一、Sam Bell爱上了一个叫Tess的女孩并和她结婚了,然而不久他们的婚姻出了问题。于是Sam受雇于Lunar Industries作为一个赴月球的宇航员,签署了为期3年的合同,呆在月球上开采新能源。
Sam在月球的三年很孤单,只能和妻子Tess通过视频消息交流。通过视频Sam看到了他们的女儿Eve,差不多应该是在Sam去月球时候出生的。
三年期满,Sam回到地球。但是Lunar Industries觉得这样每三年雇一个新人的运输费用太高昂了。于是为了节约成本,他们造了无数个Sam的克隆人,并且将Sam本人的记忆植入他们的大脑中。这些克隆人被冷冻在月球基地的地下室里。
第一个克隆人Sam-2被月球上的机器人Gerty唤醒。Sam-2开始执行他在月球上的三年契约。Gerty告诉他月球上的通信天线被太阳风暴损坏,不能与地球进行实时通信(实际上是Lunar Industries在他们的基地旁盖了干扰发射塔)。这样Sam-2只能“观看”事实上是Tess以前发来的旧的视频消息。而实际上Tess此时和真正的Sam在地球上生活。
又三年期满,Sam-2被告知他将返回地球和妻子Tess团聚,而要返回地球前Gerty告诉他要先被冷冻起来。实际上Sam-2被焚化了。
第二个克隆人Sam-3被唤醒,三年后他也被同样焚化。此时地球上女儿Eve已经9岁了,而妻子Tess却已经去世了。
Sam-4重蹈覆辙,接着我们电影的主角Sam-5终于出场了。电影刚开始时,就是他三年任期快要到期之时。
接下来的故事就是电影情节,Sam-5发现自己开始产生幻觉,接着发生了车祸。Gerty以为他死了,就提前唤醒了Sam-6。Sam-6执意要去事故现场,发现并救出了Sam-5。然后他们终于发现自己其实是克隆人。Sam-5在病重之余开车到电磁干扰区之外,打电话给地球上“自己”的家里,终于看到了此时已经15岁的Eve,也知道了Tess去世的消息,并且发现了真正的地球上的Sam。
地球派遣来了“救援队”。Sam-6知道,如果他们俩被发现就会被杀掉。于是Sam-6决定唤醒Sam-7并把他杀死,以放在车祸现场顶替Sam-5,再把Sam-5偷偷送回地球。
病重的Sam-5觉得自己活不长了,于是不忍心杀死Sam-7。他决定自己回到出事故的车上,而让Sam-6逃回地球。最后Sam-6临走之前还修改了程序,让helium harvester撞毁了干扰发射塔。
二、说完了电影情节,下面说电影的思考。看的时候我以为电影会讨论Tess因为孤独而出轨让Sam伤心欲绝,而她没有。我以为机器人Gerty会为公司的利益而叛变他的主人Sam,然后他没有。我以为Sam-5和Sam-6会因为生存的欲念而自相残杀,而他们没有。
相反地,我看到了Sam-5不顾病重给Eve打电话,意外地看到15岁的女儿、听到妻子死讯时的哽咽和悲痛;Gerty帮助Sam-5输入密码,然后用那机械的声音告诉他,我只是想帮你;Sam-6在临走前和Gerty说,你不是程序,你是有血有肉的人;还有最后一幕,在Sam-5生命的最后时刻,他睁开眼,看见Sam-6离开月球的运输船的弧线。
用一句俗话来说,这是一部赞扬人性光辉的电影,尽管电影的色调黯淡悲伤。
电影的最后透露出Sam-6回到地球后对公司发起了责难。我想此时最受到良心谴责的,应该是真正的Sam本人了。试想,每一个在月球上因为不能和妻子相见而痛苦的Sam,每一个以为自己将要回到地球和妻女团聚,最后却被焚化的Sam,其实都是Sam本人。
我想这也就是为什么,Sam-5宁愿自己死,也不愿意杀死素不相识的Sam-7。其实不是素不相识,他们本是一个人:他们有同样的记忆和思念。
如果你我有相同的回忆,那么你若受到了伤害,我也会难过的。
最后说说这个电影本身。这部独立电影是导演的第一部商业电影,预算仅5百万美元,一个月就拍摄完了,全片的演员也才8个人而已。实在是令人惊叹。从这些数据也可以理解这部电影的不完美之处,比如台词还可以再斟酌和提炼,比如一些细节还可以再真实一些。
1, Sam Bell fell in love with a girl called Tess, and her married, but their marriage soon out of a problem. So Sam employed Lunar Industries went to the moon as an astronaut, signed a three-year contract to stay on the moon mining new energy sources.
