This film, the ending really shocked me, and it actually died. Although the death of the protagonist is not clearly broadcast, but entering the wolf's den is actually a certain death. The whole movie has been about death, but their death is what the movie wants to tell us.
1. Death of a wolf: The protagonist kills a wolf at the beginning of the movie. Many times, you will be killed if you do not attack others
2. The death of the night watchman: take a nap, relax, not always vigilant, you will die!
3. Left behind: If you fall behind, you will die!
4. Oxygen-deficient people: Can't adapt to the environment, die!
5. People who are afraid of heights: Maybe many people have their own inability to break through, but at a critical time, this level must be passed. Can't break through yourself, die!
6. Abandoner: When you are convinced that you cannot move forward, and you choose to give up, it is equivalent to choosing to die. No one will save you, and others must move forward. Wait to die!
7. Drowned: When you are good enough to overcome fear and physical strength, but lose your ability, you will die! Strengthen your abilities in all aspects.
8. Protagonist: Overcome all kinds of difficulties in time. In life, you will always encounter difficulties like a wolf. Even if you can foresee death, you still have to fight to the end!
9. Facing death: Please give support to others, you cannot change the desperate situation, but you can provide warmth and do your best.
10. About faith: The protagonist keeps saying in the film that he does not believe in God. However, he still has faith, and that is his wife. Faith is a kind of psychological support, not necessarily God, Buddha, God. It is this spiritual support that can encourage us to move forward and help us overcome difficulties. Belief!

The Grey quotes

  • Ottway: [writing his suicide letter] There's not a second that goes by when I'm not thinking of you in some way. I want to see your face. Feel your hands in mine. Feel you against me. But I know that will never be. You left me, and I can't get you back... I move like I imagine the damned do, cursed. I feel like it's only a matter of time... I don't know why I'm writing this, I don't know what can come of it. I know I can't get you back. I don't know why this has happened to us. I feel like it's me. Bad luck. Poison. I've stopped doing this world any real good.

  • Ottway: Do something. Do something. You phony prick fraudulent motherfucker. Do something! Come on! Prove it! Fuck faith! Earn it! Show me something real! I need it now. Not later. Now! Show me and I'll believe in you until the day I die. I swear. I'm calling on you. I'm calling on you!
