The Greatest Showman - Chapter 1956

[One thousand nine hundred and twenty-one distant echoes]

The movie is over.

The melodious and sad piano music was flowing slowly in the auditorium. The lights were still not on, and the audience remained in a dark state. On the big screen was slowly appearing the list of production staff

“Director: Christopher Nolan”, “Screenwriters: Jonathan Nolan and Christopher Nolan”, “Producer: Emma Thomas”, “Producer: Renly Hall”…

Minimal white fonts slowly appear on the black screen It is displayed on the top of the screen, just like the black and white keys of a piano. There is a tenacity and gentle power in the silence, which slowly settles the surging emotions of the audience. The subtle and unique experience maintains a rare silence. .

They need a little time.

Graham anticipated the ending of the movie: Cooper and Murphy finally meet again, and Tom becomes a loess; but Graham did not anticipate the real ending of the movie: Cooper and Murphy are separated again , because Murphy has a home of his own, while Cooper’s home was completely destroyed in the torrent of time, and his only support was Brand, so he set foot in the vast universe The journey to find Brand.

Is this the reunion ending?

Or a sad ending?

Graham can’t find an accurate way to express it, just like when he watched “Crazy in Love”: they are still together after all, but they don’t seem to belong to each other anymore.

What is the so-called home?

It should be the space constructed by the bonds between people, where the memories and the present that belong to each other exist. The casting of each “today” finally constitutes a future that belongs to both itself and each other. They still have traces of each other.

But if this bond is irreversibly divided and alienated by time and space, then does home still exist?

People are still those people; but things are no longer those things.

Further, are those memories that belong to human beings real?

Cooper’s memory is real, and Murphy’s memory is also real, but in the “one hour equals seven years” reversal of the black hole’s gravity, Cooper and Murphy’s memory of each other has undergone a huge dislocation In the end, they both became the phantom in each other’s memory

and Murphy in Cooper’s memory, still eight years old, she didn’t even understand Einstein’s theory of relativity, and he had to go back to his daughter, because that is his promise.

Cooper in Murphy’s memory is still thirty-one years old, absent-minded because of the death of his wife and the turning point of his career. She believes that her father will definitely come back, because he promised her.

Cooper in reality,

He is still less than thirty-five years old, and he has finally returned home after experiencing the thrill of interstellar travel, but the world he knows has been completely destroyed. So, is his “existence” still a real existence?

Or is he a wandering soul floating in space?

In reality, Murphy, who is 101 years old, has a huge family of her own, and became a hero admired by everyone in the space station. She still remembers her childhood memories of the farm, but it was already 80 years away. Years ago, so, is her “memory” still true?

Cooper and Murphy are still the family members who care about each other the most, but they are strangers who don’t know each other because they both missed each other’s most thrilling years, and the memories and commitments that were once deeply buried in their minds, It has also become a symbol in the mirage.

So, does the “home” defined by Cooper and Murphy still exist?

Murphy chose to embrace death in front of her family. She was no longer Cooper’s daughter, but the head of the entire family. She had her own support; Cooper, who was alone, went to space to find the only one with her. Partners who have experienced interstellar travel, but do the bonds they established through time and space still have their original meaning?

Brand, can it be Cooper’s home?

At the end of time travel, will they end up alone?

Is it the same for all human beings, they come alone and walk alone, this road of life, in the end, will eventually go down on their own, all the fetters and all the homes are actually just greed and extravagance?

Everyone knows that time is powerful and ruthless, but it doesn’t seem very real or accurate. Is there a kind of emotion that can overcome time and space and exist?

It was as if the connection between Cooper and Murphy completed the communication through the five-dimensional space, allowing the other party to return to each other again.

“Love”, this powerful force is indelible and unstoppable by time, it can overcome everything and build bridges and fetters between each other; but… is it really so?

When the time is still reversed and distorted, when the theory of time relativity leaves indelible traces on each other’s physical and neural levels, can “love” still maintain its original freshness and vitality?

Cooper still loves his daughter.

Murphy also still loves his father.

