burning paradise

It may only take one step to change from a paradise to a hell on earth, and it may be your step. From close friends and relatives to enemies who are suspicious of each other, it may only take one step. The ideal transition is in the second half of the film. It has become the reverie of human beings, because human beings are like this, and it is the root of all evil. No matter how perfect the original intention is, it will eventually become reverie and hope at the end, and the trust and interpersonal relationship between people will become emptiness and harmony. Small~~ but we are still fighting and looking forward to it, even if it is just a fantasy, a movie is a movie after all, all this is just our illusion, and the ending must be ashes as described in the movie~

    Xanadu, independent society, collective fanaticism, personal collapse, human challenges... These are all essentials for isolated island films. The director made his own psychedelic style, and the experience of Richard gradually going crazy in the jungle to the audience is also similar to that of the film. Like a drug. In the end, everything is like a dream, returning to civilization, but returning to the world of adults from a small centralized society.

    Powerful cast: DiCaprio, Guillaume Canet, Tilda Swinston, and it seems that DiCaprio's then-girlfriend Giseley also played. All in all very entertaining. Rating: 8 out of 10

The Beach quotes

  • Richard: I told myself spreading news was part of a traveller's nature, but if I was being completely honest, I was just like everybody else: shit-scared of the great unknown. Desperate to take a little piece of home with me.

  • Richard: When you develop an infatuation for someone you always find a reason to believe that this is exactly the person for you. It doesn't need to be a good reason. Taking photographs of the night sky, for example. Now, in the long run, that's just the kind of dumb, irritating habit that would cause you to split up. But in the haze of infatuation, it's just what you've been searching for all these years.
