Plot introduction:
Butterfly effect is a concept in chaos theory. It refers to a dependence on the sensitivity of initial conditions: small differences at the input end will be quickly amplified to the output end, and the butterfly effect can be seen everywhere in economic life. After watching Butterfly Effect 1, I felt cold and trembled uncontrollably. I don't know why this movie shocked me so much that I added it to the top of my favorite movie. Perhaps it has stepped on the softest corner of my heart, and everyone is eager to go back to the past, change history and make everything better.
Evan, the star, suffers from intermittent amnesia like his "psycho" father. He often makes some strange moves, such as picking up a knife for no reason and scaring her mother, but he doesn't remember. Evan has suffered from this disease since he was a child, and he has forgotten several major exciting experiences. When seeing a psychiatrist, the doctor provided Evan's mother with a way to help Evan with memory therapy, that is, keeping a diary. Since then, Evan has been writing from a few years old until he grows up.
There were several terrible experiences in Evan's life. When his teacher asked him to draw the future, he didn't know why he drew a bloody scene that killed two people. This caused panic among his mother and teachers. He saw a psychiatrist for the first time in his life and began to keep a diary. His mother entrusted him to George, the father of his childhood daughter, on a weekend. However, no one expected that this weekend would change Evan's life forever. George has a special "sexual interest" in young girls, which leads him to molest his daughter Kelly many times, and leads her daughter Kelly and her son Tommy to live in a depressed environment since childhood, with distorted personalities, especially Tommy, who is basically a devil. That weekend, George filmed two 7-year-old children in the basement. Evan only remembers that they were stripped naked and nothing else. In fact, like adults, they filmed a children's version of a "restricted film" that day, and Tommy almost twisted the head of the doll in his hand while watching it. After this incident, Evan continued to grow unconsciously. His illness is still not getting better. The psychiatrist suggested that Evan should be taken to a mental hospital to visit his father. But I don't know why, his father almost strangled him like crazy. The security guard who came to subdue his father killed him by mistake. Evan saw his father fall at his feet, and blood oozed from the back of his head. By the time he was a teenager, he had become a decadent teenager, smoking and wandering in a dark room. Tommy decided to test Lanny's courage with explosives one day and let him put the ignited explosives in the mailbox in front of the owner's house of a villa. When the explosive was about to explode, Evan only remembered covering Kelly's ear with his hand, and the rest of his memories were gone. When he woke up again, Lanny had fainted and everyone was in a mess. He doesn't know what happened. In fact, at the moment of the explosion, the hostess of the villa came to the mailbox with the baby in her arms, and the baby's little hand opened the mailbox. The huge explosion tore the mother and son to pieces. Evan, Kelly and Tommy turned and ran away, while Lanny stood still, dumbfounded. After this happened, Lanny was strongly stimulated, but Evan knew nothing about it. After the incident, Kelly was beaten by her father. Evan, who comforted Kelly, brought the hearts of the two children closer and closer. Tommy caught them with a green kiss. Tommy loves his sister very much, and he tries to protect her from his damn father. At the same time, he hates any man who takes away his sister. Crazy Tommy decided to take revenge. He put Evan's dog in a sack and prepared to burn it to ashes. Seeing Evan coming in the thick smoke, Kelly was knocked down by Tommy with a stick and sneaked around to Lanny behind him, unable to untie the tied rope. Finally, crazy Tommy burned Evan's dog, Kelly and Evan sat on the ground crying, and Lanny became more vulnerable because of deep remorse. In this way, Evan's mother moved, and their mother and son left sadly. A young love, just walked away.
After leaving, Evan was admitted to the psychology department of the state university, joined the brothers' gang and lived the life of an ordinary boy. Until one day, he saw his diary when he was young, and he fainted. When he fainted, he saw his burnt dog. He recalled some details, but he wanted to check with Lanny. Unexpectedly, Lanny was still eccentric because of what happened in those days, and she couldn't let go. He still remembers Tommy's warning. In a rage, he kicked Evan out of the room and gave him a good beating inside. After Evan confirmed this, he began to try to remember the events of that year. He went back to his old town, found Kelly, who was a waiter in a small restaurant, and confirmed the weekend when he was 7 years old. Kelly was filled with joy and thought that Evan had come to make up with herself. When she heard this question, she was a little nervous. She suddenly lost control and ran home in tears, leaving only a crying figure and a sentence: "Since you love me, why didn't you look for me for so many years and leave me here?" ! "Elvin wanted to give up his way of retrieving his memory, but I didn't expect the sad Kelly to commit suicide after crying with Tommy for an hour. Crazy Tommy called Evan's dormitory and told him the news, which sealed his life. Helpless Evan was shocked. At the same time, the only thing he could do was to send a bunch of flowers to Kelly's funeral and throw the card he once wrote to Kelly, "I'll come back for you", into the grave.
