that would be true biting.
Between being bitten by it or sinking to death, which one would you choose?
Don't die, it's human nature.
Beaver tells the story of how men found themselves. Under the reality of the current economic crisis, it seems that many people are depressed and depressed, so we need such a role model to tell everyone that depression can be overcome and depression can be cured, but the process must not be so simple and easy, the protagonist in the film finally It was painful to return to normal life after paying the price of one hand. But it is also a very lucky thing to be able to return to a normal life, to return to the original family and work, and to allow children and lovers to accept me again. You know, this man once planned to hang himself.
Well, that's the whole summary of the film. Hollywood's mainstream movies always convey positive things. Just like our main theme movies, the ending must be inspiring. After the tone is set, you can only move your mind during the process. For example, talk about what kind of predicament the protagonist is in, what method he used, what price he paid, etc... Usually, if it depends on a man or woman, it is a romance film, if it does not rely on a person, it is a literary film. If you grew up in the fire of war, it would be a war movie or an action movie, Barabara, that's all.
In this film, helping the owner out of the predicament is a doll beaver, the kind of stuffed toy that can be put on the hand to perform a puppet show. It can be sold for 8 yuan at the Liyuan Night Market. To be honest, I just wanted to give Xiao Zhao a show to coax her to sleep, but I didn't expect it to have a healing effect. The protagonist who is depressed should be depressed. He is extremely unconfident and drinks heavily. He is actually a rich second generation (and only the rich second generation has the leisurely mood of depression), and his wife is a roller coaster designer (cool), Two sons, the eldest is in middle school and is in a rebellious adolescence, and the younger is in kindergarten. Because of his mental illness, the family is not happy. The eldest son didn't like his father's depression all day long and couldn't do anything, and the younger son also became withdrawn and silent because he had no one to accompany him. At the beginning, maybe his wife sympathized with him and encouraged him, but the time dragged on for too long, and his condition showed no sign of improvement, and even worsened. Tired, the wife had enough, had to separate. The protagonist leaves home and lives in a hotel, where he lives on alcohol paralysis. Finally, one day, when he wakes up, he undoes the belt and hooks the bathroom door... At this moment, the director makes the scene a little magical , a plush beaver doll saves the protagonist...
And it speaks to the protagonist. Encourage the protagonist to live, relying on the beaver, the protagonist is like a different person, maybe in his subconscious, he is indeed no longer the one who used to be depressed and reluctant to talk, he has become a lively, cheerful, optimistic and positive beaver Sir...it certainly works, the change is obvious. It turns out that as long as a person starts to deceive himself, he is invincible. Under the leadership of Mr. Beaver, the protagonist has undergone earth-shaking changes. The protagonist's wife asked him to move back, and the two were reconciled; Mr. Beaver even became good friends with the younger son, helping the younger son to change his withdrawn personality... ...and was inspired by the game with the younger son, developed new products, and achieved good results in market sales... Mr. Beaver occupied the protagonist's body and his entire life, but all this was actually just the protagonist himself. A play, but he himself did not notice. When the people around him felt that he was getting deeper and deeper into the play, and gradually concealed himself and let Mr. Beaver come forward as the spokesperson, it seemed a little too late. Mr. Beaver was endowed with independent thoughts and requirements by the protagonist, and it was difficult to abandon him at will... In the end , With the help of his family and self-reflection, the protagonist finally realizes that the reason why he can regain the courage and confidence in life is relying on himself instead of Mr. Beaver. He finally decides to get rid of Mr. Beaver no matter how much he pays. At this moment, Mr. Beaver seems to be unwilling to leave the left hand of the protagonist who has been occupying all the time. In desperation, the protagonist turns on the chainsaw...
This is the story that Beaver tells. A story about how a man got his life back. Starring Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster, the director is also the Hollywood talent Jodie Foster.
I think the director should want to tell everyone that the financial crisis is not terrible, failure is not terrible, as long as you live there will be opportunities. But look at the way the protagonist failed to heal in the play, splitting another self through a puppet... Moreover, the split is so logical and lightning-fast, it seems that the puppet's soul immediately grows when the puppet is put on the hand. New me... Of course, this can be said to be the director's failure. The lack of detail in handling this section is also a major failure of the whole film. However, for many people who have serious frustrations in their lives, it may be really enlightening. They have failed and seem to have reached a point where they cannot retreat. Then pretend to be another person, such as Schwarzenegger. Or Brother Chun, completely abandon the original self and immediately resurrect with blood on the spot. This is the so-called as long as a person is cruel and deceives himself, there is nothing he can't do. Of course, maybe you are not as good as the protagonist in the play. Innate conditions (a company left by my father, a beautiful wife, a talented son...), but it seems that there is more hope of success than simply dying. But remember, don't use any doll and put it on your hand or head (huh?!).
Ps: Jodie Foster is really beautiful in this show, and she doesn't look old at all... On the contrary, the folds on Uncle May's face can no longer be covered... Alas, thinking of the brave heart of those years...
