I can understand Brandon so well. (The integrity has been lost)
I saw someone say that I couldn't understand what they were talking about, so I said my own opinion.
The title, a shirtless man, what do you mean?
He woke me up when he got up, and it turned out that the lower body was also naked.
What is he looking at, the ceiling? Or ignore it?
The screen cuts to the subway, where he sees a beautiful lady.
Switch back again.
He was naked and walked around the house without any sense of shame.
Heard the phone message (it was his sister).
The shot goes back to the subway.
Then cut to him calling prostitutes.
A familiar look.
Switch back to phone messages.
The male protagonist drank water swaggeringly, seemingly paying no attention to the phone, holding an indifferent attitude, as if it didn't exist.
You can see how indifferent he is to his sister.
Masturbate in the bathroom.
Switching to the subway, the male protagonist's face is blurred. stare at her.
The lady who was favored was very happy, but Brandon just looked at it like that and didn't say anything else.
His gaze was not seductive.
The lady's expression seemed to be waiting for a response from him.
But she quickly realized that something was wrong. His gaze was not that of a normal man.
It was the gaze of a prostitute, intending to spy on the flesh under the clothes, to spy on the 'obscene' consciousness in the head. It's not liking, it's purely lust for women. And he ignored her reaction, and he kept it secret. By watching, abstract her into symbols. The indifferent look has a hint of aggression, a disdain for what is seen; nothing but desire.
The woman felt the violation and hurriedly escaped.
When Brandon went to work, he was indifferent, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
Until I was awakened by the words of my boss.
"I think you are disgusting"
"I don't think you can be comforted"
"I think you are too aggressive"
These are all like talking about himself, watching porn, calling prostitutes, masturbating. Confused.
Back at the office, the computer was taken (a virus). There are many pornographic films in the hard drive.
But that didn't stop him - he was about to run into the toilet and masturbate.
Nothing can satisfy him.
In another scene, the door is opened for the woman pushing the stroller, returning home to listen to the piano. Seemingly elegant behavior.
At least he's not bad.
Then turn on the computer as usual, and watch porn without boredom.
However, she ignored the calls, as if she was tired of her sister's behavior. Keep watching the movie.
Seeing this, I thought porn addiction was just a symptom and we should focus on what he doesn't care (really care about). Think about it, why is he so indifferent to his sister?
His boss came out to be romantic, and he knew how to flirt with girls; although he wasn't very smart, he was lively and interesting enough.
In contrast, Brandon looks mature and more restrained.
Beauty invites Brandon to dance, but he politely declines. Why doesn't he accept it?
I think: what he wants is sex, and the rest is superfluous. Refuse to get too close to others.
Social relationships seem too troublesome and hypocritical.
Prostitutes are obviously more trouble-free - don't have to know who the other party is, and don't have to share responsibility, just pay.
His sister came and made a mess in the house. He thought a thief had broken in.
It turned out that my sister was naked in the bathroom.
Conversations are extremely interesting. Love and kill each other.
Brandon said Sisi came over without calling.
Sihi said she made numerous phone calls.
Brandon couldn't deny it. The only way he wanted to get rid of her was to act like he didn't care.
It was so cruel to my sister that it ended up having the opposite effect.
Brandon hid behind the door and looked a little nervous, quite different from the calm expression just now.
Then she sniffed her red scarf.
Continuing to watch movies in the bedroom is really reckless.
My sister cried and called her boyfriend, begging hard, heartbroken.
Brandon heard the sound and leaned his head against the door, heartbroken.
When he was with his sister, he almost avoided her gaze. Cold, hidden.
Typical intimacy fear.
There was something in his heart that he couldn't say and couldn't change.
Dialogue while waiting for the subway:
"Leave me alone"
"I just want it to stay there,"
he said when his sister cleaned his clothes.
He didn't know how to comfort his broken-hearted sister. Just mentioning whether she is short of money, not talking about her and himself.
Then he teased his sister.
The more you look, the less like brothers and sisters, like lovers.
Brandon burst into tears as he listened to his sister sing.
When his sister asked him what he thought, Brandon was perfunctory, reluctant to talk about his true feelings.
