Maybe it's about life and death About love about letting go. Westerners like to say "move on", so does the whole movie have that meaning? From when tom couldn't accept his wife's death to when he finally planted the pine cones, that's what he meant by "finish it", I guess it was.
Well, what about that Spanish story written in lizzy's book? It doesn't seem to want to talk about religious significance, so it does mean that the conquerors strongly want immortality but are assimilated by the ironic tree of life? Is it another kind of eternal life? as those white flowers.
Then the bald head playing Tai Chi flew towards the dying nebula with the tree of life. From the ink marks between his fingers, it can be inferred that he is Tom, so how did this guy do it? He made a big bubble to wrap the tree of life, and he could go on forever. Flying all the time, ordinary people will go crazy after being lonely for such a long time, this kind of love obsession is really terrible! Or, is this bald head just Tom's fantasy? So he can play Tai Chi in space so magically, and he can also travel to the Mayan jungle in the novel to pretend to be Adam.
"Requiem for a Dream" has a strong realistic color, even if it is a fantasy, it makes you understand that the more beautiful the illusion, the more miserable the reality; "The Fountain of Youth" seems to express some love life in the form of stories. Something, but what it is, is really not that clear.
Also, I don't agree with the reincarnation statement, I think the story is packed with oriental elements that are not clearly expressed, reincarnation. . . Forget it, the connection of some shots is just to make the theme that the director wants to express more clear, no matter what the theme is.
I believe that people who like this film will definitely like it, but for me, it is ok to be obscure. After watching it for a while, let's forget it.
