《巴比龙》——自由的象征(2)

亨利因被控杀害一名皮条客而被捕入狱，被流放到圭亚那一个名为魔鬼岛的苦役营服刑。在这个荒莽地带，四处都流行着疾病，没日没夜的劳作致使90%的苦役活不到刑期结束便得暴病死去。然而亨利始终认为自己是冤枉的，为了洗刷自己的罪名，从他踏上魔鬼岛的第一天，他就开始策划逃跑。
Rousseau once said that man is born free, but always in chains. I think the history of mankind is a process of continuous pursuit of freedom and self-liberation, and the character of bobby dragon reminds me of the Monkey King of China, the movie shawshank redemption. They both love freedom, as the old saying goes, love is precious, life is more valuable, if for freedom, both can be thrown away.

卢梭曾说，人是生而自由的，却无往不在枷锁之中。我觉得人类的历史就是不断追求自由、不断自我解放的过程，巴比龙这个角色让我想起了中国的孙悟空，电影肖申克的救赎。他们都爱自由，正如老话有说，爱情诚可贵，生命价更高，若为自由故，二者皆可抛。
Friendship and freedom from captivity are the core of the film. I want to talk about the pursuit of freedom, to put that word into everyday life, to ask yourself, are you free? A lot of people would definitely say that it"s not free, that real life is too harsh, that you"re forced to do things you don"t want to do every day. I want to say, when you say that, think back to your past, did you pay for your freedom? Charlie in the movie he paid, and his price was too big, too heavy. He would rather die without freedom. That"s the attitude. He got freedom.
