the year of the dragon and bell will burn and reprimand at sunset;
you must roar, roar against the light.
——Dylan Thomas
Hollywood movies never persuade people to be a beautiful man quietly, but only encourage everyone to get up and struggle. Therefore, even if it is a civilization that seems to have no future at all, you must bet on the last bit of effort to send the best people in this civilization to space, and use the spacecraft to draw your own traces in the starry sky; even if the mission is on the verge of failure, In a different-dimensional space, one must also vigorously wave his arms and roar, trying to influence the seemingly unreachable three-dimensional space-time.
I don't know if the little girl Mofu heard the roar, but the book that suddenly fell from the shelf inexplicably was enough to startle her. She thought it was ghosts, and her father Cooper wanted her to believe in science and told her it was gravity.
Cooper used to be NASA's best pilot, but in this era of devastation and wastefulness, his skills are no longer useful, so he has to be a farmer. Even so, his enthusiasm for flying has never been extinguished, and he even suddenly rises up to chase airplanes when he takes the children to inspect the cornfield. Cooper, who only cared about the plane, handed the steering wheel to his son Tom, and Tom almost drove the car directly into the water. Maybe he feels that the world he lives in now is like a nightmare, and he wants to try Kick to jump to the upper level of dreams when the car is in contact with the water.
A family of four went to the football game enthusiastically, but the game was stopped because of a neutron bomb with a big bald head. The family who had returned from defeat had no choice but to face the sandstorm.
When foreign film stars go to China to promote, the domestic media always want to make big news and ask painful questions like "Do you like adding Chinese elements to movies", which reveals their lack of self-confidence in their own country's culture. Is it necessary to hear the affirmative answer from the foreigner to feel that the Chinese people and Chinese culture are truly proud? What if foreigners just don’t understand or are interested, and boycott them? Of course, such an embarrassing situation should not happen for this film, because this time the director deliberately and intimately added Chinese elements-the traditional Chinese clothing anti-haze and dust-proof mask. I remember that the last time Chinese elements were added was the 2008 Guanxi brother and inferior pistols.
The flying sand lingering around the horizon actually left a regular pattern in the room, and it was still a coordinate. Cooper decided to find out. Little Mofu also lurked in the passenger seat with the help of the messy layers of clothing, and went on an adventure with his father.
Following the guidance of the coordinates, Cooper and his daughter found a bat cave. It has become a base of NASA. Here, Cooper met his former colleague, Professor Brand, and the professor's daughter, Dr. Emilia Brand. The professor introduced to Cooper and his daughter the ongoing plan to deal with the earth crisis.
NASA previously sent an expedition team to outer space through a wormhole that suddenly appeared to find a planet suitable for human settlement. At present, three planets have sent back good news, including the core leader of the expedition team, Dr. Mann, the best space talent on earth. The photos of the other insignificant people in the expedition team were all given close-ups, except that Dr. Mann was not photographed, which made people have to pay special attention to Mann's identity.
Now NASA hopes to send another four-person team to these three planets to find out. Cooper, who was once an elite pilot and now sent to the door by himself, is naturally the most ideal candidate as a spacecraft pilot. While Cooper and others are exploring extraterrestrials, the professor will also lead NASA members on Earth to rush to build a giant space station similar to Noah's Ark for future migration to extraterrestrials. Everything is ready for the construction of the space station, except for a key gravity equation. The professor promised to split up with Cooper and solve the equation as soon as possible. Taking a step back, even if there is no solution to the equation, there are alternatives: Dr. Brand, who was with Cooper, carried hundreds of human embryos, which could be used to study the continuation of humans on a habitable planet. generation.
If the plan is successful, Cooper's children will also be saved from extinction, and a strong sense of responsibility made him accept the task. But it's not easy to pass the daughter's level. Mo Fu tried his best to stay, even moved out of the ghost in the study, telling his father that the ghost had left the message of "STAY". In the end, Cooper left his family without hesitation and drove to NASA. He still subconsciously explored the passenger seat to see if Mofu was hiding underneath again. It's a pity that he is really the only one in the car this time. Perhaps what he was thinking was to pull out the daughter who loves to play and sneak into the game again, and the two of them will play a little bit to dilute their feelings of separation. In fact, in front of life and death, even the ease of stacking up 10,000 jokes would collapse instantly at the moment of turning around.
