Comment on "King Kong": Because of Love

In the end, King Kong was dying before falling from a New York skyscraper. The fighter jets circled in the air, and the beautiful Ann looked at this King Kong who was fighting for himself and for love, with infinite sadness. King Kong gave his life to love and his eternity to us.

Indeed, "King Kong" is a perfect masterpiece, a science fiction masterpiece, without losing humanistic connotation. Peter Jackson didn't disappoint after his "Lord of the Rings" peak.

This is a movie about love. If there is no love, this is at best a technical science fiction article without connotation, but because of love, let us remember King Kong, let us remember the hero Jack. The love of the two "people" is not the same. King Kong's love is full of masculine power, a kind of protection, a kind of fighting, a kind of fearlessness, it is primitive and powerful, it even has the characteristics of destruction. This kind of love allows King Kong to defeat three dinosaurs; let King Kong attack Melian's peers - not letting Ann leave him; let King Kong abandon the island and be taken to Broadway in New York; let King Kong climb a skyscraper and face human civilization machine - a fighter jet.

And Jack's love is also fearless, but it is different. It is soft and subtle, gentle and full of tenderness. It is a kind of love in a civilized society. It sees tenderness in life and truth in suffering. Because of his love for Ann, Jack did not hesitate to rush into the island full of monsters; he did not hesitate to abandon his teammates and rushed into the deepest part of the island; he did not hesitate to approach the dangerous King Kong; he did not hesitate to lead the mad King Kong to meet Ann.

Different ways, but at the same time show the true meaning of love: selfless, pure, without any impurities, let us move. Because of love, we like King Kong and Jack; because of love, we hate audiences, journalists, and hypocritical film merchants who ignore love, and hate industrial civilization and consumer civilization that invade natural feelings. They killed King Kong and killed them. Raw love, pure love, selfless love, fearless love, fighting love.

It is a pity that in today's industrial civilization society, this kind of selfless and pure love is slowly fading away, and it is slowly becoming a lost memory. When "King Kong", in its unique way, suddenly puts the original love in front of our eyes and awakens the long-held memory in our brains, we suddenly realize that the original "love" is so close to us, but we have long lost it. .
