Many movies have been watched once and there is no desire to watch them again. If you come across a movie that you want to watch over and over again one day, then this work must be quite great, just like watching Kusturica's "Life is a Miracle" Later, I learned that there is another such great movie. After watching Kusturica's "Underground", I was so excited that I could hardly sleep, and I searched all over the world for his films, but unfortunately I only found this work "Life is a Life", which was made in 2004. Miracle". Crazy, surreal, "Balkan punk" soundtrack, these are the hallmarks of Kusturica. "Life is a Miracle" is still in the old library's style, so at the beginning of the film, when people were hysterical over the familiar soundtrack, I felt a little disappointed. But just because of the blandness and "inexplicable" in the first few minutes, in the second half of the movie, When war and love burst out, it gave people such a strong shock. This kind of movie rhythm reminded me of another movie "King Kong" I watched recently. The change seemed to be completed in an instant, and then it just went out of control. of joy and joy. Luca, a Serb engineer who loves to build railways, is optimistic and open-minded on the surface, but in fact his life is extremely pessimistic, even in an isolated world of Utopians. His initial state was described in one word, "numbness". Even if his wife is hysterical, funny and absurd, even if his son is sent to the front line of danger, he is still exhausted, neither happy nor sad, and is the only person in the movie who is not crazy. However, overnight his wife ran away, his son was captured, and he even met love suddenly, which completely transformed him into an extremely romantic and brave man. One of the most impressive episodes is the part where Luca and Sabah were lying on the bed and drifting in the wind among the trees. It was really beautiful. This beauty is not only the scenery, but also the strong sense of happiness in the soul. With the lover who loves deeply, with the son who loves deeply, love renders this kind of beautiful emotion beautifully, maybe at this time Luca or every moviegoer can really feel the life meaning. It is this sudden love that deeply affects the hearts of every audience. The character Sabaha is almost the image of a goddess in the minds of men, a small bird, industrious, beautiful, simple and lively. Such a character setup is very surreal in itself, which makes me deeply feel the idealistic plot of Kusturica. I remember seeing such a report, Kusturica said in an interview: "Love is the essence and the main point; it works wonders, ignoring childish innocence, we lose a direct access to life. Today, people have good reason to say Well-informed ourselves: Turn on the TV and think you know what's going on in the world... But, with a little more thought, it's full of lies, and then we become cynical, abandoning the childish innocence of life, along with idealism, Utopia and all very popular words are thrown away." Perhaps Sabahar is the personification of the childish innocence that Kusturica refers to. The inappropriate love between Luca and Sabaha also alludes to the cruelty of war, but I feel that it is more about thinking about human nature, as if Kusturica wants to put a raging fire in the heart and inspire the thirst for the true meaning of life , as the title of the movie: Life is a miracle. , people have good reasons to say they are well-informed: turn on the TV and think they know what's going on in the world...but, just think a little bit, and you know it's full of lies, and then we become cynical and throw our lives aside Childish innocence, abandoned along with idealism, utopia, and all the very popular words. "Perhaps Sabaha is the incarnation of the childish innocence mentioned by Kusturica. The inappropriate love between Luca and Sabaha also alludes to the cruelty of war, but I feel that it is more about thinking about human nature, as if Kusturica I want to put a raging fire in my heart and stimulate the desire for the true meaning of life, just like the name of the movie: life is a miracle. , people have good reasons to say they are well-informed: turn on the TV and think they know what's going on in the world...but, just think a little more, and know that it's full of lies, and then we become cynical and throw our lives aside Childish innocence, abandoned along with idealism, utopia, and all very popular words.
