The beginning of the film is the riverside of Angkor Wat, the historical sites that were originally covered by dense forests reappeared in the cognition of Western explorers, and the deep forests that had belonged to animals once again ushered in human beings. The Cambodia I went to in 2018, in my impression, is a dusty road, a low house, and a stone monument in the forest. Although I know that it is an ancient kingdom discovered by French colonists from the virgin forest, it can be Never realized that although the Angkor Wat with the banyan tree is still preserved today, when the French arrived, its more primitive appearance and what the jungle should have looked like at that time.
Human beings have always dominated the world by their own will. Animals are so passive. When the Khmer Kingdom was a prosperous capital, animals were driven out of this place. The kingdom's decline and jungles covered up the natural return of animals because of the departure of humans. As a result, they disappear from the sight of human beings and become wild animals. When humans come again, animals become human-eaters that hurt people. While animals just want to live a quiet life by instinct, everything is just passively positioned according to human will.
The director expresses thinking and dialectics through too many details, without direct lectures, allowing the audience to think for themselves, such as the dialogue between a white hunter and a little boy, should they be hunted or not; such as a dog and a tiger chasing at home In trouble, why do animals always "demolition homes"; the dialogue between the white hunter and the village chief's daughter about the monuments, is it right to leave these in Cambodia forever, wrapped in dense forests and never known, or to be bombed and cut off for luck It is right to be praised and amazed by Europe in the civilized world; when, in order to hunt down two tiger brothers and narrow their trajectory, the hunter set fire to the jungle and forced them to become a circle of fire, and was abused by the circus to jump through the circle of fire on a date, but in the end they became The key skill that saved the two brothers was irony on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also told everyone on the path of growth that no matter how difficult it was, every step counted; and the king sat in front of the cage where the little tiger was imprisoned, He stepped down, talked to the tiger about his father, and asked if the king of the forest would also be disappointed in his son. The cruel king turned out that cruelty was just a disguise of his cowardice and fear, and these few words also made the original supporting role. The image of the king was instantly plump.
It may be difficult for many things to be right or wrong in black and white, but self-reflection and self-reflection on problems are the most important things for me to learn from movies. Also thanks to the director, the last is a happy ending.
