Thoughts on the unexpected spaces everyone encounters in life

When I just finished watching this movie, I was stunned. I only understand how the space of accidental triggering is nested, and I have no idea what this movie wants to explore. To paraphrase a popular phrase these days: I seem to have watched a fake movie. Later, I calmed down and went back to read what the two old men said before they were about to die. I gradually understood the results of their thinking after being trapped in these spaces for a lifetime. What is important is not this mysterious infinite space, nor how to break this predicament, but to understand the connection and function between this infinite space and real characters. After all, this infinite space is the opposite of reality, everything is not true, it is a lie. First of all, the main characters are three, and they also have certain connections in the real world. If you carefully summarize the final real-world footage scene by scene, you can see that the first character is a little boy named Daniel, who grows up to be a policeman in real life. The second is Daniel's stepfather, the fat uncle in the orange top. The third is the younger brother of a pair of brothers. He and his older brother were arrested by police Daniel in real life, in that corridor, but the reality is that they were not trapped in the infinite corridor. This is them in the real world. On the real reverse: The fat uncle in the orange top named Reuben went on an outing when he was ten. and fisherman trapped on a bamboo raft for 35 years. This bamboo raft is a dilemma triggered by the fisherman, who caused the death of Reuben's friend on an outing. The fisherman only remembered before he died that he wasn't actually a fisherman at all, having been stuck on an infinite train for the first 35 years of his life. The fisherman told Reuben to write down who he was in a small red book, or he would forget, and then he must not get into a red car. But Ruben didn't listen. Get into the red car, break the asthma machine of the youngest daughter, trigger a new predicament, get stuck on the endless highway and forget that he is Reuben. Then getting older and unable to live a regular life like "son" Daniel (in the real reverse Daniel is not his son, the previous scene about him being his son and then their family traveling together is just that he read the red book beforehand It’s just a written life setting). Life is such a mess. In the end, Ruben remembered who he was before he died, and also warned "son" Daniel to write down who he was and not to get into the police car. But history is always strikingly similar. Daniel got into the police car, read the red book, and entered the setting that he was a policeman. He shot his brother, created a new predicament, and was trapped in the corridor with his brother. Before his death, Daniel was extremely regretful, told everything to his younger brother, and begged his younger brother to help end it all. But in the end, the younger brother didn't remember who he was, got into the elevator, read the red book and accepted that he was a Russian elevator operator. Let the bees sting the groom and create a hotel corridor dilemma. Although the film does not go into details, according to the first scene of the film, a dying old lady in a wedding dress holding a red book can be speculated: After 35 years of being trapped in the hotel corridor with her brother, the bride once again Without writing down who he was, he walked into the next predicament and ended up spending the next 35 years on an endless escalator. How terrifying, like the cryptic soundtrack at the beginning of the film. The point of the film is to explore the relationship between virtual and real people in these infinite spaces. First of all, young people in the virtual world are brought into this infinite space. They are young and have the ability to continue to enjoy life and create life in this crumbling infinite space. As the dying old man said, young people enjoy life in the virtual world, generating energy and happiness. In this way, they also live a very happy life in the real world. But the elderly in infinite space are living in a mess, and correspondingly, their lives in the real world are not happy. This is what the old man said before he died, the reason why young people live happier than old people in real life. For example: (in the real world) Daniel really forgot to take his sister's asthma, but everything in the world has passed, and he has grown up. He graduated, married, had three daughters, and lived a happy life. life. But after middle age, he came home to see his wife having an affair, and shot and killed the third party in anger. Then he went to prison until dusk, and finally fell out of prison. All this took a turn for the worse because Daniel in the virtual world didn't listen to the fat uncle in the orange shirt and walked into the police car, triggering another predicament. And because of his advanced age, he could not live well in this predicament, and he did not generate energy. In reality, Daniel was very depressed in the second half of his life. The setting of this virtual world and the real world is very strange at first glance, but it does make some sense after careful analysis. First of all, why are young people who are brought into difficult situations happier than when they were young? The dying old man said that human growth is not only physical growth, but also psychological needs. Little Daniel has been Blaming himself for forgetting to take his sister's asthma machine can be seen as a little dilemma he was brought into. In this way, he has some self-blame on the way of his growth, and he may grow into a responsible person, so as to become a better self and have a better life. But in order to continue this happiness, you have to keep in mind who you are and understand yourself. In fact, this childhood thing is not all to blame yourself. You should learn how to deal with yourself and let yourself go. In this way, you can naturally get out of the predicament, without desperately looking for the exit of the predicament (self-blame). If you don't remember who you are and know yourself, but just blindly find a way to get rid of this predicament (self-blame), you will forget who you are on the long road of life, and then enter a new predicament, and your life will be stagnant. . This way everything makes sense. By thinking about this movie, what I understand is that, in the face of adversity (self-blame, frustration, etc., all negative things), you have to think about who you are, keep this in mind, and face everything calmly. Don't try desperately to escape. Otherwise, it is inevitable that your life will face the same infinite problems, and then waste your life. Haha, is it rising too fast? I haven't watched a brain burner in a long time. When I didn't understand it, I felt angrily that the artistic technique of this film covered up the central theme. Some of them have realized the wonder and the fun of thinking. This also made me think of one thing, when you don't know much about an art form and can't accept it, you can say you don't like it, but you can't say that the art form is wrong and bad, it's called judge . Unexpected space, unexpected surprise. Life will face the same infinite problems, and then waste your life. Haha, is it rising too fast? I haven't watched a brain burner in a long time.
