It's not so much about class as it is about the various types of people in this world. The background setting of the movie is pointed out at the beginning. This platform is a hole and a prison, and it is a place where people who fall down are detained. Except for those who came to this place voluntarily like the male protagonist, others are prisoners with stains. The male protagonist also voluntarily applied to come to this purgatory that he did not know about because he wanted to quit smoking. Therefore, it can be considered that this is similar to a kind of prison in the future world. Such a place may exist in the form of a reformatory school. The reason why the administrator builds the platform may be the existence of reforming prisoners. It is the person who fell down. If you think of this as a microscopic human society, here I think that first of all, the film reflects a world view of the creator. Most of the people in this world, human nature is dirty and cannot overcome their nature. Yes, it is ignorant self-interest who only looks at the present, only for the lack of thinking at the moment. I remembered a game theory game I played, which also divides human beings into different types of villains, and sets different numbers of different types of people to play the game, what kind of people will be left in the world in the end. Judging from the characters reflected in the film, the author mentioned that the number of people of each type of human beings was arranged according to what he wanted. Except for the main protagonist and supporting roles, the other cannon fodder and background boards were most of the people mentioned above. From another angle, see this as a world, we are all observers above this hole, it seems like a large-scale experiment set up by the director himself for us to watch. He set the background process and the main line and ending according to his ideas. The director has set the variable of human according to his own world view and control, and explores that in a limited resource and extreme situation, all human desires are condensed into enjoying food, which represents the upper, lower and lower layers and falling people. , it can be regarded as class. Different types of people under each class are randomly assigned. When managers are excluded, the purpose of the experiment may be to explore that in the absence of state machinery, class is the only way to determine resources, and human beings can No spontaneous formation of solidarity and mutual benefit for all human beings. From the experimental results given by the author, the only way to deal with the vast majority of people is the violence of the "savior", and the justice of this savior is very important. It all depends on whether the justice of the savior is really fair, and from the feedback from the movie, we have to see that the premise of the savior is that he has the greatest justice under the highest wisdom. Therefore, relative absolute justice and relative justice are not the focus here and I will not repeat them. male protagonist A rare thinker, pioneer, practitioner, savior, and leader in human society. The difference between him and the woman who holds the dog is that he judges the situation, can adapt when he recognizes the reality, has decision-making and execution ability, and can convince and follow the leadership. He gave up comfort, prepared for danger in times of peace, and cherished justice. The woman who holds the dog chooses the person she thinks guilty to come to this hole to be punished. Symbolizing the management decision-makers under the system builders, their status is also extremely high, at least outside the class divided by this experiment. When she got sick, I only saw her as an opportunity to get into the well, just like the opportunity for those high-ranking rulers to go deep into the grassroots. The director let the person who symbolizes the ruler's management and decision-making status enter the well and see everything under the management and management maintained by him. This character design symbolizes those who talk about moral autonomy because of their superior living background and do not understand the sufferings of the world. Ideal pacifists, talkers without practical experience, they may be kind, but their butts decide their heads. Judging from who she can choose to be her roommate, she chooses the male protagonist, and she finally chooses to commit suicide in despair, the director's views on this type of person. They are romantic and kind, but unrealistic. They are also cowardly and dare not face reality. They are dreamers without practical spirit. Although they are kind, they are ignorant and not wise enough. They are beautiful but fragile. She is also unable to make the people accept her rule, and unable to take measures to change everything, ultimately fails to convince the people. The end is tragic and sad. This kind of person is destined to be a sacrificer of a beautiful vision, not a savior. They can only be executors, not decision makers. old man Only looking at the obvious interests and information in front of oneself, refined egoist, gentleman on the surface, selfish, hypocrite. He has tried to shake the male protagonist's value system from the very beginning, and believes that his values are the only rules for survival in this world. He believes that he is correct, and his practices and ideas are wise. Such people are not born to look down on others. And as far as the old man and the male protagonist said, you kill me and I still exist, they belong to each other, and he has always existed in the male protagonist's fantasy or thought. My analysis is that human beings are not saints, and even human beings who exist as saviors are coexisting with good and evil. In addition, in the last few scenes, the old man appeared and told him what should be in the Bible. It was roughly "walking side by side until this point, and fate is equally favored". Here I am over-interpreting it, maybe it reflects the director's three views that people, regardless of good or bad, fate will not choose to come to bad luck because of human character, etc. It also implies the ending of the male protagonist's martyrdom and death. And the final outcome of this experiment is not one person's efforts to turn the tide, but the result of the joint action of all people. Black people should have a certain degree of conscience in their hearts. If they want to break this rigid resource allocation system, they have no ability to be leaders, but they can be inspired to act as staunch executors and helpers. It is commendable to follow the savior. Brave, tenacious and loyal warrior. Asian woman I think this female character is the director's highest praise for women in the entire film, and the most humiliating character. I think she should have the same romantic fantasy and conscience and justice in her heart as the male protagonist. As for the elaboration that the woman holding the dog chose her to enter the prison, she chose the ukulele to bring in, she wanted to be like Marilyn Monroe, I think her original symbol should be a romantic, passionate, charming and fantasy woman , and it dares to resist, tenacious and selfless, silent and great, brave and agile. Another digression is from the elaboration of the dog-holding woman. I can see the director's cognition and preference for Asian women. He thinks that Asian women are mysterious and charming, but this kind of beauty