It must have been a few years since I heard "The Horse Whisperer". The first impression it gave me was an animal film. Perhaps, like many animal films, it promoted the harmonious coexistence of "man and nature", the spirituality of a certain animal, and the sharing of wind and rain with humans. , share the "universal value" of sunshine. The 3-hour "Horse Whisperer" revolves around a jujube red horse "Pilgrim", telling a "healing" story not only related to horses.
In this spring night intoxicated, if you are nestled on the sofa, curled up in the bed, still thinking about the unsatisfactory work during the day, or staring at the mobile phone to read an unknown "travel", you may as well slow down your mood , slow down, open this "Horse Whisperer", it is like going to an unknown valley, quietly and undemanding to appreciate and discover, and gradually you will realize that "life is like a journey. What you care about is the destination, the scenery along the way and the mood to see the scenery."
Grace and her friend were in a car accident on a horseback ride. After this life and death catastrophe left a serious psychological shadow. The pilgrims refuse any human approach, and Grace also has a strong sense of inferiority due to the amputation, and sinks into deep self-blame for the sudden death of her friend. In order to save her daughter and heal the "crazy horse", mother Annie took her horse and embarked on a journey to the western ranch of "Horse Whisperer".
I make no secret of my love for this "western film". Its tones are bright, warm, smooth, rough and delicate, and warm with a touch of sadness. Throughout the film are the grasslands, canyons, rivers, cattle, and unpredictable scenery in the west, which makes people feel like they are in "Shangri-La". Whisperer" Tom's Ranch Life.
While Tom healed the "Pilgrim" mental illness, he also gradually strengthened Grace's courage to overcome her inferiority and cowardice. All actions are like spring breeze and rain, like a loving father's encouragement and care, finally let the "pilgrim" accept people again, and what is even more gratifying is that Grace has returned to the "pilgrim" back and found the meaning of life.
At the same time, Anna fell in love with each other in the day and night with the "Horse Whisperer" and wanted to stay. If the story came to this point and Anna left her husband and daughter to settle down with Tom, the story would appear to be much vulgar, but fortunately not, this is the cleverness of the director. Anna is gone, will the Horse Whisperer still have such a "romantic encounter"?
I once read a story called "The Goose Cage Scholar", which tells a very strange thing: "During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there was a man named Xu Yan, who was walking in the mountains, and met a scholar who said that his feet hurt and asked him to open the goose cage he was carrying. , to get in to save some leg effort. The man didn't seem crowded in the goose cage at all, and he was at peace with the goose. Under a tree, the scholar said that in order to thank Xu Yan for spit out delicious delicacies from his mouth to drink with him, and spit out a woman Sit together. The scholar is drunk, the woman vomits a man. The woman lies down, the man vomits again, and the woman drinks together. The scholar wants to feel sleepy and the woman spit out the brocade tent to cover the scholar and sleeps together. The scholar who spit it out gave Yan with a bronze plate." The characters in the story are like Russian nesting dolls. They were originally one person. They were taken out one by one and became a bunch of people; Whether it is a metaphor for the complexity of human nature and the unpredictability of the human heart. You can't guess whether the person in front of you is the person in your heart, because it changes all the time, and even becomes unrecognizable one day. According to the theory of "goose-cage scholar", the love of "grass confidant" that "Horse Whisperer" laboriously created seems a bit out of place, so what?
However, for a paranoid like me, I still believe that the world is not that complicated. Such as "The Horse Whisperer", use actions to care for and encourage people around you, like the sunshine in Montana, which is pure and natural, pouring down on the earth.
