- "Seven Pounds"
Seven Pounds, I searched many places and thought about it for a long time, wondering what the meaning of pound is in it, or I got into the alley again, and kept trying to know something unforeseen in this heavy atmosphere. However, I just finished watching this movie, dropped a few golden beans, and didn't want to sleep at midnight, so I had to finish writing this little thing.
Seven pounds is a literal translation by Seven Pounds (its English), and the Taiwanese translation is Seven Lives Lucky. Because of BEN's mistake, he was involved in a car accident, resulting in the loss of seven lives. Including his favorite wife. After seven lives left, his world lost its luster. With a heavy burden, he lived alone in a lonely world. He took his luggage and lived in a small guest house. The owner of the hostel asked him how long you were going to stay. BEN replied, I am ready to die here.
He's going to start saving himself, the miserable souls of his mistakes, and his own.
So -
he gave his kidneys to a hockey coach; he gave his marrow to a little black kid; he gave his house to a woman abused by her boyfriend; he gave his lungs to his biological brother; he gave his eyes to a piano player the pork salesman; in the end, he gave his heart to the woman who gave him renewed hope in life.
Finally - he died, and he called the police himself.
Yes, he killed seven people, and then he saved seven people with his own life. He redeemed the whole world, not including himself. With pain, he began to worry about another woman. His concern was broken again in the desire for the soul.
However, it is also said that the weight of the human soul is seven pounds. Everyone has their own soul, he is teaching you to be kind, to teach you to branch out, to teach you to spread joy. vice versa. No one is God, but anyone can be an angel. By replacing the suppression of death and the redemption of life with the release of the soul, he completed the transcendence of the entire world and lost his body, including his eyes and heart. But, I think, he is not dead, he is still in the hearts of those who love him in this world.
However, it is also said that the debts owed by Venetian merchants will be repaid with a pound of flesh. Seven lives owed, seven pounds. The heavy debt weighed on him, and when he closed his eyes, he saw the sharp engine of the car, the silent cry, and the swirling sky. He repaid little by little, with the flesh of his body, until he was seven pounds. The last heart, to the last woman in love, and tell her if we have children. This seems to be said to the wife, if we have children.
Regardless of whether the redemption is life, soul, or sin. The most successful thing is that he redeemed himself.