After Cooper left, the professor often came to his house to see his children. Regardless of the professor's advanced age, he is a master at taking care of children. Master Bruce Wayne was the one who pissed him. Later, Bruce was put in jail because he became a magician and got married. The old man also helped him take care of his daughter for a while. Last year, the little fat man who went hand-in-hand with Murph and Tom's father at the Academy Awards, when he was sleeping outside and sleeping, his son and daughter were also taken care of by his father. After two visits, the old professor who was good at taking care of children became acquainted with Mo Fu. The latter was naturally talented and became his student and assistant.
The background music when Cooper's spacecraft left the earth and the first docking with the Great Circle Mothership, or simply the background sound, sounds very similar to the Vega in the "Time Encounter" performed by Matthew McConaughey. Signal tone sent. In addition to him and Dr. Brand, Cooper’s team also had a black man, a man with a beard and beard in a normal shape, and two robots with long legs that looked like large chunks of tortoise shell paste. . The first planet that everyone went to was a place with extremely rich water resources. It seemed that the conditions were quite good, but in fact there was a hidden murderous intent. There is a mountain-like wave here that can beat a person to death at once. The beard is unfortunately lunched here. It stands to reason that this kind of work of going out to Thunder should usually be done by the black brother, and this time he took it on his behalf, but the black brother shouldn't laugh too early. In addition to the harsh natural conditions, this planet also has a time lapse speed that is very different from that of the earth. When Cooper and Brand finished their desperate journey for several hours and fled back to the spacecraft, more than twenty years had passed for others. Cooper could only watch the videos sent by his son Tom over the years and feel the child's growth while crying, trying to save as little as possible the lost time.
Mo Fu had grown to the age when he was separated from her father. He found that there seemed to be a problem with the professor's gravity equation. The professor who knew her life soon told her the truth about the equation and the plan, and soon died in the hospital bed. Murphy sent a video to the professor's daughter, Dr. Brand, to notify her of the bad news and tell her the truth by the way.
There are still two destinations to go, but the spacecraft’s fuel is unsustainable, and only one of the two planets can be chosen. Among the remaining three members, two men agreed that they should go to the planet where the famous Dr. Mann is located, because the planet discovered by this most outstanding talent must be the most reliable. Only Brand insisted on going to another planet, because it was discovered by her lover Edmund. She believes that love can transcend time and space. In the end, the minority obeys the majority.
Cooper and others came to the second city...the second planet. On Dr. Mann’s planet, Brand received the video from Murphy, learned about his father’s death, and learned the truth of the plan: solving the equation and building an ark to emigrate aliens has always been just a cover. From the beginning, the professor had no hope for this road. He believes that his daughter's escape to aliens with human embryos is the only way to continue this race.
Dr. Mann took Cooper to investigate the suitable settlements he had found, but suddenly got into trouble. In fact, Dr. Mann was abducted to play Batman because his man was abducted. I heard that the NASA gang is very familiar with Batman. They wanted to use their power to find his man, but he was sent to this rabbit not to shit. The planet is here. He said that it is suitable for human beings to survive here just to let others come and take the opportunity to escape. After some wrestling, Dr. Mann defeated Cooper and robbed his aircraft in an attempt to forcibly dock with the mothership. Forcible insertion would kill himself. Dr. Mann, who had insufficient authority, caused an accident and killed himself. On the first planet, the black brother who had escaped because of being very cautious about not going to the thunder was still unable to escape the fate of lunch after all. The remaining two people, though relying on Cooper's superb driving skills, unbelievably successfully docked with the mothership and left the planet, but they have reached the point of exhaustion.
Cooper apologized to Brand, admitting that she should go to another planet at first. Now that the fuel is insufficient, I have to take the risk of taking advantage of the black hole. Although this scheme worked, in order to reduce the quality of the mothership, Cooper voluntarily sacrificed to cover Brand to reach his destination, and he was sucked into the black hole.
