I don't know much about film knowledge, but I still know that montage, especially parallel montage, is a common method of film. The novelty of the cloud map is that the degree of parallelism has been increased to six.
So it's not hard to understand. Not to mention the superfluous left a comet birthmark.


Or sort it out.

The first story, no, is the first revolution. In 1850, the right to survive
was cut off by the radio and television. The purpose of this trip was to buy black slaves. The mysterious atmosphere at the beginning was a little confusing, maybe it was expected. But it became clear as the plot progressed. The unbalanced development of civilization made white people see the benefits of enslaving black people. The strong survival instinct makes the smart and strong black people turn to the white Ewing who seems to have a conscience, and win the freedom of life, while the white Ewing is the big fish who holds the wealth to dominate the fate, but it is the gold coins that arouse the greed of the doctor. , devised a trap to turn him into a small fish to be slaughtered, and in turn was rescued by black people. He was infected by real experiences, and his feelings were sublimated from Darwin's cold theory. Aware of the sins of the slave trade, he turned to the movement for the liberation of black slaves.
This left "Ewing's Voyage Diary" read by the gay composer Ferrobisher.
History has the Compromise of 1850. Generic term for the five bills passed by the U.S. Congress on slavery in September 1850. Contradiction is intensifying day by day, and balance is more difficult to maintain.


The second revolution in 1931. A
deep and sincere same-sex love VS a master of deceit.
This part is my favorite. Unable to turn affectionate. Later, I saw that the 40-minute version was cut on the Internet, mainly because of the emotional scenes and nudity scenes between the two handsome guys. But I think the actor's acting skills are really good, and his eyes can already express deep love. Both are very beautiful people, handsome, kind and talented. But not accepted by the world. The world loves fake names. In their beautiful dream, they broke the symbolic antique frame together, and the harmony and beauty were like conducting a symphony, hearty and incisive. At the end of the kickback, Ferrobisher greedily peeked at his lover, fought to his death calmly and resolutely, and cried until my tears burst. The last hug turned the perspective of God, and it seemed that the bodies of the two seemed to form a gossip diagram.

The great Turing in history was admitted to Cambridge in 1931. He was chemically castrated because of his sexual orientation and committed suicide by biting a poisonous apple.
This one left "Cloud Atlas Sextet" and love letters, which were read and heard by Louisa.


The third revolution in 1973, the
beloved same-sex lover of the right to know, has gone with the wind. Gradually, it has come to the contradiction between the benefit of new energy to the public and the vested interests of old energy. Energy has always been the economic lifeline of modern society. Whoever controls the energy controls the world. There must be sacrifices at the cusp of the storm. Just like Edison suppressed Tesla, the oil consortium, driven by huge interests, must try its best to stifle the scientific and technological information of nuclear energy. The scientist was killed, and the black female reporter Louisa and Another scientific experimenter risks his life to uncover the truth.
During this period, slavery had been abolished, and the social status of blacks had been significantly improved. Echoes the results of the first revolution. However, the film also shows cheap smuggling of Chinese workers, which is voluntary to a certain extent, which shows that the problem of modern slavery is more complicated.
Personally, the more interesting setting is that the final success or failure depends on the innocent and tragic death of the puppy. The seemingly clumsy female worker shouted: I! LOVE! THAT! DOG! Shoot the wicked man with the gun to death. In fact, recently, I have always felt that discussing animals from an ethical point of view tends to lead to a dead end, because the starting point is personal feelings and very individual. Personally, I think it's better not to abuse.
This paragraph leaves a novel draft describing the truth here.

In 1973, the famous American sociologist Daniel Bell put forward the concept of post-industrialization. He analyzes five characteristics of post-industrial society, all of which have been tested in advanced capitalist countries. He believes that the first and simplest characteristic of a post-industrial society is that the majority of the workforce is no longer in agriculture or manufacturing, but in services. The sign of the economy is from the commodity production economy to the service economy; the sign of the position is the priority of the professional and technical stage; in the aspect of decision-making, it is the creation of new "knowledge technology". (This paragraph is quoted from a think tank) The


