Maybe I have those wings in my heart too...

The first time I watched "Birdman", I was in junior high school. Before, I only watched action movies, comedy movies, horror movies, and sci-fi movies. "Birdman" was the first literary movie I watched patiently (if it is If it is a literary film).
Maybe it's the reason for the restlessness of adolescence. I really watched this film with gritted teeth, and I didn't feel anything after that. It felt like I drank a glass of white water.
A few years later, I suddenly remembered that I had seen this movie one day, and suddenly wanted to watch it again, so I turned it out and watched it again.
It felt completely different the second time around, which was weird.
It seems that I understand a lot of things I didn't understand before, and almost every detail tells me something, maybe this is growing up.
Years later, the plot of the movie has been blurred, and I only vaguely remember the scene where the hero huddles in the corner of the ward. Occasionally, it hurts my heart, and Nicolas Cage's melancholy and sad eyes cannot be forgotten.

    Al loves bird people more than women and birds people love birds more than humans. Two people who are emotionally different from ordinary people, after experiencing the trauma of war, use the consciousness of normal people to decide to use the mental hospital as the last refuge. This should be the most powerful accusation against the war. The structure of the film is brilliant. The interlaced flashbacks of three periods of time buried enough foreshadowing. The emotional tendencies of the two have gradually surfaced as the plot progresses. The use of Internet photography is also great.

    Okay. The audiovisual is quite mature. There is no explanation in many places: Why did the two become friends? Why did Birdy enlist in the army? Birdy jumped one last time, why didn't he let him die? On the whole, it looks a bit hard to twist out, and I also want to hitchhiker in the Vietnam War. The same goes for freedom, which is the exact opposite of killing the protagonist in "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Asylum", and let the protagonist survive with great fanfare.

Birdy quotes

  • Birdy: I guess it's kinda hard to be good at something nobody wants, huh?

  • Birdy: There's nothing in my life to keep me here anymore. I wish I could die and be born again as a bird.
