Chapter 1557 1557 Warm Moment
The whole cinema is filled with a kind of despairing sadness, one by one disappearing life before one's eyes, a piece of lifeless ruins, one after another unsuccessful attempt... Powerful aliens make all efforts seem to be in vain , the doomsday fear of death makes humanity seem so small. That black despair was like spider silk, clinging to the heart, and the poison began to penetrate slowly, slowly.
This emotion reached its peak in the pale face of the first lady. Although Steve rescued Jia Siming, Dylan and the first lady, the internal bleeding of the first lady was too serious and the rescue was too slow. It's too late. Existing medical means can't do anything, which means that Thomas can only watch his wife's life disappear bit by bit.
Thomas looked at his young daughter who was curled up in his wife's arms with nostalgia, and stood there speechless.
The tears in Cameron's eyes quickly piled up, but he couldn't hold it back for a while. The hot tears fell down like this. After nearly 90 minutes of accumulation, the despair and sadness in his heart broke out completely, making it too late for her to react. , it crashes immediately.
Not only Cameron, but also Jennifer Aniston and Sandra Bullock couldn't hold back the tears in their eyes, even if Jennifer filmed the scene herself - she played the first lady, but When I saw this scene, the faint warmth in the background of the end of the world still made the softness in my heart turn into a pool of water.
Even Charlize Theron bowed his head in embarrassment, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes. She has never been a crybaby, because she had been taught from childhood that tears are a sign of weakness and cannot give her any help. But at this time, watching President Thomas, played by Alexander Lorraine, standing in place at a loss, looking at his wife and daughter with reluctance and grief, Charlize could not restrain his turbulent emotions.
Roger Ebert sighed lightly at this time. The helplessness and despair behind disasters always make one's nose sour, especially in the background of the end of the world. Powerless to parry. But Roger couldn't help but want to sigh at the sophistication of this script.
From the very beginning of the film, the two roles of Steve and President Thomas have been foreshadowed, the interaction between Steve and Jia Siming on several phone calls, and the relationship with his son Dylan, including several conversations between him and his comrades-in-arms , all set off Steve's fetters on family, love, and friendship. The word "love" made him decisive and sad. So when Steve learned that his base was in ruins, he was extremely decadent, and even disobeyed the military order to go to the base to find Jia Siming and Dylan.
And Thomas was hard to let go of the deaths of innocent civilians in the past, and later he was dissatisfied with the Secretary of Defense for concealing alien information, which led to the expansion of the disaster, and before he refused to use nuclear bombs because he was worried about reconstruction after the disaster... So, when he is the closest and dearest wife When he was about to face life and death, especially when he saw his wife's life disappear but was helpless and frustrated, the powerful and ferocious shock directly defeated Thomas.
All of these plots took place at a desperate moment when even nuclear weapons were ineffective. Thanks to the previous foreshadowing, the audience's feelings at this moment reached an unprecedented intensity. As a commercial movie script, the rhythm control, plot setting and details are definitely a classic, just listen to the sound of wiping tears at the scene.
At this moment, the movie seems to echo Roger's idea again,
I saw Steve walking past the temporary medical room with Dylan in his arms, and saw the scene in front of him, the pale first lady lying weakly on the hospital bed. He even looked away unbearably, hugged Dylan and Jia Siming tightly, stood there quietly, and felt the pulse of life beating gently. In the end, Steve asked Dylan and Jasmine to go back to rest first, while he sat down on the bench outside, leaving the private space to Thomas and his wife.
The audience only felt like they were Steve. As bystanders, they felt the same way about Thomas' situation. They couldn't restrain the turbulence and trembling in their hearts. They wanted to comfort Thomas, but they couldn't do anything, because in front of the god of death, All are equal. Watching Thomas and his wife say goodbye at the end, and then staggered out of the ward with a look of dejection, the sobbing of all the audience stopped for a moment, only the sound of tears slowly falling.
Steve stepped forward, but didn't say anything, just stood up and stared at Thomas silently. Thomas glanced at Steve and hesitated again and again, but the countless words remained in his mouth, unable to say it. If it wasn't for Steve, he might not have seen his wife for the last time, but at this time, he couldn't thank him. Squeezed out of his throat, in the end, Thomas just stepped forward, gave Steve a hug, then patted Steve on the shoulder, expressing his thanks, and then took a heavy step towards the bench past—her daughter sat there quietly.
