I just watched it, and I haven't thought about how to talk about the film itself and whether I believe in "self-selection", but now the most elicited feeling is about fear.
I think that no one is not without the feeling of fear, even the most open-minded and daring people, the difference is the way they deal with it, or they cover their heads in the quilt and tremble to vent, or use other memories to transfer and communicate with each other. Forget about it, or get caught up in it and become mentally ill. I think the fear comes from the stimulation of the senses, and initially think that this stimulation comes from the dependence on the eyes, and also involves safety and memory.
As the saying goes, seeing is believing. However, there always seems to be something that you can't see or maybe saw but can't remember anyway. When you realize that you can't rely on your own eyes to comfort a certain nerve that has been provoked, then the inexplicable, tense uneasiness has a power beyond personal understanding, and this power brings you fear. The so-called ghost is an interpretation of death by the living, but the dead have no memory or cannot be shared by the living. Power in turn brings fear. Fear of death is not cowardice, but comes from the attachment to life, because one cannot understand the state of being unable to see or remember in one's lifetime. The will is committed to completion, but we are not reconciled to the end of life, so death transcends personal will, only reason gives us the power to explore, the so-called cogito think therefore I am, or here.
