Wipe away the tears and start to act

After waiting for The Cove for a long time, I finally saw the connection between friends and neighbors. I knew I would cry, but I didn't expect to cry so badly, and I was still trembling after watching the film. Besides, the time for the film to face the massacre is probably no more than 5 minutes.

There are many environmental documentaries, and there are also many cattle films. However, the filming is so narrative (the team’s two intensive setup of the instrument), and it can provide many scientific clues (the mercury content, and the explanation of whether the mask is really Japanese culture and tradition), and every reason is given. With sufficient extension and support (the Japanese test provides financial resources to support small third world countries to win votes, insert a sentence, cover the tricks, and the ba of a certain Guoxue?), the details of the characters are accurate and not sloppy (each one The background introduction of the team members, the IWC Japanese representative dozed off while listening to others’ speeches, the Japanese fishery officials’ shock and desperate restraint when they saw the killing scenes), restrained the emotionally provocative scenes but gave them a moment of release (the female diver described her Once approaching the besieged dolphins, Ric walked into the venue with a screen on his chest, silently, and was taken away without resisting, but I lost control of my tears again), (this lineup is a long sentence) but not many.

Dolphins and elephants are animals that I can't explain clearly and can be closely connected with a place in my heart. The first time I watched a circus when I was a child, I shed tears inexplicably and was laughed at by my dad. I even felt embarrassed. But the second time I leaned into an elephant in the zoo, an elephant surrounded my shoulder with a wet nose. The nose touches my cheek, I feel so natural. A friend told me that scientists have done a survey and found that humans like animals with big eyes because they think they look good. I really let me explain why. I think they are spiritual and they are perfect.

There is no need to abuse a country because of a problem. We should have been less ignorant long ago. What we need to know is that after all these problems, there must be interests, politics, and speech control. Any country, how civilized and beautiful we wish to think, may have such problems. We have already passed it. The gullible age. Of course, you can't stop there. When anger and tears are not transformed into action, there is no use for farts except to make one's mood worse and the more negative the life is. Any story that happens to them will happen, and it is more likely to happen in a society like ours. Are we ready? Can we not have agile skills or sufficient knowledge and skills like the members of the filming crew, and more importantly, have firm beliefs to act?

    I have some opinions on the narrative, but the rage at the climax gave me a lot of pimples; it's time to come to Guangdong to make a monkey brain documentary

    OMG! Shock! As the dolphin calls subsided, the color of the water turned red, and my heart fell to the bottom!

The Cove quotes

  • Richard O'Barry: The thing that turned me around was the death of Flipper, of Cathy. She was really depressed. I could feel it. I could see it. And she committed suicide in my arms. That's a very strong word, suicide. But you have to understand dolphins and other whales are not automatic air breathers, like we are. Every breath they take is a conscious effort. And so they can end their life whenever life becomes too unbearable by not taking the next breath. And it's in that context I use the word suicide. She did that. She swam into my arms, looked me right in the eye, and took a breath... and didn't take another one.

  • Mandy-Rae Cruikshank: When you're out swimming in the ocean and you have whales and dolphins come by you, it is one of the most incredible experiences ever. It's so humbling that this wild creature would come up and be so interested in you. It's... It's unbelievable, really.
