Smile. At the beginning, he grabbed the music of the play and led the audience to see Ethan's involuntarily but orderly and high-tech life. Stunning. He has a noble identity, a proud past, a trivial life carefully designed for him, a beautiful and dignified private nurse, and he is the owner of a palace. In the depths of the deep ancient courtyard and the ubiquitous classical chandeliers, he has complete His own radio show, with big fans and followers. All the attention, he seems to be the god of this world. So the following story happened in this palace, this man is a magician.
Magic performances have a huge proportion in the film, and I have to admire the director's mastery of the picture. All the sets, colors, including the magic plot, have brought me into Ethan's magical world more than once. Whether it's the long ladder of lights that suddenly grows on the stage, the paper snow flying out of the magician's hands, or the red candle trick that finally drives Ethan off the stage, it seems that magic is portrayed in the film too well and beyond this The imagination that technology can carry. It is precisely because of this blatant exaggeration that Magic is the most high-profile set designer and foreshadowing of the film, so the story becomes more and more logical.
Because all magic only lives in Ethan's memory, the magician Ethan is a disabled person, and he is completely disabled. A magician thought that his whole body was paralyzed, leaving only the dignity that the magician still wants to go back to on the day of the magician.
But can't go back, so the magician is eager to end his life, so this is a story about "euthanasia". With laws, religions, and people's simple values overruled a thousand times over "euthanasia" in the first place, the news that the famous magician chose to die naturally caused an uproar in the country. "You're an amazing person", "We can't accept your death"... The endless denials, reprimands, and even abuse once drowned Ethan's life, and of course, concealed his choices. Yes, yes, if Ethan is euthanized, how many people will no longer believe in the so-called strength, perseverance, and self-improvement?
Involuntarily, a man who cannot be completed by any simple action, no matter how charming his past is, no matter how obsessed people are with his past, how can he live in the memory of others? How can a man have the courage to cry if he can't even wipe his tears away?
One of the most profound scenes, stepping out of his palace for the first time in decades, on the way to the court, the long-lost outside world made Ethan show a rare smile, how many men took off their hats against the wind. Enjoying such "release", how sensitive is the scarecrow who can't move with himself in the wind in the fields beside the road. He has magic, he can go to heaven and earth, and even if he can be remembered as the greatest magician by the history of this country, he cannot be the master of his own life.
You can't control your own life, and you can't even choose to die.
In fact, there is no magic in the world, there is no omnipotent magician, but there are countless merry-go-round horses and scarecrows who are kept out of it. only wither.