Cooper, who was sucked into the black hole, entered the five-dimensional world. After experiencing a brief emotional loss of control, he found a way to connect with his daughter Mofu in the three-dimensional world. He flicked the pointer of the watch placed on the shelf through the pages of the book, making the pointer present a weird movement of one step, two steps, two steps, like a minion like a devil's step, thus reminding his daughter of his existence, and punching a Morse code. To deliver information. He conveyed the data that the robot TARS collected in the five-dimensional world, which was crucial to Mofu's gravity equation, to Mofu, helping her solve the greatest crisis in the human world. Cooper, who let go of his heart, began to enjoy the extraordinary experience of pure spirit in the five-dimensional space-time. This section has a strong sense of sight of "2001: A Space Odyssey". The biggest difference between the two is that when the picture transitions from a ball of golden yellow to a ring-shaped mothership, it seems that Doge appeared for a second or two... It seems that even if you enter the five-dimensional space-time, you still can't get rid of mental pollution.
Cooper didn't know how long he had been in the five-dimensional space-time. When he woke up, he was already on a giant space station based on Murphy's theory. The space station reproduces the ecological environment of the earth. Since the residential areas in the space station are built on the concave surface of a huge ring, the scenery looks very much like that when Leonardo first demonstrated the dream building to Alan Page that the laws of physics completely failed. Scenes.
Cooper saw Murphy, who was nearly a hundred years old. Murphy told him that his current technology was nowhere higher than when he left the earth. He asked him to drive the latest spacecraft to a distant planet to pick up his partner Bran. Dr. De.
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -----
The section when Cooper entered the five-dimensional space, at that time, he just watched the excitement and passed. Later, when I looked back, I realized that the more I thought about this passage, the more interesting it became.
After entering the fifth dimension, all the time and distance of the original three dimensions can be easily crossed by Cooper. But in order not to overload the human mind, only a part of the space will be loaded at a time. Of course, Cooper's subconscious mind would choose the most critical part, which is the daughter Mofu's room. So we saw that the five-dimensional space became his bookshelf.
When he first entered this space, Cooper was full of panic and nervousness. At this time, he would not consciously choose a time to enter, so his subconscious would automatically load a moment that was most memorable to him, which is The moment he was separated from his daughter. At first sight of this scene, Cooper couldn’t hide his excitement, he didn’t think too much, he just wanted to do his best to keep himself with his daughter at the time, so the “STAY” message became his entry into this. The first message left after the five-dimensional world under the hustle and bustle.
Next, as Cooper got in touch with TARS, he slowly began to understand the time and space he was in, and thought about how to use it. So he began to "arrange" without panic. By creating a series of visions during the growth of his daughter, he imprinted the fact that he exists in the five-dimensional space-time into his daughter's subconsciousness. This is tantamount to a kind of hypnosis, or an incept in broad daylight. This kind of polishing of the daughter's subconsciousness continued until she set fire to the cornfield and then entered the study. When she stood in front of the bookshelf again and saw the abnormally moving watch hands, all the visions that she hadn't cared about suddenly emerged. At this moment, she was like Conan who had gathered all the evidence, a flash of light passed through her head, and the latrine opened. At this moment, Mofu recognized that the ghost was his father. He didn't think of it in a snap of his head, but because of Cooper's hints to her for decades. It's just that for Cooper, who is in the five-dimensional space-time, everything is done in an instant for him because he transcends the limit of time.
I think after helping his daughter solve the equation, Cooper did not stop contacting her. After the movie is played here, I will pay tribute to 2001 and then I am out of the black hole. This performance is of course no problem, because as mentioned above, there is no time limit in the fifth dimension, and everything happens in an instant and ends in an instant. I tend to think that the director is here to omit the trivial and short plots behind, rather than saying that these plots have never happened. In the fifth dimension, Cooper could see Mofu's life at a glance. He could send messages to Mofu at various points in a flash to communicate with her. So, after that equation is solved, maybe every Christmas Mofu received a greeting from her dad in Morse code; when she got married and had children, the dad who watched her in another time and space also sent it in Morse code. Come and wish... In her long and fulfilling life, my father has been by her side, sharing his feelings with her. In the end, Dad finally returned to her, holding her hand together, and drawing a perfect end to her brilliant and happy life. It is not painful to watch the baby daughter become a respected scientist, lead a warm life full of children and grandchildren, and finally complete this life without any illness and disaster. This is not pain, it should bring a great sense of accomplishment for a father. Thing. This interstellar journey made Cooper a real winner in life.
