The protagonist, Walter Mitty, is an office worker who is too ordinary to be ordinary. The boss will not listen to him attentively. The information on blind date and dating sites is boring to fill up. Ordinary to have super high skateboarding skills but not supervised. . But precisely because of his ordinaryness and diligence, he made him persistently visit Greenland, Iceland and the Himalayas one by one, just to find a film that tells the essence of life. His original intention was not to lose his job, but also to get the courage to travel far from the heroine. Who knows that when he came back, the job was still not kept, and the heroine was still reunited with her ex-husband (he thought it was, but later found out that it was not). But he finally got more, because he got the essence of life.
I don’t know if you have any impression of the major tom in the movie, the heroine in the fantasy of the heroine holds the guitar and sings the major tom? When the movie is over, this song lingers in my mind. This song was composed by the British singer David Bowie in the 1980s. It is said to be inspired by the first human landing on the moon. In fact, I once heard this song in a Hong Kong movie "We got on the red van from Mong Kok to Tai Po in the early hours of that night". It turns out that Major Tom is an astronaut, an astronaut who knows that there are tigers in the mountains and prefers to walk in the mountains. Because he loves the universe so much, even more than his wife, family, and even life. The empty and lonely space capsule is actually full of ideals, courage and love.
Both movies quoted this song, I think, life really suppresses them so they are no longer young and dreamy. He who was on a skateboard, he was combing his punk head, and he had packed his bags for a trip to Europe, and he had already been thrown into the wind.
At this moment, Walter Mitty tried to contact Major Tom in his heart. At the top of the Himalayas, he finally met the photographer Sean. He wanted to ask what kind of picture the 25th negative was. What is the picture about the essence of life? But Sean invited him to play football with the locals and laugh.
Later, when he returned to the United States, Walter finally realized that the essence of life is to pay for the things you love, just like the 16 years he devoted to this magazine, and like Major Tom gave his life to space.
Are you OK? Major Tom who lives in the heart.
