Running towards you no matter what

Disney's imagination is really too powerful. If we say that the "underworld" in "Dream Travel" is an accurate copy of "the world", in "Spiritual Journey", people will enter a huge world after death. Darkness, and then the stairs to the next life, that picture, like the universe, is extremely shocking.

"You must have left suddenly." As soon as these words came out, the nose was instantly sour. Substituting into it, it is difficult for anyone to accept the abrupt end of life. Although "life and death have fate", "my life has just begun".

When JOE breaks through the boundaries of space, it is a kind of picture expression similar to the "space-time dimension", three-dimensional, two-dimensional, multi-dimensional, instantly mixed and transformed.

The flat staff with weird lines are "quantum collection fields", and in order to help humans understand, they not only have shapes, but also abacuses. In the quantum world, should we also calculate like this, um... well, for the convenience of our understanding.

Hearing "Joy Training Camp" reminds me of "Inside Out"; Joe looks at his past life and thinks of "Interstellar". It is a feeling of escaping from the self, and an experience of being out of this world.

In "Spiritual Journey", the "mirror of ecstasy" is the junction of the spiritual world and the material world. I have also had this experience, such as when I once expressed it in public, such as in the later writing in the middle of the night, I like it very much. This kind of feeling, there is no time, no space, no self, only the content that is done, the film is presented through the picture of the blue state, which is appropriate and dreamy.

At the same time, the film also presents another side, this feeling of "isolation" can be like JOE entering into ecstasy, or like a fund manager lost his soul. Losing and forgetting oneself are the same as being unable to see yourself and everything around you.

Fortunately, just like in "Ghosts", everyone may encounter the moment when God stops and stops. At that moment, "God" will help you put your soul back into your body, so you wake up and stop being obsessed. In speculation, know to really "live".

The backgrounds of the two characters, JOE and 22, are very cleverly designed, with infinite loops. The two are opposites, one doesn't want to live, and the other wants to live too much.

"Invisible and light", looking at 22, he knew that he was like her, and he also didn't know why he was rushing to "life". It's so free, isn't it?

After JOE and 22 returned to the world, they encountered a soul exchange. Although it was an old-fashioned plot, the exchange between humans and animals was presented for the first time, and it was also very interesting.

22 When I first arrived in the human world, I felt that the world was so noisy. New York, you can't just stop. Beijing, isn't it? If you stop, it will not only stop you, but also stop others from "moving forward".

22 Through JOE's body, I can understand the various states of the world. She is more willing to communicate with others, listen to other people's stories, and at the same time share her millennium insights with others.

Just like the part of the barber, through the active conversation of 22, we can see that each person has his own story, and each person is a very unique individual. It's just that our world is too big, and our time is always too short. We don't have time to listen to other people's stories and experience other people's experiences. We just stick labels on people, for example, a haircut who often cuts his own hair. division.

JOE's pants were torn, and he had to ask his mother to fix it. It was like when he was a child, he did something wrong and asked his parents to help. JOE said, "I'm afraid I'm going to die tonight, but I didn't do what I wanted to do, and I feel like I've lived in vain." Mom understood JOE instantly. Although from the standpoint of parents, I hope that my children are safe and healthy, but everyone is an independent individual and has something that he wants to achieve in this life.

Mom still doesn't know that Joe, who is standing in front of him, has already "died" once. So far, so sad.

After JOE's performance, he felt an unprecedented void. The goal that I have always wanted to achieve, I have waited for too long, and finally I have achieved it, and then.

The head of the band gave Joe the last lesson in his life. The story she told Joe was very similar to the stories I had read about mayflies: the little fish said to the big fish, I want to swim to the sea, and the big fish said that you are in the sea now. The little fish asked the big fish, where is the sea, I only saw water.

"Music" is not "spark". To live is not to find goals, but to perceive everything in life.

22 felt the beauty of the world, preserved it bit by bit, and inspired the lost Joe.

That leaf, like the feather in Forrest Gump, is the beginning, the end, and the new beginning.

The part of 22's collapse was very heartbreaking. The huge bodies, the words that pierced the heart, finally only made 22 feel, "I'm not good enough", "I don't deserve to live", but it is clear that she already loves the feeling of "being alive" so much. ".

I don’t know if the film wants to show the inner world of people with depression, anxiety or extremely low self-confidence through the pictures, but those “you are useless”, “you can’t”, “this is not the goal, this is a mediocre life” are indeed true. , Step by step, a person who was originally full of love for life is finally willing to give up life by himself.

JOE and 22 acted as mentors for each other several times, redeeming each other, showing Christian doctrine, and making the final orientation of the film a positive feeling.

In the end, Joe gave 22 a chance to live, "I have lived once, now it's your turn", you already understand that you have to live.

JOE is also, to live this short life, not to play the piano non-stop, but to understand the truth of life, understand, you can let go of obsessions and be reborn again.

When JOE left, the "quants" said: "You also made us." JOE is a person like "God" who creates the universe and everything.

The last time, the two ran to the earth together, "as far as I can go with you." Tears flowed down my face.

The so-called "place of birth", when watching the "soul" rush to the huge "earth", it is like countless sperm rushing to the egg.

Everyone (soul) used to be so full of expectations and rushed to life (the earth) with all their might. However, some people gradually get lost, or are too persistent, and cannot see the source of "living" clearly.

After such a journey about the "soul", we realized that, in fact, life is not about finding meaning, but perceiving every detail, even if it is a fallen leaf drifting towards your palm. We live in this world to perceive everything.

With the passage of time, Disney has long ceased to be the Disney where the prince kissed the princess, and we don't need to say that Japanese animation is for adults, and American animation is for children.

Every time I watch an animation in the cinema, there are always many children with me. This time, they really didn't understand it. However, what if they don't understand, at least, they can have an impression that many, many years later, when they have grown up, they have encountered many trivial matters in life, even life difficulties, and even can't find the meaning of life, this time , I hope they can remember the movie they saw when they were children, and remember that there was once a musician named JOE, who wanted to return to this world so much, and a soul named 22, even if he was so desperate, Finally, I want to experience life again.

People in this era, maybe, you are so different, you like to live alone or even secluded, you are a little socially afraid, or you simply don’t want too many complicated people and things, there is no problem.

Like looking at the sky, like walking, like listening to other people's stories, like really tasting all the delicious food, this is already life.

This is the life I have been desperately pursuing!


The movie was watched yesterday (25), four stars, long review.

Tonight (26) began the year-end summary, hovering between four stars and five stars. I closed my eyes and thought of the picture of Joe accompany 22 to the earth, and finally decided to five stars. I still want to cry very much. It is to let go of all the past, the things you love, the people you love, forget everything, and start all over again. It is a kind of heroism. It turns out that the heroism of Romain Rolland does not only exist in In this world, it still exists in the origin of life.

Finally, one of my new films for 2020 is five stars.

Is it because of the reduction in public screenings due to the epidemic? Or is it because you are busy watching too few movies? Or, because of the superposition of growth...

I don't know, but my five-star is still the five-star that truly belongs only to me.

Soul quotes

  • Joe: You ready?

    22: Huh?

    Joe: To come live.

    22: ...I'm scared, Joe. I'm not good enough. And anyway, I... I never got my spark.

    Joe: Yes, you did. Your spark isn't your purpose. That last box fills in when you're ready to come live. And the thing is, you're pretty great at jazzing.

  • 22: [in Joe's body] Like my mentor George Orwell used to say, State sponsored education is like the rattling of a stick inside a swill bucket.
