten worse, and the islanders have blamed the collateral brother who took over the father's position. Through constant search, the islanders finally found Sam. They felt that the corruption of the "Soul of the World" could only be cured after the real island owner's descendants returned, but it was too difficult to convince Sam to be an adult. The islanders were divided into two factions, one group felt that Sam's son should be kidnapped, and the group finally caught the boy by chance while Sam was traveling with his son. And faked the death of Sam's son by sacrificing another boy's scheme, which also caused Sam to sink into deep self-blame.

Of course, the beginning of the story does not directly address these backgrounds. The first part of the summer begins. Sam accidentally rescued a little girl who committed suicide while paying tribute to his son near the crime scene. After sending her back to the island, he was told that to leave the island, there are only two chances to leave the island at the beginning of the day and at dusk. , can return to the mainland from a long and narrow plank road. The signal on the island is not good, and the fishing boat is closed to organize the annual tourism festival on the island. The warm-hearted Sam is hesitant to go or stay in order to ensure the safety of the little girl. Through the communication with the islanders, Sam gradually felt that something was wrong on the island. There were various religious symbols, portraits on the buildings, strange residents and their whispers. He seemed to have broken into a secret community, and it was going on here. Worship of evil gods. Although Sam was in a hurry to leave because of personal matters, he was attracted by this mystery and wasted time. When he wanted to leave, he found that the sea plank road was closed and the tide flooded the path, so he could only decide to stay for one night. On the one hand, he is eager to make a deal with a government official on the mainland to continue his and his wife's business, but on the other hand, he finds that he does not want to leave. At night Sam had nightmares about a wild child he saw on the island, very much like his son. The nightmare disrupted his plans, making him even more hesitant, and the attitude of the island's residents towards him was also a sharp turn. Yesterday, he was in a hurry to send him away. The next day, it would be fine to ask him to stay again. Faced with a choice, and the mobile phone signal is not good, seeing that the bribe of the officials is about to fail, he also met another passer-by who came to the island at this time, Jess, so he finally chose to stay. Jess claimed that she came to participate in the celebrations on the island, and she was also a lover of occultism, attracted by the Celtic religious culture that continued on the island. She told Sam about the origin of the island. The earliest island owner passed Celtic ancient rituals, sacrifices, etc., brought together a group of people who were abandoned by society, so the island's original collision of old and new religions permeated every corner of their community. The next day, Sam had a more in-depth contact with the current situation of the island, learned about the two factions of the dispute over rights on the island, and at the same time he found that the residents here seemed to have something to do with the death of his son. Inadvertently encountering trivial evidence made him more and more determined. Since he can't leave, he will stay here to find out the truth and unravel the knot of his heart after he came to the island. However, as the night comes, the celebration begins, Sam forgets himself between the bonfire and the wine, and ends up accidentally having a one-night stand with Jess. The bumps on the island on the third day made the whole story even clearer for Sam, who was sure he was The son's death is strange. After witnessing the girl who was rescued at the beginning, he finally committed suicide and sacrificed himself to save the future of the island. After Sam confronted the hotel owner and his wife who had been receiving him, he got the answer he wanted. His son was indeed killed by the island. The people plundered in order to establish a new heir. The boy buried by the family is the child of an old father on the island. The girl he rescued was also the daughter of the man, and the man represented another faction on the island, the faction that opposed Sam's succession as the owner of the island, the faction that was confused about the future of the island, and the group that hated Sam. At this time, Sam learned for the first time that he actually had a relationship with the island, and he also understood the surprise of the islanders at his unexpected arrival. It turned out that the dilapidation of life on the island made a group of people, namely the hotel couple and a group, plan to kidnap Sam's son, but the situation on the island has not improved, and before it is too late to change the island, their future may be forced to end. And Sam's arrival gave them hope. They wanted Sam to discover through his own investigation that he was inextricably linked to the island, and that Sam decided to stay by himself, take over the false island owner, lead the islanders out of the darkness, and heal the island. Heart of the World, "If something goes wrong with Osea, the whole planet will rot". But Sam was unmoved and escaped during the search for him by two gangs on the island. With Jess' help, Sam eventually boarded a small boat with her to head inland. Sam eventually confessed to Jess that he understood what it meant to stay, but he still decided to leave. But she didn't expect that Jess had already teamed up with others. She told Sam that her child was in their hands. It turned out that the two factions had reached a consensus and forced Sam to inherit the island owner. Back on the island, the original island owner, Sam's uncle, committed suicide in front of Sam, and Sam inherited the mantle in desperation. The islanders told him that his future was on the island, and Sam finally found the boy who looked like his lost son Nathan in his nightmare, and chose to walk into the island with him.

The second part, Autumn, mainly talks about the ceremony of Sam's official succession to the role of the father, the day's activities. The rituals, rituals, and carnivals are mainly to show the religious sacrifice rituals of the islanders.

