Revisiting the classic drama and saying the feeling after watching it back then

After watching this film after many years, I can understand a little bit of the deep meaning in the film. At that time, I saw this as the first alternative future sci-fi film that I came across, and the impact was still great. When the land on which we live now becomes the holy land that everyone yearns for, what a disaster it will be.

Several scenes described in the film impressed me the most. First, when water becomes currency, and what we survive becomes a luxury, when we use urine to filter and drink by ourselves, for me, who is obsessed with cleanliness. , what a lethal force this must be! Second, when people in the future get the soil, the first reaction is to smell it and try its taste, just like the way we get RMB to see and test it and the ancient people get silver and bite it in their mouths. Third, when the protagonist breathes on the seabed with his gills and swims into the submerged civilized reinforced concrete city, think about how difficult it is to comprehend the feeling when the real living environment has become a kind of history. After watching the video, I made my usual living habits more serious. I love the current living environment and cherish all the earth resources I have now. Whenever I see other people playing with these resources recklessly, I have to use a lot of perseverance. Resist the urge to hold yourself back, grab that person and let him experience the urge to drink your own urine, eh? Impulsivity is the devil! The world is so beautiful and so bad! not good!

    It's not so much a science fiction film as it is an environmental protection propaganda film. In that era, fighting was not bad, but I just didn't like it~
