In fact, the performance element of this movie is a very wonderful substance. Could it be true that Powder's mother will mutate the genes of the fetus in her womb after being struck by lightning? I think the answer should be no. But even so, I believe the story is true.
The pure Powder has super powers of lightning properties, a super high IQ and a strong body, but because of its immaculate appearance, he cannot integrate into social life. In fact, the "white and flawless appearance" here is to exaggerate the purity of the heart to the appearance that people can most easily see. Powder is friendly and kind, but he is sensitive and easily injured. He is sensitive to his appearance that is different from ordinary people, but he still maintains his own nature and does not want to be contaminated with the world.
Forgive my own inability to express myself, I quote a passage from Baidu Encyclopedia to express:
When human beings have evolved to a certain level, they don’t need to use physical bodies or words to build defensive forces, because the power of the mind naturally surpasses everything...” "Lightning Miracle" is a sci-fi film based on the above ideals, and I did feel the unprecedented power of the mind.
The protagonist is a "human" with a highly developed mind. Because of his mind-reading ability, he does not need a bright appearance to communicate with the outside world, and because of external defects (white son, electricity-absorbing body), he can more easily touch the darkness of human nature. , Human beings will naturally use actions to eliminate dissidents and protect themselves with lies. The protagonist knows the evil in human nature but it is very painful. However, this world is not dominated by evolved humans, and the world is too chaotic. , black and white, this is worth thinking about.... I
think of him when I go home. Powder.
Miss the lonely child, he came from the lightning, and finally followed the lightning.
He has the purest eyes, and he uses these eyes to look at the filthy world. I don't know what language to use to describe such feelings, [empathy] feelings.
A shy young man, said on the disc, shy, young.
There were always tears in his eyes, and I thought of Edward, the same lonely Scissorhands. There is nothing, no one to understand, no one to comfort, no friends, no relatives, no one to love. I can't pursue happiness, I can't be with the girl I like. ever similar. Lonely people are always the same, with an innate sense of alienation, unable to get close to others, and unable to make society recognize themselves. He can read the hearts of others, but others will never understand him.
"Powder", kindness is a beautiful and fragile mirror. For "Powder", I have a lot of thoughts in my heart, but I don't know how to write.
This is a film with a strong critical character, shot in 1995. Before that, Hollywood movies experienced a movement back to tenderness. "Powder" uses a symbolism to tell people that the world does not allow the so-called pure existence at all. If you want to survive, then you have to be in harmony with the people around you, and there is no other way. In domestic movie websites, "Powder" is described as a science fiction movie. I don't think this division seems to be true, or to fully express the full intent of the film's creators.
A woman is about to give birth. On her way to the hospital, she was unfortunately struck by lightning. In the hospital, she gave birth to a baby boy who was all white. The child's father was shocked, thought the child was a monster, and abandoned it. This child is the protagonist of the film Powder.
For powder's skin tone, some sites call it the result of albinism. This is obviously not the whole truth. White is the purest color. The author wants to express powder's rich and pure inner world through this illusion of external purity, and to set off the filth and filth of the world.
Powder is destined to become the most unusual one among all living beings. To protect him from ridicule and insults, Powder's grandpa hid him in the basement of his home. Even so, the surrounding neighbors are still talking about it. Finally, powder's only support is gone. A psychologist at a shelter took in Powder, hoping he would slowly integrate into the community.
Powder was mocked by her classmates. At the same time, everyone was terrified of powder's innate superpowers. In addition, powder has a super high IQ that ordinary people can't match. This again attracted great interest from teachers and experts. Powder's simple life has been completely overturned. He found himself being used. He hoped to escape the shelter, but was caught again. Powder can probe into the depths of the soul of all life. This made powder even more miserable. During an outing organized by the school. The deputy sheriff of the community leads a group of students to hunt without permission. They hunted a wild deer. The dying wild deer looked sad and desperate. All this was seen by powder. He couldn't face the cry of a life struggling on the edge of life and death. He rushed over, grabbed the Deputy Sheriff's hand with one hand, and stroked the dying deer with the other. Fear ran through every pore of the deputy sheriff, who cried out for help and wept bitterly. Because at this moment he is a fawn, a fawn whose life is about to be violently taken away. The film gives the audience a strong shock through this peculiar and dreamy way. The deputy sheriff stopped hunting for this, but was full of hatred for powder. Later, powder helped the sheriff to communicate with his long-term comatose wife, and resolved the long-standing grievance between the sheriff's father and son. After all, powder's good days did not come, and he decided to leave secretly. Unexpectedly, on the way to leave, he was attacked and insulted by his classmates again. They deeply hated the powder in front of them and hoped to get rid of it. They insulted powder in the most vicious language, stripped powder naked, and threw it into a puddle. Powder's humiliating eyes did not exchange for restraint and sympathy. He finally broke out. Powder used the power of lightning to stun the person who took the lead in insulting him, in fact he just wanted to get rid of that person's entanglement. This scene is really sad. It rained heavily, and a kind child was attacked and humiliated by his peers. It is not so much a physical conflict as a conflict and collision of the soul. Behind both sides stood the raw simplicity of life and the terrifying force of the world. Children are manipulated, their original kindness is gone, replaced by hate. They can't wait to shred the powder. What makes hatred take over people's souls? There is no answer to this question.
At the end of the film, the deputy sheriff tries to arrest Powder. Powder runs like crazy. There was a rumble of thunder from the other side of the sky. That is God's call. Powder smiled happily. Thunder and lightning masterpiece, after a strong light, the powder disappeared. He left, but whereabouts unknown.
On the surface, Powder's departure is the happy ending of the story, but in fact it is a ruthless mockery of human society. Why can't this blue planet hold a snow-white child? Is it because he is different? Is it because he has abilities that ordinary people can't match? The narrowness of human beings cuts the umbilical cord between us and the soul, and it will certainly destroy our future.
When did people become so indifferent? In the beginning, people are inherently good. When people mature, they kill everything that is good and good with their own hands. Because kindness is a mirror, she can magnify the ugliness around her. And it is precisely because kindness is a mirror that she is fragile, beautiful and fragile.
