When Humanity Comes to the Wilderness of Civilization

The voyeuristic perspective, uneasy shaking and connection, the music of primitive tribes has a frequency and vibration close to the heartbeat of the earth.

There is a passage in the film where two cars are chasing in the desert, and the smoke from the wheels seems to be the competition and hunting of the weak and the strong under the laws of nature.

The director tries to use a strong contrast to imply that the by-product of capital is extending its bloody tentacles to the barbarous areas of civilization, but the darkness and greed of human nature are recklessly devouring the fresh life that is closest to nature.

We can no longer judge the merits and demerits of civilization by the elegance of its forms, and tenderness and fragility have to reveal the cruel truth hidden by data and power through paranoia and madness.

    Both the male and female protagonists are in love, but it is a big failure to integrate a romance film with a humanitarian care film. The relationship between love and justice is naturally asymmetrical. The result of a blunt graft is like watching two movies, which is very uncomfortable. The biggest surprise was to find out that Kalinda from Good Wife was making a cameo appearance. She didn't wear heavy makeup, but her eyebrows were still deep.

    It feels too much like Ralph's previous play, the English Patient. . long. It's hard to understand, I spent 2 hours looking at that handsome face. The love performance for his wife is not in place, and I really don't see how sincere the love is. The final choice of death is also slightly weaker. Perhaps a person with such a temperament as Ralph should start the plot with gentleness and end it romantically.
