self redemption

I just came back from watching this film, in order to support the directorial work of the goddess Angelina Jolie, and also because this is the film that interests me the most in the same period. Some people say that watching "Unbreakable" is equivalent to watching 4 movies. The general idea is: In addition to "Unbreakable", the first half hour of the film is "Forrest Gump", and the second half hour is "The Fantasy Drift of the Boys", You basically read "Merry Christmas on the Battlefield" (also translated "Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence") in the remaining hour. But for me, I still admire the real story of the original author of this book based on his own experience and his feelings under the assumptions he brought into it. Sometimes, a movie for me is just a good introduction to the original book. But I don't know why, I actually saw the sadistic feelings of the Japanese officer bird for the protagonist, especially when the male protagonist Jumu passed over his head and crouched on the ground with a distorted and depressed face. There is also an inexplicable feeling in the air when the male protagonist went to his room after the defeat of Japan. Had to get me thinking. In the end, the male protagonist after the victory chose to forgive, but only the bird refused to meet. Sometimes it is because we choose to forgive that we are truly redeemed. As Mandela said: If we choose to hate, we will be in a cage for life. fear hold u prisoner, but hope and forgiveness can set u free! 2015.2.2
