The movie "Captain Marvel" tells the story of a young couple in the depths of the primeval forest on the west coast of the United States, far from the world, carefully raising and educating six children. The wife returned to modern society for treatment due to illness, and the father continued to lead the children to hunt, fight, climb, and dissect deep in the jungle. Teach a variety of practical survival skills. At night, they gathered around the campfire to listen to classical music, learn musical instruments, listen to their father explain history, philosophy, medicine, social law, and often open-ended discussions about what they had learned. When the news of their mother's death from illness came, the children decided to go out of the mountains and go to the city to attend their mother's "earthly funeral"; and, according to their mother's will, they vowed to take back their mother's body for cremation, and finally washed the ashes into the toilet. [Can you imagine dressing so brightly for a funeral?] 】
The first shot of the opening scene is a mesmerizing green primeval forest, and a foraging deer appears in the picture, making people think that they have entered the wrong animal world. Then a hunter in camouflage suddenly came out, successfully killed the deer in a few clicks, and walked next to several hunters with the same face covered in mud, without dialogue, which made people feel like a documentary. When they returned to their camp, they began to talk to each other, and then they saw that this was a family, large and small, men and women, living in this beautiful jungle in the most primitive but scientific way. They used the most primitive methods of survival, hunting with their bare hands to obtain food, drilling wood for fire, and also engaged in survival training such as fighting and rock climbing; they also insisted on reading every day, listening to classical music around the campfire at night, playing and singing together when they were interested, and often discussing a certain topic; Dad had absolute leadership over the children, but he also often debated with his children democratically to convince people. This is simply a living reality, the ideal state utopia depicted by Plato.
What will happen to the children who live, grow up, and are educated in such a primeval forest? It can only be described as magical.
They don't watch movies and TV and don't know about Nike BMW, they haven't eaten foreign fast food or seen game consoles, but they know how to correct fractures, how to identify edible plants, how to survive in the forest with only a knife, as evidenced by deer hunting at the beginning. There is a scene in the film where the mother's relatives question their way of educating, and the father calls the relatives, two sons aged 13-14, to ask "What is the Bill of Rights?" The two were completely confused; then the father called his 8-year-old son, who could not only answer fluently like an endorsement, but also express his own opinions, which was simply the crushing of the school bully on the scum. The eldest son is 18 years old, deeper and richer, with the help of his mother to take the entrance exam, has received the United States Yale University, Brown University, Princeton University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Harvard University, etc., the united States' top school admission letters, is absolutely the elite of secular human society. [When a child asks a sensitive question like "QJ", the father can answer it positively on the spot, which family can do it?] 】
What is even more amazing is that they are so excellent and super capable, but they have no idea about the real worldly human society. The eldest son can choose to enter the best university in the United States at will, but he does not know how to communicate with strange women at all, and as a result, he is approached by a slightly dusty girl, and after an excited kiss, he thinks of getting married and having children, and then kneels down in front of the girl's mother to propose, and the result is that the secular mother and daughter are rejected as fools. In the end, the family dug up their mother's body from the cemetery and brought it back to the jungle to be cremated by the lake, and the family had a happy smile on their faces, not at all like the family's dead favorite.
My father didn't live in the jungle from the beginning, he understood the world, but he took his children to the supermarket to steal things. The children did not care about the secular laws in the city, but took this matter as a task of "saving the food plan" to complete, a perfect division of labor; the father first pretended to be sick and fainted, two small shouts let people call the police, attracting the attention of others, the remaining 4 children divided into 2 groups to pack food on their backs, and then silently and quickly left the supermarket, hid in the car, waited for the father to return, and waited for the car to drive out of the sight of the supermarket before climbing out, it was simply a perfect professional team. Including in the movie, the family chorus songs twice, there is a clear division of labor, some people play guitar and some people play drums, some lead singers, some people harmonize and even accompaniment with vocal shouts, and some people dance to the rhythm, as perfect as a professional band.
This family is in an ideal state of life from the beginning, they are all excellent, knowledgeable and cultured, have a strong ability to survive in the wild, are physically strong, mentally healthy, and the family has talked and laughed and loved. If only they were left in the world, they would be able to survive for many years, but there was a problem that limited their development. In the end, they had to compromise with secular society, leaving the forest and going to the cities to study and work, although they still retained the tradition and ability to rely on themselves. Their biggest problem is that they are just a family, they can't build a society, and in order to reproduce, they have to go out or attract outsiders to join. [Finally, the father sent his eldest son to college, and the first thing he explained was the precautions about having sex with women.] 】
After watching a movie like Captain Marvel, will you be touched? Do you think about the social structure, education, and even the laws of existence in the modern world? At least one thing, their education is very good, they can write and fight, the best universities are picked at will, and the pressure of contemporary school education is great!
