Young people are fearless because of ignorance, and rebellious because of fearlessness, but in the end we understand one sentence: we don’t choose life, we are chosen by life.
Christianity says that people are born with sin, which is the so-called original sin, so where does original sin come from? My understanding should be the innate desire of human beings. This understanding is similar to Xunzi's theory of sexual evil, emphasizing that people need to become civilized, restrained, and rational in society through domestication. According to this logic, if I let loose and continue to live an unrestrained life, it will definitely be evil in the eyes of the believers, and even condemned and judged. So what if I don't believe in Christ? In a so-called civilized and orderly society this is also not allowed, it is also morally weak, or it is likely to increase the risk of being punished by law.
In the film, the protagonist Mark has grown from a low-class gangster in England, a drug addict to a normal life. The repeated twists and turns in the middle, and the lost things at the price, are probably the meaning that the director wants to convey to us. Yes, one day you too will be able to "choose your life, choose your job, choose your career, choose your family, choose your damn big color TV, choose your washing machine, your car, your laser, choose your health, low cholesterol and dental insurance, choose a mortgage, Choose your friends, choose suits, casual clothes and luggage, choose installments and three-piece suits, choose to watch boring game shows and snack while watching.” But Mark said decisively at the beginning of the film: "I choose not to choose."
He said that the only worry about taking drugs is not having money. Look, this is also a simple and pure life, and you don't have to worry about any other ordinary people asking to worry. thing. But no, "the world is changing, music is changing, drugs are changing, you can't escape heroin for too long!" His brother, despicable, has to live a wandering life because of robbery, shit tyrant entered the classroom, perverted male In the drug business, Tommy, who has always been healthy and lively, gradually became an addict because of the departure of his girlfriend.
Deciding to change, Mark decided to get rid of drugs with the help of his parents and went to London to become a real estate agent. But until Tommy's tragic death, everyone else did not wake up, so Mark decided that he would use betrayal to fulfill his new life. He betrayed his so-called brother, and he took the money to win a fresh start. You can see him smiling, "But I can change, I have to reform." At the end of the film, Mark is walking forward with a bag and facing the sun. I really don't know if I should be happy for him or say yes There is really something in my heart.
"Why did I do that? There's a million answers and they're all wrong because I'm a bad ass, but that's going to change, I'm going to change, it's the last bad thing, I'm going to change my mind and move on Go, choose life, I'm already looking forward to it." Because he said that, this is a declaration of the future, yes, but he said that there is no reason, he is simply a bad boy, what is the meaning of such a change? He has just become more normal, and understands the rules of social survival better. He has transformed from a simple indulgent soul to a profit grabber, intriguing and fighting to the death in the material world for more desires.
But he was satisfied, and so was I. After all, this is the ending I hope to see, but some unwilling sighs are surging in the dark tide. As a human being, sometimes it is unavoidable to cover up and cover up, because it is unnecessary and meaningless to see through.
