is just a random film, a psychological drama.
Susanna is a mentally sensitive and deranged female college student who was diagnosed as a borderline personality and sent to a mental hospital for suspected suicide by overdose on painkillers, inability to concentrate, and even promiscuity! This is a world outside the normal world, where Susan saw the inner world of other marginalized people, and found her crazy insanity in it, rediscovered herself in the extreme dark pain, and returned to the bright world!
This is a film that deeply explores the inner world of people on the edge of spirituality. We observe their crazy world with the mentality of being a normal person, but when we enter their world, we see not only other people, but also our own shadow! This world is not what we imagined. There are many things that confuse, oppress, and attack us. We are also angry and try to resist, but the final approach is to surrender! If you don't give in, you can only escape, escape back into the world of yourself, let yourself go, let this world go, or dress yourself up as a crazy mocker and use a self-conceited image to cover up your true self!
Susanna in the film is like a blurred sheep! After graduating from high school, she lost her purpose in life, didn't want to go to college, stayed at home all day, never left her cigarette, was passive and world-weary, and obtained some relief by fantasizing about death! Finally, one day, she took 50 aspirin at a time. After the rescue, she was considered a borderline mental patient and was sent to a mental hospital for treatment! In this way, the half-truth she walked into a special group of people! From being surprised by the strange behavior of her patients at the beginning, to becoming friends with them, to understanding their stories and inner world, she gradually found herself and extended her hands to the world!
Daisy in the hospital, fooling herself into thinking she's recovered, returns to the apartment her dad bought for her. On the surface, she is healthy and has a sweet compatibility. She lives in a newly decorated apartment and has a lingering cat. Everything looks so normal, but she endures pain in the dark. She scratches her hand with a knife. Her heart was still controlled by the devil, but she dared not admit it, and was immersed in illusory comfort until Lisa pierced her. In the end, she chose to cut her wrists, hang herself, and go completely into darkness, maybe also light. Her heart is already dead, she just uses all the sweet appearances to decorate and nourish her dry and numb heart! The biggest devil in her heart is that she doesn't dare to face herself and is immersed in an unextricable illusion! How many of us have such a devil in our hearts!
Lisa is the same. On the surface, she is so reckless and fearless, but she has long forgotten to breathe. . She was extremely resistant to society, but did not dare to face the dark corners of her heart, so she vented with indifference and unscrupulous crazy behavior to cover up her inner panic. In the movie, it is said that all the people who come here are to let them say the words buried in their hearts that they dare not say! Fortunately, in the end of Susanna's heated debate, Lisa finally turned her thoughts to self-reflection. It wasn't how much the society hated her, but she hated herself. What she had to fight was her inner self who had not seen the sun for a long time. ! ! I hope she can get out of the devil in the darkness soon and find her true self!
What kind of "madman" is produced in what kind of era environment. America in the 1960s was full of mistakes, three famous assassinations, the Vietnam War, and the chaotic lives of young people. The turbulent, noisy society is surging, and the youth is represented by the hippie movement. They deny rationality, emphasize instinct, strongly oppose the moral standards of the old culture, and call for freedom. Rebellion, it is true that they want to seek a non-materialistic way of life, strange clothes, drugs, rock music, and gregarious living are their characteristics! They lost themselves in rebellion! Some are unwilling to join the ranks of rebellion or obey tradition, so they choose to give up, rejecting each other with the world in silence, turning themselves into madmen, and fighting the world without rules!
