Watching this movie is for Hitchcock's good name. As a young man with very little experience, it is difficult for me to appreciate the deep connotation. The first thing I do after watching the movie is to rush through the movie reviews thinking about the plot, just like when I was a child when I learned Mr. Lu Xun's text, the explanation of the supplementary book was jerky corresponding to the understanding. After reading a lot of film reviews, the two things that impressed me the most were nature conservation and Freud's Oedipus complex. (I don't quite understand the latter, I don't think it's that serious)
In the dim twilight, black crows and white seagulls densely covered the entire picture. In the distance, a beam of dim sunlight projected through the clouds on the sea. The protagonist and his party drove away carefully. This is the end of the movie. a shot.
But in fact, I was more concerned about the superficial and unimportant love line. In my opinion, this is a pretty sweet ending. After being scolded by a stranger and then inexplicably falling in love at first sight, the rich lady pursues love with confidence and courage. She encounters physical setbacks—seagull attack and injury, and mental setbacks—after the unfriendly attitude of the male protagonist and mother, she follows the story of a hero saving beauty. Back in San Francisco to live a happy life. Although this understanding really exposed my ability to appreciate the author, but in the front part of the movie, Bai Fumei got the information of the male protagonist through relationships, labored people and money to buy a love bird and drove a boat to write a card, all of which looked so beautiful. . Coupled with the assistance of the male protagonist's ex-girlfriend and sister, it's hard for me not to like this arrogant, cute and kind canary. The heroine's hair is so delicate, fluffy and shiny. Although the male protagonist's appearance is not in my aesthetic, but when he returns home, he sees the lovebirds chasing after him and drives to the pier ahead of the female protagonist, which is really romantic. what! wonderful love! Refreshing!
In their love line, the more prominent contradiction lies in the male protagonist's mother. This is an old widow who has been widowed for four years, and has poured too much anticipation and love into her son. She was extremely insecure, and placed too much dependence and expectation on men on her son, forming a very extreme and even a little morbid possessiveness. She rejects and resists her son's girlfriend who is in an ambiguous period with an unabashedly unfriendly and even hostile attitude. But she was rescued by the heroine, and when she finally embraced the injured and weak heroine and smiled at each other, she seemed to have eliminated the hostility and accepted it in her heart.
Closer to home, when it comes to the theme of this movie, it is still the killing of birds. This reminds me of the electric bee killing in an episode of "Black Mirror", and I think it is the same moral, a wake-up call for human beings to rethink their attitudes towards animals and the environment.
The aggression of the birds is not given any reason in the film. They seem to have wisdom and premeditated. On a sunny day in a seaside town, they may suddenly remember that their number is hundreds or thousands of times that of other species, and they may suddenly unite anyway. Arise, they assemble, attack, rest, and then attack next, in unity and order. A bird's strength is very limited. At most, it pecks through the skin and causes bleeding. It can be cured with tetanus and alcohol gauze, and it may cost its own life to complete such an attack. But that changed when the birds banded together. (Of course, this is on the premise of not forcing humans to destroy them rigorously.) When different species of birds with different colors and different calls gather together to attack humans in concert, the result is the loss of life. Indirectly occupying the "habitat" makes them fearfully give up their territory and flee.
It's still a more clichéd point of view, environmental protection. This is an eternal theme that runs through the weekly diary of our elementary school, the politics class in middle and high school, and the thinking and repairing Mao Gai Ma Zhe in college. When human beings enjoy the melody of birds and flowers, they are unaware of their blessings. They are greedy and greedy towards animals, and cultivate the arrogance and arrogance of taking game as a delicacy and fur as a fashion. When it comes to the environment, they are short-sighted and short-sighted. Blue sky, a loss-making business of exchanging desert for oasis.
Every inch of land on this blue planet has been replaced by countless dominant species, from the summit to the extinction, going through a long or short period of time. I think looking at us from the perspective of the earth is like looking at the changes of dynasties and regimes in history. A short film I've seen before is called "The Next Floor". The greed of human beings who don't know how to restrain is transformed into eating and endless demands, so they rush to the bottom, and the result is that they are full of fat and fall into the abyss faster and faster.
Respecting and caring for nature is the right and duty to be respected and cared for by nature.
