About the doomsday movie, I can think of a movie " acquired ", "2012", " Snow Country Train ", "Interstellar", "Wandering Earth"... There are countless viruses and zombies.
I have written a lot recently, "Don't look up", "Silent Sea", "Eternal Family"...
(If you have any doomsday videos you prefer, please leave a message in the message area)
I think I am a disaster movie lover, but recently I found out that I missed a movie " Tsunami Miracle "
The reason I came to this movie is because I watched the news about the eruption of the Tonga volcano for several days.
Satellite map of Tonga volcano eruption, it was really a terrifying eruption.
mushroom cloud formed by the volcanic eruption rushed to a height of 17 kilometers, This has penetrated the entire troposphere and reached the stratosphere.
Until today, the whole country of Tonga is still in a state of losing contact with the outside world. This state may take two weeks to fully recover.
Judging from various news, this may be one of the biggest natural disasters in the past two years.
This reminds people of the huge natural disaster in 2004 - Indonesian tsunami .
And this "Tsunami Miracle" is based on the real story of a family in the Indonesian tsunami.
Of course, this family has survivors,
Otherwise, there would not be this oral script.
"Tsunami Miracle" has a total investment of 30 million euros, and the global box office has exceeded 1 billion yuan.
film set transports 135 tons of water to the reservoir every day, and uses a special robot arm to stir the water in the reservoir up and down to keep the water turbid and rolling.
Actors staged a "drowning and survival" in such a real "tsunami".
The most surprising gain of this movie is Q version Dutch brother . I checked it and the shooting time was at the end of 2010, Dutch brother 14 years old.
This should be the first movie he participated in.
debut performance has also been recognized by the industry and won the "Best Rising Star" award in 2012.
To this day, I went to read movie reviews, Many prophets in 2013: The eldest son will be popular.
Traveling feeling:
The plot of this movie is very thin, But the 14-year-old Dutch brother definitely contributed his crucial acting skills.
is said to support two-thirds of the important role.
The other two adults are also acting.
The actor of father Henry Ewan McGreg , who just won the 73rd Primetime Emmy Award for Best Actor for "Houston" in September last year.
html When he was 19 years old, Ivan saw his uncle Dennis Lawson star in "Star Wars" and made him aspire to become an actor.
1999, Ivan finally participated in the prequel movie "The Ghost's Threat" of "Star Wars", playing the role of the Jedi master Obi-Wan .
In a dry script like "Tsunami Miracle",
Ivan's performance became the first tear point in the whole play.
The actor of Mother Mariya is Naomi Watts, you should be more familiar with the well-known heroine of "King Kong".
With "Tsunami Miracle", Naomi won the 85th Academy Award for Best Actress.
For most of the time in the movie, Naomi was either not in the water or was lying on the hospital bed in exhaustion.
can give her very limited space for acting, but she really fills the whole show with her eyes.
Helplessness and tragic in the face of disaster are basically interpreted by the role of mother.
In addition, after simply laying the foundation for the image of an ordinary woman who is naturally timid, she showed her courage in her desperate situation while protecting her children.
The following began to involve spoilers
1
On December 26, 2004, a plate change occurred in the seabed north of Sumatra, Indonesia, and finally determined that the moment magnitude reached 9.3, triggering a tsunami of up to 10 meters.
According to statistics from the Ministry of Health in the second year, the total number of victims has exceeded 292,000.
htmlOn November 24, Bennett and his family took a plane to koala in Thailand for Christmas.
The two scenes on the plane and after landing are very simple, probably showing us the character of the family.
Father Henry: Severe Obsessive-compulsive disorder patient.
not only worry about the alarm at home, but also about your own work.
Mother Mariya: Full-time housewife, taking care of three children at home.
The bumps when the plane landed made her scared twice, and she was even ridiculed by her eldest son.
Three children: a bit arrogant brother Lucas,
timid second son Thomas (seven and a half years old),
The little brother, cute baby Simon (five years old).
Lucas occasionally dislikes his younger brother, but it is actually quite realistic. In reality, if we come into contact with children, we can clearly see this rule.
older children basically don’t like to play with children.
The scene before the tsunami was only 13 minutes, because the plot in the future was about survival and finding each other.
only tells the story of the two days from the beginning of the tsunami to the escape, so the director used some clever details to give the audience a lot of tips.
The first detail after checking in the hotel: a can of Coke.
A Christmas gift from my brother: a red ball.
htmlOn November 26, the tsunami swept across the resort.
Koula The location of this resort is still some distance from the epicenter of the Indonesian tsunami.
But even if there are no waves of ten meters, it is enough to make the audience feel helpless and suffocating.
Mariya, who initially surfaced, just roared wildly until she saw her eldest son struggling in the water, and immediately resolutely let go of her hands holding the "life-saving trunk".
After scratched by countless tree trunks and washed-out buildings, Malia finally hugged her eldest son.
I believe many people have experienced this age group and strive to show their "adult" side to their parents.
Boldly push forward in everything, not afraid of heaven or earth, in fact, some of them are "showing off".
After laying the foundation for a series of brother's stubbornness, the director lets the audience feel that children are always children.
1 In the face of a fatal disaster, Lucas said to his mother:
"Mom, I am a brave child, but I am afraid."
While waiting for the lifeguard, Malia had two huge wounds.
One is caused by severe flesh tilt in the calf, and the other is a branch piercing the chest.
We won't put close-ups on it.
Even so, Maliya insisted on saving a child who was calling for help from her son despite her son's objection.
