Needless to say, the magnificent scenes, exquisite stunts, and superb performances in the film are outstanding. Just after reading it again yesterday, a faint joy and peace rose in my heart, and it seemed that I had figured out a lot of things.
After watching the film, my remaining questions are: What does the Lord of the Ring represent? What does Frodo stand for? What does Mordor represent? What does Aragon represent? In addition to the strong visual shock, the whole film has to tell us something.
My answer is this.
The Lord of the Rings is the sum of human desires, and Mordor is the general endorsement of evil. The creator condenses all human desires into a small ring. The ring does not turn, and the evil is immortal, even if there are epic heroes. ——The Lord of the Rings expedition team can only win short-term victories, not destroy them. Because the power of evil is so powerful-people who have become half-beasts, all kinds of monsters, one after another, live endlessly. Only by dissolving the Lord of the Rings (that is, human desire) in the red flame magma can a fundamental victory be won.
There is another ingenious arrangement. The sacred task of destroying the Lord of the Rings turned out to be the short and weakest Hobbit Frodo, not Aragorn, a symbol of heroes and strength. This seems to tell us that heroes, justice, strength, and will are not enough to defeat evil. Although these can arouse people's resentment and accumulate scattered power, they can only win in stages, at most, let the war quell. There was nothing wrong with each other, and peace was maintained for a short period of time, but evil soon swept across. Judging from the explanation of the film, it seems that harmony has been maintained for a period of time before, and the story that is about to begin is based on the background of the total decisive battle between mankind and evil. So what kind of power is Frodo the Hobbit? From the standpoint of their stature, the Hobbits are a bit like people’s childhood. From the perspective of their living conditions, they are simple, simple, peaceful, and peaceful. They seem to have the taste of Tao Yuanming’s pastoral style, as if they were living in a paradise world. This simple and innocent power just has the foundation not to be conquered by desire. God’s messengers activate it into a mission. They protect a thought, go through all kinds of hardships, and even rebirth after several deaths, and finally realize it. This is the most fundamental kind of power that we humans possess. He is like a spark of fire, seemingly weak and in need of protection at any time, but it has never been wiped out, and eventually formed a prairie fire. Speaking of this, there is another deliberate comparison. Guru and Smigo are one body. He is the most pitiful. His desire has tortured him so unnaturally, but he still has a thought, always in good and evil. However, in the end, desire defeated the only weak benevolence, and he became the martyr of desire. Everyone is the same, struggling. Even Frodo has gone through all kinds of hardships without being cowardly, but at the moment when his desire is truly destroyed, he a little succumbed. He lost a finger, plus the fighter Sam who never left him. With the help of him, the mission was completed.
There is also an interesting thing in this, which is to perform the entire task of destroying the Lord of the Rings, which can only be done by humans. Gandalf is the messenger of God. He can only point and activate various human powers to guide a correct path. Can't do it for you.
Yes, if you want to complete it, you can redeem it, you can only rely on yourself. Rely on justice, courage, strength, and will to fight, and rely on the clean and clear power in the heart that never disappears to completely destroy desire.
The taste at the end of the film is so enjoyable. Humanity has returned to the era of heroic rule. Frodo is completely reborn, and his comrade-in-arms Sam, who has been with Frodo, is also reborn. One is rebirth from the other side, and the other seems to return to life, but it is a life after rebirth. He can enjoy all the gifts of life and continue the unfinished story of the Lord of the Rings. Perhaps the perfect life that both the East and the West have been pursuing is Ha This life after rebirth is more natural, vigorous, simple, peaceful, idyllic, and family.
Thinking of this, I get more and more excited, because everything can be beautiful.
