But I still like this movie. One of the reasons is that although the story itself is not very new, the director is very experimental in other aspects. For example, the passage of whale language, it actually sounds a bit embarrassing, but the director used it persistently, which brought out a kind of cult-like temperament. There is also the subjective scene full of heaviness and dizziness when Dory was accidentally thrown into the sewer by Hank the octopus after he learned the news of his parents' death, as well as the use of a lot of slow motion and flashbacks. seen in.
And I think the most interesting point of this film is its attitude towards the relationship between human beings and the ocean, which is also a big point of difference between it and the previous work. "Finding Nemo" is a rescue from a glass box back to the ocean. The humans in it basically only do one thing to catch fish, so it is very simple to maintain a consistent attitude of contempt for humans. "Finding Dory" is the exact opposite. After Dory and Nemo's family lived happily for a while, they suddenly thought of their parents, and then cried and shouted to find them. During the search, Dory's home was found in an oceanographic institute, so it became a journey from the ocean back to the glass box. It's weird to think about it: If Dory did find his parents there, would he be living happily in the aquarium with them? If so, it would be the most politically incorrect Pixar cartoon ever made. The turning point of the story is that Dory's parents also came to the sea to find Dory, and finally Dory returned to the sea with a group of friends to the song "It's a wonderful world". The director arranged the story and the three viewpoints very well, but obviously, compared to the strong indictment of human beings in "Finding Nemo", "Finding Dory" objectively shows a reality without making too many comments.
Dory came to the surface following the voice of "Sigourney Weaver" and was taken away by the staff of the Oceanographic Institute. The women also commented that "you have no respect for sea creatures", and human beings debuted as a villain. But later, we also saw that Dory's beloved home is in this research institute. The cured sea lions live here very comfortably. The terrified octopus hates the ocean and would rather be sent to the aquarium... Back to the ocean, Away from human beings is no longer the only option to happiness, a fish born in an aquarium, its home is in the aquarium. It is undeniable that, as the vulnerable groups in this place, they may also become imprisoned consumer goods because of their aesthetic value, or fall into a situation like a touch pool: all day long panic, restless, "Finding Dory" from "Finding Dory" The angle of the fish paints this perfectly. But it is also undeniable that the institute is a conservation institution, and there are injured animals that are actually treated at the institute and eventually released into the ocean.
Places such as zoos and aquariums have always had the attributes of a virgin whore, showing children all kinds of creatures and knowledge with tears in their eyes, telling people that animals are too beautiful and we must protect them. But from the perspective of the whole human being, whether it is out of beauty, the practical value of biology, or the maintenance of ecology, the protection of marine life is ultimately a self-interested behavior, and it is not necessary to take environmental protection so noble. From an animal's point of view, human behavior is not yet perfectly good, and probably never will be. The question is not how to completely eliminate human influence (and I believe the most extreme environmentalists are not willing to kill themselves in order to save a few animals' lives), but how to respect other creatures to the greatest extent possible. In "Finding Dory", of course, the research institute has its evil side. It is under the banner of "rescue, treatment, and release", but not all behaviors are based on this. But the institute is not a cage. The octopus Hank was extremely resistant to Dory's invitation at first, but it was only after Dory's struggle that it was able to come to a better new world. Likewise, human-animal interactions must have frightened them in the first place, but that doesn't mean it's all unhelpful to them. "Finding Dory" is not simply an accusation against humans, but an advocacy of a more respectful interaction between humans and animals.
Finally, there is a group of Taiwan Pegasus poet famous "Birdcage" Poems are able to represent my point of view:
"Birdcage"
to open
the cage
door
to let birds fly

back to the bird
cage
"Look Birdcage"
Open
Bird the cage

is actually a bird cage can also become a place to live, some birds may like to stay in the cage, the cage is not disappearing, but the cage and The forced boundary between the sky. In a better world, the Institute is still there, but not only is there no wall in the sea, but there is no wall between the Institute and the sea.
