3+5 this interesting addition element

3+5 is really an interesting combination element.
The first 3 and the last 5 are joe's first sex positions. When following the rhythm of the movement, the eye-catching and a little offensive numbers popped out one by one on the screen, and he was instantly humorous by this combined addition calculation. At the beginning, I just thought it was interesting and smiled knowingly. When I saw the end of the second part, I decided to show this interesting math stalk.
1 In the Western world, it is not regarded as a number, but as the original quality of the law behind the number. Other numbers are born from it, so it has no sexual orientation. So in the Western world, 3 became the first odd number and was masculine, symbolizing the ability to reproduce and multiply. Pythagoras and his school believed that everything in the world is determined by the Trinity. 3 has the meaning of beginning, middle, and end, and is responsible for harmonizing the two ends of the beginning and the end, thus symbolizing the harmony between the opposites. In terms of both sexes, men and women are representatives of yin and yang, and when it comes to sex (a combination of yin and yang), the appearance of 3 (harmony) is a beautiful embodiment of sex itself. It can be seen that Lavon is beautiful about sex itself. The point of view is in favor.
5 is composed of 3+2 in the West, that is, odd (masculine) + even (feminine), which is also the sum of similarity and dissimilarity. The combination of yin and yang symbolizes marriage, implying a proper relationship between men and women. The male is the higher number 3, and the female is the lower number 2. The sum of similarities and differences is a symbol of justice, so 5 implies power. mean.
The first 3 strokes are positive in themselves, and the last 5 are further deepening, completely erupting the male's desire to conquer. This method is suitable and interesting for both sexes. At first it was temptation, and then it was conquering. How many relationships did not happen like this? At the end of the first three and the last five, Lavon’s joke-like humor is somewhat satirical on the surface. In essence, you have to see that he is still a patriarch in nature. 3 and 5 are both male symbols in a certain sense, so the arranged number game for addition only deepens this point. Some people say that the characters in Lavon’s movies are two-sided, just like Lavon’s own idiots and geniuses, the characters in his movies should also be double-sided, there is no pure distinction between good and bad, no fixed side at all. Like Joe's life, no one can give an inherent criterion. But after watching the movie, I think he is more willing to admit that he is a genius in his heart. His ambition is strong enough for you to be afraid, but he usually confuses you in an idiotic way. People who have watched his movies should be able to feel his rebelliousness and rebellion. In his movies, you can always find the strong resistance against the world in the characters. It is from "Dancer in the Dark". Bjork is the joe in "Female Addict". The appearance of 3 and 5 is exactly a kind of power to resist and accept, and this kind of power is more fundamentally from men in the movie.
8 is not a fuel-efficient element either. 3+5=8, in Egypt, "absolute" claims: "I am one, become two, become four, become eight, and then I am one again". Eight is the number of raw power or influence. These four pairs of powers are called "night", "darkness", "secret" and "eternity". So in the West, 8 is the number that symbolizes rebirth, the number of resurrection, and the number of eternity. Lavon fits this theorem in the form of eight chapters, which shows the irresistibility of sex addiction in form, and uses the first break of 3+5 in the content to imply the crazy life that Joe will have. The introduction of all kinds of knowledge in the movie is a kind of story-telling skill, and it is also an immersive display of life. In this way of reappearance, what I see more is only the short-lived, whether it is beautiful or ugly, even the short-lived but ironic self-salvation.
8 is still the incarnation of 1. Lavon tells the story in an endless loop in the final analysis. How could a scheming director like him easily make you feel it, so it is not difficult to understand the little girl he arranged to succeed. Lavon, this "genius" is not reconciled to mediocrity. It's a bit more complicated, and in the final analysis, he has returned the problem to the principle of roundness. Nature and laws are beyond your control, so all you can do is struggle. Just as Joe later said when he met his bad boyfriend, there is always a dark way to go between the two doors. You always have to keep groping in that gray area. This is not the case in her life. When the time has passed, when you have another chance to look back, although it is a matter of fact, you can never tell whether all this is right or wrong after all.
Morality? religion? Life? science? Values? Probably only Lavon, a genius "idiot" who dares to put it together and make use of sex to molest him. It is true that the boring ones are more tired, and love a quirky director who loves more.
To say that my feelings about watching "Female Addicts" are obviously not growing up to salvation. For me, I prefer to use the term "needles" to describe this movie. This is not the case for many people. After walking around in their own lives and groping around for a long time, they are not finally lost in this circle.
Plug-in: When I saw the 3+5 number combination appear again at the end of the second part, I really want to say that Lavon is still a director who loves the virgin complex.

    I thought I could only watch the top part in Europe this time, but I didn't expect to catch up with the premiere of the bottom part as soon as I arrived in Amsterdam. With the evolution of the story of the narrator, Joe, the rhythm, mood and upper part of the film are completely different, and the shocking black humor is gradually led by gray emotions to a slightly orthodox value pursuit, but it has to come to such a very ironic ending.

    In the second part, the heroine has accepted herself and is as brave as a man. Von Trier’s film world has blurred moral boundaries. It can accept promiscuous sex with the heroine, but it explodes the head of the hypocrites at the end.
