4.5 (Towards No Time To Die Rewatch)

where are we going? return to the past

At the beginning of last year, I rewatched it once before the release of 1917 and the last episode. After more than a year, I rewatched it again, and it is still the favorite of Daniel's generation. Many classic elements have been added, but the whole is not outdated and old-fashioned, but keeps pace with the times. Sam Mendes once said that this episode was influenced by "The Dark Knight". Both of them are classic icons with the shadow of the death of their parents. It is better to look back and analyze their meaning as "symbols".

And the mutual relationship between Mrs. M and Bond in this episode is actually quite charming. Because of the past, the "anima" (Oedipal plot) produced is reflected on Mrs. M and other girls. From "Royal Nightclub", it can be seen that Bond is longing for maternal love (female partner), and this episode is about Silva and Bond They are all men who were deeply influenced by M, and also made the offensive and defensive battle against the climax in the latter part of the story poignant and sad. The killing order at the beginning, and the tears holding Mrs. M's body, both of them did not regret the decision, and the tears left by the two became a cruel price.

The action scenes are bold and brilliant. Roger Deakins stunning photography in full play. The skyfall sung by Adele is also very classic and I love it very much.
