The footage of the movie is talking

watched it three times

The movie is full of subtext, including the rhythm that gently tells the details of the story

For example, the part where Ian and the heroine discuss logic in the room

The male protagonist is smoking a cigarette, thinking about why the number 11 brings him to meet the female protagonist

The female lead told the male lead that it was I who sent you a signal, and the male lead expressed disbelief and continued to smoke (smoking means thinking about problems)

At this time, the heroine grabbed the burning cigarette in the scientist's hand (meaning that the scientist stopped thinking), got up with the cigarette, took a breath (meaning that it was her thinking), and said: Let me tell you.

After a paragraph of discussion, the heroine asked Ian to look at the light at the door (due to the reflection of the ground, the long light at the door and the reflection were connected to form a golden cross of light with the horizontal slit at the bottom of the door, And the center of the cross shoots a faint light into the room).

Tell the male protagonist that although the crack in the door is small, it is still open. (In this section, the male protagonist and the female protagonist face each other. The background of the male protagonist is the door on the left, and the background of the female protagonist is the door on the right. There is a gap between them, implying that their world is on both sides of the light)

The male protagonist said that outside the door was a pile of dirty clothes that I had left behind, and the female protagonist stuck her head to get the light (meaning entering the world of scientists and telling him what to do.), and said to him: Only go out to know the answer.

The scientist said I still don't understand (being in the shadow of warm colors means that although he is in the light of the universe, he still can't see the truth, and the heroine is in the back, but in the light).

The details of shots like this are everywhere, and I have to sigh at the director's level of care. I savoured the dialogue in the film carefully.

It can be said that the pace is slow, but the amount of information is great. There is a lot to be reminisced about.

    Literary temperament movie, such an old theme played so ambiguous and romantic.

  • Zella 2022-03-23 09:01:53

    The demonstration of science and religion, the first half of love, the second half of seeking, and the final reincarnation confirmation. The film explores the relationship between rational science and emotional belief, and there is no conclusion that one side is wrong or should not have, which is very good at this point.

I Origins quotes

  • [first lines]

    Ian: Every living person on this planet has their own unique pair of eyes. Each their own universe. My name is Doctor Ian Gray. I'm a father, and husband, and I'm a scientist. When I was a child, I realized that the camera was designed exactly like the human eye, taking in light through a lens, forming it into images. I began taking as many pictures of eyes as I possibly could. I'd like to tell you the story of the eyes that changed my world.

  • Kenny: Are you hitting on the waitress in front of your pregnant wife?

    Karen: I don't know if you know this about me, Kenny, but the gene for jealousy? Recessive.
