"Cloud Atlas" is a commercial film with profound political metaphors and the theme of oppression and resistance (or "liberation"). Ignoring this central idea, it is inevitable to not know the true face of Lushan Mountain. In the ideological lineage, the Wachowski brothers and sisters are talented directors with strong European and American left (different from the left in developing countries), liberalism, and populism. The disintegration of human subjectivity and the resulting sense of fear hovered in the hearts of literary and art workers, allowing them to develop various film and television works that exaggerated the fear of "alienation". This is another work by Sister Chovosky. The masterpiece with the theme of "oppression and resistance", the plot is sufficient, very good

    Great movie, you may not be able to watch it at first, but you must keep watching it!

    Too beautiful! I'm going to cry! The story structure is great! How can such a complicated plot be cut so smoothly! What kind of talent is this! I'm so jealous! The plot is a very traditional plot, and the theme is also a very traditional theme, but how can the traditional things be so refreshing! I'm going to cry! I want to read the novel too!

And for what? For what? No matter what you do it will never amount to anything more than a single drop in a limitless ocean.

    Adam Ewing: What is an ocean but a multitude of drops?
