The first second the room opens is hope, then the second second after that

I don't want to write this film review from the perspective of a child, although his perspective contains all the tears, I want to write about Mother Joy.

Just like Joy, after initially thinking that everything will be fine after escaping from this "room", all the bad, pitiful, and inferior things now will disappear after the door is opened, and will be with the child from then on Live the life he dreams of in his mind, let him know that the world is big, the leaves are actually red, there are not only three people in the world, but also many thousands of people, and it is also possible for him to appear on TV, but She was taken away by her mother's love and some of her own thoughts.

The first second this door opens is hope, and disappointment is likely to swept from the second second.

And the source of all this is "escape." This is actually very common, but we did not make decisions and dreams in extreme environments like her. We were in a relatively normal world, in a crowded city, and made decisions and dreams in a nice room. It is ridiculous to say to escape. In such an environment, whoever does not want to leave, of course, must do everything possible to leave. At this moment, all your ambitions are about how to escape this room, but you have nothing at all. Space and time to think about another serious and more important issue than escape, what should I do after you escape.
Many people will make a lot of decisions and plans in the second second. These decisions and plans are very beautiful. Yes, I finally got what I want. From now on I want to change and become a better person. But how many people succeeded? Just like Joy, it is normal to take the medicine and want to commit suicide at the end. I am not surprised at all, because people’s thoughts are ridiculous. All kinds of hormones are changing your thoughts, all kinds of habits are in the left and right movements, and then all negative Energy will end your life.

If you want to ask a question why she wants to take medicine to commit suicide, the answer is actually very simple. Everything after opening this door is not exactly the same as everything she imagined. However, at this time, as long as there is a slight gap, it will be Become the seed of your negative energy, then germinate and root and grow into a towering tree to block all the sunlight. If you are strong enough, then you will plant some more small flowers to balance the nutrients of the soil, one positive and one negative, this is life.
But if you think about it, Joy is such a strong mother, such a strongness cannot be expressed in words, and she still let it grow into a towering tree, she chose to kill it with medicine.
Because this is a movie, salvation also needs a beginning. Drama films are inseparable from salvation. Self-salvation. To put it simpler, it means self-change. To put it in depth means personality sublimation, deeper thinking, deeper understanding of the world, and change. Optimistic will laugh, because the last scene of the movie is usually a smile before cutting into the sunrise scenery or changing from winter to spring. The snow melts and the spring flowers bloom.
