Is this an incestuous play? At least I didn't see it.
If it is really love, very love, love with all one's strength, why should it be restrained?
Not that the body will rot after incest.
Of course, even if the body does rot, so what? To be a normal person, an ordinary person, will eventually rot with the grass and trees.
Who cares about these things now. The war between God and man is over. God is dead.
If I were asked to write the plot, I would never see that Brandon had a "brother and sister complex". This is just an ordinary story of the inability of modern people to develop relationships.
Brandon's "sex addiction" is not the reason for his inability to develop relationships, but just another manifestation. The real reason, in my opinion, is that he sees through everything and is too sensitive.
A date with a black female colleague, which explains Brandon's problem well, is the only part of the movie that I understand.
This date, like most men and women in modern times, has the theme of "talking without speculation" and "talking with ducks". Marion, a black female colleague who was in the middle of separation, also asked Brandon why he didn't have a girlfriend - a typical numb person who was a negative teaching material, and also asked why people didn't follow him into the well.
Brandon replied: "At this time, it seems that marriage is meaningless" - of course, since divorce is easy to eat, and there is no longevity to grow old, what kind of marriage? ! Looking for trouble?
Then he said: "Look, the couple who came to the restaurant for dinner basically didn't speak."
Marion said: "Maybe they have tacit understanding" - numb fools!
Brandon objected: "No, maybe they're just fed up with each other from the bottom of their hearts." - Correct Answer!
Why should a marriage, or a relationship with another person, develop if it always ends up breaking up and getting bored?
Of course, if the process is happy, it doesn't matter if the ending is sad. The problem is that the process is also uninteresting.
Look at Brandon's meal - I'm embarrassed for him, I might as well eat alone, at least without trying to find something to say.