The third part of the three days of winter is mainly based on the perspective of Sam's wife Helen, the mother who came to the island to explore the disappearance of her husband. An email claimed that he was Sam and wanted Helen to come to the island to find him. Helen took the two daughters to the island under the guise of celebrating the birthday of the eldest daughter, hoping to find out the whereabouts of her husband. In fact, she was already extremely disappointed with her husband. The purpose of her trip was to recover the cash that Sam had previously taken to bribe officials, so that she could persevere for the lives of her two daughters. At first, the islands deceived Helen with a unified caliber, claiming that they did not know Sam's whereabouts. Helen's arrival also witnessed a worse situation on the island, as well as more serious disputes. After barely finding a place to stay on the island on the first day, Helen saved Jess's life from a near birth that night. The ensuing investigation the next day saw more bizarre events on the island, and Helen learned from an alcoholic that Sam was indeed on the island. Helen once again rescued Jess who almost drowned and helped her give birth to a daughter. She learned from her that the father of the newborn was Sam, And confirmed that Sam was hiding in the mansion on the island. An angry Helen left his two daughters and went to confront Sam. The eldest daughter was taken away by the islanders, and the younger daughter was almost killed by Jess who discovered Helen's true identity and escaped. Eventually seeing Sam and Helen meet, Sam explains why he stayed on the island because he found their dead child Nathan and had to stay here with him. In fact, this so-called son's boy is just a distant relative of their family, the grandson of Uncle Sam, who is not only a few years younger than Nathan in age, but also has the wrong skin color. But the boy thought he was Nathan, and Sam was even more convinced. Helen was furious, and then other supporters of Sam on the island rushed to the mansion, informed that Jess had given birth to a girl, challenged Sam's status as the owner of the island, and came to arrest the Sam family. In the rush to escape, both the pub couple are killed, and Sam and Helen are trapped by Jess's deceived eldest daughter. In the end, Jess took over the leadership of Kojima through his own daughter and put the couple under house arrest. The accelerated ending begins, Sam and Helen are saved by the younger daughter, and Helen forces Sam to make a choice and accept reality to save the older daughter. Sam killed the islanders who were guarding the eldest daughter and the little boy, but he still chose to live in his own fantasy, unwilling to face the reality that Nathan was really dead, and decided to stay on the island. Helen brought his two daughters to the beach while escaping the islanders' pursuit. Helen put the daughters on a small raft, tied the hemp rope to the raft, and jumped into the sea, desperately fighting in the cold water at night. swim to the other side. In the middle of the journey, Helen was exhausted, and the vision of his son Nathan shouting for help appeared in the dark, which motivated Helen to do his best to bring the two daughters to the mainland successfully. At the end of the story, the two daughters took the frozen Helen to a houseboat by the sea, and the three wrapped up to keep their mother warm. In the final scene of the episode, a ray of sunlight hits them at the beginning of the day, and Helen clings to Nathan's coat in a trance, when he is actually getting the belongings he stole from Sam, clinging to the family. people's future. Han rescued the phantom of shouting, and used this to motivate Helen to do his best to bring the two daughters to the mainland successfully.

Although the ending of the small island of Osea is not described in the series, it is basically the police intervening in the end, or the two waves of people on their island fought each other to kill themselves. The islanders attribute the island's dilapidation to the island owner, the father, who believe that it was all the fault of an incompetent religious leader who failed to bring balance to the island. When the father failed them, instead of changing themselves, a group of people chose to kidnap a child. Even after the plan failed, they had to find the male protagonist as a substitute, but in the end, the male protagonist could not bring about change, this group of people I would rather change the rules I believe in, choose a mother and place my hopes on others again, rather than face my own failures. The husband and wife are even more, when faced with a tragedy, the response to grief is diametrically opposite, which also causes the final outcome of the two people to be very different. From the dialogue between the two in the play, we know that Sam actually lost his son because he was on the phone with Xiaosan and forgot that the child was playing in the market. In the first three episodes from his own perspective, the child was all about the child. is lost. In order to get rid of the responsibility to dilute his guilt, Sam suspected the police, questioned his wife's father, and violently beat an unrelated immigrant. Finally, he learned from his wife that these had nothing to do with the disappearance of his children. When he really learned that his son died unexpectedly after being kidnapped by the islanders, instead of facing the reality, he would rather accept the deception of his enemies and live in the lies they weaved for him, rather than face up to his own fault. Even in the end, he still chose to believe that the boy was his son. By releasing the darkness in his heart, he killed the bad guy who was guarding the boy, and forced himself into a desperate situation where it was useless to recognize the reality.

I think for the character of Sam, even the darkness is easier to accept than the truth. On the contrary, Helen's role is to be much stronger, to deal with a wayward husband, and to take care of two innocent daughters. Judging from her attitude towards her handling of things in the second half of the episode, she is the head of the family. She was forced to take her two daughters out of nowhere and did not want them to stay at her mother-in-law's house to participate in religious activities. The hysteria of the argument, swimming out of the island and saving his two children is also something Sam failed to do in the same situation at the end of the third episode. Only at the end the little boy told her what Nathan had quarreled with her for the last time, which made her shaken. She could choose to live on the island with her daughter for a while, but she was not as weak as Sam, and she still tried her best for the child. He tried his best and didn't condone his own grief like Sam did.

What attracts me most about this show is the excellent performance of the actors. Jude Law is well-versed in a weak, cunning role like Sam, similar to his roles in Young Pope, Side Effects, and more. The heroine should be the first time I've seen her act, and I think she interprets this stubborn and tough mother image well. The other supporting roles are all typical British actors, so of course, needless to say, they can do it with ease.

The whole story is mainly expressed by the actors, also because the script itself is very solid. In addition, the island of the scene is real, and the small town on the island is also real, which makes the atmosphere of the story very natural, and you can feel the dilapidation, desolation and despair through the screen. In recent years, there have been many works around cults. During the same period, HBO's Hometown of Lovecroft is also a cult of evil gods, Cthulhu. The film is relatively obscure, and the cult is just a background, not a proposition. However, the film does a good job of creating a horror atmosphere, but it is not scary. There are also no supernatural elements in it, and basically the curious things are man-made and can be explained. I think this way, adding a layer of horror to the suspenseful story makes the story more beautiful and more in line with the idea. After all, sometimes in order to reject the truth and evade responsibility, people deceive themselves, deceive others, believe in ghosts and gods, even if they become demons, they are willing to do anything.
