A good movie allows you to see the true cruelty of life

For the magnificent blockbuster movies in the cinema, in my eyes, it is only a four-star evaluation.
Personally, a truly good movie does not have to be full of big names; it does not have to be shocking and powerful.
A really good movie allows people to see life, see the truth, and even see yourself.

The "Black Mirror" series in the United Kingdom fully interprets the negative impact of social networks. We were all members of cyber violence, and no one can escape unless you have never commented or reposted any news information.

There are three stories in "Disconnection", which are independent of each other, but they are connected together.
Just like in life, people who don’t know each other rely on social networks to form deep or shallow relationships.

1. The story of husband and wife
Who has not had the experience of confiding in strangers?
So at the beginning of social networking, everyone will have a few strange QQ netizens.
Only gradually, these netizens will disappear unconsciously.
Because of each other, there is nothing to say.

Once,
because they were unfamiliar with each other, they spoke freely.
Because we know each other well, real life will still be irrelevant after the social network.
So I can spit out the sadness and secrets deep in my heart to strangers one by one.
——If in reality, can be honest with each other, who needs to waste chat time with strangers?

2. The female reporter and the
15-year-old boy are naked chats on a private chat website.
A certain mature woman is a female reporter on a small TV station.
One is for making money and living; the
other is for fame and fortune, and for news topics.
Become a "friend" because you inadvertently search on social networks.

He thought that they were friends and could be together.
She believes that he is a lost boy and needs help.
He believes that his life is safe and content, and what he wants is companionship, not help.
She thought that everything she did was right, and it was the adult's help to the lost teenager.

As everyone knows,
they are just using each other and misinterpreting each other.
——If in reality, you don't understand me, I don't understand you, and interfere with other people's lives will only be boring.

3. Jessica and Little Mozart.
I prefer to use Little Mozart to call that 10th grade autistic student Ben.
Musical genius, maverick, but has no friends because of bad sociability.
Two little boys in the rebellious period created a virtual account called Jessica to chat with.
One of the little boys, in the process of chatting with him, took on his role and fell in love with the lonely Mozart.

Although the subsequent Yanzhao incident was an unexpected accident.
But life is just like dominoes. A decision or a prank will trigger a series of changes.

Finally, the little musical genius Mozart hanged himself.
The parents and sister finally began to reflect on their neglect of this autistic teenager.
The rebellious boys also began to reflect on the butterfly effect they had caused.
Tragedy is unexpected;
introspection, there is better than nothing...
——If in reality, you can put aside social networks, put aside the so-called busy work, and listen to the voices of people around you.
Life will be much better.

PS. Little Mozart’s sister confided her sadness to her friends; her friends were related to the boring chat on Facebook. So my sister broke out and spit on her friend.

I think this is what the director wants to express, the real life's rejection of social networks.
