He got out of the car. The door was not electric. There was a bang when the door was closed. The yellow light flashed twice. The car was locked. He held his bag and said hello to the security guard in the underground garage.

"Brother, are you working the night shift tonight?"

"Ah, Lao Li was sick and took two days off. I worked the night shift for him for two days and came back so late?"

"Went to watch a movie."

After a few simple exchanges, he pressed the elevator. While waiting, he suddenly found that the cigarette was still in his pocket. He could only turn back, throw the cigarette and lighter into the car, and made another round trip. He smiled at the security guard. When I got on the elevator, I still didn't forget to put a few pieces of chewing gum in my mouth.

He was originally a young man from a small town, and became a white-collar worker in the provincial capital in his twenties. It was not until he was in his thirties, and had a family and a wife, that he bravely took another step and came to the imperial capital to become a professional. film critic.

Sometimes he wonders why he didn't dare to step out until he was in his thirties, but most of the time he is thankful that at least he stepped out and started his favorite career.

It wasn't until he worked for a period of time that he slowly realized that when he would come and when he would leave, there were certain decisions. Without the experience of watching movies for more than thirty years, he would not have been able to find this job. When he was in his twenties, In the future, most of the time it will go against your dreams, so there is no need to regret it, because everything is just right.

The work is more tiring than the work in the provincial capital, and the money he can save may not be more than that in the provincial capital, but it is still what he likes to do. For example, he went home after watching a movie at half past eleven tonight. Compared with working overtime and writing copywriting, It was so comfortable at half past eleven.

Opening the door, he found that this small room, which required two-thirds of his salary, contained his two sweethearts, which made him feel at ease without even having to see them.

There was no light in the room. My wife had a habit of snoring when she was pregnant. The sound was loud enough to be heard from the living room. She put on her slippers, took a glass of water, drank half the glass, refilled it, and placed it on the computer desk. Next, also turn on the computer.

Taking advantage of this time, he tiptoed into the bedroom. His wife was still awake. In the crib next to him, the child was sleeping peacefully. He sat next to his wife, leaned over and put his cheek against his forehead.

"Hmm~ You're back?"

"Um."

Needless to say, the soft hand searched for the hand on his body, and finally got into the wide palm, absorbing his warmth, and she fell asleep again, having a slight slumber again.

After a few minutes, he gently pulled out his hand, walked to the crib, and turned the child's lying body sideways. The child had slept on a buckwheat hull pillow with the back of his head flat. No matter who got up at night, the couple would always sleep on it. The child needs to be turned over again.

After everything was stable, he left, closed the door, sat in front of the computer, turned on the eye protection lamp, took out the notebook from his backpack, turned over two pages, thought for two seconds, opened the document, and started writing.

But this time, his film review signature is finally no longer a nickname.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lupo..."

"Today, "Exile" has just been released. As Lu Ze's return work after four years, many fans, including me, have expressed great expectations, but Lu Ze still did not disappoint us, handing over a film that can An answer that satisfies all movie fans. The concept of this movie is very profound. Even if I watched it three times, I still didn’t understand the movie thoroughly. I can only talk about it briefly. The content is slightly spoiled. I apologize if I have any different opinions. , we can discuss it together.”

"Before that, I would like to educate those students who don't know much about directors and shooting directors. The directors of "Exile" are the Mendeleev brothers from Russia. As the eldest brother, Lucas Mendeleev also serves as director. became the filming director of this film.”

"If you don't count the short film they shot, this film should be regarded as the debut of the two people. This is also what surprised me, whether it is the story rhythm, set setting, lens movement, color cues, or final editing , are all of absolute first-class quality. Even though they have served as assistant directors and guides for many films such as "The Past", they are not at the helm of the film after all. It takes a lot of hard work to have such creativity. The talent is absolutely top-notch.”

"The most important thing is that the first-class director, first-class cinematographer and first-class script, the three major elements that make a classic movie all serve Lu Ze alone. Four-fifths of the entire movie is given to Lu Ze, and other human characters It is relatively weakened, with the protagonist as the main perspective, interspersed with small episodes, and pieced together into a complete Leo's life."

"The advantage is that it highlights the protagonist's emotions, makes the protagonist's character full and penetrating, and weakens the plot of the supporting characters, allowing the audience to evaluate the story itself from an objective perspective. Movies with such a pace are particularly suitable for praising actors, but the shortcomings are obvious, and the leading actor's acting skills are not good. This will cause people to fail to establish the relationship, which will lead to the collapse of the entire film. Of course, in Lu Ze's works, such a thing is impossible, because the protagonist of this film is only slightly introverted and socially fearful, and the interpretation difficulty is not suitable for Lu Ze. For an actor of Ze's level, it's basically zero."

