Heavy taste, small and fresh

These two words really don't match. But like this movie, many elements conflict with each other out of harmony.

Originally, I was going to relax for the end of the final exam. Japanese and Indian girls chose this film. After watching the introduction, they told me that it was a safe pure love film. I didn't intend to watch the pure love movie, and I was afraid to cry. Just because I was afraid of appearing to be too hypocritical, I agreed "sweetly". After watching the movie, I found out that in addition to the name of pure love, it doesn't even have a half-star love. All that was left in my mind was blood, cruelty, cruelty, tragic, miserable. Human beings are indistinguishable. Realistic ideals intertwined.

In fact, the movie is very heavy. Cut in and then dig a lot of deep points. So many stories, so many people, so many lives. In just over an hour, I will present you with a lot of choices and selected results. You can choose a worldview to look at everything around you, your background, the love you have met, a person in your imagination, and her cuteness or hatefulness. The choice is yours, there is no right or wrong, there is no right answer. only belongs to you.

The male protagonist is small and fresh, his love is fierce, hot, and affectionate. He loves so dusty. It's a pity that he is obsessed with fantasy love. But what is valuable is that he is obsessed with his own love. His aloof life philosophy is matched with a kind heart and a pure appearance, and he is really a single star in the entire purgatory-like west. "It was my luck to meet him." Hope is the best thing a person can give. Giving others the hope of living and awakening the humanity that has been annihilated because of survival is much higher than love. The male protagonist is thin, but he gives so much to another person with a strong spirit. It's love, not love, it makes people brave. He is brave. The ending of the movie is very dramatic, in a sense, maybe he continues his love with the person he loves in another way. Only, through another person's heart and his eyes. His promise and mission were in his last tears. The gunshots, the salt jar, the beloved woman's goodbye kiss from another man, the soaked book, her eyes in the faint light and shadow. Love is not reciprocal. The male protagonist must not care about her innocence. Even if she doesn't love him, he will persist. This kind of love is so great.

It seems that the reality west is scary. Some of the details in the film are touched inadvertently. For example, a husband and wife robbery. The woman ordered her husband to shoot. The man's trembling eyes, cramped breathing, and finally did not start. Some may be cowardly. I'd rather imagine that a kind of goodwill is sprouting. As soon as the door of the commissary opened, two children stood. Clean and don't know what's going on inside.

It's really just to survive. Not being able to survive makes people lose their minds.

They call the natives savages, endless hacking. There is no civilization at all. The movie says when civilization arrives. It seems that at that time there was really no class, no race, and no public opinion. Come and go freely. Such a wish is so beautiful.

I remember one of the historians in the movie saying, "A long time in the future, now will be a long time in the past." Although this sounded very awkward, it seemed to say something. But the contrast between the future and the past is clearly about two eras. And in the future, we have hope that it will become better.

Again, living under hope is not too bad.
