One from heart and Good for soul
watched this movie on someone's strong recommendation and asked me to write something about it. Compared to Denzel Washington, I've never been too fond of Smith. But last year's me was a legend, and it still made me have a good impression of him. 2 hours of seven pounds is not a short movie, although the editing and narration is a bit uncomfortable, but I think it is a good story
"God created the world in seven days, and I destroyed myself in seven seconds. "The
title is very interesting, seven pounds, but not to mention that it comes from Shakespeare's famous play "The Merchant of Venice", even the 7 words are worth remembering. 7 is a very sacred number in the West. God created the world in 7 days, and created Eve with Adam's seventh rib, Seven sin, Seven Holy Virtues. . . This is a number with totem meaning in religion, and the director also interpreted the story in a religious way like redemption. This is the story of a man who saves himself.
I have to say that for such an emotional literary film, the use of interlude editing will inevitably make people feel a little awkward, and it is easy for people to lose interest after half an hour of ignorance.
TIM is a poor man. A mobile phone made him lose everything he had in an instant, and it happened to be 7 innocent lives who suffered. When he recovered from this tragedy, he chose a rather Jesus way to make up for his mistakes, the original TIM is dead, and now he is Ben, an IRS officer, constantly looking for those who need help people, giving them a chance to survive. Yet this kind of help imposes a standard on him, good man. The director arranged a counter-example for a nursing home, and Smith's angry expression clearly explained the importance of this standard. Christ's fraternity-style rescue that ignores people's hearts is obviously not suitable for this chaotic society. Although TIM is redeeming himself, he is also changing the world according to his own wishes.
He wrapped himself in thorns, and even his friends recounted the dusty past, he would be furious, and he did not want to bring any more personal feelings to the world. However, after all, people are human beings, emotional animals. He still remembered that he was the bird who broke his wings, and he still remembered to entrust himself to a trusted friend, it is the time, i love you, this is the sad end of decades of friendship. In the aquarium, the most splendid picture in the movie, the silent blue, the clear jellyfish, the warm family, the family love is always in the mind of this injured man, even the way of the final ending.
"When I become your heartbeat, maybe you will believe that I love you"
He could have chosen to use his life to help more people, but the appearance of that woman made this life painted in the place of 7 a period.
The woman he loved died because of him, and the hurt was like an hourglass, tormenting him little by little over time. Facing emily, he wrapped himself in a shell, so that no one could enter his life, he just wanted to alleviate his sins in a simple way. However, even the Maginot Line will be breached one day. When the ancient machine printed another beautiful butterfly, the fragile shell had been quietly shattered. He picked up his old life again, no longer pretending to be dan under the surface of the IRS, but engineer tim.
In the middle of the night, no wind, under the moon,
a man was quiet
, and the motor of an ancient machine
brought a man back to this world.
"It's the deadliest creature in the world, and to me, the most beautiful creature
in the world" In the play, happiness is destined to be short-lived, when spirit and flesh collide, when he sees this woman as life's In part, he found his own 7. But he forgot that when love makes two people blend, any one-sided sacrifice is an unconscious selfishness. Besides, he sacrificed his own life. He ended the sin he once caused with his heart, and brought the hope of life to the woman he loves deeply. He was not calm when he left, trembling and even struggling. He even chose the way he was most afraid to end his life, hoping to achieve self-redemption.
However, he did not realize that the meaning of life is not only to live, but to miss is a thread that will not be interrupted. In the rest of his limited life, this thread has been deeply entangled in emily's heart that does not belong to her. Just like she can't choose the heartbeat, she can't choose this line to restrain this weak heart again and again. The
beginning of the story, the blind salesman feels Tim's voice in the dark,
the ending of the story, he is in the light I saw Tim's heart.
A man he had never seen before,
brought happiness to 6 people in this world,
but left behind a woman who could feel his heartbeat all the time, guarding that sadness alone.
Through his eyes he saw his heart beating in her body
