The first time I saw the shipwreck, I felt abrupt, there was no sign or hint. This is a bit of a hard arrangement, and it really doesn't make sense without speculative explanations. Even if you don't pay attention to all the hints and don't think about it, you will still be moved when the tiger walks into the woods. It's not that the tiger didn't say goodbye to Pi. The moment it stands and stays, it's a goodbye. Survivor Pi, talking about this, tears silently down, whether it is a real tiger or his inner tiger, it is very touching.
In the last few minutes, the plot took a sharp turn, which was thought-provoking and surprising. It turns out that this is a movie that is deeply afraid of its content. At the end of the movie, the plot has just begun, forcing you to play it again or watch it again.
In the first thirty minutes, some people thought it was rather dull, but I liked it very much, especially the discussion between Pi's mother and father. His father is obviously an enlightened newcomer in India, and he can mock his son "You don't have to go to school if you believe in a few more religions (every day). It’s all holidays)”, it’s normal to have this kind of identity anxiety and growth anxiety when you are a teenager (the author of the novel once had it), when you come into contact with religion, you believe in it, and you come into contact with many religions, so you believe in many religions, it’s better than We rammed like headless flies.
One time at the dinner table, my father said, “Son, this world is based on science and rationality. Science can explain everything and solve everything (this is so much like a motorcycle, haha~~), my mother glanced at my father and said: There is no objection, but the words continue: However, science cannot solve people's heart, inner. Religion is concerned with the human spirit, the human heart. Children seem to understand.
This is an ancient topic and the only one in the world, rationality and sensibility, philosophy and science, objective and subjective. That's what it is, the efficient, sophisticated and healthy operation of the world under the guidance of science, and the meaningful functioning of the world under the guidance of religion and philosophy. I also thought hard about this issue, so I read Russell's "Why I'm Not a Christian". In this long article, Russell smashed and crumbled to clarify his point of view. Probably, he believed in human wisdom and believed Love and tolerance and more. It seemed that he had converted to science. But later he wrote a simple article "Why Do People Live" as the preface to his autobiography, saying that he lived for three purposes and motivations: the pursuit of wisdom, the pursuit of love, and the compassion for human beings. Rational and emotional. That's Russell's belief -- and the belief I've found so far.
The 227th day in the sea of the young Pi is thrilling. Not without scientific guidance (Surviving at Sea Handbook), not without the support of religious beliefs. In the end, the combination of the two allowed him to go through difficult days and have the courage and faith to face the rest of his life - that is the biggest suffering. He was a college professor by profession, taught theology, continued his faith, continued his vegetarian diet, and had his own happy family, wife and children.
It seems to be genetically set, kittens will start to practice mouse catching at a certain age, puppies will know how to watch the house at a certain age, and people will think about life at a certain stage when they are young, thinking about where they came from and where they are going. Go, what is the meaning of life. Some people will think about their whole life, and this doubt is exciting to move forward, cherish the present, literature and beauty, and it comes from it. Some people put it down after thinking about it, and they are like walking dead, and they have lived their whole lives.
The most recent pillow book is Yang Zhishui's "Ten Years of Reading". This diary not only records all kinds of literati gossip during the Chinese Renaissance in the 1980s, but also briefly records his family life. One day, his son Xiaohang was sleeping. Suddenly she started to cry, she asked what was the matter, and her son said: I think that one day I will die of old age, and there will be no me in the world when I die of old age. very sad. So she explained that if everyone on earth didn't die, it wouldn't be enough to live. The son said, I can invent a way to go to other planets. After persuading for a while, Fang fell asleep.
Looking back, no one has ever looked up at the starry sky and felt lonely when they were young, and no one has ever panicked because everything will eventually pass away. Even in adulthood, this problem will still exist, but there is no time to worry about it. Only love is the only consolation.
