What's the name of the movie that Runtu was told fortune?
I saw the butterfly effect for the first time in college. It was a miracle film. Looking at it after many years, I still feel shocked!
The plot of the film is very open and can be interpreted from two completely different levels, which is not only the embodiment of the film classic, but also the reason why many people can't understand the film.
First, the mainstream plot interpretation:
Personnel profile:
Evan, the male host, is a memory deficit patient. He will forget what happened. There are two possibilities for him to have this symptom:
(1), genetic nature, Evan's father was put in a mental hospital, and Evan's accidental discovery of his grandfather's death certificate also proved that his grandfather was also a madman. This gene was passed on to Evan, which caused Evan's memory problems!
(2) When the psychologist was treating Evan, he told Evan's mother that too much external pressure would make her memory chaotic and broken!
In order to treat amnesia, the doctor advised Evan to record what happened that day every day! The diary recorded here has also become an important fulcrum for the subsequent development and trend of the film!
Introduction:
At the beginning of the movie, Evan searched frantically, wrote a paragraph at the beginning of the movie on a piece of paper, and then the time node instantly returned to thirteen years ago!
Evan lacked father's love since he was a child. He once drew a bloody picture of "a child killing his parents with a knife" in class, which made his mother realize Evan's similar factors to his father. So at the doctor's suggestion, Evan started to keep a diary!
But because of memory problems, Evan can't completely record all the stories that happened that day, so Evan has an incomplete diary!
In Evan's limited memory, his good friend, Kelly from childhood, was unhappy. Her father, who is extremely pedophile, and her aggressive brother are all Kelly's nightmare memories!
/kloc-when he was 0/3 years old, Evan hurt his neighbors in town with a detonator because he played a malicious joke with his playmates. The news that the police are investigating on TV prompted Evan's mother to move out of town with Evan!
Seven years later, Evan became a student at a state university, majoring in psychology, and devoted himself to the study of memory loss. On a date, Evan was encouraged by his girlfriend to read the diary he wrote when he was a child, which was originally incomplete. But seven years later, when he was read again, many lost memories flooded into Evan's mind.
Evan woke up and realized that rereading the diary might be an effective way to treat amnesia!
So Evan chose to try again. When he read the diary for the second time, the burning cigarette butts in his memory fell on his clothes and burned a knot on his stomach. After waking up, Evan found himself in reality, with many bumps in his memory!
So an amazing secret was discovered by Evan, rereading his diary, and making corresponding changes to what happened in the past in his memory, which will really happen in the future reality!
It is also because of this rereading of the diary that Evan remembered his childhood playmate: Kelly!
In the process of seeing Kelly again, Evan insisted on studying and perfecting his memory and asked Kelly about his childhood shadow without thinking. Because of this, Kelly was overwhelmed and chose to commit suicide on the night of meeting!
At this point, the film officially entered a seemingly chaotic but orderly climax!
Evan wants to make up for it after losing Kelly, so he wants to change Kelly's life by rereading his diary and changing the details in his memory!
In memory, he chose to scold Kelly's father. After waking up, Kelly and his life really changed dramatically!
But it is the unfortunate life of Kelly's younger brother, because Evan only changed Kelly's father's attitude towards Kelly in his memory, ignoring other people and things!
So Evan wants to change his memory again, deal with the tragedy he doesn't want to see, and read his diary again and again. I will adjust my memory according to my own ideas. Every time I wake up, Ivan is the same upside down, different reality changes!
However, every change can't be as perfect as Evan wants.
The last time Evan read his diary, things in his memory didn't evolve according to Evan's plan. The exploding detonator killed Kelly, and in the real world corresponding to this memory line, Evan became crazy and needed regular treatment!
Evan still wants to go back and make a new change, but because diaries don't exist in this real world!
After an argument with the doctor, Evan hid under the table and wrote a paragraph: "If I go back to the beginning, I think I can save him!" " ".At this time, the projector under the table just put the picture of Evan's mother giving birth in the hospital!
This inexplicable coincidence made Evan return to the memory line this time, that is, his memory in his mother's belly!
In order to make everything repeat itself, the change he chose this time was to kill himself in the fetal stage!
At this point, the movie is over!
Interpretation of connotation:
(1) Any slight change in life will have a great impact on the future!
(2) There is no perfect life, even if you can go back to the past, you can't do it. Live in the present and cherish the present!
Second, the interpretation of the real plot:
Evan has a familial psychosis, and his memory disorder and loss are the manifestations of the disease. It's just Evan's imagination to change his memory and be reborn.
In Ivan's real life, that is, the last paragraph, Ivan killed Kelly by mistake, which stimulated the mental factors in the body in advance. The so-called diary and the middle story are all illusory memories under Evan's chaotic thinking!
Such speculation is not groundless. Evan reread his diary for the last time and went back to the past. There is a scene where he stands in the kitchen with a knife, much like Evan standing in the kitchen with a knife in the first paragraph of his life at the beginning of the movie!
The combination of the two paragraphs is Evan's real life experience, and everything in the middle is Evan's own illusion!
