Amazon has booked three teen-themed dramas, one of which is "Wilderness". It is set in the story of nine young girls who are accidentally stranded on a desert island.
The nine girls travel to Hawaii for a retreat called "Eve's Dawn." The two-day event is open to women and aims to help women learn and grow. Unexpectedly, the accident suddenly occurred, the plane crashed, and everyone fell into the sea. Fortunately, they all saved their lives, and the nine girls eventually came to an island.
Does this setting remind you of an ancient mythological drama? Yes, a plane crash and a desert island are the routines of "Lost". Not only the setting, but even the later characters recall their previous lives.
Of course, the screenwriter can't take J. J. Abrams' notebook was copied. Compared to Lost, this "Wilderness" is less ambitious, and the main characters are reduced to only a few.
And in the first episode, several important information is revealed:
1. Some of the girls have been rescued.
2. The plane crash was not an accident, but man-made. Their lives on the island are monitored 24 hours a day.
It's just that J· J. Abrams famously only dug pits and did not fill pits. Anyway, first dig a bottomless pit for you, attract the audience to jump down by themselves, and fill the pit by the audience's own imagination. 1UCYZ1 and "Wilderness" lowered the pattern, slowly to say a story to say the whole thing made Abrams much better.
Earlier mentioned that nine young girls are wandering on a desert island, and the title is eight. Shortly after landing on the island, one of the Asians named Janet died of his injuries.
There is a line in "Happy Cutting People": I am gay, you are black, we are doomed. In this way, he joked that the first person to die in the film and television drama was often black or gay. It seems that there are no Asians in "Happy Cutting People"...
"Wilderness" is mainly narrated according to three timelines. It is now a few rescued girls who recount what happened on the island, which used to be their life on the island. The earlier line of memories is to recall the state of life before coming to the island.
Many people will criticize the past life as too boring. It is true that a large number of memories do affect the main plot and are tedious, but this memory makes several girls very three-dimensional, and the characters become plump and vivid.
Sisters Rachel and Nora from New York. You might resent Rachel for some of her actions, and she'll inexplicably blame others, yelling at Leah just because she didn't get the call in time, spitting at Janet's burial site, venting her anger everywhere.
But Rachel's memories tell us that she was actually a very hard-working diver. As an athlete, she works harder than anyone. She can improve her physical fitness through exercise, reduce body fat, and control her body by controlling her diet. Even eating on the phone to say, self-discipline to the point of almost perverted.
But there was one thing she could never change — height. So even if she works a hundred times harder than others and doesn't have an innate advantage, she's doomed to fail.
The most frustrating thing is that even though Rachel tried so hard, she made a mistake in a crucial game. Her career also came to an end.
Rachel ascended to the highest point of the island step by step, just as she had walked step by step to the diving platform. What was thought to be a step towards success was finally ushered in by an abyss that could not be seen at a glance. How can we keep our sanity, how can we not collapse.
Only these vast memories can you empathize with these girls.
Whether it's Leah or Martha or Fatin, everyone has an extremely difficult past. At first you may hate everyone, but when you get to know them, you can't hate them.
Not non-black. The screenwriter has created us one angel and another combination of demons and created one vivid and real character after another. If you can calm down and enter their world, you can definitely feel the inner world of each character.
It's just that in today's fast-paced society, few people can calm down and enjoy a slower-paced American drama. "Wilderness" is excellent. Whether it is a solid script and acting skills, or the metaphor of "Eve's dawn, Adam's dusk", it is the highlight of this play.
"Truman's World" is an exploration of truth and hypocrisy, a control and rebellion of human nature, a metaphor and satire of the manipulation and surveillance of the media.
"Wilderness" can express the awakening of women and reflect on various social phenomena on the basis of the concept of "Truman's World", and its ideological depth is far beyond other youth dramas.
