In 2007, the famous American "LIFE" magazine ceased publication. Annie Leibovitz, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Larry Burrows... This world-renowned pioneer of paper media had many well-known photographers. Their thinking about people’s lifestyle and the history of the time was so advanced that I still look at photos from the 1950s. Will be amazed.
Of course, Sean appeared to serve Mitty, so I don't know if he is one of those photographers. But when it comes to photography, Sean has a saying that really makes people shoot the case: Sometimes I don't like being disturbed by taking pictures. If I like that moment, then I will stay at that moment. Therefore, in Sean’s memories, there must be many moments. These moments have an active segment before and after, and Sean has fixed a certain moment of his favorite, so he can remember At this moment, play and recollect, structure and reconstruction. Aftertaste is about memories, while structure and reconstruction are about dreams.
I think this sentence is probably the most touching part of the whole film, even more touching than seeing the cover of Mitty at the end. Because I saw the possibility of dreams in this sentence.
On the whole, Mitty seems to be a character with little growth in the film. He is always clumsy and likes to trance, and his life is not so smooth: he is 42 years old and has not married a wife. Later, he lost his job and ran away. Up the woman. The only difference may be that his brain was slowly turned off later. An adventurous journey of touring negatives, but the result is not surprising at all. I think most of the audience guessed that Mitty shouldn't be looking for negatives. So what is the meaning of this trip? There are many long shots in the film that are particularly amazing: Mitty and Sean’s dialogue on photography in the silent Himalayas, Mitty takes the film and returns to the magazine from the revolving shot from exiting the elevator door to entering the meeting room... the minutiae of life It was exhibited horizontally, but on the contrary, many details of the journey and the scenery of the bunker were ignored in the quick cut. Many pessimists say that Mitty’s journey is also a pipe dream. I prefer Mitty’s journey to reveal to us that life itself is worth paying attention to-and the journey itself is also life, even dreams belong to life, and this is life. .
Life is not a line in a history book, a shining star in the sky, a pink flower in front of a grave, or a young figure in a yellowed photo. In countless sketches of life, there are many consecutive moments. This continuity is life, and it tells the existence of this person. We are alive, all the time. There is love, tears, joy, sorrow, and dreams.
One day, if your dream is not a specific scene, but a long paragraph-this paragraph is made up of countless moments you love the most, they can be extremely surreal, but every moment is about Ideal, love, and life itself, then this dream can be intertwined with your reality and your memories. At that moment, you live in every fragment of your life, and everything in the world uses them to prove your existence with all their enthusiasm.
You are real, no one will say that you are fake because you dream, and no one will say that you never existed because you died.
You are real. This is the possibility of dreams.
I especially like the ending song "Stay Alive" and its MV. I am attaching its link here: http://v.yinyuetai.com/video/835648. In this song, singer Jose Gonzalez walked into a room. For me, it was a perfect place to call it the "House of Memories". In this room, he consciously arranged many film stills according to subjective logic. The moment he walked out of the room, all the photos flew out from behind him, and his dreams were intertwined with these photos.
The scene in that MV took place during the day.
