Before giving my testimonials about watching Tiger Brothers, I have to introduce the director of this animal-based film: Jean-Jacques Arnault.
Jean-Jacques Arnault is a famous French director. If you are unfamiliar with his name, then when you hear the names of "The Lover", "The Bear", "The Contest in the Final Battle", I think you will be fascinated by Jean-Jacques Arnold. Generate essential understanding. I introduce this "Tiger Brother Tiger Brother" is another natural genre film with animals as the protagonist after "Bear" by Jean-Jacques Arnault after three years of careful production. When I was shocked by the heart of "Tiger Brothers and Tigers", I deeply understood why Jean-Jacques Arnold took three years to make this excellent work. Because this is the language of nature that he conveys to our vision and mind through his own hands and lenses.
In "Tiger Brothers and Tigers", human beings are only minor supporting roles, but these supporting roles have a profound impact on the fate of the two protagonists' tigers. Humans are the only creatures on earth that can think and express their thoughts, but humans are not the masters of this planet. There are many creatures on this planet who share this land, sky, sea, air with human beings... They also long for freedom, love and emotion just like human beings.
The parents of San Ha (Tiger Brother) and Gomo (Tiger Brother) fell in love in Cambodia and gave birth to Tiger Brother Tiger Brother one after another. Their family lived happily and freely in Cambodia.…
When Brother Hu was frightened and climbed up the tree at a loss, Brother Hu heard the sound and rushed to help Brother Hu.... Brother Hu licked Brother Hu's hair, and seemed to tell it through gentle movements: "Don't I'm afraid, it's alright. My brother is here."; In this short scene, I saw the eldest brother's care and love for his younger brother. What is the difference between this and the affection between people? Who can say that animals have no love, and who say that they are just a group of people who can't think?
Jean-Jacques Arnold captured the innocent eyes of two little tigers with his camera. It allows you to feel their minds without language, and also allows you to have infinite reverie about their minds.
Just when the tiger family shared happiness, the greedy humans came to Cambodia to steal the Buddha statue from the ancient tomb. The arrival of the human made the tiger family tremble. They knew that human beings were dangerous, so they chose to hide in order to protect themselves. . But how do humans treat the tiger family? When people discovered the existence of tigers, they took up their weapons and shot at the tiger father.
Maybe you will say it will hurt me if I don't shoot, but how do you know it will hurt you? Life is equal, and you can't deny them life just because they can't speak.
The tiger father died in order for the tiger mother to transfer the tiger brother and the tiger brother. The tiger mother took the younger tiger brother first, and left the tiger brother. After the death of the tiger father, the tiger brother also fell into the hands of human beings...
I kept thinking about the choice of the tiger mother. It chose the weaker, that is, the tiger brother with relatively low resistance, and left the tiger brother with stronger resistance. In this nuance, I see once again a decision made by a human mother.
Brother Tiger started a long journey in the hands of humans. There were two places in this trip that touched me deeply.
The first time was in the village. At that time, the tiger brother was imprisoned in the village, and the tiger mother wanted to enter the village outside the village to rescue her children. Unfortunately, it was discovered by humans, and the whole village took up torches to drive the tiger mother out of the village.
At that time, I wished I could stand in front of the people who chased away the tiger mother and tell them that she just wanted to return her children, she was just entering the nature and duty of a mother.
The second time was on the road. The tiger brother was locked in a cage and pulled to the city circus, and the tiger mother and tiger brother chased all the way on the road, but they couldn't run the motor. So the mother tiger gave up, and she sat on the road with her brother, watching the dust left by the speeding car. There is despair and sadness in his eyes.......
Tiger brother was pulled into the circus like this, and he lived the days of being domesticated by humans. The tiger mother and tiger brother were not spared either.
The prince of Cambodia likes to hunt tigers, so the hunters set traps to capture the tiger brother and the tiger brother.
Humans are just taking the lives of animals for pleasure. It is just for the so-called status and glory to brutally hurt innocent lives. This reminds me of another story, a story about dolphins. When sharks attacked humans, dolphins used their bodies to protect humans, but at the same time humans suspected dolphins, and at the same time, countless dolphins in the world were killed by humans.
