What is life? What is death? It can be rhetorical literature, a complex scientific concept, it can be religion or philosophy, and we have too many different answers.
Haruki Murakami's "Death is not the opposite of life" and the death is a comma in the play, they are both trying to write their footnotes for death in their own way.
Each of us can't avoid death, between life and death, sometimes it is a thought difference, I think when death comes, I will face death calmly, at least the choice is in my hands, so that it seems that death is not so terrible.
"Leaving The Self Out of Space" is the work of Director Mike, and it is also a quiet, almost cruel film. From the perspective of a unique cancer patient, he conveyed the true meaning of life to the audience: although life is limited, there are traces of existence, and you have experienced loss before you know how to cherish.
The heroine of the story, Vivian, lives an enviable life, she not only has the beauty of amazing people, but also a doctor; perhaps seeing here, you will yearn for Vivian's talent and wisdom to live a life, but life is always cruel, you have too many things, reality will mercilessly take away some of you.
For Vivian, she finally took root in this society with her own efforts, but before she could stop, the countdown to death had already filled her mind, and the ruthlessness of the illness was enough to destroy a person who was in a fancy age.
Although the whole film is less than 100 minutes, under the director's slow motion, the theme of the whole film is gradually revealed, and when I see Vivian in the hospital bed like a mallet, all words seem extremely weak in front of her.
All of this needs to find the answer in my life, that scene, still makes me unforgettable, the former strong woman Vivian in the torment of illness, but also lost her self-confidence. The godless pupils also seem to convey their own helplessness, without a single line, but people are suffocating and depressed.
It turns out that when death is revealed on the screen, how shocking it is, even the most fearless people will retreat in the face of this sense of reality.
Especially during the eight-month treatment period, Vivian's eyes of the world is extremely quiet, everything in the world seems to be bleak, and her fiery heart is gradually swallowed up by death in this long wait for death.
Despite the attempts people to comfort her: don't be afraid, everything will be fine. But Vivian always knew that her illness would not heal, and even in the extreme panic, Vivian would say to herself: "I want to hide, hide from God" She tried to curl up her body, only hoping that death would not take her immediately.
In Vivian's hellish life, the presence of a person also brings light to her miserable life.
The professor, who once had countless scenery, became a patient who suffered from illness, and Vivian also suffered from the indifference of human nature during the treatment.
In this experiment, the male doctor did not treat Vivian as a person, and in several contacts, he focused more on the patient than on the needs of the patient itself. This is also the first time that Vivian feels helplessness, perhaps the pain is terrible, but in the face of human indifference, it also seems too late.
Fortunately, Vivian met the head nurse, a kind woman who was willing to give the former professor a small dignity, and she always encouraged Vivian to persevere and not to give up, and because of the kindness of the head nurse, Vivian once again ignited the hope of life.
In the film, the head nurse asks Vivian: "Does the role of this morphine make the eyelids heavy?" This simple sentence made Vivian laugh, which was the only time she laughed in the whole film.
Because Vivian felt the feeling of being a teacher again, in the relationship with the head nurse, she also finally realized her own value, for vivian to be strong, what she needs most is to be affirmed and respected.
At the end of the story, the old professor comes to the hospital to visit Vivian, on the verge of death, the poem is not used, the greeting is superfluous, only the moans of the patients are left in the huge ward, and the sadness in the eyes of the visitors is enough to reflect Vivian's struggle, she wants to live, and hopes that life will bloom again.
In the past eight months, she has fallen down again and again, and she has risen again and again, but loneliness has always been with her, but when the long-lost professor appeared like a loving mother, the grievances and vulnerabilities she had suffered also poured out, curled up in the arms of the professor like a child, and this warmth also made Vivian no longer afraid of death.
Finally, Vivian fell asleep peacefully, and perhaps for her, rather than fearing death, she chose to face death, at least, this time, she was able to bring her life to a successful conclusion.
Although I was only briefly enlightened, I had already achieved eternal life. Although Death still took her, for life, is death a comma or a full stop? Ashford said, life, death, eternal life, they are separated by a little comma, just after a nap, we will live forever.
Watching the whole film has a sense of depression, is to lament the fragility of life, but also to carry out self-redemption, life and death is a grand topic, I think no one can be qualified to stand in the perspective of life to talk about the experience of death.
This may be the idea that the whole film is trying to convey: we fear death and talk about death, which is itself a great contradiction.
For us ordinary people, we may not be able to have a deep understanding of life and death, but we can cherish the life we have now and give extraordinary meaning to life when we enjoy the perception of life. Instead of being passive, we are longing for life, we are also longing for the meaning of life, and throughout our lives, we are just people who strive to survive, hoping that death can come slowly.
