The words written in the front: The plot of "The Postman" is like the revival of a dream. When the end of the day passes, the remaining people want to find spiritual solace, but they find that they have forgotten how to dream. The arrival of Shakespeare gave them a dream. The reason, in fact, is clear to everyone, there is no "US government", "US Postal Service", some are just a dream that is unwilling to wake up, and some people who have made the dream a reality.
The film starts with only one person, one gun and one mule. The later stage is entirely up to oneself. The lion at the beginning is very similar to "The Fantasy Drifting of the Young Pi". It is an overhead scene that seems to have nothing to do with the film, but reveals a dim style. At the beginning of the film, some noises are interspersed with noises, like the past life of the city, the abandoned gas station, the grocery store, and the male protagonist found an old TV and a notebook, as if he was really watching TV.
This is a post-apocalyptic America, and a post-apocalyptic world.
The male protagonist seems to be looking for something. He doesn't simply want to survive. In this dazed environment, he walks on the dazed land, but his eyes are not dazed. There is something in his heart, but we don't know it.
Because there is always a reason to live.
A Shakespeare's stage play aroused the heartstrings of children and gave people a sense of comfort in such an apocalypse. But the arrival of Hornest (the most powerful force in the film) interrupted the protagonist's plan, and the male protagonist was arrested into the training base.
"I want a purebred, just like that person." General Bethlehem said, looking at the male protagonist in the distance, maybe the general didn't realize at this time that this wandering person who only speaks the language of Shakespeare's plays, will the enemy of his life.
"The ransom is in your own hands." The general's pre-war mobilization is extremely intimidating. Changed his heart and even wanted to eat a bowl of yellow stewed chicken rice, but no one applauded him except for Man Shan's subordinates.
Soon, the male protagonist's mule was served by the chef in the organization and became everyone's dinner. The fact that the mount took the lunch box aroused the male protagonist's desire to survive, he began to calculate, and even incited the other two people who were arrested into the organization together, Da Hei and Anti-Bone Boy. Obviously, the male protagonist who did not have the charisma at this time did not The rebellion was successful, and the rebel boy, who was eager to be "Lin Xing" by the general, leaked all the male protagonist's plans.
In a later training session, a lion ran into the jungle behind the base, and the male protagonist was assigned to kill the lion. But the male protagonist escaped, and the bullet became cannon fodder and sank to the bottom. Anti-Bone Boy and Da Hei lead the chase. In order to stop the male protagonist, Anti-Bone Boy offered a blood, and the male protagonist's level +1. In order to cover the male protagonist, Da Hei wanted to kill the teammates who came to chase together, but failed, and the male protagonist escaped.
In an abandoned jeep, he found a skeleton skeleton. To keep warm, he put on the mailman's suit on the skeleton, and he accidentally found a package of expired mail.
The postman was officially launched, and the film finally entered the topic, and the male protagonist began to walk in the depths of the town.
Here, he gained the trust of the townspeople with a letter to Ariana. Under his account, an organization called the "United States Postal Service" began to spread in the town, and one did not exist. Yes, the U.S. President "Richard Stark" from Maine was fabricated, and he was forced to put a famous saying "The form is getting better, the form is getting better every day." (Famous quote? My nephew also said come out.)
At the party in the town, he met Abby, the heroine and his lifelong partner. But at this time, the heroine still has a husband, but she has no fertility. Shakespeare has become a glorious sperm father. There are some large-scale eighteen forbidden scenes in the film, and I will not describe it in detail. (See for yourself if you want to know)
The post office in the corner of the town that the male protagonist found when he was about to leave. Here, he got his first and most loyal follower, Ford Lincoln Macri, a man who saw the American dream from his name. black boy.
After a self-directed inauguration proclamation, Ford became his first postman. But the mayor seemed to dislike the male protagonist very much. He told the male protagonist that the American Dream was not needed here, and the people here just needed to live.
So the male protagonist prepares to leave, but the general's organization soon arrives in the town, and people are forced to hand over their wealth and food. But Abby was attracted by the general. The general's knife to kill her husband ignited the town's anger, but the strength of the organization made the mayor choose to submit. Shakespeare wanted to negotiate with the organization in exchange for the survival of the inhabitants, but he did not expect that the organization he encountered this time was still General Hornest of Bethlehem.
During the riot, Abby showed surprising talent for shooting, wounding the general with one shot, and in the chaos, Shakespeare grabbed a horse and took Abby away. They live in seclusion in a deep mountain, where Shakespeare wanted to live his whole life, but Abby's unforgettable hatred burns the house and forces Shakespeare down the mountain. On the way, they meet a girl who calls herself "The United States Postal Organization." Shakespeare was surprised, he knew it was impossible. So he and Abby were taken back to the postal base, where, Ford, his followers showed up to inform him of all these years. Ford has developed a lot of people and achieved the "US Postal Service" that did not exist.
He was rightfully the leader of the organization.
The Post inevitably collided with Holnest, and Shakespeare, not wanting to harm the children, disbanded the USPS under the guise of the non-existent US President, and took Abby to wander again.
When he settled down in the next town, the captain of Hornest also followed. He saw Shakespeare, and the male protagonist knew that the matter could not be escaped and he had to make a choice.
So the postal service made a comeback, and his followers gathered under the great banner of the American Dream.
Organization and organization collided.
Shakespeare and Bethlehem, scrambling on grass for the MVP spot.
"I know what your problem is, do you know why you can't fight? Because you don't know why you fight, you don't care, you don't care, you don't trust anything, and that makes me Better."
"I trust, America."
Shakespeare slammed into Bethlehem head-on, QAQ combo, grabbed the sharp edge, and disabled the general of Bethlehem.
"He's not worth it." Shakespeare took Ford's gun and began to establish his own new order.
The American dream of survival, living, freedom, and no more killing is really starting to build in the hearts of all people.
At the end of the film, Shakespeare has a daughter named "Hope".
Such a nearly 3-hour movie is obviously an American dream, but it is written so real. When General Bethlehem was shot and killed by one of his own men, I suddenly felt a sense of sadness.
Maybe he is an ambitious man, but for most of the film, he instills a kind of idea of "natural selection, survival of the fittest" in his subordinates, and even the mayor expects the general's organization to save them.
But the establishment of such an American dream might not be the shattering of another American dream.
The force was trampled under the feet of the dreamer, like a letter in the hand of a little boy at the end of the film, and was taken away by the postman on a horse and galloped into the distance.
