《Supernova》 - The rescuer and the saved
Sam is my Savior," Sam read from tusk.
Sam is his Savior.
But before he forgets everything, Sam tries his best to arrange everything. He takes him back to his childhood home, finds all his family and friends, and leaves behind a concert and a dog. He hopes that even if he forgets everything and leaves, Sam will be safe. Who are the rescuers and the rescued? However, in any case, loss and forgetting, living and mourning should not exist at the same time.
The whole film, all aspects are integrated, it should be so natural. The two of them, the dog, the scenery, the RV, the music, the fire in the closet, the debris and food on the ground, the emotion of relying on each other, the only, the rest, the only, looking back, these emotions that can not be expressed in words, can only look at the two of them and feel, they talk, hug, say goodbye, cry, sob, and take advantage of the moonlight outside the window, the last desire The desire of, and the breath of.
All kinds of intimate actions, tacit eyes, familiar jokes and teasing, completely unable to resist. Especially the tired, wronged, soft hearted, angry, denied, struggling and sour face uncle, eager to use everything to seize what he has.
The lines are very good, and they need acting skills. Fortunately, the two of them hold up completely, especially in the dinner scene after finding out the truth, the monologue and intermittent tears of Uncle Yan, which are completely and heartbreaking.
Tusk and Sam's sister's daughter are chatting on the couch when they notice the beginning of the film. In the dark, stars gradually light up, one of them suddenly becomes brighter, and then slowly disappears. This is the explosion of supernova. Tusk doesn't want to be forgotten, just wants to shine, and then suddenly disappears. Sam should and can only remember this flash moment.
The rhythm of the whole movie is very slow, and the story is very simple. The interaction between the two people and the scenery along the way account for most of the time. The performance of the two veteran dramatists is really moving. One and a half hours, warm and heavy, full of sadness. Aging, forgetting, disease, farewell. These are the topics that we are always avoiding but will eventually face. Two people love so much, but they can't match the fate.
Fear, but still willing to accompany you to your last moment; also know, but do not want to become a burden to you; also willing to let everyone remember the best me. The film uses a very light brush to write down too many struggling choices of ethical fate, and uses heartbreaking confession to dye all these with a strong color of sadness.
I don't dare to think about things after I am old. To be honest, I really don't know how to face them. And the world is changeable, who knows his future life will be what kind of direction. Anyway, I only wish there would be a person who would be brave because of me and also make me brave at that time.
Selfish genes and emotional fetters are the two forces of human nature. It seems that neither way can be the best way to say goodbye on the way to the terminus destined to be heartbreaking.
Supernova refers to a violent explosion of some stars near the end of their evolution. This process is extremely bright, and the sudden electromagnetic radiation in the process can illuminate the whole galaxy. The film with this title tells and discusses the story of the end of life in a small, usual and quiet way.
Selfish genes allow you to temporarily forget the suffering of him in ICU, and full of hope that he can recover. Emotional fetters make it impossible for you to accept the possibility of his leaving, because it will even deprive you of the possibility of a good farewell. Yes, death is truth, cruelty.
It has nothing to do with elegance and dignity. It is often mixed with the smell of medicine in the air, the dryness in the mouth and the struggle in the heart. You want him to live as long as he can until the end. However, there is no way to have the best of both worlds on the road destined to pass the heartbreak destination. Supernova, a quiet movie, may be forgotten in this award season, but the discussion of how to face death is particularly important at this moment.
What's the last goodbye you want? Smile with tears or endless silence.
