Unforgettable pure...

I don't know what the original purpose of the people who made this film was, and I've never seen any introductions or reviews of this film. But I was deeply infatuated with the story, not because of the jokes in it, but because of the purity, a purity that cannot be faked or replicated.



The story describes a very simple and shocking story for me: two children were lost, and their father kept looking for them; the poachers stole a lot of ivory and frantically avoided the inspectors; Soldiers fight with each other; a botanist and a female doctor drive a plane into the desert unfortunately, and the two divide and reconcile... These originally unrelated stories are closely connected with the ingenious combination of the screenwriter, and, for us It shows a kind of human's original purity-innocence, innocence, kindness...



I will never forget the protagonist in the story, Qi Ge, an indigenous man, even when his child disappeared, he still remembered to tell others to look for the animal that could be used as a A dead elephant of food; he was in a hurry to find his child, but when he met a botanist dehydrated in the desert, he stopped and helped him; he was pointed at a gun, but he took it without hesitation because That was no deterrent to him, it was just a stick; he didn't hesitate to save everyone, including another poacher who had attacked him, when the poachers set fire in revenge and wanted to burn them all. He was so excited that he almost jumped up when he learned the news of his children; when he saw two long-lost children, he ran happily, hugged happily, and wept happily...



Chigo, for us It shows the most primitive brilliance of human nature, and the simplest and most direct thought achieves the purest and most kind behavior.



I live in this complex society, where everyone guards against each other, and even attacks others. We are always thinking about others and ourselves with the most complex thinking, we keep going in circles with each other, and gradually, the mind loses its direction. We have lost ourselves... In



this way, we are very tired, exhausted physically and mentally...



Under such loss and fatigue, we have lost our original purpose and original dream. We forget our hearts...



Once we could cheer for one less class in the afternoon, once we could be happy for a long time with a simple blessing, once we could be flustered because the person we like passed by the window, once we could get a pack of extra I'm so excited for the snack... that simple, innocent face, lost in the urban jungle...



I saw in The Gods Must Be Crazy II the kind of simplicity and innocence that I saw in The Gods Must Be Crazy II, the kind that would reach out to help without hesitation Others, that kind of pure happiness.



If I also go back to the dense woods and feel the simplest fragrance of flowers and shades, will I be able to find the lost purity. In the open field, under the bright stars, and in the trickling water, can you breathe the simplicity and peace that once was? ...



miss ~ that kind of pure...

    I watched it in the cinema when I was a child, and I can't forget the heroine jumping up and down the trees in the African savannah.

    Even better. It turns out that the Haier Brothers' fire escape was borrowed from here. Animals are still very funny.
