blue sea, blue sky

In the endless busyness, it is even more necessary to comprehend the clarity of life; summer has a taste, listen, see and smell, be a summer idler, and experience the beauty of details; dive into the deep blue to find strength in silence; thus, visual It is also a way of happiness.

I was at home watching "Blue Sea and Blue Sky" directed by French director Luc Besson in the early days. When Luke Besson was 10 years old, he saw a dolphin for the first time and jumped into the sea to play with it. At the age of 17, due to a diving accident, doctors told him that he could no longer go diving. At the age of 18, he began to learn to make films. In 1988, "Blue Sea and Blue Sky" won the highest applause for Luke Besson and gave it to his daughter who needed surgery.

The location was pulled to the Mediterranean coast, of course, including the southernmost island of Sicily in Italy. Sicily's crystal-clear, endless ocean, covered with the comfort of the sun, is dazzling.

Jacques and Asher are two little boys living by the sea in Italy. The male protagonist Jacques (Jean-Marc Barr), who loves the sea, is melancholy and shy, and has always wanted to be in the company of the sea. When he was young, his father was swallowed by the sea due to a diving accident. Asher is cheerful and conceited. Their common hobby is diving. Adult Jake and Asher went their separate ways.

South America, the golden grasslands, the boundless icebergs in Liaoning, Jiao Anna and Jake passed by, she looked at the man with beautiful eyes. In the ice and snow, she witnessed Jake diving, handed him a cup of hot coffee, and their pupils seemed to be able to look into each other's souls. In the evening, he knocked on her door and sent her a glass dolphin full of sea water. The blue water reflected his deep eyes. Then, she desperately wanted to be with him.

The bond of fate ties Jake and Asher together again, and a competition that challenges the limits of diving brings them back together again. Thus begins the dialogue between life and the ocean. We can't laugh at Jake's innocence. When Jake played with the dolphins, the smile on the corners of his mouth was so clear and sweet; we couldn't cast aside Asher's arrogance. When a world record was set by him, You can clearly hear the heartbeat that is obviously accelerated after being stirred by joy.

Clear blue waters, dolphins and friends. Jacques has a lot of things, though, his youthful scars are full of slender and sad fleeting years. But he still carried all his happiness on the blue sea without turning back. Melancholy is the color of the sea, and it is also reflected in Jake's soul.

I like the moment of confusion in his slender blue eyes, and the whole heart softens. Such a man should not belong to this world. The call of the dolphin is like a spell that has been lurking, he left Jiao Anna to find his own blue sea and blue sky. The sea is blue, majestic and sincere. Jake finally swims to the depths of the ocean with dolphins, and finds the fulcrum of his dream when he gives his life to the ocean.

Perhaps what this movie is trying to say is that in the world of men, there are more important beliefs than women and love.

Women give up everything to try their best to enter the dream world of men. When the male protagonist is in the dark ocean, following the trail of dolphins, diving into the unfathomable seabed and never coming back. The woman struggled to stay ashore, cherishing the tears of her life.

Someone who watched the movie came to the conclusion that men are destroying the world, women are just slowing down the rate at which men are destroying the world.

"Because, there is a dream he has been searching for all his life in the sea. In order to find it, every time he dives, it is difficult to find a reason for himself to come up."

There has never been a movie that brought me such a pure color and firm belief. shock. Full of blue, a visual feast. Tears welled up. So sincere.

That is the illusion that the eye is looking for. Peaceful and far.

In this cruel September of sunlight.

It was like being immersed in a huge blue dream, constantly diving, floating, and completely losing gravity. This is the feeling of the sea, with the infatuation that we humans yearn for, the vastness and unpredictable depth, the blue water smashes my mood, and the mysterious and fiery love cannot be controlled.

Dive, a sea that loses gravity and can extend indefinitely. In its embrace, you can only sink infinitely. In the deepest part of the ocean, there must be an unknown answer buried in it.

"We give ourselves hallucinations. Beautiful and blurred. We comfort each other. Enron and happiness."


I wrote a movie review a long time ago. This movie changed my attitude towards movies. Every late summer and early autumn, I will miss it once...
