“God still loves us” When Anna saw many pictures of people who got sick, becoming the Dark seekers, she signed “My God” But Robert said “God didn’t do this, Anna, we did.” People could never conquer nature. A drug created for curing cancer mutated into the deadly virus, which were so unexpected for everybody. This is butterfly effect for one thing that could affect the whole earth. If you want to understand the butterfly in the movie , you should know what the butterfly represent. The butterfly repetitively appeared in movie. Why did Robert feel depression all the time and is there something collective between them? One of pictures about butterfly is a torn poster like a butterfly, and the poster said “God still loves us” Another scene: Robert’s daughter said to mummy, “Look at it, it’s a butterfly,” But the end is that the helicopter his daughter took was destroyed. Additionally, Robert’s dog, before the dog is killed, saw butterfly. After the dog died, Robert entirely fell into depression. A butterfly arose on the female Dark seeker who was caught by Robert. She should be the Dark seeker Boss’s wife or something else. “An infected male exposed himself to sunlight today……Social de-evolution appears complete. Typical human behavior is now entirely absent. ” Robert said himself after experiment failed. He never thought infected man has emotion and just wanted to “save” them. But anything was too late. Robert shouted to Anna “There were 6 billion people on earth when the infection hit. KV had a 90 percent kill rate. That’s 5.4 billion people dead……Everybody! Every single person that you or I have ever known……is dead! Dead! There is no God! ”. When butterfly appear, Robert always suffer form something depression. Finally, when Robert saw the Dark seeker Boss hit a butterfly pattern in glass, he was aware of the Killing-angle was coming. Killing-angle, one of God’s fallen angles, possess great power, and he is God’s killer for punish evil not only people but other angles. It is said that he once made Great Blood to destroy everything on earth except for Noah and his Ark. He represents despair and slaughter. His appearance is a butterfly, so the movie flooded with a kind of desperate atmosphere of doomsday. The butterfly appears, and the killing-angle’s final judgment for human is also coming. “God still loves us”, but God won’t have sympathy for human. People deserve it. The director used butterfly to tell us such a truth: Don’t try to change the law of nature; otherwise the final death is only you. 美国电影与美国文化 选修课结课作业 学号:200914224 姓名:赵一 联系电话:15238678937
