The first feeling after watching it is the first sentence "I don't know what to say" said by the reporter who interviewed Pi in the film after listening to Pi's story. The moving and shocking are not at a certain moment, but the soul is not peaceful from beginning to end. These two hours contain too much content, which makes you enjoy and makes you crazy. When you are quiet, the unprecedented peace It struck, and there was too much emotion.
First of all, the pictures, special effects and soundtrack are the ultimate beauty, making the movie a "artwork" again. The main character, the big brindle cat (I think it is the most handsome tiger in the world) still uses real tiger shooting combined with CG effects, seamlessly. The 3D you will see is no longer a means of making money, but really improves the viewing effect.
Speaking of tigers, some people joked that Ang Lee would definitely say "everyone has a Richard Parker (the tiger's name) in their heart". (Because Ang Lee said, "Everyone has a Brokeback Mountain") Indeed, director Ang Lee’s handwriting is everywhere in the movie, and his thoughts are precipitated. This is where I think he can be proud of Hollywood. In my eyes, he has been a few blocks away from many big commercial directors.
My title said this is the pinnacle of Ang Lee, because the filming process of this film focused on the four most notorious challenges in filming—children, animals, water scenes and 3D. He would not make another such difficult one. The movie is out. As a film adapted from a best-selling novel, it is said that it has been restored to a large extent. I read a book review written by a fan on Time.com in 2009, in which she extracted a favorite description in the book, and it happened to be the place where I burst into tears when I watched the movie. I believe that fan is now after watching the movie. It must be very gratifying. Not surprisingly, this film will win all the special effects awards for the Oscars. As for the best film, I have not found any film of this year that has the strength to compete with it.
The last thing worth mentioning is the actor Sharma of the protagonist Pi. For a novice, this is almost a perfect performance. He himself said in the interview that later, he didn't feel that he was acting at all, and Director Ang Li easily mobilized his feelings, and moved freely in joy, anger, sorrow, and joy.
A 16-year-old boy, a tiger, a lifeboat, and a vast ocean-the story is simple and simple; the intertwining of three religions, the power of faith, and dream meditation are complex and difficult to understand. In short, it doesn't matter if you don't understand the religion and some humanistic ideas. You can also feel the shock of your heart, you can cry and laugh, and you will remember the feelings of the time long, long after you walked out of the movie theater. Today, when the movies are turning to pure commercials and good storytellers are gradually disappearing, you can't imagine my excitement after watching it. As an English film review said, “I’m not sure if Pi’s Drifting will make you believe in God, but this movie will make you believe in movies again.” Seeing this, my tears came down again.
Of course, "The Fantasy Drifting of Young Pi" is not perfect. The American media has also expressed some dissatisfaction with the script and structure, but no one doubts that it is a magnificent movie, and it is a movie lover who is willing to cherish it for a lifetime. movie of.
(I won’t talk about the plot analysis here. The spoilers are shameful. After it’s released, everyone is welcome to discuss it. I bought a book for making this movie and an original novel on Amazon. I have to take a good taste of the films on the top ten movie list.)

"The Story Teller Tells The Most Moving Story"
Li Ang The movies of's tend to have a deeper level of thought accumulation than simple storylines. When you watch the movie "The Fantastic Drifting of the Junior School", you are ready to follow the Junior School and embark on a journey of prosecuting the meaning of life.
His name is Pi.
First of all, you might think that the protagonist's name is a bit strange. It is called Pi, and the pronunciation is the same as the mathematical symbol Л. Someone also said in the book review that he almost missed this wonderful story because it seemed to popularize the common sense of mathematics, Pi. In fact, the author Jan Martel has a special meaning for the young man. Л will never repeat itself and will never end, as a metaphor for the unknown and fickleness of life. Living in this world, people always use the invisible rules and regulations around them to restrain themselves-social norms, ethics, love and bondage of relatives and friends, religious beliefs, etc., it is like putting yourself in a cage , Just like the animals in the zoo. Freedom is restricted, but it also protects itself to a certain extent and isolates itself from the dangers of the outside world. In the eyes of ordinary people, the outside world is so elusive, so perilous, and people hate uncertainty. And the juvenile faction who chose to believe in the triple religion was forcibly separated from his family and embarked on a journey to face the unknown Pacific alone, and what he didn't know was that the danger was not only outside, but also on his lifeboat. Can faith save him? Which god can help him through the difficulties?
The tiger's name is Richard Parker
There is also a tiger who wanders with Pie, named Richard Parker. For a tiger, this is also a strange name. This name has a background. Richard Parker is the name of several real or fictional shipwrecks. One of them was eaten by fellow shipmates in Poe's novel. The tiger in the movie is naturally a shipwreck victim, and the juvenile school needs to survive and must fight endlessly with Tiger Parker. Since the survival guidebook on the lifeboat cannot introduce "how to get along with the beasts of the same ship" Chapter One, that faction can only rely on his own wisdom. At first, the Junior School needed to be vigilant day and night to keep away from the tiger. Later, in order to prevent the tiger from starving to death, he also needed to fish and feed the tiger. Later, he figured out some circus animal training methods to "teach" Parker. How to live with him. The most memorable scene in the film is a psychological description of Pai after the storm. He wants to know what Parker, the tiger standing on the bow of the ship, looking at the calm sea at this moment, is thinking. The close-up of Parker is no longer usual. A majestic and fearsome beast, it seems to have added a trace of human wisdom and kindness. As for the other animals that fell into the lifeboat at the same time, what happened to the zebra, the orangutan, and the hunting dog, you need to watch the film yourself to know.
Another story?
This is the story we saw when we watched the movie, and in the last part of the film, at the request of the shipwreck investigator sent by the Japan Transportation Bureau, the adult pie sitting in a chair said "better" s story". In this story, there are no animals. On the lifeboat is a sailor, a cook, and Pie and his mother. This version of the story is cruel and bloody. The chef ate the sailor and killed his mother. Later, he killed the chef again, and finally survived. Which story actually happened? The adult school didn't say, he just asked leisurely which story the writer who interviewed him liked, "the one with animals". Then he told the writer that now this story belongs to you, and you can write it as you like.
Someone interpreted that, God, did Richard Parker and other animals never exist, and the tiger refers to the greatest enemy deep in the heart of the juvenile-self who fears unknown dangers? In literary works, beasts are always used to represent primitive humanity, so the series of struggles, adaptations, and mutual differences between the Drifting Middle School and Parker are actually metaphors of their psychological changes? Just like Pie, I also want to tell you now that after watching the movie, this story belongs to you. You can understand it as you wish.
Because the film is adapted from a novel, it is said that the senior executives of the production company have said that the philosophical part of the book is good because they are worried about the audience. However, Director Ang Lee has always insisted. He said, "We need to tell the story Good (storytelling), otherwise life will only go back and forth, like the number Л." So his films always have a high universal value, and at the same time they are also interesting for movie fans. In dealing with many entangled plots, Director Ang Lee chose to leave the dialectical opportunity to the actors and the audience. Whether it is joy or sorrow, true or false, or unfortunate or fortunate, it is all thoughts left by you after watching the movie. Think, it's worth remembering again and again. He also stated in the interview that for a while he wanted to make the most expensive art film title for a while, but then he thought about it, “After you can’t arouse people’s appetite, you can only do self-perception, and there is no collective inspiration for society. Sexuality.” So Director Ang Lee is constantly challenging himself to achieve a balance between business and art. Looking at the world, he is indeed the first person who combines Chinese and Western culture and business and art.
"This beach is so soft, solid, and vast, like God's chest, and there is a place where two eyes are shining with joy."
