dream with your hands

Lay railroad tracks in big mountains, make ice blocks in tropical rainforests, sail boats on land, and finally build big theaters in the depths of rainforests. After reading the introduction for the first time, I always imagined how bloody and unrestrained the shots of the film should be. But the climax of the film is not the imposing composition and soundtrack of the traditional inspirational film. After watching it, I wondered why the rhythm of the shot is so slow.
After repeated chewing, I was finally convinced by this signature Germanic rationality. Herzog used such a slow rhythm to tell that every dream is not achieved overnight, and must put in persistent efforts and struggles. Even if you are a genius or a lunatic, you must start with small things. The process will be very slow, filled with countless unimaginable suffering, every brain cell must be fully functioning, every nerve will be under pressure, and you will die before it is even done.
What does it mean to be brave and bold? It is true that high talents can be bold. More people do not have the courage to pursue their dreams because they have not put in practice and effort, and they have not been cruel to hone their abilities. I think the real courage is to do every little thing at hand, and make a great project out of countless of these little things. One has to be able to dream, but with both hands.
What Fitzcarado pursues is not incomprehensible, he loves opera, he loves art, he loves life, art transcends racial, cultural barriers and class restrictions, the protagonist hates the upstarts sitting in the opera house, he More willing to share art with children, indigenous and small animals. In order to be able to raise funds for the construction of the Rainforest Opera House on his own, he embarked on a vigorous overland cruise.
I recommend everyone to watch another tidbit about this film, "Burnen of dreams" (Chinese translation of "Movie Dreams"). Director Herzober used his own shooting process to stage another thrilling land cruise, which lasted four years of filming. The first filming escaped death, and the entire crew was almost killed by the natives; the second filming after regrouping, when the completion rate was about 40% due to the serious illness of the protagonist, it was stranded again; the third filming started all over again, and finally overcame all kinds of difficult resemblance. After the difficulties, their boat successfully crossed the hillside, and we can finally appreciate the heroism of boating on land on the screen.
Finally, I quote the classic lines in the film to end: "that everyday's life is only an illusion behind which lies the reality of dreams".
Everyday life is just an illusion, and behind it is the real dream.
