Chapter 711 Scene 711 The Glory of Faith
Does the god of fate exist? Will you believe him? This is a question on everyone's mind in the theater.
And the on-screen Pie believes in God and science, he follows his father's words, strictly follows the lifesaving guidelines, he tames Richard Parker, reoccupies his lifeboat, becomes the dominant player in the area, day after day, survives with great difficulty.
If it weren't for the beast Richard Parker, Pie wouldn't have survived, everyone has such a beast in their hearts, when you banish it from your heart, it may hurt others and eat yourself, when you keep it in your heart, everything is quiet, the fragrance of roses keeps you awake at all times, and you can move forward bravely.
But following the "science" can only keep Pie alive, but it still can't save him......
While all the cans of food were missing, and the hungry pie even wanted to get the attention of the tiger meat, a school of wonderful flying fish descended from the sky and scrambled to jump into the boat, much to his delight......
When he and the tiger were once again starved to prostration, and a storm like a catastrophe struck, and the hymn and the funeral song were played at the same time, he couldn't help but despair and angrily scolded God for having no eyes, madness and despair, and everything was exhausted......
But in the next scene, this deadly storm quietly took him to a fox island full of wonders......
The "god of fate" on the screen seemed to have been quietly watching all this, watching Pie rise and fall with the tiger, hovering on the edge of life and death several times.
The storm of despair brought hope for life, a paradise-like island, but it was a terrifying cannibal trap, and the moment the "god" gently flicked his fingers, who could tell whether it was a sly smile or a merciful pity on its face?
We can't, neither can the faction, no matter how the "god of fate" tests, the final choice can only be made in our own hearts, those superficial crises and luck, brought joy and despair, are only temporary passing clouds~~ The most important thing is that we go with the tide with the ups and downs of fate, or do we see our hearts clearly and unswervingly go in the true direction?
In the face of the unpredictable changes of the god of fate, only the brilliance of the heart can lead us to persevere, and the true belief is not the ethereal concept of the gods that others tell you, not the political ideology, and not the scientific laws that have been overthrown with the development of the times~~
True faith is honed in life, constantly reflecting and comprehending between the pain and thorns of life, not changing with the ups and downs of circumstances, and indestructible inner strength~~!!
True faith never lies in the external things that others teach, but in the true understanding of our own hearts~!
On the blue sea, Pi sits on a raft like an old monk, and off the screen, Pi takes the people in the theater to gradually go to his heart, floating in the waves, and starting another inner journey in the corridor of life.
When Pie left the fantasy island, the voice of the middle-aged Pie echoed in everyone's hearts before setting off again.
"No one has seen this floating island since, and there is no record of the tree, but if it hadn't been for that docking, I would have died long ago, and if I hadn't found that tooth, I would have lost myself and died alone.
Sometimes God seems to have abandoned me, but in fact, He has been watching me, seemingly indifferent to my suffering, but He has been watching me, and when I completely gave up hope, He gave me peace and told me to start again~"
In the end, I don't know if he was tested by the "gods" or finally spread mercy by the "gods", after a journey of 227 years, Pie finally saw the land, and everyone watched as Pie who reached the coast of Mexico walked slowly on the sand stall on the bottom of the sea with both hands, and everyone's hearts followed him......
At this moment, everyone's hearts were exhausted and dying like Pie's body, and they were afraid that Pi would drown in this shallow two-foot water, and the light of hope was so close ahead......
Pie struggled ashore and fell headlong on the sand, the sand was warm and soft, as if it had been pressed against God's cheeks, and everyone seemed to have a feeling that they were somewhere, watching it all with a satisfied smile in their eyes.
Pai's eyes looked at the blue sky, and people suddenly felt the peace in their hearts, and at this moment they seemed to really feel that the god who had been watching them in the film was smiling at them.
The huge theater is surprisingly quiet at the moment, and everyone is quiet in the soft music, and their hearts are suddenly a little reluctant...... Is this coming to an end? Is it going to be over so soon?