Steve turned around and left, but walked over to Jia Siming and Dylan. The three of them silently depended on each other, looking at the little girl leaning on her father's arms. The little girl suppressed the tears in her eyes and asked in a low voice, "Is Mommy asleep?"
This sentence made everyone at the scene burst into tears, and the low sobbing sounded again, and even Roger couldn't help his eyes wet. His childish words broke all the lines of defense.
However, President Thomas had to grit his teeth tightly to prevent his weakness from breaking into tears. He said in a deep voice, "Yes, she fell asleep." Then Thomas held his daughter firmly in his arms and comforted him. With her daughter, she also draws strong strength from her. At this moment, he is not the president, he is just a husband and a father.
Seeing this scene, Dylan raised his head and asked in a milky voice, "Dad, can I accompany her?"
Steve touched Dylan's head lightly, "Of course, you can play with her."
The warmth against the backdrop of the raging war made the whole cinema feel warm. Couples hug each other tightly, family members hug each other, and even strangers exchange glances, looking for the friendly and warm light in each other's eyes.
The advent of the end of the world, in addition to bringing disaster, also makes people deeply realize that only by loving life can they live up to the fact that they are alive. "Independence Day" achieves the most direct purpose with the most limited length of the simplest story. This is also the fundamental reason why Roger is full of praise for the script, "Hugo's vision is really good." Roger couldn't help but slightly nodded his chin and sighed.
The tender moment is only short-lived, because the Fourth of July is here.
Jia Siming finally returned to the base. At first, it was she who deciphered the alien's signal and learned that the aliens were going to attack the earth. Now, people can only hope that Jia Siming can make further breakthroughs. Under the leadership of Steve, Jia Siming saw the alien spacecraft that had been preserved for nearly 40 years, but Jia Siming had no clue.
One after another, President Thomas, the Minister of Defense, the army's top commander general and others all came here, pinning their hopes on Jia Siming. But Jia Siming could not find a clue.
Originally, Steve was holding Dylan and stood aside, but when he saw Thomas carrying his daughter, Steve put Dylan down and let him go and play with the little girl. Watching Dylan hold the little girl's soft little hand, Steve and Thomas exchanged glances, and both of them smiled.
After Steve arrived in Area 51, he learned that his base had turned into ruins. In fact, he didn't take a good look at the spaceship. At this moment, Steve stepped forward, recalling his previous battle with the spaceship, and said, "Actually, the shield of the fighter plane cannot be closed, because when the fighter plane collided with the cliff, I opened it with my own hands. cabin."
"What do you mean? Let's fly into the alien spaceship like Superman, and then go in and fight?" Jia Siming returned with a frown, making everyone chuckle.
Instead of being pompous, Steve was silent for a while, thinking seriously, "I mean, the shield of the ship isn't blocking everything, maybe just metal. I mean, maybe." Steve The speculation made everyone look at each other, because he now put forward a very interesting theory, "And, you see, those ships are not blocking their own fighter planes, obviously they have their own identification system, so, can we fly this plane? What about fighter jets flying inside the spaceship and dropping bombs inside?"
"But even if this fighter can fly, there is only one, the ammunition is limited, and there are countless such fighters in that giant spaceship." Jia Siming pointed out the biggest loophole in Steve's plan keenly.
Steve fell silent, running his head quickly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "However, if we rely on this fighter to enter the interior, not to fight, but to integrate into them, and then use this fighter to destroy their interior. Shields so that our ammunition can actually damage the ship, so that this war will return to a fair starting line. So what?"
"Steve, what are you thinking?" President Thomas finally couldn't help himself and said.
Steve pondered for a while, "I was thinking, since they can rely on the mother ship to practice all the daughter ships, does this mean that they have an internal network, not only for communication, but also for synchronizing operations. Well, we Just get into the mother ship and break the shields through their networking, and the shields on all ships will fail."
Steve's bold plan made everyone stunned, even the audience in the movie theater widened their eyes, lest they miss the most exciting part in the blink of an eye, "What do you mean?" Jia Siming asked.
Steve showed uncertain hesitation, looked at everyone and said, "Virus!"
Is the Jedi Counterattack really about to start now?
