Dogs in White

- After watching "Antarctic Adventure"



, people are no strangers to dogs, and they even have their seats in many family members. Loyalty is also one of the pronouns of dogs. After watching "Antarctic Adventure", I have a deeper understanding and perception of them.

This film describes a scientist who came to Antarctica in order to find meteorites that fell from alien planets. On the eve of a blizzard, he insisted on going to Melbourne Mountain to explore. The harsh climate made it impossible for helicopters to take off and land, and could only rely on dog sleds. So the protagonist of the film - eight mighty polar sled dogs resolutely undertake the task of transporting scientists and a large number of instruments he carries. On the way, the scientist accidentally fell into the glacier, and it was the witty sled dog who carefully put the rope around the scientist and rescued him. Biting icy water puts scientists' lives on the line, and the cold wind and snow also frostbite the hands of polar guide Jerry. The scientific expedition team must return to the United States in its entirety, and the helicopter has a limited capacity. The poor sled dogs ended up being abandoned in Antarctica, and no one cared about their survival except Jerry.

Without human help, sled dogs can only rely on their own instincts to survive. In the face of adversity, the eight dogs united sincerely, and under the leadership of the head dog, they fought against the sky, against the wind and snow, and against the more ferocious snow leopard. In the end, the old-fashioned Jack couldn't get rid of the shackles of the shackles, and the shadow (?) of the fall was also buried in the wind and snow.

When Jerry, who tried every means to return to the South Pole, embraced the surviving Max affectionately, there was a sigh in the cinema. Yes, 175 days, polar, ice sheets, 6 survivors. When the note jumped up lightly, the audience's heartstrings were instantly plucked, and it was incessant and even turbulent.

Several details in the film are truly tear-jerking bombs:

when "Shadow" accidentally fell and was dying, all the sled dogs snuggled together tightly, licking their wounds and keeping them warm. Say goodbye to "Shadow" with unbreakable family affection.

When hungry and cold, Max found a dead seal. At this time, the sled dogs let their guard down, and Maya, the head dog, was bitten on the leg by another seal. In order for everyone to survive heroically, Maya chose to "hand over power" and held a solemn handover ceremony. When the new head dog, Max, gently placed the hunted food in front of Maya, the atmosphere and affinity made me sigh.

If one day the dog becomes the master of the world and we are abandoned in the wasteland, I don't know what kind of film the dog director will make.

    Compared with the original Japanese version of "Antarctic Story" in 1983, "Antarctica Adventure" in 2006 expanded the human part, which increased the dramatic tension of the story. However, because of this, the process of survival of the dogs in the polar region has been greatly deleted. The cruel reality was also beautified by the way, making the dogs lucky enough to survive not real enough! The original event "15 only 2 students" has also become "8 only 6 students"! …If you remember correctly, I watched the beginning of this film on the movie channel in junior high school!