Human and Nature. Is it uncoordinated? When people instill the cruelty and ferocity of tigers in children, they do not tell the other side of tigers. They never hurt humans easily, they don't hurt life for fun, they only prey on their own enough food, and never plunder the excess. How can people realize that this idea is wrong when they only have this idea in their brains? I am grateful to Jean-Jacques Arnault for speaking in the most natural language~~~~~~
When humans hunted and killed, the tiger mother once again reflected the image of the mother, and arranged the tiger brother in a "safe" place. To face the human musket, it sacrificed its own life to divert the attention of human beings, thereby trying to protect the life of the tiger child.
You might say that this behavior is pointless. . . Maybe so. This reminds me again of a story from The Reader. When the hunter's gun faced the orangutan mother and child, the mother did not leave her child and escape. Instead, it held its own child high above its head, because it thought the hunter's gun couldn't get there. Like every mother, she protects her child with her life.
Would you pull the trigger when your gun was pointed at such a human mother and child? I don't think so; but would you pull the trigger when you're faced with such an animal mother and child? I think it is possible; maternal love is not lost by species ------------
How many years have passed. In the circus, the tiger brother became a docile doll without wildness; the tiger brother was kept in the kingdom's animal crew, and still retains the wildness of the tiger by human will. At this time people come up with a way of entertainment, let two tigers fight each other -------
I have to defend the animals here. When an animal's turf is violated, it will naturally develop resistance; this resistance is like when a thief breaks into your home. Therefore, under the arrangement of human beings, Tiger Brother and Tiger Brother will carry out a slaughter between brothers.
Seeing this, I can't help but worry, if this is a human world, isn't this a human tragedy of cannibalism? Even if it is not cannibalism, what right do humans have to let animals kill each other passively, just to satisfy their own selfish desires? How cruel is this! Animals are not like this yet, but people with higher IQs than them will be like this
~~~~~~~~ Tiger brother and tiger brother are fighting in the voice of people. The tiger brother has already become submissive because of the relationship of domestication, and it is far from the opponent of the untamed tiger brother. Just when Brother Tiger was thrown to the ground by Brother Tiger, Brother Tiger saw Brother Tiger's eyes~~~~~~ Those eyes were so familiar~~~~~ That was when he was frightened when he was young. Protecting eyes~~~~~~ It's brother's eyes at that time.
They met on the killing field arranged by humans. They forgot the existence of human beings, and they chased each other happily in the killing field~~~~ recalling the little bit of being together when they were children. But this is against the will of human beings, and human beings will never allow their violation. What human beings want to see is that they fight each other, not chase each other.
The tiger brothers and the tiger brothers worked together to escape the killing field. Before the tameable enclosure, the tiger brother stopped habitually. It was used to obeying human arrangements.
How sad is this time? Animals should have their own nature, but they have lost their ego under the manipulation of humans.
I can't help but think to myself. I have always acted according to the will of my elders, and always acted as they saw me. How is this different from the domesticated tiger brother? I am in control and accept what the previous generation recognized, but I have never used my own eyes to recognize things. I only know their opinions of right and wrong, but I never use my own heart to judge. Isn't this a kind of sadness?
Brother Tiger got rid of the control of human beings under the call of Brother Tiger, he decided to go with Brother Tiger to find his true self.......
Humans can't be willing to lose to animals lower than them, they are besieged with fire It is the way home for Brother Tiger and Brother Tiger. Brother Tiger jumped out of the ring of fire with the skills he learned in the circus, but Brother Tiger was afraid of the fire because of the nature of animals. So Brother Hu took the risk and jumped in from the circle of fire to rescue Brother Hu again and again. It encouraged Brother Hu again and again....... Finally, Brother Hu jumped out of the circle of fire like Brother Hu.
The hunter was stunned. I don't know if it's Stunned's affection with Tiger Brother and Tiger Brother, or Stunned and their abilities. But I felt the hunter's stunned. If one day animals have the same intelligence as human beings, what should human beings do?
After breaking through the siege, the tiger brother and the tiger brother went to the depths of the jungle together...... They returned to their home and found the tiger mother...... From now on, let's live a happy and free life
~~~ The dialogue in this film is short-lived, and all we see is the emotional fluctuations that Jean-Jacques Arnold conveys through the animal's eyes.
Because of how to develop between man and nature, I believe that friends who have watched this movie will have an answer in their own hearts.
