I didn't watch this film recently. I brought it up because for a while, I had to watch the end of this film almost every day before I could fall asleep peacefully.
Two terminally ill pure men met in the hospital, and inexplicably thought of going to "take a look at the sea". So they stole a BMW and drove all the way to the sea. But this BMW is a gangster car, and not only that, but there are guns and a huge sum of money hidden in the car. It is conceivable that the gangsters certainly will not let them go. But they didn't realize that there was money in the car at the beginning. In order to wrap their stomachs and buy clothes, they robbed their houses all the way, and attracted the police to hunt them down. In the end, under the mighty pursuit of black and white, they miraculously broke into the sea. Facing the vast sea, Martin, the man among the men, died of illness without regret. His fellows Rudy sat down cross-legged, a cover of Bob Dylan's "Knockin 'on Heaven's Door" noted when sounded, the picture gradually go dark ......
Strictly speaking, this is not a perfect movie, the plot is very elegant choreography , the action mode of black and white supporting roles is also extremely unreal. However, no one really cares about that. Everyone came for the famous song "Knockin' on Heaven's Door". Will someone be demanding about the plot after watching an extended MV?
Bob Dylan's "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" was originally composed for the 1973 film "Billy the Kid." The story tells how Billy the Kid is hunted down and killed by his former friend, now Sheriff Pat Garrett. The phrase "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" comes from the Old Testament Book of Kings, where the Lord said to Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, who was desperate for revenge, "You must not kill without cause, or even your sword will not knock on the door of heaven. When Bob Dylan wrote this lyrics, he used Sheriff Pat Garrett in the film as the first-person confidant, repeatedly expressing his contradictory state of mind and repentance. In Qing, Billy the Kid is his best friend, a real tough guy and a pure man; in Li, Billy the Kid tramples on the law, and as the sheriff, he has the duty to kill him.
It must be mentioned that this song has been covered by numerous superstars such as Gunslinger and Avril, but all of them have adopted its original lyrics. Dylan himself, in countless live performances, often improvised or added lyrical passages. The melody section of this song is very short, and half of it is fixed in each section, so it is very easy to continue writing the lyrics, and the melody does not need to be modified, just keep singing. The following is a relatively complete lyrics and translation I found:
-------------------------
Mama, take this badge off of me
I can' t use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feels like I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door

In fact, Billy the Kid is a legendary figure in the American folk, and there are many legends and literary creations about him. Similar figures include Johnny Depp's John Dillinger in "Public Enemy" and Brad Pitt's Jesse James in "The Deadshot". Their status in the minds of Americans is equivalent to the Chinese Huang Feihong, Fang Shiyu, Huo Yuanjia and so on. The heroes loved by our people are all figures who resist foreign humiliation and promote national prestige. We can get a false sense of national pride from these people; while the heroes that Americans talk about are all hooligans who pursue self-interest and violate the law. The villain reflects the old-fashioned individualism in the United States, which has been suppressed under the social system and urgently needs to seek venting.
However, we have to admit that Bob Dylan's soundtrack is more enduring and legendary than that movie. So much so that in order to reinterpret the mood of the song, later generations did not hesitate to make a movie to express it. There is also a remake version of this film in Japan. The two men's desperate run was changed by the Japanese into the last journey of the big brother and Loli's life together. But even so, this remake has a huge amount of interest in me.
The charm of a song can only be described as a legend.

    Too basic, can't bear to look directly...

    1. The so-called yin and yang differences are vividly presented in this film; 2. Being presumptuous before death is a comedy, but in reality, it is terrifying; 3. Black humor, some scenes are particularly funny; 4. According to your liking 5. "There is only one theme in heaven - the sea. How spectacular is it when a fireball falls into the sea at dusk, and the only thing left is a soul like candlelight of fire."

Knockin' on Heaven's Door quotes

  • Patient im Fahrstuhl: [waking up] What happened? Am I in Heaven?

    Henk - der Belgier: Sure. I am Sweet God and this

    [points to Abdul]

    Henk - der Belgier: is Saint Peter.

    Abdul - der Araber: Salam aleikum.

  • Martin Brest: In heaven, they're talking about nothing but the sea and how wonderful it is. They talk about the sunsets they saw, they talk about how the sun turned blood red before diving into the sea and they talk about how they could feel how the sun lost its power and the coolness from the sea and all that fire was only glowing inside.