Real talk is the process of revealing oneself.
The boss told the truth, and Brandon turned his attention and fled.
Brandon couldn't open up.
When he came back with the wine, he was very uncomfortable and didn't speak when he saw his boss holding his sister's hand.
As if powerless.
I don't want to interfere with others, and I don't want others to interfere with myself.
keep distance.
Once the distance is crossed, he can't stand it and must drive away anyone who crosses the line.
The hot fight between his boss and his sister made him extremely troubled and irritable.
Why? The picture of going out for a run is just the music in his earphones - thinking about nothing, it's none of his business.
The sister got into his bed.
He was angry, angry, bitter.
So far I have made a bold guess: he likes his sister, but this is a forbidden love - incest.
Why guess so? Because I've seen "Love in the Wind" - about brother-sister love, in which the elder brother likes the younger sister, so he has to avoid the younger sister, otherwise he will shout at the younger sister-shows a very contradictory and strange attitude.
A lot of that can be explained.
Because I want to get rid of the incestuous love, I run away from my sister first. Then in various ways of neglect, let her give up and stop pestering, or use violence-force her to leave.
Being bullied by the boss in the company, his face is stunned.
"What a perverted bastard to spend a day on it"
Actually, I think my boss is more perverted. He obviously has a family, but he is messing around outside, and he looks righteous. It seems that nothing happened after finishing the work, and there is no shame in Brandon.
Brandon's date with Marianne also revealed some of his inner thoughts.
He is unable to maintain a stable emotional relationship
, his attitude towards life tends to be pessimistic
, and the reality is too bad for him to bear.
In this city, there is the possibility of being watched everywhere.
The computer was sent to check that
Sixi broke in and
saw someone having sex in the building.
He wanted to keep his privacy and did a lot of shameful things. He felt naked.
So I try to take off the cloak of 'shame' and create another self-a self that can hide the true self.
I was seen masturbating by my sister. One was caught off guard.
very angry.
"What do you want from me?"
"What do you want?" He
also didn't accept his sister's apology.
There is no reason for him here.
When his sister saw a pornographic film, his image was completely destroyed, and he was going to rebuild it again.
Throw away the yellow disc, yellow book and computer.
Open room with Marianne.
But there is no problem with strangers.
He is constantly looking for new stimuli.
Xixi: "Why are you so angry?" That's the point.
Sixi: "I'm sorry."
Brandon: "You're always sorry, you say this." There is something in the words.
Sishi: "I'm not perfect, I've made mistakes, but I'm trying." Honest girl.
Then came the cold violence.
Sixi: "I always make you angry, and I don't know why?"
Brandon: "No, you pitted me."
Brandon: "You cornered me, and then you pitted me. "
Brandon: "How can you help me?" Didn't make it clear what it was.
Xixi: "Since I left last time, I never heard from you again."
Xixi: "Don't you think that is very sad?"
Xixi's words were candid and expressed her true feelings.
And Brandon's language is always ambiguous, defiant, and unspoken. The seemingly neutral words revealed resentment.
He was very dissatisfied with his sister's behavior. Can't say because of his pain. So all the words that made Xixi more and more confused.
Once you say that you like your sister, what will be the consequences.
May lose her forever.
The pain that cannot be released has to be numb and forget itself through indulgence.
He couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't cross the line.
He could not deny the feeling in his heart, struggling on the edge of morality.
In the end, her sister cut her wrists and committed suicide.
White shirt, red blood.
It hurts to look at.
No sound, that sense of helplessness.
Brandon took out his phone tremblingly.
The tone of the film is dark. High-rise buildings, thick transparent glass windows, colorful neon lights, no sunlight. People live in concrete lattices and walk through underground passages and subways. Intoxicated service places provide people with fantasies.
The film attacks the dark side of the city: loneliness, alienation, indulgence (hidden with reasonable appearances), and no trust. These are irresistible to the individual, either disguised or depraved.
Will he be saved?
The end credits continue with the opening credits, but the married woman has changed. Mysterious smile. In the end is to seduce or escape?
Will Brandon catch up?