"Even if the next wave hits again, we are not spared, even if the father and brothers are dead, this is the last thing we can do."
They climbed a big tree, which echoed the first detail before, and a can of Coke became the only food ration for three people.
This place is very interesting. The rescued little Daniel is very small and looks about three or four years old.
He may not understand at all what is going on.
But he already knows how to comfort the strangers who have protected him in the face of this terrible thing.
After his mother was placed in a messy hospital, Lucas began to help in the hospital.
He helped a Swedish uncle find his lost son and also saw Daniel reunited with his father.
However, Malia's condition is not very good. She lost too much blood and needed two surgeries, and her face is almost gone.

Father Henry's side, after he woke up near the hotel, his father and everyone were separated.
But luckily, both Thomas and Simon were rescued.
Henry did not give up in the face of the sudden disaster. His first idea was to find the lost Malia and Lucas.
Even in the end he has started looking for the body.
Henry handed over the task of taking care of his little brother to Thomas, who always seemed submissive.
After sending the child to the shelter on the top of the mountain, Henry met the stranger Schweber (schweber) who lent him the phone number
Schweber did not go to the beach because of a leg injury, and his wife and daughter left her a note at the head of the bed.
Henry called his father and told him about his current situation, but he hung up because he lost control and crashed during the call.
People around him told him that he could not just hang up the phone, and the family on the other side was even more helpless and worried.
So, Henry calmed down and called his father back and said to his father: "I will find them, I promise."
In order to create conflicts and conflicts in most disaster movies, the director will deliberately arrange one or two selfish people as obstacles.
of course, it is not a villain, it is just to protect itself and let innocent people take the blame.
However, there are almost no such characters in "Tsunami Miracle". In the face of disaster, strangers united together.
From medical staff to patients in the neighboring bed; from nearby villagers to strangers who also lost their loved ones, everyone is doing their best to help each other.
With the joint efforts, Henry reunited with his family.
. Schweber, who encouraged and helped each other all the way, didn't even ask each other's names clearly when he parted.
At the end of the movie, Henry took out a note in his pocket on the plane home.
The above is the name of Schweb's missing daughter and wife. After opening it, is the last message of his wife at Schweb's bedside.
The climax of the movie is the moment when the three brothers reunite:
The cute little baby Simon and seven-year-old Thomas ran and hugged into their brother's arms.
Thomas is a coward who is afraid of the bumpy plane and can't sleep at night and will get into his mother's bed.
But he still took on the responsibility of taking good care of his younger brother.
Another detail in the first 13 minutes of the video we laid out before - the red ball.
also became an important clue for my father to decide to stay in this hospital and look for it again.
The movie is called "Tsunami Miracle", and this family is indeed a miracle.
And outside the camera, there are many people who are struggling to survive and persist in searching for discrete relatives, but miracles will not choose everyone.

013, I went to Phuket once with a group.
Nearly nine years have passed, and what I remember most deeply for me is the tour guide's explanation of PP Island...
PP Island is very small, and it takes an hour to land on the island. When the tsunami occurs, Basically, no matter where you are on the island, you can't hide.
The most shocking picture for me is that there are many stout trees on the island and countless ribbons on .
Many people escaped the disaster by relying on this tree and came back to pray and thank you later.
⬆️Real shots on PP Island in 2013
Recently, many people told me, are there too many disasters in two years?
My answer is that it is not very special.
Since the day it was formed, the earth has been in a difficult and tragic torture, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanic eruptions, droughts, floods and disasters... have never stopped.
976 China Tangshan earthquake; Mexico City earthquake in 1985; Iran earthquake in 1990; Hanshin earthquake in Japan in 1995; Turkey earthquake in 1999;
001 Gujarat earthquake in India in 2004;
08;
010 Haiti earthquake in Haiti earthquake in 2011; East Japan earthquake in 2012…
hmm l0980 Mount St. Helen volcano erupted in
85 Nevada Druze volcano erupted in 1991 volcano Yunxianyue volcano 1991 Pinatubo volcano 1991
960 Chile tsunami; 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami; 2010 Indonesia Sumatra tsunami...
We have never lived in a special, difficult, and unsatisfied era.
The development of human civilization has always been rebuilt again and again in these disasters.
There are not many big scenes of the tsunami in the play, and if you want to watch the disaster blockbuster, you may be a little disappointed.
But I think this movie has more meaning, it is education in the face of survival, death, disaster, and growth.
"Think about beautiful things", a seemingly very simple sentence appeared in the film three times in total.
For the first time, in the hotel by the sea, Thomas couldn't sleep, and his mother asked him "Close your eyes and think about the good things."
The second time, in the refuge on the top of the mountain, the younger brother Simon said he was afraid.
Thomas used what his mother said to him "Close your eyes and think about happiness."
The third time, Malia is about to go to the ward for surgery, nurse "Don't worry, close your eyes and think about the good things!"
In the shelter on the top of the mountain, Thomas said he likes to see stars. Star, the old man he met said: "Some stars have burned out a long time ago. They are dead, but they have also emitted dazzling lights. Those lights pass through the vast universe and are finally seen by our eyes."
By the way, the actor who plays this old man is the daughter of Chaplin Geraldine Chaplin .
If you really can't get any profound secrets, then it's also good to treat it as a survival movie.
Remember to pick up a diet that can store energy (Cola); remember to climb a solid tree; remember to help others as much as you expect others to help you; remember not to give up looking for separated friends and relatives...
