Today after the exam, I took the time to watch the movie The Grey in the afternoon. I am reluctant to call the translated name of the film "Wolf War", because the meaning of the film itself goes far beyond the confrontation between man and wolf. The original name The Grey seems to be able to replace this sense of ignorance and a long-term future.

Of course, it must be aimed at veteran Liam Neeson. The 60-year-old Big Brother is another masterpiece after the hurricane rescue. No longer is a retired agent who is alone in France to save his daughter, this time Liam plays a lost forest after a plane crash to lead the survivors and the wolves there. A tragic hero who fights.

This time the role seems to be tailor-made for him. A man who lost his fighting spirit after losing his wife, heard the wolf howling in the snowstorm in Alaska, and made him give up suicide. Here I seem to think of Tristin, The person who hears the cry of the big bear in his heart seems to have a wolf and a bear in his heart, calling out in your fragile heart, calling for the strength and courage of life. But the irony is that the wolves gave him the will to live and they led him down a desperate path to survival.

After the plane crash, the seven people thought it was good luck from God, but then they found that they were rounded up by wolves, and one after another was torn apart and destroyed by the wolves. In this snowstorm, there are no miracles, only those The thirsty eyes of the coveted wolf. Here the wolves seem to represent fate, the pain and danger that can never be escaped. It may be impossible to get rid of them. The only thing that can be done is to persevere, to persevere without any doubt, because this is hope. where. When John finally told Ottway that he had given up and was unwilling to move forward, that compromise seemed to be forgivable, just like in life we ​​were brought down by suffering and loneliness one after another, when there is no hope in sight When the light comes, we also give up and wait quietly for death.

At the end of the film, Ottway was the only one left in this snowstorm, surrounded by hungry wolves, and he read again the poem his father taught him:

"Once more into the fray

Into the last good fight I'llever know

Live or die on this day

Live or die on this day"

remembered what his deceased wife said to him, "Don't be afraid", so he turned to face the alpha wolf, fighting against the last blow with tenacious eyes, determined to die with fate, as if Hearing his roaring "COME ON" between heaven and earth

, I was shocked at the end of the story. Many times life is like the white snow and the endless forest. There are no miracles, no light, forever. There are wolves who can't get rid of them roaring, staring, threatening, waiting, and tearing your soul and body. I think of the years before the college entrance examination, those struggling but depressing days, and when I came to college. Loneliness and wandering, I think of the unsatisfactory days of Tiantai when I was 19 years old. I thought that after the college entrance examination, my life would be easy. I thought that when I got to college, my life would be smooth, but just like in the movie, killing a wolf, and The whole wolf pack, when you stop is the moment when the wolf pack surrounds you, the fate is unknown, but loneliness and fear will accompany a lifetime, and fear and loneliness are often the driving force, without fear, there is no courage to seek light. With determination, no matter how many wolves come to us in the forest of life, we will bravely turn around and face them, face your fears, face your loneliness, face your unknown.

LIVE OR DIE ON THIS DAY! !
