editor of this movie review
When a person can know his own life, he already has the beginning of life, but he does not know the end. The boy in the mob also has life, and in the environment where he grew up, in the desolate slums of Africa, he could not find the destination of life - the mission of life. He is passive, a soul wandering around a place full of hunger, plague, and decadence, only to survive the laws of its environment. They can't create, or they have been deprived of the right to create from birth, so they use their growing years to plunder, and they are used to plundering, neatly and without leaving room. Passive looting. Murder and rob for their debts with no fate, survival is the only theme they care about. This is their game rule. Their laws of survival will be challenged as well as the laws of our so-called harmonious society. Boston is driven by its own inner pursuit of a decent life to challenge the boy's standard of living, and the story starts the first wave. The sudden shock will never be accepted, just like capitalism with its ostentatious ostentation. When entering China, Emperor Kangxi insisted that his society was the kingdom of heaven. He hit Boston, and he naturally maintained his code of conduct when he met a woman driving a BMW that night. The accident was that there was a child who had not yet been weaned in the BMW he grabbed. What kind of shock did the appearance of the child arouse in his heart? He actually chose the child and gave up the car he had given his life to grab. From this moment on he changed his life, did he change? Or return? What is his true nature? Bringing the child home, feeding nervously, and leaving friends who live together for the sake of the child, all this went on smoothly, and there seemed to be no turbulence. In this play, there was nothing deliberate. His jigsaw puzzles appeared in the newspapers, and he blackmailed a widow at gunpoint to breastfeed the baby, a bizarre move. When all this happens to the widow, she carries both resentment and pity, in her eyes he is a special one. So, she submit to him. However, the expression in her eyes tells us that she knows something is behind the guy. She made a request to raise a child, which is amazing for someone in financial difficulty, why is she doing this? Not love for him, but sympathy? Sympathy for the child or the thug in front of you? The brief dialogue seemed to suggest a fight. He found Boston, who was seriously injured by him, and was determined to help him complete his ideal of studying. Finally, he and his companions came to the baby's parents' home again for money. He asked for money, but he didn't ask for his life! The sudden situation caused him to shoot and kill his comrade, and thus lose his last friend, but his decision had no turning back. The woman who helped raise the child knew the reason and asked him to return the child. He showed him the home where he used to wander, several concrete pipes. Now, the place has not changed. His heirs have gone to the same place. He followed the same path, but the 10-year-old did not guard his territory with a knife, as if a few empty concrete pipes were always under threat of being robbed, and there was nothing else to rely on. He's gone, it's time to return the child, he lost it, but he gained back the respect of a woman. He was so reluctant to stand in front of the house holding the child, what happened in his heart? Is it the meaning of dependence or survival? This is a movie worth thinking about. Can I explain it with the butterfly effect? But I can't understand this series of questions.
Tsotsi is a young man who lives only in the present. He never talks about the past and has no illusions about the future. Maybe the baby is just an incentive, and it is Miriam and the unknown disabled old beggar who really make him feel the joy and beauty of life. Miriam let him see wonderful flashes and hear sweet sounds from his homemade glass wind chimes; the old beggar who humiliated his life like a dog told Tatis that when he was in the sun, he could feel the light coming from the sun All these are the reasons for them to live strong in the endless poverty and misery. It was as if Tsotsi, who had been groping in the dark for a long time, finally saw a light from the end of the tunnel in them. He personally killed his evil accomplice Bucher, and returned the baby that did not belong to him to his biological parents. However, the film is not just a story of self-redemption, there are also themes of growing up in it. In the bar, when Boston kept asking him about his past, he became angry and beat Boston. Escaped from the bar, he ran in the rainstorm and suddenly turned into a lonely little boy. People around him also regarded him as a brutal boy. When he walked with his accomplices in the poor alleys, they laughed at him for not being able to learn to drive, and he could only protest with his middle finger. Driving in this film is obviously a symbol of a coming-of-age ceremony, so when he crouched under a tree to hide from the rain and saw a woman get out of the cab, he felt indignant and rushed forward to hijack the car. The nervous and excited look on his face as he drives shows how desperately he wants to grow up. He comes from a family that lacks warmth. His mother is AIDS and cannot be approached. His father is alcoholic and cruel and lacks affection. Therefore, he ran away from home since he was a child. He clumsily changed the baby's newspaper diapers, named the baby after his own name, and repeatedly insisted to Miriam that the baby was his, all implying that he was trying to fulfill the responsibility of maintaining the family and raising the offspring in the name of the father. . He ventured into the baby's house just to bring baby items to Miriam's house and create a warm family atmosphere. Later, he gradually realized that he could not replace the parents of the baby, and that he could only achieve it when he grew up and changed his mind by himself. He mustered up the courage to ask Miriam. At this moment, he finally took a solid step towards truly growing up. Finally, the camera stops at Tsotsi's raised hands, tears welling up in his eyes at that moment.
