Whales: Whale Diplomacy to Ease Cold War Mentality

Kaitlyn 2022-03-28 08:01:02

The three giant whales of a family of three are trapped in the Arctic and are about to freeze in a corner of the sea, attracting talented people from all over the world to devote their minds and try their best to find a way for the whales to escape. Persuade local farmers who live by whaling, attract a large number of sensational media reports, and implore the government to use military force to rescue. All kinds of unimaginable difficulties and resistance are intertwined at any time, forcing people to stay away. Persistence is always the magic weapon of invincibility and the coup of winning. Finally, through the concerted efforts of friends and foes, after the President of the United States made a phone call to the former Soviet Union, the ruthless Russians agreed to help and open the way for the whales to survive, and finally won the unison of the people of the world. While protecting rare species, it also greatly demonstrates the broad and inclusive mind of human beings.

The film is based on the novel "Let the Whale Free", which is said to be adapted from a real event. It focuses on environmental awareness and combines political topics and love plots to spread the ins and outs of the entire incident. Although there were still 200 wars in the world at that time, and the United States and Russia were in a stalemate of Cold War mentality, the three trapped whales still focused the eyes of most people. In the middle, a warm current that purifies the human heart is flushed out. Prove to the world that as long as we are willing, any difficulties and prejudices, whether between individuals or countries, can be instantly dissolved into invisible and dissipated into oxygenated air.

In addition to the three disturbing whales, Drew Barrymore can be regarded as the biggest focus of the film. If it is not for her to turn the tide, it is difficult to imagine where the final fate of the three whales will go. Her unrelenting and persevering spirit affects everyone's follow and support. This unyielding spirit is worthy of praise and recognition. It is more appropriate to say that this is a miracle of whales, but it is actually a miracle of human beings. Although the CG special effects in the film do not have the air-conditioning effect of letting the actors exhale in the cold polar regions, these trivial details can be drowned in the great emotion and ignored.

    The subject matter is very thoughtful, but the handling of the film cannot be said to be very clear. In short, it is relatively regular and plain, but it can't resist the emotion brought by this story, especially the moment when the whale parents finally jumped out of the water at the end. Apart from the three whales, the grandson and grandson of the whale hunters, Adam is a thriving in the film, almost perfect.