Sam is very lonely on the moon three years only and his wife Tess communication via video message. Sam saw a video of their daughter, Eve, almost to the moon should be in when Sam was born.
Three-year period, Sam returned to the Earth. But the Lunar Industries feel that employed a new three-year cost of transport is too expensive. So in order to save costs, they made countless Sam of human cloning, and will the memory of Sam I implanted in their brains. These clones were frozen in the basement of a lunar base.
The first clone Sam-2 was Gerty wake-up robot on the moon. Sam-2 began to carry out his three-year contract on the Moon. Gerty told him that the communications antenna on the moon by the sun storms damaged and can not communicate with the Earth in real time (actually, Lunar Industries covered in their base next to the towers of interference). This Sam-2 can only "watch" is in fact the old Tess previously sent a video message. Fact Tess at this time and the real life of Sam on earth.
Another three-year period, Sam-2 was told that he would return to Earth to reunite with his wife Tess, but to return to Earth before the Gerty was frozen up to tell him first. In fact Sam-2 have been incinerated.
The second clone Sam-3 has been awakened, three years later, he was also incinerated. At this time the Earth has 9-year-old daughter, Eve, while his wife Tess have already died.
Sam-4 repeat the same mistakes, then we are the protagonist of the film was finally played by Sam-5. Film at the beginning is that he is about to expire when the three-year term.
The next story is a movie plot, Sam-5 was found and he started to hallucinate, and then an accident happened. Gerty thought he was dead, the early wake-up call Sam-6. Sam-6 insisted on going to the scene, found and rescued Sam-5. Then they finally found themselves in fact human cloning. Sam-5 in the critically ill while outside the area to drive to electromagnetic interference, called the Earth "own" at home, at last, the time for 15-year-old Eve, is also aware of Tess's death, and found the real The Earth Sam.
The Earth sent to the "rescue team." Sam-6 know that if the two of them were found will be killed. So Sam-6 decided to wake up Sam-7 and to kill him in order to put the incident site replacement Sam-5, then secretly returned to Earth Sam-5.
Fall seriously ill, Sam-5 feel that they not live long, so could not bear to kill Sam-7. He decided to back out of his car accident, and let Sam-6 fled back into the Earth. Before leaving the final Sam-6 has also modified the procedures so that the helium harvester crashing into the towers interference.
2, after talking about the movie plot, following the film thinking that. See, when I thought the film will discuss Tess derailed because they are lonely and so Sam was heartbroken, but she did not. I thought the robot Gerty for the benefit of the company's mutiny his master Sam, and then he did not. I thought Sam-5, and Sam-6 because of the desire to survive and killing each other, but they did not.
On the contrary, I saw Sam-5 despite serious illness called to Eve, were surprised to see 15-year-old daughter, I heard his wife's death when it was choked with sobs and grief; Gerty to help Sam-5 to enter a password, and then use that machine voice told him, I just want to help you; Sam-6 in the left, before and Gerty said, you do not program, you are flesh and blood person; also the last scene, in the Sam-5 life in the final moments, he opened his eyes and saw Sam -6 transport ship left the Moon arc.
With the proverb, it is a glorious human praised the film, even though the film's tone bleak sadness.
The final film revealed Sam-6 returned to Earth after the company launched a censure. At this point I would like to be the conscience of the most condemned, it should be is the real Sam I had. Just think, every one on the moon because we can not meet and painful and his wife, Sam, every one thought he would go back to Earth and his wife and daughter reunion, but has incineration Sam, in fact all Sam himself.
I think that is why, Sam-5 would prefer to die, is not willing to kill strangers Sam-7. In fact, not strangers, they are the one person: they have the same memories and thoughts.
If you and I have the same memories, so if you hurt, I would be sad.
Finally talk about the movie itself. This independent film is the director's first commercial film, the budget is only five million dollars a month on the shooting is over, the entire film's cast is also only eight individuals only. It is amazing. These data can also be understood from the film's imperfections, such as the lines can also be re-examined and refined, such as some details may also be true of some.
