The Truth That Answers Don't Exist: Greenaway's One Z and Two Zeros
What is a Z and two 0s? Is it the zoo in the film? Z is also the last of the 26 letters, and 0 is the origin of Arabic numerals. 00 is the conjoined twins Oswald and Oliver in the film, Z is also a zebra (Zebra), Z represents the end and 00 represents the beginning (00 is even like a dividing cell), it seems to be a symbol of the cycle of life.
Greenaway never expresses his thoughts in a narrative and logical way, just like postmodern poetry, one Z and two zeros... -

In fact, this film is quite difficult to handle, the weird music at the beginning, the bizarre murder case, the intermittent history of the mysterious life on earth, the characters' obsession with black and white, symmetry, decay and almost perverted, etc. If everything comes together, from my point of view it will be the constant change of the earth, which was originally a natural development, but then became unbalanced due to some shortage of greed and selfishness, with the help of zoos...

It can be said that the concept of sex beyond normal ethics is all in this film dabble. Just dabbling in it, so far, there is not too much intuitive presentation. The director is so calm and prudent, restraining his subjective emotions to the extreme. Despite this, we still find clues from the viewing process. Peter greenaway is...By Gloria 2022-07-07 23:42:46
Greenaway's works always have a lot of symmetrical compositions and music that perfectly fits the rhythm of the shots to show a solemn, solemn sense of ceremony. And this sense of ritual can be said to be the ultimate in this film, a ritual about death, the last ritual of life. At the same time, dirty, anti-ethical, food and sex, death instinct, physical discomfort, these Greenaway signs are also readily available, this film can be described as a collection of Greenaway elements, people...
