eighth day
In everyone's consciousness, there are only seven days a week, yes, only seven days. The eighth day is a day that does not exist at all. However, on the eighth day, God created George. Yes, George was born on the eighth day, a day that did not exist at all, until George’s "chic" jump on the top floor of the building , To verify this point, George does not exist at all. In a sense, this is a sorrow, not only the sorrow of George, but also the sorrow of the entire mankind.
After watching "The Eighth Day", I found that the world I live in is not an inclusive world. Heart hurts, but helpless. When I saw George’s first sight, I swear, I didn’t like him at all, and even started to get tired of this film, but with the development of the plot, I gradually fell in love with this guy who often "unreasonable troubles", although George suffers from Tang Syndrome is mentally retarded. But I think George is very clever, smarter than ordinary people. George has thoughts, just like normal people. It is just that the director and screenwriter turn this thinking into George’s illusion. I have to say that this is the screenwriter’s brilliance. It was originally a The mentally retarded is unable to think and make rational judgments like normal people, but the director uses dreamy thinking to guide George's direction through George's favorite musician and George's mother.
Movies are like many other movies. Two unrelated people living in different levels and different worlds, because of the shortcomings that each other can complement each other, are tightly attracted to each other like a magnet. Harry, a marketing instructor, travels to different occasions every day with MLM marketing knowledge. He is well-dressed, well-paid, and his material life is enviable. I have to say that he is a successful person in material and career. However, he is impetuous. There are too many things behind his life, Harry didn't know, but his shortcomings happened to be compensated by George, so they can become very good friends.
I envy George. Perhaps George in reality is more self-sufficient and more "spotless" than George in the movie. George's life is to live for his true self. You cry when you want to cry, laugh when you want to laugh, a pure and undeserved one. A worldly tainted soul, sincerely treats people from the bottom of his heart, but George's is a friend worthy of being with. There are too many things in him that others can't have.
From the comparison between the two protagonists, we can learn a lot. Harry is like we don't have a normal person, almost assimilated by this world, we have almost no self. In fact, once a person's lifelessness reaches a certain limit, this is the time when a person is most likely to collapse. Because of reality, we must work hard to survive and live under layers of shackles. Until one day I suddenly realized that I had everything but it seemed that I had nothing. I really had no faith, no pursuit, no "idol" of my own, and really nothing. George is different. George loves life. Bridge only has his own idol, has his own pursuit, has his own spiritual sustenance and support. Therefore, George can survive and be happy in a world that does not seem to tolerate him, but all this is only temporary.
I think I saw another person's shadow in George's body-Forrest Gump. George and Forrest are always so sincere, so they have friends, they both live so simple, so they are very happy. They all listen to their mothers, so they have always been confident. Neither George nor A-Gump doubted, because they thought that everyone would not intentionally hurt themselves. Always thinking, if in reality we can trust each other and be more sincere to each other, then, how comfortable and comfortable our life should be!
"The Eighth Day", I like it. The effect of the whole movie is good. The blue sky, the lawn, the ladybug, it seems that everything that enters the scene of the film contains a certain meaning and exists. I like George's unscrupulous teasing of the truck driver and naughty. Locked the dull, watching Harry being beaten, like George taking his friends to help Harry celebrate his daughter’s birthday, like George standing in front of the playground and shouting: "Open the door, open the door, for my friend Harry" . Every sentence of my friend shocks my soul. Perhaps no one in reality would have such a sincere friend! Maybe I’m more inclined to George in this article, but then again, the thing that impressed me the most in this movie is George’s personality and the friendship between him and Harry. They have fun together, joke together, cry together, no matter what Anyone who is injured can have a shoulder to lean on. In fact, one of my favorite scenes is that George and Harry are lying under a big tree, the sun shining through the leaves mottled on them, closing their eyes, and enjoying a peaceful world, as if detached from themselves, this picture of my uncle is frozen in me His mind and the angle of the camera are just right, and an aesthetic picture is displayed before my eyes, and what really touches me is the tacit understanding and feelings between them.
George’s death was a bit accidental, and it seemed reasonable, but his departure was so touching. When "flying" in the sky, George was still greedy for the world. I think he would have too much resentment. Everyone's face echoed in his mind, but too much reluctance could not be worth the real helplessness, no matter what his mother's call or whatever, George was once again sublimated and chose to leave this world that did not belong to him. The camera easily pulls towards the ladybug and flies into the sky, just like George's departure, except that George takes away all the restraints and shackles of Harry, allowing Harry's soul to regain freedom.
In fact, everything in the world is imperfect, but some people feel that they are perfect and cannot tolerate any shortcomings in their own eyes. Therefore, people like George cannot live by their side. On the eighth day, the birth of George was a little unbelievable, and George's choice to leave may be a perfect ending. No matter what, George who had been here brought us too much touch.
The eighth day is a non-existent day, but because of the birth of George, the eighth day gave life. I began to believe in the existence of the eighth day, because each of us has a George in his heart, and George is great.