is regarded as a dog-holding woman by cultural traditions. The symbolic administrators are scorned, suppressed and restrained by those in power and traditional cognition, but they are still humiliated and selfless. As for the Asian woman, on the one hand, I think she and the male protagonist share the same ideal, and on the other hand, they support each other when they are in distress, and there is also a picture of erotic desire in it. There is a symbolic meaning, that is, the soul mate of the "Savior" who shares the same ideal in life. The quality of this woman also reflects the director's quality aesthetics for women and partners. These are all aspects of her symbolism as a female partner. On the other hand, as I mentioned earlier in my interpretation, it has been a long time since she came to this hole. What is the change in her character from a beautiful and lovely little woman to a decisive "so-called lunatic"? It can be analyzed from her character behavior. As a person who has existed in a hole for a long time, she did not choose to be like other men or women, and accept the arrangement of fate in whichever class she is honest and peaceful. Since this child cannot exist, why would she do it? Such unreasonable behavior. I made the following interpretation, which I think is the character and symbol that the director gave to this character as a female savior. And women's salvation and bravery are universally linked to motherhood. Excluding female characters From another point of view, she is the same as the male protagonist as a savior, and the Asian woman chooses another way, that is, she constantly shuttles to different classes, and executes those who do not deserve food under her justice. people. The male protagonist's justice is fairness and everyone can survive on average, her justice is justice, and it is about the quality of "survival of the fittest" with conditions. It can be seen that she kills all the malicious people who violated her, and she not only will not hunt and kill the kind people who help her, but will choose to help. Judging from the fact that she also killed the dog, the justice of life in her eyes belongs only to human beings in such a bad situation. The male protagonist also has some sympathy for the dog, but he still goes with the woman who holds the dog. And Asian women are decisive and choose to kill dogs directly. It's just that the men didn't want to admit that filth, so they automatically ignored her selective hunting. Her hunting and fighting with men of disproportionate physical strength left her constantly wounded and ultimately dead. From the perspective of the Virgin, she still despised life, not only to herself but also to other lives. This represents the value of "survival of the fittest" in the justice of this type of "saviors" represented by Asian women. Although her standard is reasonable or even good from the audience's point of view, who can say that this is not another A kind of paranoia, this standard has always been set by the woman herself, when the woman is not a woman, when she becomes a man or gains more power, who can say that he can not change his original intention, if her standard of justice has changed Well, I won't go into details on this. In fact, she is really like a lunatic, regardless of her own life and death. But aside from the topic, it is a pity that she is such a rebel, such a savior, because of her identity as a woman, she eventually became a lunatic in the mouths of people in this world, and her way of rebuilding order was also installed by social rumors for her children. Women with motherhood and sensibility seem to be born with no reason in the general cognition of human society, nor can they be the savior of the world. Fear and power can only erupt for the sake of children. They seem to only take responsibility for children, and they also see the prejudice against women in this world. The final result can be seen that the male protagonist, as the savior who is close to the saint, adopts cooperation, that is, communication and non-cooperation, then violence, pursuing fairness and justice, and finally martyrdom and death as an ideal. The process always has violence and force deterrence, but he has the ability to believe in people. rationality and training management can produce the idea of rational wisdom. It should be based on the concept of human nature that good and evil coexist and need guidance to establish order. Asian women, as the saviors of rebellion, choose to fight violence with strength, uphold the so-called high-efficiency method of being either black or white, good or evil, and establish order by surviving the fittest. But the cave is constantly being thrown in with newcomers, which doesn't seem to work in this environment. In fact, it can be seen that the director's disapproval of this method did not set a kind of survival of the fittest under a large-scale cleaning. And Asian women's way of fighting alone will eventually perish because of weakness. Those who resort to excessive repressive violence to try to rebuild the world will eventually perish because of insufficient power. What's interesting is that in the end, these two saviors were both martyred and perished because of their own ideas about human nature. And died on the same floor, a pair of powerful, arrogant, violent, and inhuman men, they did not cooperate and resorted to violence as soon as they came up, but their strength was strong and they were counter-killed. What is the savior? If the hole is regarded as the setting of resource allocation for people outside the ruling class, the savior is to awaken the consciousness of the ruled to resist, unite the ruled to compete with the ruler, and seek the greatest well-being of the people. Wise men and fighters. At first they only wanted to establish a new order among the governed, and in the end it was just a rule under the rule, until at last they found that the essence was related to the problem between the ruled and the ruler. One link after another, this is just a circle, as if the differences in human talent and character are inherently the need to rule and be ruled. And finally the pudding and the kids. What Pudding said earlier is what the two of them want to protect with their lives. Here, I expect the ruling managers to see the current situation under the cave and increase the materials for rebuilding the order. I think the cave is regarded as a world, and it can be seen. Do hope to restore order. Children generally have the meaning of symbolizing hope in human society. In the end, the two chose to let the child eat the pudding, and somehow felt that the child was the message and hope, and also the director's expectation for the future human generation. After all, the child can be nurtured without forming three views. The coexistence of good and evil in people, the key is to see the enlightenment of education. Finally, if the pudding is the one that was sent up, on the one hand the ruling class above is like that Like a woman holding a dog, they do not feel that they have killed people, they are just enforcing the order, without thinking about the rationality of the order and the condition of the governed, they are just staunch enforcers, regardless of right or wrong. It makes sense that the butt decides the head, which leads to the existence of such an eternal error. As long as there is information exchange, there must be different degrees of misunderstanding.