"All in all, this is a movie that only serves Lu Ze. All the audience's perceptions are led by Lu Ze. In comparison, the special effects that were talked about more in the short review seem less important. Of course, I didn't say the special effects. Sorry, the visual effects are of course great and can be said to be beautiful, but as something that can be made with a lot of money, compared to Lu Ze's interpretation, it lacks a little bit of soul, like The difference between a painting made by an artist’s hand and a mechanical print.”

"Lu Ze's performance does not need to be overly evaluated. It is still good. Although there is nothing particularly emotional in this movie that requires an actor to express, so Lu Ze showed the basic skills of an actor, but he is only called based on basic skills. The content of the entire movie can bring the audience into the plot very deeply. It is self-evident that Lu Ze is great and his basic skills are really solid! Okay, let’s cut the nonsense and go directly to the topic and talk about the content of the movie.”

"At first I thought "Exile" was just an ordinary desert island movie, similar to "Cast Away," but there are so many movies of this type that it's hard to make any innovations, so my expectations were average, because "Cast Away" is the masterpiece of this genre in my mind, and it will be difficult for the latter to beat it."

"But after I got to the cinema, I was dumbfounded. The plot of desert island survival is only about 40 minutes. I realized then that the first 40 minutes of the movie was just a foreshadowing, but what is going on later? I couldn't guess at all. After all, such themes revolve around the spiritual core of tenacious survival, and the description of life after rescue is light. The plot of "Exile" exceeds my understanding of this genre."

"Then, I discovered that this movie, which I thought was a parody of Cast Away, was a complete anti-Cast Away movie, a complete refutation of Cast Away."

"Chuck became a hero after returning to human society, and his social status remained unchanged, while Leo became a beast in the eyes of humans. Even though he was also beautified into a so-called legend, the way people treated him and that The emotions shown in the eyes don't lie, and Leo's social status has suffered an extreme decline."

"After Chuck met Kelly, the classic scene of kissing in the rain was very beautiful. It proved that the two still suddenly loved each other deeply, but they had to separate due to family pressure. The so-called love was not available, but what about Leo? I I believe Tina still has love in her heart. After all, she fainted like Kelly and shed tears after receiving the call that Leo was alive, but what to do?"

"Maybe you would say that it is because of the existence of children that Tina and Kelly have completely different performances, but I don't think this has much to do with children. Instead, the concepts put forward in "Exile" are more Persuasiveness, people are afraid of episodes in their lives, joy is okay, but sad episodes will make people eager to get back on track."

"Without "Exile", I would have felt that the relationship between the protagonist and the heroine in "Cast Away" was handled very well. But now, recalling that night of heavy rain again, I feel that it has become too false and beautiful."

"It's also a theme about living on a desert island for many years, but the two protagonists are treated very differently by society after returning to human society. If it were all of you here, which ending would you believe would actually happen?"

"It's still a problem with society's attitude towards Leo. Even if he is beautified into a legend, his life history has been erased. After all, people will only label the most commendable experiences of a single individual, just like criminals, regardless of You are a businessman, a highly educated person, or a scientist. As long as you go to prison, when you think of him, what is the first label you put on him? He has been in prison, right?"

"At the same time, the nature of society will make people unable to help but isolate people with different circumstances. I will also subconsciously stay away from prisoners. This is the intolerance of society, but even prisoners will have circles, but what about Leo? Where can you find another person who has lived on a desert island for many years? So the result is that he has no friends, no job, and no family, and is even ostracized to the margins of society. In the eyes of ordinary people, this man who even struggles to speak gradually develops a close relationship with the beast. Got the equal sign.”

"There is a scene with a deep metaphor that I must tell everyone about, which is the dog on the beach. Many people may regard this scene as an ordinary communication with animals and don't pay much attention to it, but this scene describes the scene in detail. The last scene is the best proof of Austria's true social portrayal. Leo is playing with a dog. The two shadows on the ground cannot tell which is a human and which is a dog. It can be understood that Leo is the dog and the dog is Leo.”

"Think about the way the dog moves and behaves. At first the dog wants food because it wants to survive, so Leo is looking for a job and he also wants to survive. Then he looks at other dogs playing Frisbee with a desire to participate in his eyes. But after Leo bought the Frisbee, he didn't want to play with it anymore. The same was true for Leo. He wanted to seek social recognition, gain recognition from others, and get rid of the reputation of a savage, but he couldn't bear to accept his own. He (it) just wants to be a stutterer and has no other aspirations. Unless there are external things that can stimulate him (it), he (it) will take action. So after Leo bit the Frisbee, the dog also played together, and when the program staff promised to give Leo fifty thousand yuan, he also agreed."

"And when a person and a dog parted ways at the pier, why didn't the dog follow Leo? Some friends said it was waiting for the owner to take it home, but I don't think so. This scene seems to be a metaphor. People are people after all, and dogs are After all, he is a dog. The dog regards Leo as a friend, but not as his own kind, so he will not accept Leo's help. After the invitation was rejected, Leo left directly without even looking back. It seemed like he He also understands the boundaries and distance between humans and animals. At this moment, he is still on the side of humans, and the subsequent lobster plot also proves it."

