meet the known self

FORGIVE. When the heroine used her finger to gently write the capital FORGIVE on the palm of the old man's broken eyes and ears, my body and mind were trembling. The pain of the body cannot relieve the mind, and only by forgiving yourself will you not bother to find another planet. When there is no longer a second earth in the sky at the end of the film, the heroine meets herself returning from another earth in the last picture, and everything is calm.
This movie is a mirror, everyone sees what they know about themselves.

    It's not a science fiction movie in the strict sense, but a little bit of science fiction concept is borrowed, and it is more about describing people's psychology. But it's really amazing. The lens, colors, and music are all wonderful. The beauty of the heroine itself does not have much characteristics. It is a standard beauty, but she was performed very well by the director. In one scene, she sat in front of the window, meditating in the lightly floating dust, which was truly shocking and desperate. beautiful.

Another Earth quotes

  • Richard Berendzen: It would be very hard to think "I am over there" and "Can I go meet me?" and "Is that me better than this me?" "Can I learn from the other me?" "Has the other me made the same mistakes I've made?" Or, "Can I sit down and have a conversation with me?" Wouldn't that be an interesting thing? The truth is, we do that all day long every day. People don't admit it and they don't think about it too much, but they do. Every day, they're talking in their own head. "What's he doing?" "Why'd he do that?" "What did she think?" "Did I say the right thing?" In this case, there's another you out there.

  • Rhoda Williams: If you met yourself, what would you say?

    John Burroughs: Hey, you up for a video game? Probably beat me. What would you say?

    Rhoda Williams: Better luck next time.
