Are you ready to run away from home

The film is adapted from real deeds. After ten years of hard work by director Sean Penn, and the permission of the protagonist's family, the film can be put on the screen to meet the world. Watching the whole movie, there are not many sections of survival adventures. There are not so many thrills and dangers as authentic commercial movies. Large and large conversations have become reflections on this kind of escape behavior, and deeply reflect on the incomplete personality created by unfortunate families. The tragic situation of young people. In fact, Christopher's behavior of living in the wilderness is completely attributed to family reasons. Children run away from home, which is a problem that every harmonious and discordant family will encounter. But leaving does not mean that you have to play in the wilderness. This is the standard for measuring a normal person. After all the hardships, I still don’t repent, even if I finally greet death in pain, squeezing out my tears and fantasizing about returning home to embrace my parents, that’s why it’s too late to repent. Perhaps this stage is just a more humane treatment by the director and screenwriter, or it is intended to guide the audience to think about family ethics. For the real protagonist, he had many opportunities to look back, but he was missed by him, or he deliberately gave up. This is not something that the general public can understand. It is not necessarily a bad thing to attribute this tragedy to a failed family education, but we should objectively understand that such a failed wilderness salvation is an isolated incident, not just a family. The problems that education can solve include more social and personal factors. At least this film reminds us that before we run away from home next time, we should have a rational and objective assessment of our abilities and the surrounding environment, so as not to cause unnecessary human tragedies.
