守望尘世第三季

感觉这就像是盗梦空间的超长电视剧版，但是当然，比盗梦也好看和深刻了n倍。

没想到这么晦涩和平凡的剧情，我竟然把三季都刷完了，有一种看着难受但是一直想看结局是什么的冲动。

总体上感觉第一季讲的最深刻吧，后面第二季有些乱，第三季简直是各种插叙、倒叙，穿越来穿越去，完全靠观众自己去联系剧情，有点装逼装太过的感觉。

最后说见到失踪者的世界时候，人们我们觉得失去了他们，但是其实他们同样也失去了我们，有一种被雷劈的感觉，what to do next，永远都是没有答案的，无论是神棍、沉默白衣bitch会还是传统教会，给不出一个静态答案，毕竟生活是一个动态的未知的过程，谁tm知道未来会发生什么。

生活除了remember，还要继续，死死抓住过去，生活无法继续，但是谁的现在不是过去造就的？最终可能还是要乐观的走下去吧，无论通过什么方式看到的过去，其实都是自己无法忘却的回忆的投射吧。

【终于写到这儿了】现在，我想我要解释一下自己为什么会下“Clear”这样一个定义了，因为我觉得“科幻/玄幻/宗教”等等都不足以表述这部剧所想阐述的一切(当然，我并不是在说自己下的定义可以解释一切，不过，从一开始的茫然不解以及看着看着打瞌睡，然后又由于自己不能随意弃剧，入了就得一条道走到黑不是吗？这就是Clear啊，比较级啊，越来越清晰，直到最后的豁然开朗。)。这诚然是一部不可多得的好剧，不愧“剧情”这一分类。不能做剧透党，不过我一定得说：在看到最后20分钟时，还一直讲着一件跨越年代的事，且仅仅是在本季第一集片尾出现过一点提示。自己真的觉得它要烂尾了，还一直在劝自己——一定是跨越的时间，那些Departure事件中消失的人只是到了未来某个时间点，地球还是一个地球…没想到啊，最后真的是以“小人物讲明白大道理”，不拖拉，最后的爆炸性信息量——We just lost some of them,But they lost all of us.

也许吧，也许，这就是上帝的旨意，好比诺亚方舟，按下重启键，只是这里的人们不必体会悲伤前的恐怖与混乱。

“我们一直在彼此身边，只是，你看不见我了，我也无法望向你。所以，生活就这样继续，我觉得这实在太不公平，自己失去了一切珍贵的东西，可是啊，你又何尝不是呢，或许，你比我更惨，独自一人在一个连陌生人都少的可怜的地方”

《守望尘世》是部游走于神剧与神棍剧之间的HBO作品。

它前置了一个惊悚的剧设：7年前的10月14日，地球上有2%、约1.4亿人突然消失了。

然后在漫长的3季故事里，受伤的人们一直创伤难愈，各种抑郁怪诞。

遗忘就是背叛？赎罪代替信仰？幻觉揭示真相？

最后女主诺拉痛下决心，抛舍此间种种，穿越彼岸。

但她在平行时空里体验到更大的痛楚：原来彼岸的人们遭遇了更大的不幸，98%的亲友突然消失，繁华落尽，满目疮痍。她的一对稚嫩儿女已长大成人，她的配偶已另筑新巢，她与旧日时光因遗失的7年已形同陌路，再也无法拼回往日片段。

这时诺拉想起另一个时空，还有一个曾让她牵挂过的男人凯文。幸好时光穿梭机的发明者因思念亲人也已早早穿越过去，诺拉又费尽周折，在她鬓发灰白的暮年终于穿越回来。

“ 执手相看泪眼，竟无语凝噎。念去去、千里烟波，暮霭沉沉楚天阔。”

Scriptlines noted down while I was watching the series.

"The sudden departure?"

"That was me."

"The sudden departure was you?"

"Uh-huh."

"Why?"

"Because I could."

"You're gonna have to do better than that."

"No, I don't."

"You do."

"Why?"

"Because there has to be a reason."

"Why?"

