Transcendence is a film of depression and cure.

At the beginning of the film, a tree withered and finally turned into leaves, and the dynamic leaves constantly changed albert camus's famous saying.

And this famous saying also laid the tone of the film's gray depression, lack of pressure and painful struggle.

In the dictionary, separation means separation. The Chinese film title is translated into "detachment", which means that a person is not bound by tradition and dares to pursue self-worth.

And for the people in the movie Beyond, is it just to face and bear the bondage of tradition? Is the movie just self-salvation and self-pursuit?

Beyond is a feature film released in the United States in April, 20 1 1, directed by Tony Kaye and starring Adrien Brody and christina hendricks.

The film tells the story of a lonely substitute teacher, Henry bakht, who came to a rambling high school to teach, and saw the beautiful life and humanity in the world when he got along with students.

I want to confess that it took me a long time to express my feelings about such a phenomenal film that reveals the complexity of human society and has the duality of depression and cure.

A classic movie is full of vitality. It's not just a movie that can sell a lot of movie tickets and earn hundreds of millions of yuan.

The formal narration of the film begins with the monologue of the man. Henry was in a dark and gloomy room, with his face close-up aimed at the camera and slowly stating.

His statement between narration and monologue runs through the whole film, and it is also the only clue I found in the extremely complicated and chaotic film.

Ironically, I thought he was doing an interview, only to find out that his statement was just his own lonely nonsense. In fact, no one is listening to him.

The whole movie is full of feelings of loss and sadness, which makes people feel inexplicable helplessness and melancholy. The narrative of the story can make the audience want to cry from beginning to end, thanks to the director's bold and exquisite film design:

Focus plane mixed with anxiety and vague memories.

Bright and dim shots, freehand brushwork and poetic lines.

Musical instruments wail and mix with background music and unchangeable cruel facts.

Some people say that there are generally two kinds of classic works: one is to discover the ultimate beauty of the world, and the other is to explore the ultimate suffering of the world. This film belongs to the latter.

The film focuses on the most painful education.

I am a normal student, and I will take the road of teaching and educating people in the future. Because of my education major, when it comes to education, I am instinctively more sensitive than ordinary people and have an unspeakable special feeling for this film.

Education is not a simple problem, or even a problem that can be explained and solved by a movie. However, transcendence more or less faces up to and exposes many educational problems in real life.

I want to ask you, here, at this moment, when you finish reading the word "education", what is your first reaction, and the first thing that comes to mind is "school"? "Society"? "Family"? Or "parents"?

I really don't know why. Now when it comes to "education", the first word that most people think of is-school!

Think that only schools have the responsibility and function to educate children! Why? Why is it so natural! That's right!

All "educational problems", "social education", "family education" and "parent education" have weakened and forgotten their responsibilities and functions in the face of "school education".

What this film reveals and exposes is the most important tragic source that leads to the depression and helplessness of the whole film-"parental education".

My favorite angel, Michael Jackson, once said: Children are the purest angels and the most beautiful gift God has given to the world.

Parents brought them into this world to help them grow into better people. They have the responsibility and obligation to care for their bodies and nourish their souls.

For parents, "having children", "having children" and "having children" are inseparable. In many families in problem children, parents' responsibilities and obligations are only, even only: life!

In other words, only responsible for giving birth to them. What is "education"? How? What is the right thing to do? It's fuzzy and numb.

I just want to ask these parents who are called "mom and dad" by their children: you are only responsible for bringing young and fragile children into this world, but not for educating them to grow up. Why did you have them? Why? Let them face this complicated world alone and painfully?

In the film, Henry said this sentence is thought-provoking:

This reminds me of a crazy idea mentioned by our family education teacher: parents should go to a professional parent school to receive formal education before becoming parents. If they get the "certificate", they will go back to be parents after graduation!

Now it seems that this idea is not crazy, because parents must bear the weight of the word "parents".

I thought, and anxiously expected, that all the characters in the film would eventually be as detached as the title of the film "detachment", but until the end of the film, no one in the film could get his own detachment.

As Henry said:

The people in the film are all lonely and helpless invisible people. They can't find their place in the contact and communication in the real world. Even if they try to be compatible with the world, they are only confused psychological activities and unknown fears.

At the end of the film, Henry read Poe's gloomy "The Collapse of Usher Building" in the last class, and ended the film in a fog.

But this movie is also healing. Even if Erica and Henry hug in the warm sunset for only one minute, it is enough to make an extremely depressed and unbalanced film find a healing balance in the arms of love.

Beyond is indifferent and warm, both depressing and healing. It is a rare classic, no doubt.
