"I think, I can bear it." Nai Wen, a young mathematics student who led everyone out of the predicament, encouraged him, but the words of the rest of her life had not yet been heard, and a sharp instrument had been inserted into her chest.
The policeman Quentin who killed Neiwen was finally cut in half by the moving maze. Half of his body remained in the room where Worth and Neiwen died, and the other half fell to the bottomless wall along the outer wall where Doctor Holloway died. dark.
Finally, facing the bright and soft light, only Kazan, who was lonely, autistic and demented along the way, was left.
How did the 1997 Canadian film CUBE give such a tragic ending?
When he woke up, Worth found himself in an unfamiliar space. It was a cube with almost nothing. There were only six exits from the walls, leading to other cubes of different colors. However, the same cubes one after the other, However, there are many hidden mechanisms, and they form a huge and complex cube maze.
Also in trouble with Worth are Quentin, a police officer, Holloway, a doctor, Nai Wen, a mathematics student, and Kazan, who suffers from autism. Their only way out is to crack the mystery of the cube and escape this maze.
Five people who never knew each other were forced to be linked by fate.
So they embarked on an adventure, relying on Naiwen's mathematical reasoning, struggling to get close to the edge of the maze step by step.
The many organs, complex structures and fear of the unknown in the cube almost destroyed their hope of escaping. However, the human turbulence in between was more like a cruel trial: the leader who did his part at the beginning, tried to lead the way. The righteous policeman who escaped from his life eventually turned into the devil who killed his companions; the cynical doctor was almost paranoid and hysterical; the weak college student was often intimidated by violence and lewd power; unexpectedly, The trance architect turned out to be a participant in designing this murderous maze; and the real irony is that the unremarkable and even a little obtrusive Kazan turned out to be the key to the collective survival in the end.
The closed space of the cube magnifies the depths of everyone's heart, and the maze of many organs eventually swallows these survivors one by one.
But is the real murderer just this icy structure?
What is frightening is, who designed and made this huge murderous magic circle? Nobody knows. According to the words of the architect Worth: Everyone is a participant, but each participant does not know what it will look like in the end. Perhaps, its appearance is simply an unintentional mistake.
What a careless mistake! It's a wonderful irony, I thought: the participants are in the middle of it, not knowing where their collective efforts are ultimately leading. People participate in the structure, only to be devoured by the structure they build.
It's a wonderful metaphor: why doesn't such a cold structure symbolize a bloodthirsty system? However, the construction of this system did not come from the will of some kind of authoritarianism, nor did it come from the oppression of some kind of power, but the general public, all living beings, and collective efforts, and every participant was actually behind the scenes. Push hands! The paradox of the problem is even more: as participating individuals, we do not know, nor can we determine the final formation of this system, let alone control and liberate it. The most unfortunate thing is that once this process begins, we will unconsciously evolve those most brutal elements into collective orgies, internalized into self-knowledge.
The city where I am now is undergoing a process that I call "Pyongyanglising": the original belief-based concept of life is being marginalized, and an external force is deconstructing the original urban spirit and focusing on Reconstruct a new value system. Everything must be brought under control, so the infinitely expanding state machine corresponds to the shrinking of personal and public space, the bright appearance of the city corresponds to the hollowness of the inner temperament, and everyone living here is participating in the construction of This gigantic reality cube.
A famous thesis says: Everyone is a system.
The infinitely evil human nature will eventually become the real blade of murder.