Brad Gray, the president of Paramount, looked at his watch and was surprised that 95 minutes had passed, as if it had only happened for a few minutes.
The Bengal tiger, which was based on Li Xiaole, stretched his limbs and walked along the coast, at the edge of the jungle, he stopped, everyone instinctively thought that he would look back at him, and waved his ears proudly to end the journey, but he walked into the jungle without looking back.
The emotional voice of the middle-aged pie began to sound: "Richard Parker, my fierce companion, the terrifying companion who kept me alive, this is gone from my life forever.
I wailed like a child, not because of the excitement of being rescued, although it was true, but because Richard Parker had left me and was gone...... I was heartbroken. ”
Seeing this scene, everyone was extremely sad with Pie, even more sad than the time Pie lost his whole family, because the tiger that accompanied him left him. At this moment of stepping on land, surrounded by humans who rescued him, Pi faced unprecedented loneliness, and it seemed that after completely leaving the horror and despair, and withdrawing from the unpredictable ocean, he had the strength to begin to grieve for what he had lost, and the departure of the Bengal Tiger made him realize how important it was for him to lose everything in this journey.
"My father was right, Richard Parker never treated me as a friend, and even though he went through so much, he still left without looking back, but I still believe that there is something in their eyes that is beyond the reflection, I am sure, I can feel it, even if I can't prove it.
I lost so much, my family, the zoo, India, Ananti, that part of my life in India was like a drama, the play was scattered, but the most heart-wrenching thing was that I couldn't say goodbye properly, and I never had the opportunity to thank my father, thank him for everything he taught me, and tell him that without his teachings, I would not have survived...... Although Richard Parker is a tiger, I want to tell him 'it's all over, we survived, thank you for saving my life, I love you, Richard Parker, you will always be in my heart, but I can't be with you anymore'"
Life is like this, whether you want to or not, you will grow up slowly, watch your heart metamorphose, and become a better person, but who doesn't miss the once bad self?
From the amazing fantasy journey to the peace of mind, the story should be over here, the people in the theater are relieved, let go of their fluctuating hearts, Spielberg can't help but whisper to his old friend George Lucas, "What do you think?" ”
"Would you be mad if I said it was about the same as your Schindler's List, Steven?" George Lucas replied, looking at him earnestly.
"I think so too." Spielberg lamented, "Li Xiaole has a very different perspective than we do, and I have never seen a movie like this. ”
Yes, this movie is so wonderful that people can't take their eyes off for a moment, a full 102 minutes have passed, but everyone is still lingering, unwilling to end the journey, except for the executives of the six major studios with stiff faces, most of them are very reluctant to see the subtitles rise.
Cork was full of gloom and cursed something in a low voice, as if he was complaining that his son-in-law Canon had not investigated anything beforehand, and found that the movie was so good, but Canon kept his head down, and his whole body was trembling slightly.
He seemed to remember the scene when he first met Li Xiaole in China, when he was rarely dumbfounded by him, and although he made good movies at that time, he was only one of the second-tier directors that Hollywood considered to be notable.
Even if he filmed "Iron Man" and planned the "Avengers series", many industry insiders still think that the Chinese director is stained with the light of Marvel, after all, the success of the original comics is there, and the combination of Iron Man plus Tom Cruise and Stallone is not a big surprise.
But after today, not only him, Canon, but also everyone at the scene will look at Li Xiaole differently, because he has shown unprecedented strength in this movie, and has been sublimated to another level that surpasses ordinary Hollywood directors.
He can do without stars, without a wonderful plot, without using eye-catching zombies, and in the apocalypse, all he can do is point the camera at an ordinary Indian child, an imaginary tiger, or even a sea, and he can make the screen show amazing charm.
The films created by Li Xiaole have reached the height of real "art", just like Van Gogh, holding an ordinary pen that cannot be used in ordinary times, drawing a "wooden stool" that can be seen everywhere, which can make people intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