When the sad Evan came back to read the diary, he was surprised to find that he went back to the past while reading the diary. He returned to the 7-year-old basement, and Kelly's father was dumbfounded by the excited words. This restricted film was not produced. The change in this matter led to a fresh start in Evan's life. When he woke up again, Kelly became his girlfriend and slept beside him. Everything seems wonderful. He and Kelly are very happy in college. When he decided to propose to Kelly, Tommy released from prison upset their plans. Evan changed Kelly's father, so he never touched Kelly and put all abnormal tendencies on his son Tommy. Tommy was desperate and went to prison. Tommy was jealous that Evan could get everything and attacked Evan in the middle of the night. Evan, who had already prepared it, sprayed Tommy's eyes with a sprayer. Angry Evan hit Tommy crazily: "Without you, Lanny wouldn't be stimulated;" Without you, my life would not be like this. " Out of control, Evan killed Tommy by mistake, causing his own prison disaster. In prison, Evan tried to get his mother to get her diary back. He wants to change the past. His diary was stolen by the leader of a gay gang, and he tried to convince his cellmate that he could change the past. In front of the inmates, he read the diary, went back to the past and went back to the primary school classroom. His teacher asked him to draw his own future, and he drew a scene of killing people. After painting, he put the note needle in his hand in front of the teacher. When he woke up again, his cellmate found two scars on his hand out of thin air and believed him. Evan went into the gay leaders' room, killed them, and began to read the diary. The crazy little brother was blocked by Evan's cellmate who rushed in. At the critical moment, Evan went back to the past.
He went back to the dump where Tommy killed his beloved pet dog. Before that, he found a sharp weapon that could cut the rope. He handed it to Lanny and told him to take it. It must be useful. Cowardly Lanny believed Evan. The three children who arrived at the scene saw the dog in the bag. Evan, who already knows what happened, blurted out, "Tommy, I know you've been protecting your sister from your father being alone with her." Tommy released the puppy from the bag when he heard this. Lanny, who didn't know what to do with the sharp weapon, killed Tommy with it! Evan's life started all over again. When he woke up, he saw Lanny tied up in a mental hospital. Lanny was regarded as a mental illness, and became a young man because of what happened in those years. Desperate Lanny said slowly from the hospital bed, "You should lie here." He thought of Kelly and went back to town to find her. Unexpectedly, his beloved girl has become a prostitute and is addicted to drugs. Kelly still loves Evan in his heart, but he doesn't understand why Evan is so confident that he can change the past. The sad Kelly left and made Evan cry. Evan, who blames himself, opened his diary again. He decided to go to his father and change this situation. His father saw that his son had the same experience as himself and advised him to stop, otherwise it might kill his mother. At the moment, Evan, who thinks he is God, doesn't listen to his father at all. He returned to the day of the explosion. When the owner of the villa approached the mailbox, he rushed forward crazily. Disappointed Tommy shouted "I'll save you, lady" and threw the mother and son down. The mailbox exploded in front of Evan.
When Evan woke up this time, everything seemed fine. Lanny woke up from the bed next to the dormitory and was having sex with his girlfriend. Evan stretched happily and found that he had lost two forearms and became disabled. Surprised Evan found that Lanny's girlfriend turned out to be his beloved Kelly! His three friends changed the course of life because of him. They were moved by Evan's spirit of trying to overcome difficulties. Lanny became a famous excellent student on campus, and even Tommy became a good student because of saving lives. The three of them are very happy, only they have nothing. At the moment, Evan just wants to say a few words to his beloved Kelly. When Kelly said that she once loved Evan, now it's just the truth. After giving birth to Lanny, Evan decided to commit suicide. Tommy, who happened to come, saved Evan and took him to see his mother. Evan found out that his mother died of lung cancer. The sad Evan knew that it was because of his disability that his mother became addicted to cigarettes and got lung cancer. As his father said, he killed his mother. Evan's bright eyes told his mother that everything would be all right. The surprised mother saw the shadow of Evan's insane father in his eyes.
