Since it is called "Revolutionary Road", the ending is not sad, because someone will die. Whether it is in real life or historical stories, as long as it is mixed with the color of revolution, sacrifice becomes a necessary ending. As for the result of the revolution, there is a difference, and people are mortal.
A revolution in a broad sense is a drastic change. It is often a series of changes in which one interest group adopts violent methods such as violence to attack another interest group, thereby forming a series of changes in different interest patterns. Faster than ever, the
film references revolution as a way of venting grievances and changing the status quo. When Aristotle analyzed the causes of revolution in his "Politics", he pointed out: "Some people see that others who are equal to them are taking advantage, and their hearts are full of injustice, and they try to achieve the same state of equality. Others People are indeed superior, and seeing those who cannot compare with themselves get the same or even more, it stirs up injustice in the heart." Thus, the lowly people make revolutions in pursuit of equality, and the same people Revolution for a better position. Machiavelli pointed out: "People are willing to change their rulers because they want to change their situation, and this hope motivates them to take up arms against their rulers." These views mainly emphasize the psychological reasons for the revolution, but The economic and political roots of the revolution are ignored.
The revolution between Frank and Aibo is a battle of spiritual ideals that all human beings must face. This battle ended in failure for most of the people, and continued to set obstacles in this war of human beings. In fact, human beings themselves All kinds of flaws, such as inertia and greed, are enough to obliterate the perseverance of most people, and finally return without success, or stay put.
In this film, abortion is used to express the ideal stillbirth and Aibo's death proves that the revolution is cruel. Revolution requires sacrifice. Sacrifice is not necessarily in exchange for the victory of the revolution.
