Look at the big fish again

Yesterday I accidentally watched BIG FISH again. The name of the film on the pirated DVD I bought was translated as Dayu Dad. This Dad did not superfluous, this big fish is the old man, and the old man is the big fish. See the big fish poster A few pairs of shoes hung on the tree, I immediately felt the unusual breath of this movie, the magical reality of TIM BURTON, the small fiction in the big reality, and the other films have a different tone. General films, such as all kinds of The classics of film history are all made with a small real attitude in a big fiction. A fictional story. The details of the characters and scenes are striving to be perfect and true. We are deceived by the screenwriters, and the joy is moved in a completely unreal image. Among them. The difference of TIM BURTON is that he can use his imagination to the right, telling realistic stories with magical methods. I like the pitiful look in his eyes because of his directed "Edward Scissorhands". Scissorhands JONNY DEPP.
BIG FISH is a good film. The title of a film review I once read seems to be an unbearable fairy tale. What is a fairy tale? In Big Fish, the father who has told his own story all his life tells it Fairy tale? He is lying on the bed, his throat is muddy and panting, and he still tells fantasy stories. There are giants in the story. The wolf-shaped werewolf circus leader appears on the moon full night. The Cantonese-speaking twin sister who helped him return to the United States. , A mysterious paradise, a car on a tree, and of course a big fish, GIRL IN THE WATER with big fish all kinds.
If you were the son in BIG FISH, would you believe the story of your father, childhood The enthusiasm disappeared the moment you grew up. Will you start to hate the story of your father?
That son is actually the spokesperson of our generation. I think if I were that son, I would definitely never believe the stories of my father. I would like to listen to them but only as stories, the seasoning of life. I have long been used to it. An unchanging life. When you are thirsty, you can turn on pure water. When you are hungry, you will walk into the restaurant you are used to. When it comes to dressing, we always flaunt our own alternatives. In fact, capitalists want to maximize profits and all kinds of industrialized production. All kinds of, there will always be someone living the same life as you in a certain corner of the world, wearing a brand of clothes, watching the same movies, not twins. We always think that our life and our youth are unique , As a result, looking back, all the cruel past is only the collective memories of a generation.
Is there anyone who can tell such a fascinating story like Da Yu Dad, telling the legend of his life until he died.
Because there is no legend, we only There is nothing to say. When all kinds of protection measures are intact, I may go to jump and challenge myself, but this so-called "adventure" is never a risk, because the chance of danger is very small.
The official website of Big Fish There is such a sentence An adventure as big as life itself, life is full of infinite possibilities and full of charm. ADIDAS's advertising slogan this year is IMPOSSIBLE IS NOTHING. I regard this as a call to adventure. Why do I call it? It's because of the lack of adventurous spirit. Life is full of forked roads.
Maybe one day you will find the paradise-like town leading to the big fish, but the premise is that you have to risk a road with thorns. Let's talk about that. Small town, if you were Da Yu Dad, would you stay in that small town?
Maybe I will. I admit that I lack the adventurous spirit. My small peasant mind makes me only want to be rich and safe. In the end, I may only see The little town in this paradise is slowly falling into helplessness, where I am fat and hairless and grow old. The poet will never write a verse with flavor, because poetry is also an adventure in life. There is no risk and no poetry.
So start. Admiring Da Yu's father, he continued on the road and continued to move forward. A small pond cannot accommodate the big fish (A BIG FISH IN A SMALL POND).
Da Yu's father has been telling his own story. As for his son, his life has also begun to change. He embarked on an adventure to find his father's past, and the details of the story slowly emerged in front of
his son . The son is dying in Da Yu's father . When I made up the last story for my dad, the same surreal, dad saw his own "MY GIRL IN THE WATER" (At that time, Da Yu’s wife was wearing a red dress and standing in the middle of the water. ), and finally turned into a big fat fish swimming in that river of time.
When a person tells his own story too many times, he becomes a story himself, AND IN THAT WAY HE BECOMES IMMORAL.
Fairytale style The ending, do you believe this ending?
I believe it.
Thank you ROY for recommending this movie to me during the winter vacation. In fact, this movie is more suitable for boys to watch. The relationship between father and son, boys should have different perspectives and different touches.
