I didn't expect that I actually saw the sixth season with a bump.
The tones in this film are basically black, a lot of killing, a lot of blood, such as countless times with a knife to swipe the palm of the hand to prove that it is the blood of the night, as well as extracting the bone marrow, opening the body and finding someone to press her heart, etc.
I don't know if people will become dark after watching this drama.
This is the first sci-fi American drama that I have watched for so many seasons. I have followed light-hearted comedies such as "Friends", "Broken Sisters", "The Big Bang Theory", or I have adapted to the rhythm of domestic dramas. Get used to them explaining everything to me. So I had to stop in the middle of watching the film several times, take a break, and digest it. Not only did I go back and read the lines several times to understand what they were talking about, but it was also to digest some incomprehensible emotions and feelings in my heart.
All I can say is that I watched the right drama at the right time. It is necessary to understand that life is not always peaceful. In the face of survival, how will people treat others, including how to treat themselves.
In this season, the seventh episode is my favorite. It describes how the consciousnesses of Clark and Josephine are fighting in Clark's brain. Both Clark and Josephine have seen the deepest and most secret thing in each other's heart: the invisible Dark side and deepest desire. This similar retrospection also includes Octavia's choice between the red box and the green box - she chose the red box voluntarily and came to the arena set up when she was the blood queen, she woke up in the bloody water on the ground, Seeing Pike, who had been stabbed to death by him, and herself, who had blood on her face, the scene of Lincoln dying flashed back in her mind. She stabbed the Blood Queen with a knife - her former self - the self at that moment, and she was also facing the mistakes she had made - at least for now, Octavia thought she was wrong. Including the last few episodes, the believers in the sanctuary know the truth, but they still choose to believe in primes. Octavia's explanation is that it is the same as when she burned down the farm. People need faith to survive. If there is no faith, everything will collapse, so The people of the sanctuary would rather choose to deceive themselves in order to keep their ego intact and not let it collapse! !
The bravery of Clark and Octavia is to face their own dark side, as well as their guilt and self-blame. Just like now, I accept my dark side very calmly, and I no longer believe that human nature is inherently good. From time to time, there will be some malice in my heart. I also hoped that others would not be as good as me. I can see that people are facing crises. The situation will save itself first, which is normal.
dark side
At first, I hated Murphy very much, and then there was Emery, two people like two shadowy mice, always trying to sneak up on their own interests, regardless of other people's lives and safety.
Later, with the further progress of the plot, I have a lot of understanding of them. People's survival instinct will always protect themselves, and the unpopularity of the two of them before (for reasons of personality and discrimination) also caused them to want more. Protect yourself to survive.
Guilt and self-blame
This thing is a weapon for killing people - but it is not to kill outsiders but to kill themselves. How many people are constantly attacking themselves because of guilt and self-blame, resulting in their own energy exhaustion and death (including spiritual death and physical death).
Speaking of the anti-human Clark, many comments said she was a bitch, she was always upright, always said to protect her own people, this season, through the awareness dialogue between Josephine and Clark, she also has a lot of things before. To sum up, she is very good, strong, and a good leader, but no one will make mistakes, and many things cannot be judged by right or wrong, there is always a choice, and someone has to sacrifice. From the first season to the sixth season, Clark has been criticized all the time. Her own inner self-blame, guilt and pain are more than others, and she takes more responsibility, but every time she does not complain or sensational, just calmly Do what you should do. This season, when she pushed her mother Abby's body away with her own hands, she finally burst into tears, which reminded me of the plot of Monty "killing" her mother in previous seasons. What they kill are the body and the body. In fact, the person in the core has long since died, but perhaps it is this rotten and vulgar body that seems to arouse some kind of complicated feelings in our hearts too much.
Everyone is made up of all their past experiences, and often the ones that affect them the most and remember the most are the painful things, like in previous seasons Raven tried to avoid physical (lame) and spiritual (Fin's death). Pain, and swallowing the chip, she forgot all the pain, but there is no joy without pain. At the same time, you have also lost free will, and you are no longer a "person" in the true sense, but become a "machine" that is exactly the same, or an "object", a book, a cup, a A computer, everything is certain and completely safe, what's the point of such a "life"?
In the tenth episode, when Marcus, who borrowed the host's body to come alive, looked at the unfamiliar body, the scars on his body were gone, and he finally chose to give up this body and his own life. The part where Abby and Marcus said goodbye made me cry. One is for Marcus' choice, and the other is for Abby's pain of losing her lover. Abby cried and said she didn't want Marcus to leave. Marcus said; I believe that you can live a good life by yourself (the effect, the original words can't be remembered) I believe that the body and the mind (consciousness) are linked, and everyone is unique, whether it is experience, physical Or thinking, when only consciousness is left, is it really necessary to exist?
Would it really make sense if I had the chance to live forever, or to bring a dead relative back to life? Does life have meaning when there is no death?
By the way, my favorite Bellamy's has become fat, frustrated and greasy this season, and I hope to become a handsome guy next season.
