I remembered that when I was still pre-school, my dad took it to the botanical garden to play. He told me when I was chasing a few cabbage butterflies.
In retrospect, I had to be surprised that my father, who was a worker, had a strange knowledge, and he would have mastered the knowledge of this kind of dead house in that era.
However, I was only five or six years old at the time, and there was no idea about chaos theory in my mind. The butterfly effect described in "the flapping of the wings of a South American butterfly may cause a typhoon in North America" but it resonated with the just budding lever principle in my brain. ...The butterfly flaps its wings, the distance of the continent, the conversion of the lever, the typhoon, it is amazing.
So, this theory and the flying appearance of the few cabbage butterflies at the time were all stamped in my mind.
I just read the wiki. This theory was proposed in the 1960s. It was a meteorological theory at the beginning. Because there are too many factors that affect the weather and are interrelated, small effects can cause huge variables.
Of course, when this theory is used for time travel, it couldn't be better, and it can be regarded as an upgraded version of the grandfather's paradox.
However, the soul of hard science fiction has always believed that the butterfly effect of time travel is incomprehensible for humans. It’s not to say that a person goes back to the past to change history, and then goes back to the future to discover that the future has undergone drastic changes. The soul of hard science fiction believes that even if one elementary particle is sent to another point in time, the entire universe will be completely changed. The so-called radical change refers to the change to the point where humans cannot understand. Physics has no way to understand elementary particles that suddenly appear at a certain point in time.
Probably there are many shots in "2001 Space Odyssey" that can be used to interpret that kind of universe.
Therefore, I have always been curious about how "Butterfly Effect" should look like.
The movie uses the setting of consciousness crossing very cleverly and avoids boring hard science fiction issues very well. This hand is very beautiful and allows the script to focus on humanistic care. I am very satisfied with these treatments.
What I saw was the director's extended version, which is the ending where the protagonist jumped back to the fetal state and strangled himself with an umbilical cord.
The only dissatisfaction is that the inspiration for the protagonist to solve the problem comes from the palmistry man. Because there is no lifeline, he jumps back to the fetal state and strangles himself.
A good psychodrama, I have to add some mysticism--
