Every time I watch a movie I wonder what choices would I make if I lived in the era/world of the movie? (Of course, I won't bring it into this way because it's too ridiculous.) But I think the world of les miserables makes me very puzzled, and I even keep asking God with the people in the movie: How is this kind of life going to continue? It wasn't until the second half of the movie that I learned that the world is truly inextricable, and only people's souls need to be rescued.
The priest gave Uncle Ran silverware, which brought a turning point for his soul. Although Uncle Ran brutally drove Hathaway away, he promised to love her daughter before Hathaway died, and he also saved her helpless and desperate soul. So either as a reincarnation, as a reward, or just as a soul's interdependence - when Uncle Ran completed his mission and was about to leave the world, it was the hathaway who took him away. Passing by the priest who saved him in the first place, standing in heaven with all the people who have passed away, looking at the world that he once loved and paid for.
The background of the movie is undoubtedly the most terrifying chaotic world, but Uncle Ran, who was running for his life, undoubtedly gave Cocette the most perfect love, and took care of her delicately and beautifully, which is probably not what most parents in this era can do. But it was also his love for her that saved his own soul and the lives of a pair of young men...
The most thrilling scene in the movie is that Russell walked on the edge of the high wall several times, as if it was his inner struggle with danger. Uncle Ran tried to pass on the love that the priest gave him and save the soul of the policeman played by Russell, but the policeman did not let his body be redeemed. When he found that his soul could not coexist with the rules he was accustomed to and adhered to in the physical world, he was stubborn and chose to leave...
One of the scenes that touched me the most in the movie was a girl who had a crush on a freckled man (well I I don't quite understand the name stuff). She can't get him, but she really protects him with her life. A girl who has not been loved, a girl who grew up in such a perverted family, has never lost her soul. It's good. The post-90s aria of her singing the pain of unrequited love in the rain broke my heart.
My favorite in the movie is the revolutionary man. In fact, I am very familiar with the word revolution when I grew up in such excess, but I am really sorry that after 22 years of revolutionary education, I still don't know what those guys who make revolution are doing. But today I got it. Well, it's not because the parents are more handsome (huh, isn't it? -___-), but the foreshadowing of the future. For this unsolved world, young powers really need to burn their own lives to seek change. But a revolution that originated in the civilian population is different from a war that can be carefully planned—it can’t count the consequences, it may have no direction, and the road can only be paved with blood—perhaps that’s why the red flag is always flying where there is a revolution. Although it is said that the description of the original book is more gorgeous, but for me, who doesn't like watching abuse films, having such a bright and fearless character is really a bright light in the dark.
The original is great because it represents the era so beautifully and brutally.
Actually, no one dies. Our bodies may be gone, but our hearts and souls are still watching this land with all the zeal and love. So since there is such a powerful wish, what can't be realized?
The world is illusory, and what needs to be saved is only the human soul.