"Everything in my life, I've done for a reason."

"Why?"

"To help people. To...to guide them. To ease their suffering even though I suffered myself. I sacrificed my happiness. I let my family abandon me."

"Why?"

"For you!"

"Everything you've done, you've done because you thought I was watching. Because you thought I was judging. But I wasn't. I'm not. You've never done anything for me. You did it for yourself."

Sn 3 Ep 5 It's a Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt World

"Death is easy. People just want finality, an end to their grief. But with departures, there is no end. They didn't want closure."

"Doubting is easy because doubting costs you nothing. But Judas, he was surrounded by people going on and on abour how special Jesus was. But he betrayed him anyway. Because he was sure be believed in something, and he acted on it."

"Is Nora gone?"

"We're all gone."

Sn 3 Ep 6 Certified

"It wasn't for another hour when he was a mile from the docks that his thoughts turned back to her. He imagined her alone. By now, she would have searched the house and found it empty. She had suspected it all along and now she knew he was a coward."

"A coward dressed in the uniform of a brave man, brave enough to cross two oceans and a continent to find her, to fight countless enemies, and yet in the end, he was terrified."

"He was terrified of her, to lie beside her, to be comforted by her as he wept, to show her he was small, for her to know that and touch his cheek, and whisper words softly into his ear. All of that was a nightmare. All he knew to do was run."

"He took a deep breath of the air, tasting the salt on his tongue, and closed his eyes, leaning into the spray as The Merciful picked up speed, and sailed for the horizon."

"He was alone, and all was well."

"We fucked up with Nora."

Sn 3 Ep 7 The Most Powerful Man in the World (and His Identical Twin Brother)

"I'm scared."

"I'll be fine."

"Of course you will. You always are. I'm scared of what'll happen when I go back to Mary. And I'm scared of the chemicals they're going to put in my body to try to make me better, and...I'm scared it won't work."

"I'm scared of dying, Nora. I'm scared my son will grow up without me, forget my face, forget the sound of my voice."

"But most of all, I'm scared that I'll survive. Because if I do...how can I ever stand in front of a room full of people and convince them that I have the answers when I have no idea what the fuck I'm talking about."

Sn 3 Ep 8 The Book of Nora

We all bear chains of the past. May we find peace and love in the end.

结局挺感动的，nora找到了一个解释作为closure生活下去，只是这解释完美得近乎谎言(剧似乎也暗示这并不是真的)，或许这就是信仰宗教等的现实作用吧…(PS.喜欢Nora也许因为代入那个她了，尤其老年Nora由于有斑更像了，越是觉得耐看跟好看) 但总觉得有点不够的地方，狂热matt被说服稍显简单，连同miracle和kevin的神迹一起，异世界一个核弹就抹掉了；laurie视角单集，明显的指向自杀(虽然纠结了很久才勉强解释她自杀动机)，但最后又甚至可以说稍稍刻意地交代laurie并没自杀(which我觉得才是符合人物的设定)。 这次编剧是给了重要人物一个交代了(对比lost)，但对剧里的世界观价值观似乎并没有。没有一种解释是经得住三季剧情的检验的，你当它是宗教寓意时，它写上帝被狮子吃了，虔诚的神父都彻底放弃信仰；你当它精神错乱的幻觉时，它除了把代表绝对理性的心理治疗师都要自杀之外，还在本季正片开头拍一段宗教故事；它不断透露出虚无主义(GN,Evie的家庭不存在)，它又好像把回家当作主题(s2那个大团圆finale、最后鸽子飞回)。似乎编剧故意不给出一个完整的所谓真相，就像是消失事件那样，观众各自选择接受的解释，尽管这些解释都不无破绽。像修女说的，not selling you, but its a nicer story. 而重要的是“you are here”他们得以live on.

写到这里，应试教育练就的“作文非要提取中心思想”的毛病发作，我还是忍不住觉得这是一个存在主义的结局…或者说，一部弥漫着虚无主义的剧很漂亮地接上一个存在主义的结局…我想我肯定是在说一些我不懂的东西了吧…
