Vega's Azure Beach

This one seems to have been seen before. At that time, the memory was fixed on the blue beach of Vega, so when I watched it again, all the plots were not remembered, only the blue alien beach and the colorful galaxies within reach of the sky were still in my mind.

The first thing that touches people’s hearts in this film is its imagination. When the heroine, Judy Foster, drove an alien to teach us how to make a spacecraft through the wormhole time tunnel and see the fantastic scenery of outer space, I felt deeply. Amazed. This is a plot based on the dual foundation of human technology's imagination. The material of the spacecraft becomes transparent with the change of the huge electromagnetic force, allowing the passengers to travel through space without any burden under the protection of the invisible spacecraft. Eighteen hours of space flight was just a moment on earth. Time, space, and Einstein's theories that have been proved theoretically but cannot be realized in reality are shown in the movie.

This film repeatedly talks about the contradiction between science and religion, and guides people to think about how to solve the contradiction. However, the film does not deal well with the interpretation of religion. As the senior adviser to the White House, the male protagonist often speaks indistinctly. Too handsome and has no character. A deep understanding of religion must not be conveyed by handsome blue eyes.

In contrast, Judy's performance is very beautiful. Especially when the spacecraft saw outer space, the words, expressions, and the phrase "They should send a poet..." moved me.

Respect, awe and hope, as human beings, we not only experience our own insignificance, but also feel that we are not alone in space. The advantage of science fiction films is that they guide people to use their imaginations while teaching science. This kind of film is most suitable for children.

Repost this female scientist's speech at the final review meeting:

"I have this experience, I cannot confirm it, nor explain it, but as a member of humanity, I feel that it is true with all my heart. I was given such a wonderful thing, and it changed my forever. Everything. That is a prediction, a prediction about the universe, which definitely tells us how small and insignificant we are, but how rare and precious we are; that is a prediction, telling us that we belong to such a thing, It is greater than us, and it makes each of us no longer feel lonely. I hope I can share with others, and I hope that everyone, even for a brief moment, can feel that fear, humbleness and hope."

Some things, yes There is no evidence; such as love, ideals, beliefs. . . . But they are real. Science can't even explain, no evidence can be found, but we really feel them.

Human beings have been searching for the most beloved, true, and beautiful realm that cannot be verified but really existed in their entire life, and that is the blue beach under the Vega starry sky.

    I am too ambitious and want to cover everything, but it seems a bit boring. It is also a bit deceptive to say that it is a science fiction film. The lens of the mirror is really amazing, the universe beyond the opening and the end of the world at the end. In addition, is the supreme meaning of the outlook on life really the warmth of everyone? Also, the film says that 95% of the people in the world have religious beliefs, right? . . Just let China give it a question of 300 million atheists!

    A classic science fiction film based on the novel of the same name by Carl Sagan. The film goes beyond the scope of sci-fi, and explores the relationship between science, religion and politics in a simple way, full of insights. Judy Foster performed impeccably tough, truth-seeking, and pure astronomers. The beginning of the chapter is gradually zooming out (the acoustic signal is getting weaker). The picture of the universe is excellent, the climax alien lens is beautiful to make people cry, and the long mirror lens is also full of creativity. (9.0/10)
