Chapter 1,694 Everyone knows the pain of scraping bones, but how many people have the courage?
"127 Hours" is not actually a popular movie. On the contrary, movies like this, outdoor adventure-themed movies, are actually slightly niche.
Of course, the so-called niche here refers to the category of outdoor adventure!
Like the premiere at the Film Academy, many people came who were not familiar with this, but it did not prevent them from easily understanding the movie.
Different people have different opinions on this movie.
One film critic wrote: "To be honest, I really didn't expect that "127 Hours" directed by director Li Yi and directed by Li Bin, a new director from the Beijing Film Academy, turned out to be an outdoor adventure film.
When talking about outdoor adventure, it is hard not to think of those extreme sports. I once discussed it with my friends and came to the conclusion that most of the time, whether it is outdoor adventure or extreme sports, they are not within the reach of ordinary people.
Therefore, it seems to be a little far away from us. At first, to be honest, I was mostly critical of this movie.
What I have to admit is that people’s realms and values are often very different. From the perspective of people like us who are worried about housing prices and livelihoods, giving up a good job like a senior engineer to go mountain climbing is simply a waste of money.
It's such a painful move.
Because it is difficult for us to understand why we would do such a thing?
But after watching the movie, I gradually understood that people are different. Although the male protagonist of the movie has a prestigious job, he is essentially a lonely person!
In fact, when it comes to a new director making his first film, I have always felt that a one-man show is really not a good choice.
Because it is indeed difficult to film a person's story. The plot emphasizes dramatic conflict. The so-called conflict is often the conflict between people that can make the audience resonate and tense. This is why, even if you shoot a disaster movie that pays attention to visual effects, it will not work.
Usually, a couple in marital crisis is involved, and while avoiding disaster, they quarrel with each other until there is a clue to reconciliation. Because "fighting with others is endless fun", the audience will feel more after watching it.
However, "127 Hours" handles this aspect surprisingly well!
In "127 Hours", Allen actually has to fight against the sky and giant rocks. If he simply showed his desperate life and broken arm in these five days, it would not be a pleasant, inspiring and exciting process, so
The director did artistic processing and dramatic processing.
First of all, before Allen was in danger, he had a process of interacting with two girls. At first glance, this has nothing to do with the theme of the film, but it is actually an important prelude to shaping Allen's character.
It was he who enthusiastically showed the way for the girls, which showed his enthusiasm; it was he who led the girls to a fresh and dangerous route, which showed his adventurous spirit; it was he who fell into the water with the girls through the slit.
The laughter in the game reflects his frankness; it is the details of his operations that reflect his professionalism and rich experience; it is also the process by which the girls who were initially afraid of dangerous routes finally enjoyed the fun of adventure, let us
We also realized the reasons for this adventurous spirit and the great pleasure it can bring. This paved the way for the adventure of Allen, who loves adventure, and also allowed us to understand the reason why he did this.
Then, Allen was in danger, and went through the process of being annoyed, thinking calmly, trying hard, despairing and frustrated, and finally accepting his fate calmly, and finally struggling to escape.
This is a natural process for a person to fall into danger, and the director's rhythm arrangement and Xu Hao's performance reflect this very well.
At the same time, Allen's personality traits reflected earlier are also well connected here. His professional thinking of countermeasures, frank imitation of radio records, and venting of anger make people feel real and nervous, making people worry about his fate.
The movie also adds his interactions with people here. Of course, it is impossible for a fairy to descend from the sky and fall in love with him. Instead, through hallucinations, he can enter into interactions with friends and parents, and into the relationship with the woman he loves deeply.
Reverie, which also reflects his true love for his family, his expectation for love, and his attachment to life.
In this way, his inner driving force and desire to survive were established in this artistic hazy scene, which also accumulated his personal strength for his final escape, as well as the emotional recognition of the audience.
Perhaps it is this recognition that brings the audience into a scene of deep danger that is unfamiliar to ordinary people, and allows them to experience his anxiety, pain and hallucinations. He misses his family and fantasizes about love. Of course,
There are also "what if" assumptions that are bound to occur at this time.
Time and time again, the spark of possible escape suddenly sprouted, only to have to give up in the attempt.
Seeing this, you will feel how similar it is to the setbacks and difficulties we often encounter in life. In the seemingly smooth progress of life, we suddenly encounter huge difficulties, are caught off guard, feel annoyed and complain, and at the same time we also try
To solve the problem, sometimes we get out of trouble, sometimes we sink in anxiety, and many times it depends on resilience and luck.
In fact, the movie laid the foreshadowing very early on. When did he come up with the idea of cutting off his own arm?
I think he had this idea very early on. In fact, the moviegoers will also have this idea in their hearts to a greater or lesser extent.
But how much courage does it take to have an idea and make such a decision?
We all know that the most effective solutions to problems often seem simple, but require greater determination and courage. Therefore, we often put such solutions as a "last resort" low-priority consideration, but often
I found out that at the moment when I really had no choice, it was too late.
Allen finally made up his mind and did not use the knife at the "last resort" moment when he was so hungry that he completely lost his strength. If that moment came, it would be too late.
Of course, movies are always movies. In reality, real surgery does not take as long as a few minutes in the movie, but these few minutes are enough to make people feel horrified. Combined with reality, the admiration for the actor Allen also arises spontaneously.
And when at the end, he was rescued, and the helicopter landed amidst the music, I actually felt a sense of relief, as if I was there, accompanying Allen to experience this moment. When I felt this way, it naturally felt to me personally,
The film's sense of empathy was a success.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, what does it feel like to go through the test of death?
People can be optimistic and choose not to give up, but how long can this persistence last?
Optimism requires you to take action, which requires energy, but despair is so effortless, tempting you to give up all actions. People will not give up hope easily. But where is the bottom line of "easy"?
