The woman who was willing to take risks for her children flashed at the end. It was Darabont’s message that those who chose to stay in the supermarket made mistakes at the beginning because they chose to protect themselves, but this suits most people. Selfish nature. No matter how to toss in the rest of the time, it is all to dispel the inner fear. In order to survive, there is no essential difference in the purpose of a group of people, but different methods divide the crowd. Most people choose nothingness and resignation. These people are cowardly and unbearable; a small group of people choose to save themselves, but the method is obviously wrong. They regard themselves as elites and give up communicating with people of average ability. Because of the different ways of the crowd, the conflicts escalated, and some people began to become victims. The internal friction successfully transferred the external fear. This section is the most chaotic, but our emotions are completely inclined to the elite group, because they have not stopped the pace of survival, they are still struggling. Compared with the numbness and absurdity of most people, it is full of the brilliance of reason and the ignorant majority. The anti-intellectual behavior shown is worrying.
But is it inevitable that the elite will eventually leave? no! Because apart from the act of running away, the elites lacked practical purposes, where did they escape? There is no answer in their hearts, but why should they rush to escape? Because their fear of lower-class people surpassed their shared fears, elitism urged the break. But the isolated elite group did not survive, because apart from the sense of superiority, their fear of danger is the same as that of the so-called inferior people, and even worse. They are trapped in a smaller space of interest, and finally choose to suicide.
Darabont hates the selfishness and division of the crowd, and he does not hesitate to hurt them both. But how can the dark human nature find the way to salvation? Darabont is vague, but at the end he puts out the woman who was willing to sacrifice from the beginning. His rescue may indicate that the weapon to overcome danger is to give up one's fear and give up selfishness. This is too mysterious, it is simply deliberate, that is, the woman is saved because of selflessness. The woman is not so much saved because of selflessness, but it is a fluke escape. There is no inevitability. How can we base our hope of survival on an unwarranted attempt Next, let's talk about it, and fell into the trap of vulgar mysticism in Stephen King's works.
