Many people don't understand why there are only a few exceptions. It cannot be explained logically, but if you think about it from another angle, you can understand from a philosophical point of view. There is a scene in the film. The teacher was lying on the billiard table. He felt that he had waited for a long time, and the child had not come back, so he went to the bathroom to see, but in the bathroom he saw only empty clothes, so he went to another door to find the child, and after a bright light After the trail, he saw the door at the end, pushed open the door, and there was a wall on the other side. Then he disappeared, I don't know if everyone remembers when the projectionist first appeared and said that he was hit hard by "man" or more precisely by the shadow, so that he was injured and lying at the station. In fact, hope is placed on the shadow of the person's body, that is, the soul. This projectionist's soul has been hit hard by fate, just like someone said that reality hits your head like a brick, you are injured, but you still Haven't given up hope entirely. Looking at the dialogue between the projectionist and the female clinician, we will observe that this person is withdrawn. When he is in a person's loneliness, he cannot bear it, and he does not have strong beliefs. So he told the boy to play music, he begged the female doctor to give him love, he had to depend on something, something human, without which his hope was just a castle in the air. In the story he told, he explained to himself that he was that kind of person. They don't understand the concept of that word in that story. In fact, this concept refers to the mental state of that person. When he went to see the boy, in fact his lonely character was doomed to think that the boy had disappeared, but he was comforting himself and giving himself the illusion. So he opens the last door, and all his fragile heart will see is a wall.
In fact, shadows are people, people are shadows, and in the eyes of people those dark things are shadows. In the shadow's eyes, those people are also dark things, only in relative terms. Because in the last shot of the film, there are shadows talking to themselves, they say I exist. It is conceivable that they also regard people as shadows in another dimension. So all this is just an illusion of man himself. They feel this way when their spirits are in a state of isolation, with only a little hope left. When the belief in this hope is not firm, driven by fear, he sees those people as shadows. He felt that everyone became empty clothes. When the projectionist saw the boy disappear, it was very strange that the boy reappeared later. In fact, the boy was always there, but the person felt that way. These few exceptions will feel left out in the light, surrounded by darkness. Only because of their spiritual loneliness imagine themselves so. Serious recall In fact, we have all experienced such times, when you are not understood, when you feel disconnected from reality, even if you are in a lively crowd, you will still feel lonely. The surrounding environment appears to you as an illusion and becomes a shadow. Sometimes people are afraid because of some things. The more people experience from childhood to adulthood in the process of growing up, the more fragile their spiritual beliefs will be, because reality hits you hard, making the fairy tale dream you thought died and lonely. , death, love that can't be given up, and all kinds of fears, your soul is alone. And children are carefree, even if they have troubles, because they don't have a lot of experience, they still have that kind of beautiful and upward belief in their bones. So the child is in a state of growth. And adults are precisely when they start to decline from the highest point of their growth trajectory, when they are about to die.
The TV host has been working hard, he is not willing to be at the mercy of the darkness, and he takes the initiative to fight for it, but he is still vulnerable. Relying on his initiative without belief is only based on human self-comfort.
If you look back and observe, you will find that the gathering place for the adults is in the bar, and the gathering place for the two children is in the church. These two places represent two states, and in the bar is a soulful spirit of exaggerated entertainment. In the church it is a firm and pure faith. Everyone is born as a pure and soft baby with no clothes on. After growing up, driven by all kinds of sensual desires and tempted by all kinds of grandiose, they gradually change color in the big dye vat of adult society. They must have something to lean on or they will feel like they are being swallowed up by darkness, and the beliefs of the soul are built on the accumulation of material and love in human society. Without these things to rely on, the spirit is very fragile. Follow the cycle of birth, old age, sickness, and death. Even though he keeps shouting that he exists and that his belief exists, he is actually just deceiving himself. This movie is made in a very realistic state of mind.
