Blood Sea - Oasis

Sidney 2022-04-19 09:01:22

The pouring rain washed the blood-stained city, and the eyes of hope watched the people who gave them hope but threw their hope into the air, and they just stood there, hoping that the heavy rain would wash away the despair The soul of a conscience, an individual with a conscience, shed tears for helplessness, the authorities' well-intentioned lies, adding an excuse for cowardice...

The rain, quietly falling, the children's tender singing, ethereal beauty, tears Out of his eyes, the last emotional bottom line left to him suddenly collapsed.

This is a spiritual redemption brought out by "Hotel Rwanda". Perhaps, people with rich emotions are easily captured by those distant emotions; perhaps, the good and evil of human nature will become a criterion for measuring one's self; , will eventually throw us into the situation of being independent and facing despair; perhaps, the occurrence of misfortune is the best baptism for us to see ourselves clearly; perhaps, only when despair strikes, we will perceive the fire of hope. Timeless beauty.

Rwanda, a city that suffered catastrophe and was stained with blood, civil wars, riots, massacres, the film followed the camera and took us into this city that we have forgotten, and we can't even see the truth at all. what's happening.

Hotel Rwanda, an oasis of hope in a ruined city.

War often shows the ugliness of human nature most truly, and the truth and goodness facing it are more and more valuable.

The story starts from the Rwanda Hotel, which allows us to meet our protagonist Paul, a "dark-skinned businessman" who relies too much on Western society. However, before the outbreak of the civil war, in his eyes, only high-quality whisky, cigars, wealth, everything to him He believes that the value system recognized by the Western world is a symbol of his status and dignity. However, the catastrophe does not change for personal consciousness. When the civil war intensifies, the trusted Western forces flee, the national crisis, the racial crisis, the neighborhood crisis When the crisis gradually turned into a crisis involving his own family, Paul made his due choice, or an instinctive choice, and this is the beauty of human nature that the film will try to show us.

The beauty of human nature, how to interpret such a topic, everyone has their own independent values ​​and worldview. In real life, people who are attacked by material desires basically have no time to pay attention to their own values ​​and worldviews. The great demand for desires has become the ultimate goal of people living in a peaceful country. Not to mention human nature.

How to understand the beauty of human nature, we might as well find some answers for us from Paul in the movie. It cannot be denied that the success of the movie depends largely on Paul's personal characterization. So which side of human nature does Paul show us? The country fell into madness, the world turned a blind eye, the genocide brought Rwanda down, people had nowhere to hide in their panic, the Rwanda Hotel became their oasis of hope, because Paul was there with open arms, however, Paul's generosity, but also because of his family's deep In a crisis, in addition to instinctive love and protection, he uses all his abilities and material resources to help more people in need, give more people hope of living, and calmly face the sudden catastrophe, many people will be lost, Giving up betrayal and even fleeing, however, in the face of repeated dangers, Paul tried his best to rescue those who didn't need him to do so, and put himself in dangerous situations again and again. Why? I think the beauty of human nature should be more appropriate to describe.

The beauty of human nature, which is too vaguely defined, however, contains many things that we cannot explain and define. Only in specific events, they are displayed one by one, just as the madness of Rwanda City allows us to see a person's personality phantom.

In fact, the description of the beauty of human nature in the film is not limited to Paul alone. In the face of the catastrophe, the reporters who went forward bravely, and the Red Cross doctors who came forward are all using their own methods to rescue people in deep distress. When these individuals with glittering soul charms jump into view, people who are in a safe place should feel ashamed.

The beauty of human nature, until the end of the text, cannot be described with a detailed and accurate definition. Aside from the ugly and sinful side of human nature, the kind side of human nature is what we should appreciate and feel, and the story should not be forgotten by us at the end. , but continues to allow us to see and interpret ourselves better.