If death is a kind of relief and giving up is a kind of comfort, then what should we do when we are helpless? And most of the time, no one else is watching or encouraging us?
There will be many times in a person's life when he becomes very fragile, and even thinks that he is about to die. However, after watching "127 Hours", I think that 99 out of 100 people who think that they are bound to die will find a reason to live.
.
Really, after watching this movie, I feel that I can do anything. As long as I want to accomplish it, I can definitely achieve it. When I see various aspects of life, I feel that life can really have various possibilities.
The reason why life is unique and valuable lies in its infinite possibilities.
To use a popular saying, if you are not even afraid of death, then why are you still afraid of living?
"127 Hours" is undoubtedly a very exciting film, with a simple storyline and a not-so-simple philosophy of life. The small in the small makes the big. It completed the experience of life in just 5 days and 7 hours.
Time here can no longer be thought of as the flow speed in our daily lives. In that period of life, time measured in hours, minutes, and seconds is a stage play in which a person's psychological, physical, and social values are the protagonists.
127 hours is enough to complete a spiritual reincarnation.
The canyons and boulders in the film are a destined hurdle in our lives. We must either die on this hurdle or step on it to reach a higher place.
Only with a strong will to survive, a strong respect for life, and a strong attachment to human emotions and society can we truly adapt to and conquer the world we live in.
Condensation is the essence. The essence of life is reflected in these 127 hours. In this only 127 hours of life experience, pain is greater than happiness. The director also highlights in the film that unique human emotions and strong survival ideas transcend physical pain.
!
We all know the story of Guan Yunchang's bone scraping to cure poison, but in fact, under normal circumstances, we can't imagine cutting off our forearms in an awake state, because there are many things in normal society that cover up our contact with the most essential things in life.
Only when people are placed in a wild and ruthless wilderness can things become clear to the bottom. Only when people are placed in the most primitive environment can people become slightly more real!
Because it eliminates the glitz and rush of external interference in group society. In this film, what is the precipitated thing in human life?
It is not a technology of survival, but emotions, including family affection, love, and friendship.
These emotions coupled with human survival instinct allow humans to thrive in a harsh and lonely living environment.
No matter how many life-saving tools and methods are used, we can't get rid of the huge boulder that is pressing on the human body. Instead, we still use the most primitive method (cutting off the arm), which is also called the stupidest and most ineffective method in modern society.
life.
When we, as a viewer, look at the performance of similar beings in such scenes, we ourselves can’t help but be shocked. So we should never be disappointed with our spiritual and emotional strength as human beings. Because we are human beings. What is shown inside
What comes out has a lasting and powerful shock to people's souls.
There are always regrets in human life. A warm life longs for richer days, but rich days require the loss of a lot of happiness. It is difficult to balance both. No matter which one you choose, you will leave regrets. But we still have to start from the value of life.
When it comes to choices, some people want to live a peaceful life like this, so a warm life is the best choice for them. Some people want to live a valuable life, so a wealthy life is more suitable for them.
However, I think that when it is time to endure peace and poverty, live each day well; when it is time to start working hard and realize your self-worth, you should also be brave.
In fact, there are not too many choices in life. It is enough to do things at every stage according to your own heart. Some people say: People who run fast are not as good as people who run slowly, or a horse cannot go as far as a camel. After all,
The reason is that people who run fast need to rest, but people who run slowly can persist for a long time. Over time, the person who is getting closer and closer to the goal is the person who runs slowly. Therefore, there is no need to envy those who are now running.
Those who are leading, as long as they persist and never give up, sooner or later they will become that successful one."
At the same time, for some movie fans who like outdoor sports, "127 Hours" is even more highly praised.
One fan wrote: "As an outdoor sports person, I have been looking forward to this movie for a long time.
Before watching the film, I only had this question: What kind of will to survive is required for people to be willing to pay the price of broken bones and amputation?
The movie, which lasted for more than an hour, gave the answer in the last few minutes: In order to survive and suffer tremendous pain, Allen did not intend to save the world, all he wanted was to continue living.
He did realize his wish. After 127 hours of struggle, the one-armed Allen was reunited with his family, married a wife and had children, and continued his outdoor sports career! Yes, the answer is that simple.
To be honest, after watching the movie, I doubted whether I would have the courage to break my own arm in the same situation. Even now, the sound of two crunching bones still clearly echoes in my ears...
.
In the movie, the weight of survival explodes in three paragraphs:
The first section, the blue sky and the orange-red Grand Canyon - a standard postcard-style scenery. This section mainly shows Allen's harmonious relationship with nature. At this time, he is full of life, riding, jumping and chatting with the girls.
You can jump into the water or something, and the rhythm of the film is also quite cheerful;
The second paragraph is the main body of 127 hours, the cold stone and the troubled Allen. Here nature is placed on the opposite side, and the blue sky becomes a symbol of freedom. The camera is between Allen's current situation of being unable to move and freedom's crazy past.
Constant switching, showing through contrast that there is indeed something lovely about ordinary life, here, as time goes by, the weight of survival is increasing;
The third paragraph is very short. It just introduces Allen's life after his escape and just shows a series of photos. In fact, I think the "short" treatment here is just right, because a person's life is so ordinary, and the weight of survival at this time
Then quietly disappeared behind the scenes, which also reflected the superhuman will inspired by the struggle for survival in the second paragraph.
There is probably such a stone in everyone's life, which places the things you love on both ends of the scale, forcing you to make painful choices. In fact, there are many things like air, so common that you will not even realize it.
However, if you are suffocated for a moment, the importance of air in life will immediately become apparent.
No one can guarantee that he will not encounter the destined stone in his life during his adventure, but how many people have the courage to survive without losing an arm?
At least I personally can never bear that kind of pain!"