fourth revolution flew over the nursing home in 2012
I also like this part. In the part where I fell to the death of the critic, I, like the actor in the camera, opened my mouth and looked stupid. At most, I thought it was "full of old fists", but I didn't expect that I would simply throw a fleshy pie out, and I didn't even bother to smash the roof of the car. Then he stepped back through the frozen room, smeared salt on the back of his hand, slammed down a glass of agave, and sucked on a lemon. Very Quentin's violent aesthetics. Today's world has entered the information age, and the media are controlling emotions and life decisions. The artificiality of people's lives. In the film, Cavendish has a full of classic lines, I can't remember it, but the gist is: these critics rarely read carefully, they are self-righteous, and they are never willing to use their brains. People have been greatly liberated in their minds, and gradually they find that there is nothing new on the earth, and it is difficult to find a suitable position for a while. Gradually become dry, the favorite is not the truth, but the legend, the reason gradually gets the upper hand by the emotion, so it is easy to be incited. Books that started out unnoticed are sold out as the violence unfolds. It seems that the mentally retarded old man can cleverly use nationalism to borrow the anger of fans who have nowhere to vent their anger at the loss of the game to get out of the predicament.
This episode left behind "The Ordeal of Cavendish", which was made into a movie and enlightened Sungmi in New Seoul in 2044.

In 2012 in history, there are actually many philosophical and intellectual movies that look very NB.


The Fifth Revolution 2044 The truth
of the clones is distinctly Wachowski-esque. Awaken. It is the climax of the film's reasoning, and Cavendish's film clip awakens Yoona's will to resist. Youna spread it to Xingmei 451, and Xingmei was picked by the rebels. The abnormal development of the service industry during this period represented a serious class division in society, and the labor force, which was not so equal, was once again reduced to slavery (isn’t this trend obvious at present?). Possessing a powerful and violent state machine, using the identity of clones to avoid moral issues, using religion to paralyze the spirit, and exploiting with peace of mind, exploiting to the bone marrow (every time I see this type of situation, I always think of OOD, the lowest slavery The race is the most intelligent creature in the universe. Think of the cow who slaps the butt and sells its own meat.) The paradise that the clones yearn for loyally is an out-and-out hell. A merciful God is the devil. Everything is a lie, everything is an illusion. The dwellings in the film are all custom-made themes, and even the food is 3D printed. This time, people are no longer the brains in the vat, they have become accustomed to the illusion, the body is nourished by the body, and the left and right are only some protein ingredients.
There is a question and answer in the film about why the rebels do it knowing they will fail. The answer is that a drop of water is also a kind of power. I just remember when my heart sank! This isn't Grandpa Mao's spark, it can start a prairie fire.
It was later learned that 14 stars played 65 roles in the film. As a senior face-blind, I only saw two of the roles played by Zhou Xun in the whole film, just because I was too familiar with her cute double chin, I didn't know the selling point of one person playing multiple roles in advance, and I couldn't appreciate it. And to be honest, not very interested. The purebred faces of Seoul in 2044 look uncomfortable. Bae Doo Na who plays Sung Mi is beautiful, but she doesn't act like a clone, she looks like a robot.
Here is the statement of Xingmei who sacrificed her life for righteousness: "Our lives do not belong to us, but are closely connected with others, past and present, through every evil deed and every good deed, we conceive our own future. " Xingmei was worshipped by later generations.


The post-apocalyptic era of the sixth revolution
may have slipped, and the details are not very clear. The main point is still clear. In the post-apocalyptic era, nuclear power, which once benefited mankind, almost destroyed mankind. Nature has the upper hand again, the society is reincarnated and primitive, and after several revolutions, all the sins still exist, and the tribes under the law of the jungle follow the worship of Xingmei. But Xingmei failed to bless them, and was still violently plundered and destroyed. The beautiful girl died tragically with blood dripping from the inner thighs. The last hope was to escape from the earth and go to the alien paradise. There is only love and innocence in that world. But I think Halle Berry looks pretty good.



The cloud map is beautiful, and the ambition recites equality and freedom in a Canon-like rhythm, but the six independent stories are all standard Hollywood stories in structure, full of positive energy. That is, good and evil are always clear, the situation is always critical, someone will definitely take action at the critical moment, justice will triumph over evil, and a happy ending is certain. Compared with recent films, it is not as profound as Ang Lee, and not as delicate as Wong Kar Wai. It is still a film product with a strong industrial flavor.
But perhaps this is also a means of ideological promotion. After all, in the information age, people have seen it before, and they are not satisfied with the straightforward description, and they are impatient. Then come and play a lamp fan. After the lamp fan has guessed, my heart, you will understand a little bit.



Attached is a small gossip. The Matrix was filmed by the Wachowski brothers. Why did Miss Wachowski come out of the sky this time? It turned out that it was Brother Wachowski who had sex reassignment surgery. No laughing! Freedom, fraternity, equality!
