The Spirit of Christmas visited the miser Scrooge on Christmas Eve. This Christmas Eve completely changed the lonely and indifferent old man.
Recently, it happened to be watching Yalong's "Looking into the Sun", and he also mentioned this novel. He called it existential shock therapy. It also discusses the so-called awakening experience, which is the complete transformation of a person's personality when he truly faces death.
Although some people say that this is a terrible and ingenious film, I really don't think so. It may also be related to the study of psychology or the recent case.
In the face of some people who try to commit suicide, sometimes he is asked to imagine his funeral. Probably the same way the future spirit led Scrooge to his own graveyard and made him stare at his tombstone.
This film is worth thinking about something for everyone. If you are confused and meaningless, you may think differently. Because not everyone is so lucky to have the spirit of Christmas to lead you through the past and the future.
When I saw the old Scrooge looking at my young self, I suddenly felt a strong sense of urgency. This sense of urgency stems from my own sudden realization that one day I will also grow old like this, without youth.
I also borrow a saying from Saint Augustine: Only when facing death can a person's self be truly born. Scrooge's true self awakened, so he changed from the indifference and selfishness of the past and became a person full of love and compassion.
It does not have to be kind or compassionate to be true self-birth. But when this self exists, a person will know better what he wants, or as one of my visitors said, he knows more about "why he is alive". Just like Scrooge, he realized that the most important thing to him wasn't money at the moment he faced his own death.
Maybe this is a horror movie, and the tone is still pretty dark. But at the end, everything cheered up.
God bless us, everyone!