Evan started his diary journey again, and he returned to the evil basement of seven years old. This time, he decided to kill George Kelly?, Tommy's abnormal father, who caused all the disasters. When he lit the explosive, George rushed up and threw it, but Kelly thought it was firecrackers and picked it up and was killed. When Evan woke up again, he had been admitted to a mental hospital. All his diaries have been put away, and the only thing he can find is the previous videos. When he learned that his father changed the past with photo albums, he chose these last hopes-videos. He locked himself in a remote room, and under the collision of many doctors and security guards, he went back to the party where he and Kelly first met. Evan whispered to Kelly, the little girl who offered to be nice, "If you bother me again in the future, I will kill you and your family." Kelly ran away in fear. Evan woke up again, and Lanny looked at him with concern. The first thing Evan said when he woke up was, "Where's Kelly?" Lanny asked in surprise, "Who is Kelly?" Evan was relieved and suddenly understood: "Even if Kelly is lost, it is better than her being hurt." Evan finally stopped changing the past and burned all his diaries.
At the end of the film, Evan became a successful psychologist. E passed Kelly in the busy street. Two people stopped at the same time, but turned back at different times, missing their lives. Evan, who knew this, didn't catch up with Kelly, but let go of the girl he loved for generations-the real girl who lived for generations. Life is turned upside down because of a little thing, which changes again and again. Every time he started again, Evan carefully designed it, but it was completely derailed and developed in a crazy direction because of the sudden appearance of another little thing. The butterfly effect made me suddenly realize that there are many forests now, and God has his own arrangements. Maybe we shouldn't change the past. The past is gone forever and the future is unknown. That's why it's called "now".
Butterfly effect 1 film review
For a lost memory, through three thousand years, just for her little smile. ...
-Excerpted from Su's "Crossing Time and Space for Three Thousand Years"
The Butterfly Effect is a very classic movie. I watched it several times and liked it very much. Later generations became more and more sober. When I first saw the title of the film, I felt that it was a film with content. Unlike a good friend of mine, he bought this film just to see ashton kutcher play the leading role. .
The film was inspired by the famous chaos theory "Butterfly Effect". Lorenz, an American meteorologist, published an article on 1960 entitled "Will a butterfly flap its wings and cause a tornado in Texas?" ? He said that a butterfly flapping its wings in the Amazon basin will set off a storm in the Mississippi River basin. Lorenti dubbed this phenomenon "butterfly effect", which means that a seemingly unrelated and very small thing may bring about great changes.
This wonderful concept was put on the screen by New Line Company. Eric Bress and J Myka gruber, two screenwriters who stayed behind the scenes, wrote the script of Death Comes 2. This time, they finally produced their first feature film, The Butterfly Effect. Myka Gruber said: "Every one of us, consciously or unconsciously, fantasizes that we can change the past and make our present situation better, or hope to live another life and become another person. "This film reflects this idea and the result if we really do this."
Butterfly effect 1 * * has four endings (four versions):
At the end of the film, it goes back to the beginning of the film: Evan runs into his doctor's office (the result of this historical change makes his diary disappear) and wants to change history for the last time through the pictures of home movies. Here, the director arranged four endings.
This is the ending of the director's version: at the beginning of life: Evan's home movie is Evan's mother is about to give birth to Evan. Evan, who entered history, decided to end it all by himself. He grabbed the umbilical cord with both hands and ended his upcoming life. In real life, there is no Evan. Kelly and Tommy are guarded by a divorced mother, far away from BT's father, so naturally there is no detonator incident. Evan's mother later gave birth to a daughter, breaking the ability to pass it on only to boys. In fact, the ending of this director's version is the final ending of the original script, which makes the theme of sacrifice for love more lofty and great, more beautiful and touching. But later, because the new line company was worried that the plot and picture in this shocking ending would cause some public and public anxiety, it was finally changed to the current theatrical version when it was released.
The end of the theatrical version: each grew up and went his own way, but the home movie Evan watched was the first time he saw Kelly. Back in the past, Evan scolded Kelly. He and Kelly did not become good friends, and the custody of Kelly and Tommy was also obtained by his mother. Evan met Kelly in the street after work, but he didn't recognize her.
The other two endings are also set according to the ending of the theatrical version. Another ending of the butterfly effect theatrical version: tailing (55 seconds). After Evan meets Kelly, he goes back to chase Kelly.
The happy ending of the abandoned theater version of the butterfly effect: acquaintance (53 seconds), that is, two people recognize each other.

In his later speeches and papers, Edward used a butterfly with a more romantic image as a metaphor, which is the most popular saying today.
The concept of "butterfly effect" is usually applied to weather, stock market and other complex systems that are difficult to predict in a certain period of time, and extended to the results of things' development. It is extremely sensitive to initial conditions, and the smallest deviation of initial conditions will cause great differences in results.
