hey! How are you?
Here's the little old man watching the film.
Today, Little Old Fu and everyone talk about the movie "Twelve Monkeys",
Speaking of this movie, I still think about it because I saw this movie poster on the photo of a star photography enthusiast.
Will be because of curiosity to find resources to see, not to mention the quality of other movies is absolutely leveraged.
There are many movies that play with time like "Twelve Monkeys", but everyone has their own style.
However, "Twelve Monkeys" is different from other movies and has its own unique charm in it.
If you can't change your destiny, why not smell the flowers. "Twelve Monkeys", released in 1995, has a Douban score of 8.2 points.
The movie "Twelve Monkeys" is a film about or explores time and space. This kind of movie is generally based on suspense as a selling point, often can attract the viewer into the plot, so the rhythm of the movie is particularly important, "Twelve Monkeys" is such a tightly paced, suspenseful movie.
The tone of "Twelve Monkeys" is gray and messy, and the atmosphere is the same. And there are many clues, a mess, and people are confused. The whole movie unveils the mystery step by step, which makes people feel quite enlightened. From the beginning to the end, until the ending, this film did not let me breathe well, although there was no fierce fight, there was no horror and bloody scenes, but the audience was all entangled in their hearts to watch it. That's what the director does.
The film has three main characters, Bruce Willis, Brad Pitt, and Madeleine Stowe. Bruce Willis played the role of a natural performance, strength type, reckless type, low IQ, delirious, and even unable to distinguish between reality and illusion. Brad Pitt is a very good half-crazy person, and like Fight Club, his performance in this film is also very exciting, attracting a lot of attention. The heroine is beautiful and charming, and has a unique charm.
"Twelve Monkeys" is mainly about 5 billion people who died from a deadly virus in 1996, and only a few survived. The surviving humans were forced to live underground ever since. In 2035, scientists sent prisoner James back to 1996 to investigate the source of the virus, and the only clue was the mysterious "12 Monkey Army." But he made the mistake of being put in a mental hospital as a madman in 1990. There he meets the insane Jeffery, as well as the psychiatrist Kathryn. He did not know that his every word and deed was one of the causes of the destiny of mankind.
In 1990, James from the future inadvertently told the mad Jeffery that humans should be wiped out by the virus, but unexpectedly inspired Jeffery, the leader of the 12 Monkey Army in 1996. A man from a tragic future who tries to change history is the cause of the tragic history! In fact, the main theme of this film is that no matter how time and space are traveled, history will not change. People who travel through time and space are precisely the important factors that make history. This factor is implemented from beginning to end. Therefore, the protagonist will find that many of the "precious clues" of the future are left by his own shuttle back to the past. Quite ironic. Later, there was a model work "Time and Space Clues", starring Denzel Washington, adhering to this principle, but the film did not last to the end, and finally reunited. And "12 Monkeys" ends in a chilling way, making people feel like wooden chickens, and that's it? Nothing has changed, and sending people back from the future is actually an element of unfortunate history.
Traveling back and forth between different time and space, James was in a trance, and he was very nostalgic for the life on the ground, breathing fresh air. He even began to believe the words of the psychiatrist, that he was really schizophrenic, that the mission from the future was really his own illusion, which is quite creative in this film. Imagine if you could also travel between time and space with huge contrasts, you would also have such a confusion. In The Matrix, there are also characters who would rather indulge themselves in a beautiful dream.
Another clever point of this film is the mysterious "12 Monkey Army", this mysterious organization, the mysterious totem is like a cloud hanging over the audience's heart, and the audience's tense heart is firmly tied to the "12 Monkeys". Where to know, in fact, "12 monkeys" and the release of the virus has nothing to do with it. The unveiling of this suspense is shocking and ironic, because James deeply blames himself for inspiring Jeffery to establish "12 Monkeys", and is the culprit who destroyed humanity. Sometimes people just take their role too seriously, in fact, you are just a part of the earth, and any effort you make is carried out according to the established fate.
The eerie shooting scene at the beginning of the film is also interspersed many times in the film, and this clip is the main mystery that plagues the audience. When the last 1/3 of the organizational clues reveal the truth, the mystery is gradually solved. With about 20 minutes to go until the end of the film, I completely understood what was going on. This shot is a clue that makes a lot of strange lines and plots clear. It turns out that the beginning is the ending, and little James witnesses the shooting of himself as an adult from the future. Very interesting plot.
As mentioned above, James and Kathlyn tried to change the history of organizing the release of the virus. They don't understand that history doesn't change, and everything they do is precipitate the occurrence of established destiny. Future scientists understand this, so they gave James the task of tracing the source of the virus and did not stop it. After finding the source, at the end, the scientists themselves came out and came to 1996 to bring the virus sample back to 2035 for study. It turns out that all these actions are not to change history, not to prevent 5 billion people from dying, all this is just to get a sample of the source of the virus, fortunately, there are new advances in the prevention and control of the virus after 2035, this point is quite hidden, the last scene, the culprit who released the virus and the scientists from the future sit together--- the scientists must be 2035, not 1996, from the appearance age can be known.
Well, this issue of the little old Man watching the film is here, I hope you can like it.
