If you are a solitary monster

"Christmas Geek" was also translated "Ghost". This film didn't shock my heart so much, it just made me think about the integration of individuals and groups. Jim Carrey plays a hairy monster ghost spirit. Although the plot is still old-fashioned, there are no shortage of highlights. This film has won the Oscar for best makeup. In fact, I don’t like the shape of the characters in Hugu Town, like being burned. The nose is simply unsightly, the ghost image is not so cute, I think there are too many wrinkles.

In the plot of the film, what impressed me the most was the little Cindy invited the ghost spirit to serve as the Christmas actor. He had a lot of fun, tasted delicious food, won the first place in the competition, and the final prize was a razor. He remembered that he had gone to school for Christmas when he was a child. That razor was exactly what he was going to shave off the green hair on his face, but it was counterproductive. His face was scratched and made even uglier, and it was ridiculed by many people. Therefore, he hated Christmas and tried to organize the people in Hugu Town to celebrate Christmas. He was wandering in every possible way, and his loyal dog Max helped him, he came to Hugu Town through the garbage channel, and after experiencing a series of happy things, what awaited him was ridicule again. He was not angry, and returned to his cave after destroying the Christmas tree.

The ghost spirit is a genius of machine manufacturing, and high-tech shadows can be seen everywhere in his cave. In order to retaliate against the people of Hugu Town and satisfy his dislike of the people of Hugu Town, he made a flying sleigh, dressed as Santa Claus, stole all the gifts from the people, and prepared to push it down from the top of the mountain. Later, Cindy played the role of an angel again, and the ghost suddenly realized that Christmas is not a gift. People are still happy without gifts and still sing the song of the soul. His heart was pounding, his heart became much bigger, and the last thing returned to the original owner, returning the stolen gifts to the people in Hugu Town, and singing and dancing with them to celebrate Christmas. Here, regarding the love of ghosts, I feel that the director is superfluous and does not appear to be harmonious enough. Martha finally chose ghosts as if it was a joke to the audience. Can ideals really surpass reality?

After watching the film, there is always a problem that lingers, that is, how to integrate the individual into a larger environment. Everyone is special, but groups are universal. If the ghost spirit lives among us, it is indeed a complete monster. We will alienate him, despise him, and even destroy him! Because he is different from us, he is a different kind, he is a lunatic. He arranged for himself every day: when do he start to be narcissistic, when do he start to be in a daze, and when do he start eating alone. He is extremely lonely and lonely. At the end of the film, he celebrated Christmas with a group of people. It should imply that individuals cannot exist alone and must be integrated into an environment, even if you like it or not. I felt a strong atmosphere of fun and harmony, but my reason told me that it was false and that people's hearts were not so friendly. Hugu Town is an ideal place, haunting the world of ice and snow fairy tales, a pure and lively place. But it still has a strict system, which can be said to be indistinguishable from the country and society in which we live. It's just that the people here are given a kind of noble feelings. Only the mayor is a bit selfish, but it's obviously not enough.

However, in the general environment we live in today, what we feel is more complex and dark, a mess! The personal way out is almost imaginary, and only a strong person who succeeds can freely choose his destiny and life. A large number of people must be attached to certain people or groups to survive, and personal freedom is severely weakened. If you are just an ordinary person who is content with the status quo and is willing to be an extremely ordinary person, it is better to say that you can integrate into this environment with peace of mind, so as to get what you want, and at the same time give what you should pay. Of course, there is no shortage of lunatics, perverts, and neuroses in our society. They are all alternatives and monsters. How should these people survive? They are not demented, but because of their very strange character and temper, they do not allow others to get involved in their lives, let alone wantonly harm their emotions and change their lives. Some people choose to live in isolation and stay away from the world, which we call retreat; some people pretend to be themselves and seem to be able to get along with each other, but in fact they have ulterior motives. How to put it, it is an old saying, everyone has their own way of living, their own way of life and rhythm, as long as they seem reasonable and reasonable.

Many people nowadays, don't they just make do with their lives?
