[Outsider•Sense of Existence] The film opens with a quote from the existential philosophy and writer—Camus’s "Outsider"—"The distance between my soul and me is so far away, but my existence is so real." ——Undoubtedly, this sentence can almost clarify the emotional tone of the whole film-loneliness. The film is a pseudo-documentary about Henry's trivial but coherent stories. At the beginning, it was a close-up of his face, and the interview was conducted in a dimly lit room-but there were no interviewers-more like an exchange with a movie viewer. There is a line in this line that says to a third person "...I don't need anything" and a eviction order is issued, which seems to be to have a good chat with the interviewer (or movie viewer)-in fact it also shows He is used to rejecting others, even if they are out of zeal. The similarity between Henry and Mersault, the protagonist of the novel The Outsider, is precisely this sense of distance from the world. This bored posture originates from the knowledge of the essence of life-just as the phrase "to live is the meaning of life, and the desire of the senses is the fact that we cannot avoid every day", under the premise of intuitive feelings, it is concealed It becomes meaningless and feelings don't need to exist. Therefore, whether H or Mersault, after seeing through the world as a ridiculously operating machine, they become an outsider on their own. H's grandfather said that he always closed himself up since he was a kid. That is to say, since childhood, he has been used to being alone and communicating with himself-this kind of self-thinking is undoubtedly an extremely lonely thing. After seeing the essence of life, he tried his best to control his emotions and hoped to effectively manipulate it-hoping that he could become an empty leather bag. In class H's leather bag was thrown onto the wall by the student. He said blankly to the provocative student, "Listen, that bag doesn't feel anything, it's empty. I didn't provide you with a certain kind of feeling that hurts. "This sentence is his request of himself. He has the habit of keeping a journal, dumping all his pain in one notebook. And I hope that grandpa’s diary may also guide him to redeem his crimes (his mother may have told him the truth about his life experience in the tapes left behind on his deathbed); it was also before the time when he gave the female student Meredith’s diary. Said that if you write down the pain, you will no longer be entangled by it. This kind of emotional transfer and pouring is for oneself to reach the state of "empty purse"-empty, without any feeling. He did not realize that this way is also lonely-because people only realize that they are not alone when they communicate with others. Or, all he needs is such a lonely way. But man is not a leather bag after all, he himself cannot use this kind of recording hand Duan has reached the level of not being moved by people, and not worrying about loneliness. Therefore, he also uses some external methods to isolate the connection with the world, such as not establishing long-term relationships-avoiding the favors of female teachers (one of the reasons is the loss of the most important woman in childhood-the fear of losing the mother Other intimacy); constantly changing schools in order not to be restrained, and ignoring the bitter pleading of the girl Erica and resolutely sending her to the orphanage. Despite this, he was occasionally tortured by emotional out-of-control. In every emotional outburst—for example, after his grandfather locked himself in the bathroom, he scolded the nurse and shed tears on the bus, he must be in pain at that moment. [Body•Soul] "The awakened person, the wise person said:'I am completely the body, there is nothing else; the soul is just the name of something in the body.'"-This is the way to Superman in Nietzsche's view Bridge. H thinks that he can't hold his soul because of his emotional out of control. Because of this disconnect between the soul and the body, he lacked the sense of existence-"like a crumpled banknote, flowing in society", so the emotions after being misunderstood when grandpa locked himself in the bathroom and hugged and comforted Meredith again. After losing control, there are conclusions such as inability to fully control the emotional frustration and "the body is tired of the soul". Morality and soul are created by human beings, and human choice is free. (Jean Paul Sartre) Like all typical existentialists, H believes that he can understand others and respect their choices. This was fully demonstrated in the part of the plot where Erica was engaged in the sex trade in his home after taking in Erica. In the clear rules of his life, there is no moral restriction on the girl's choice, only that such behavior is not allowed in his house. When the cat abuser was brought to the training office, H under the lens effect seemed to be a compassionate god. When the boy said "trapped, like the "cat", he was speechless. Existentialism also believes that apart from human existence, there is no morality or soul outside the body. Morality and soul are created by human beings in existence, and human beings are not obliged to observe certain Moral standards or religious beliefs, people choose freedom. So he often falls into contradictions in his thinking. This contradiction is between morality and freedom-on the one hand, he believes that morality should not be imposed on others, on the other hand. On the one hand, he thinks that teachers themselves need to guide the children acquired and help them understand the complexity of the living world. (It is to make up for their loneliness and unguided childhood) [Contradiction•Faith] "Deliberately believe in lies, even if you know They are false. Give an example from your daily life. Either... I want to be beautiful and happy; I need plastic surgery for beauty; I need to stay in shape, be outstanding, and be stylish. Young people of your generation, at the moment-they are told that women are prostitutes, bitches, who are excluded, beaten, bullied, and humiliated. This is a 24-hour non-stop MLM spiritual massacre! For the rest of our lives, we are controlled by this misconception. It is so strong that it blinds our eyes until we die. Therefore, in order to protect our minds and prevent such stupid ideas from infiltrating into our thought process, we must learn to read to activate our imagination, cultivate it, improve our self-awareness, and our belief system. We all need such skills to resist and to preserve our pure spiritual world. "This is a very wonderful line, and it is also the protagonist's analysis of his belief system. The existing concepts in this world are absorbed and accepted after H's own independent thinking. His thought wall is indestructible against those thoughts that are considered fallacies. In the novel Anna Karenina, there is a young man named Levin who has a similar spiritual experience—he often struggles for the essence of life for many years—“He just lives like this, he doesn’t know, and he also sees It is impossible for him to know what he is and why he lives in the world, and he suffers from such ignorance to such a degree that he is almost afraid that he will commit suicide. "There is also a discussion of suicide in this movie, abandoning accusations or praise, and it is more an objective statement that respects the facts. Even if you are as firm as him, you often get lost in confusion. For example, the first time you saw Erica in the movie. , He ignored her flattery and walked home straight around her. She raised her voice angrily and asked: "Where are you going? ! "In the words that have not fallen, the next shot is directly cut into-taking the bus to work. Life is almost repeated every day, but he also wonders in his heart where he is going and for what. Such confusion will make you feel confused. People’s hearts are miserable, and no one can resist the feeling of helplessness caused by doubts about themselves. Fortunately, everyone who strives to survive has found his own unique way of answering. Levin concluded that maybe people are just for it. The things we long for live. And the H in the film also clearly realizes that even if you don’t know the reason for survival, “habit” will be a good way to solve those temporarily unbearable problems; letting it go will become a way to pass confusion. [Survival•Death] H wandering the busy streets, at this time his monologue "I run away from the crowd, just like you"—here you refer to the purpose of committing suicide in his childhood. Mother. The mother's suicide was because of her unbearable relationship with her grandfather. She couldn't bear this kind of life, so she chose to escape. A teacher in the school died, and other teachers claimed that "God knows how he died", this teacher Living in a world that he believes to be enslaved by students every day is miserable. His phone recordings are full of curses and curses. He curses unruly students and unreasonable parents. After this period, insert a paragraph of Hitler’s speech, Its tone is surprisingly similar. I think what I want to express here is that this teacher is also a person who has his own extreme life beliefs. His death may be his own life. The more obvious story is the suicide of the female student Meredith. This sensitive girl is often the object of abuse by classmates and even parents because of her obesity. There is a plot in which H reads the essay he asked the students to write during the first class in class-assuming that she died in the short essay homework.