It seems that the bond has never been erased; but in the social and ethical framework, in the long run of time, they have been destined to be unable to accompany each other.

All life, all objects, all deeds…even all emotions and memories, whether it is physical or spiritual, will eventually be turned into powder under the huge effect of time, and will eventually cease to exist, then, at this time What should humans do?

Are humans all alone after all?

About time.

About affection.

About bondage.

About home.

about social structures.

About Interstellar.

About loneliness, about hope, about commitment, about the future, about survival, about choice, about life, about the universe…and, about yourself.

Under the vastness of time and the universe, the insignificance of human beings has been magnified to the extreme, and even began to feel a sense of helplessness, and then fell into confusion and confusion, unable to extricate themselves.

Countless thoughts are surging in my mind one after another, one after another, all of them are scrambling to the outside world, but all the thoughts are question marks. One problem has not been solved in time, and then another one pops up. The questions piled up one after the other, and finally got stuck in a pile of question marks, so that there was no way to react at all, so I just sat on the seat in the auditorium.

Graham knows that he needs a little time, a little time to calm down, and a lot of time to digest. The theme of this film is family love, but /mother/body is “time”. The power of time has been amplified to the extreme, creating endless possibilities.

Even deeper and more complicated than Inception.

The first viewing of the movie has not been fully finished and the subtitles of the behind-the-scenes staff have not yet been shown, but now Graham can’t wait to watch the second time, and he has a hunch that he may need to watch the third time. Even the fourth time, because there are too many question marks in my mind.

But the difference is that it’s not because you can’t understand it. In fact, the core theoretical knowledge of “Interstellar” is not so complicated. Even if you don’t fully understand it, it will not affect the understanding of the movie. This is more down-to-earth than “Inception”. ; It is precisely because I understand it that I need more time and more details to help myself complete the reflection. Repeatedly watching the film is for my own thinking, but also to really enjoy it.

“Time”, just this one theme, can be derived from countless side branches; what’s more, Graham has another reason to go to the cinema again, Renly

Hall.

The whole movie is grand and majestic, vast and profound, pushing the power of time and space to the extreme. Every frame of the picture is magnificent and exquisitely stunning, but what is always lingering in Graham’s mind is Renly’s eyes:

The reluctance and sadness in his eyes when he bid farewell to Murphy and left Earth; the sorrow and bitterness in his eyes when he realized that he had missed twenty-three years after returning from Planet Miller; After detonation, when it fell into a high-speed rotation and was about to be destroyed and had to make a desperate attempt, the firmness and determination in his eyes; when the Ranger separated from the Stand and bid farewell to Brand forever, the gentleness and firmness in his eyes; The loneliness and hope in my eyes when I leave the space station and embark on a journey when the end is coming…

Everything, everything is about the eyes.

Those intricate emotions, Renly did not use too many fancy skills to decorate and interpret, just to complete the transmission through a look, to carve out the beliefs deep in the heart, UU Kanshu www.sonicmtl.com invisible. The arc of the character’s growth is outlined in the audience’s mind, and the emotion and shock slowly permeate through it.

No matter how grand and majestic the picture, no matter how shocking and moving the story is, Graham will never forget Renly’s eyes, the eyes of a father, the eyes of an ordinary person, the eyes of a human being, not a hero or a great man , but was able to break all his armor with ease, hitting the softest part of his heart mercilessly.

The end credits are still rolling slowly, and the thoughts in Graham’s mind are still surging continuously, and it is estimated that it will not stop for the next 48 hours, but when the lights in the auditorium slowly turned on, Graham’s thoughts continued to flow. Ham finally broke free from the sea of countless question marks and realized again that this was the premiere scene of “Interstellar”, and they had just finished admiring this rare masterpiece of emotional resonance, the excitement and excitement were like this The blowout erupted.

Stand up and applaud.

These two simple actions showed all the excitement and happiness in Graham’s chest vividly and vividly. The smile at the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but raise a big arc. He likes such moments. To be precise, he loves it. Moments like this, because the movie makes him feel incredibly real.