"The following plot, including interviews on the show and James's completely different emotional changes in his treatment of children and animals, distinguishes the inharmonious relationship between races at every moment, emphasizing the opposition between races, various skin colors There is a gap between people, and there is a gap between people and lobsters. What impressed me deeply was the sentence: "Just because I am a human, I eat lobsters." At that moment, the animal protectors I met seemed to Became a lobster.”

"Then, it focused on the friendly behavior of people of the same race and common thoughts. For example, the owner of the lobster restaurant wanted to treat Leo to eat lobster. The staff of the program showed compassion and helped Leo find a job. This It’s all good feelings that come from a sense of identity.”

"Following this is a series of themes about what attitude should be taken to protect animals. The attitude expressed in the movie is something I agree with. If killing is for food, then it should be killed. If killing is for profit, then it should be protected. So Then I thought about it, wasn’t it that I was firmly standing on the human side?”

"As for Leo, he wants to stand on the human side, but in the human group, he is an alien and is not tolerated by society. This is the origin of his loneliness and social fear, until the second alien appears, that is bapa.”

"I am convinced that Leo's feelings for Bapa did not heat up quickly, but gradually developed feelings after he became more and more intelligent. It is not so much feelings, but a sense of sympathy and sympathy for each other. Animals that survive in human society, animals survive in society. Both of them are suffering because of this, and this suffering can only be understood by the other party."

"Am I an animal or a human being?"

"Am I a human or an animal?"

"The last two questions have made me think deeply, but it is difficult to give an answer. If you stick to the appearance, the answer is obvious, just like James's affirmative answer, but if you look into the soul, I believe that no one can Without an answer, we will ultimately isolate them, respond with indifference and hostility, and reconnect with racial opposition."

"So it's not surprising that the two are depressed, so one commits suicide and the other exiles himself, giving up his identity as a human being and living with low-IQ animals, because low-IQ animals don't care whether you are a human or an animal, they are both. I am escaping, escaping from myself has become a completely different fact."

"Then, a very critical question is, what does that whale represent? There are too many solutions to this question. I will only tell you what I think the answer is. The protagonist capsized because of it, and then appeared in a violent storm. Then It appeared again when the protagonist was rescued, and the last time it appeared was when Leo returned to the ocean."

"I'm not sure whether it really exists, because the green vest that flashed at the end of the movie gave me huge doubts. But if it really exists, then refer to the early characters, who will soon get it Lunch’s oceanography professor, Giles Roynes, actually has something in common with Leo, which is the yearning for the ocean that can be seen in his eyes.”

"Not just the two of them, everyone on the sunken Fielder loves the ocean. But at the same time, when they reach uninhabited waters, everyone's eyes will show fear, so whales are what they are pursuing. The epitome of fear, when it is afraid, it jumps out of the sea and destroys everyone who may still survive. But when you yearn for it, what you see is the beautiful scenery when it jumps out of the sea. Even after Leo is rescued, That meeting with the whale, at that time, Leo would also be reluctant to give up. Just like what the old man and the sea said, everything is killing each other. Fishing will kill me, but it will also feed me. Got me."

"Finally, the green vest that I almost missed is also the most controversial topic at present. The green vest was what Leo was wearing when he was killed, which makes two ideas contradictory."

"Whether Leo is alive and experiencing all this in real life, or is it the result he imagined before his death? In fact, we don't need to worry too much about whether what Leo experienced is real, because it happens to be an open ending that makes this movie It’s not just about one taste, but as a fan, I’m totally enamored with the script Mitch wrote.”

"Each ending will change the overall meaning of the movie, just like eating hot pot with different sauces. Whatever you dip it in will taste different. Let's make the simplest guess as to whether Leo is dead or alive. As for a more detailed analysis, for example, whether Leo died in a shipwreck or from radiation, we will not discuss it. If all the analysis is completed, watching the movie will not be so fun. "Exile" was released first God, if I tell you the truth, other movie fans won’t be able to watch it.”

"If you are alive, then there is nothing to say about everything you have experienced. These are all real. The authentic taste of hot pot. What you see is what the movie wants to say. But what if you are dead? Do racial issues exist? Yes! Same race! Do the friendly feelings between them really exist? Yes! Does the battle between animal rights activists and carnivores exist? Yes!"

"Does Leo's death and life have an impact on the movie? Yes! So what is fake? Here comes the sauce with a different taste. Friends, please listen up. If Leo dies, then the core of this movie will Being changed, the fantasy version of "Exile" will refute the ideas expressed in the real version of "Exile". It is impossible for humans to be friends with animals, and mutual hostility and killing will continue. After all..."

“How can humans hear the voices of animals?”
