I watched this movie seriously at the request of my daughter, sorry that this article only starts from the story of the movie.

Let me briefly explain my understanding from the aspects of fate, resistance, system, religion, etc.:

destiny

The movie may be somewhat different from the original book. The protagonist in the movie is not a risk-taking person because he is forced to take risks because he fails in a duel. No matter the duel is forced to be obvious, this is actually a part of fate. Some things that come quietly under the circumstance, it itself is regardless of your likes and dislikes, or even good at it or not, such as Robinson, although the movie explained that he was once a soldier, but the sudden visit of the shipwreck and the huge casualties caused It was still difficult for him to accept, but fortunately he had "Tyne" as his company when he returned to the ship to find supplies.

Later, when the barbarians killed the indigenous "sinners", he also instinctively prevented him from saving FRI. Later, he was also randomly met by FRI. He also regarded FRI as an item and a slave out of instinct. There is no right or wrong in the cognition based on the environment he has seen and heard, like he saved FRI.

struggle

Fate gave you a desperate blow, but also gave you a desperate process and a hopeless tomorrow. The protagonist never gave up. The movie explained the short-term disappointment and loss, and soon regained hope, or hope for myself, I don't want to. The words that say too much chicken soup, I think this time should be understood as a last resort, the instinct to survive, plus the four years of my girlfriend, after the failure of the shipbuilding later, I had to deal with the barbarians on the full moon day. In preparation and battle more vividly;

There is a small detail in the film. At the end, he was forced to duel. When only one of them could survive, Robinson gave up the duel, even though FRI told him that he was already "dead" to his own people. The understanding is the short-term disappointment of tomorrow and the imagination of the hope that FRI may start a better life later. The short-term abandonment under the dual effect can be regarded as a struggle that relies on FRI.

system

The protagonist comes from a more civilized society, while FRI and other indigenous people come from a relatively backward primitive society. The system is an inevitable stage of human development, and an inevitable stage of productivity and cognition. Because of the relationship between the continent and the island chain, human groups have staggered the process. As a result, relatively civilized people have a "natural" advantage, and thus look down on the natives. This is difficult to jump, just like the map guns on the Internet today, but after the real communication and collision, the protagonist has completed the process of slavery and trying to get along with each other. , self-reflection, fighting side by side, comrade-in-arms, transition of friends, such a transformation can be confirmed in the roar of FRI after being hit by the suddenly landed slave owners.

religion

The religion itself has evolved into what we see now after continuous iteration and upgrading. The FRI in the film is biased towards the more primitive creature worship, and the protagonist reprimands loudly: How can we believe in crocodiles?

But when it came to Tyne, the protagonist said that it couldn't go to heaven, and that it had no soul. When FRI walked to the drawbridge and asked loudly for his "GAD" to take care of Tyne's soul, Robinson stood still. The so-called religion is not only a Teaching the precepts of doing good deeds has the effect of self-care to redeem the soul. At this moment, silence is better than sound.

destiny

The beginning is random, the return is more accidental, fate is always like this, the only thing we can control is ourselves, how to face it, Robinson who survived always thinks of FRI, not only from gratitude and trust, I I think FRI still has his redefinition of people, of course, it does not rule out that FRI around him is a minority.