Nolan's movie feels black and hard on the whole. The hard thing here is not a sci-fi setting, because I really have no say in this aspect. The only thing I can see that the film is not scientific is that the order of the two supporting characters is a bit problematic. What I mean by Nolan is just a kind of temperament. It is also a science fiction film. Nolan’s movies do not have the glamour and magnificence of other people’s fashion and fashion. On the contrary, they appear cumbersome and awkward, just like a factory in a factory that looks old but keeps rumbling to announce itself. Also a dynamic machine. I saw the Batmobile in Nolan's movie for the first time that year, and I thought it was so like a big nose, how could there be a car with such a strange shape. But when I get used to it, I think this is the most handsome car. When it is driven by, other cars, no matter how luxurious and expensive, seem to melt or at least weaken instantly because of its vigor.
This black and hard feeling mainly comes from Nolan's tradition in shooting techniques, such as insisting on using film, not using green screens, like making those black and hard models, and so on. There is also a setting in this film that allows people to feel his tradition. Nowadays, makeup technology is very advanced. After a character enters adulthood, whether it is young, middle-aged, or old, it is usually played by the same actor. The superb makeup technology combined with the special effects of the post-animation make the old makeup of the young actors almost real, and it also reduces the audience's obstacles in recognizing the characters. If I were to shoot, I would probably let Jessica Chastain continue to play the role of the elderly Murphy. I guess she would be willing to challenge this role herself, but this film also asked Alan Burstin to play the role of the elderly. Mofu is a relatively traditional method. However, this seems to also have something to do with creating suspense, because the elderly Mofu appeared at the beginning of the movie. If the audience sees through the identity, the tension behind will be greatly reduced.
Christopher Nolan is a director with a strong personal style. His style is what I said above, black and hard. Because it is only hard and not sharp, in the eyes of some audiences, he will appear to be no different from other commercial film directors. I don't think this is a bad thing. I never feel that making commercial films is a shame. There is nothing wrong with making your work popular, as long as it is not deliberately kitsch. Most commercial films are more considerate to the audience, so I have always been very cordial. Generally speaking, the film is still the original formula and the familiar taste. The same style has been continued, but the family scenes that seemed to have been deliberately suppressed in the past have been more intuitively displayed in this film. It feels as if Nolan turned out to be a cool kid who doesn't like to talk about love. As he grows older, he can gradually become less cautious when speaking soft words. I personally feel that there are two major tears in this film. One is that Cooper is holding a trace of looking forward to turning over the clothes on the passenger seat before leaving, and the other is that the last old Mofu held his father's hand and said, "Because my dad promised." Simple The sentence of "perfectly conveyed the feeling of mutual dependence between relatives.
Recently, there have been boring discussions about whether this movie is a god, and whether Nolan can be called "Nuo Shen". I have no say in this. But I can't bear to hear some audiences say that he is Nolan and his uncle, and it is quite hard to prove that Nolan is not a so-called god-level director. An important basis for these audience friends to look down on Nolan is that he is making a commercial film. Even if these people feel that the ability to make commercial films cannot be used as an indicator to measure the so-called god-level director, outstanding performance in this area should not be a deduction item. I feel that just because it is a commercial film, it has a better chance of becoming a god. The characteristic of God is that his thoughts can make the most vulgar and most vulgar ordinary people understand and convince them. The theoretical system is rigorous and perfect, but it is not gods, but professors who are high and widowed.
But I also don't agree with just giving the director a god or something, mainly because it will devalue some originally sounding sacred titles, and it also shows the blindness of the fan community. Director Nolan also has his own idols. Many of his idols are now almost recognized god-level directors. It is under the encouragement of these directors to embark on this path. I don't know if Nolan himself is a god-level director, but I know that some people fall in love with movies because of him, and I believe that in the future, more and more people will join movies because of his inspiration and encouragement.
