from the "Fast and the Furious 6" and a series of animated films. Ray's latest work, The Best Bid. Unexpectedly, a movie with suspense from beginning to end made me feel depressed at the end. I have been struggling with the height of thought I want to express at the end of the movie. In the middle of the night after watching the movie, I suddenly realized a little life truth outside the story, and I felt very satisfied.
The male protagonist Vijito is an antique bidder who has been in the business for decades. He is withdrawn and eccentric, and has a soft spot for painting portraits of women. He often uses his position to deliberately identify valuable antiques in the hands of collectors as imitations, in order to At the auction, his accomplices bid at a low price and finally became his own private collection. Vijito is gratified and even proud of the secret room hidden behind the glove showcase in the cold white home. If the audience is brought in for the first time by him, they will be shocked by the portraits of various women hanging all over the space. , they looked calmly in the direction of admiring the artist, with unique and mysterious emotions in their eyes. Vijito often sat in front of these portraits, enjoying the undivided attention of all the women, which relieved his nearly lifelong loneliness. No one knows his secret.
However, a mysterious and strange woman's call for help broke Vijito's life. The mysterious avoided seeing, the mysterious antique price auction, including the mysterious gear accessories in the basement of the deep boudoir compound where the woman lived, made Vijito right. Antique sensitivities intensify little by little. However, the closer to the goal of valuable antiques that Vijito had hoped to get, the more Vijito fell into an unexpected emotion and fell in love with this mysterious woman. "Crazy things will cover up falsehoods." Indeed, Vijito, a wily art appraiser, failed to easily identify the authenticity of this premeditated love art, and finally used the antique paintings on the walls of his secret room. As a bid for what he thought was true love, in the end he only got an ordinary oil painting.
However, as I understand it, Vijito was not disappointed by the auction of fake love fakes, he firmly believed: "There is also something real on the fake. When copying other people's paintings, the forger can't resist the temptation to put Add his own things, and the forger will eventually betray himself and reveal his artistic sensitivity." Therefore, he believed that even if a woman pretended to be a fake love to deceive him, the truth must have been revealed, so Vijito At the end of the film, he found a pub on Prague Square that the woman had mentioned, and he expected to wait until the woman reappeared.
Some people feel that the end of the film is very sad, because the old man's life savings was deceived in an instant, and he still loves the liar? I don't think the point of the story is to tell a tragedy. This is also the most interesting and worth pondering part of this film - how can life be full of pride? In Vijito's life of loneliness but not lack of wealth, he has no intention of getting along with other people sincerely, he is selfish and indifferent, and turns a blind eye to his own loneliness, because he seems to have no heart and no emotion. When eating in a high-end restaurant, a person has to occupy a very good position and occupy a large table. Vijito ignores the strange eyes of people on him. When the waiter brings a cake to celebrate his birthday, he assumes that tomorrow is his birthday. The reason is neither to blow out the candle, nor to taste the cake, nor to accept, let alone thank, the kindness of others. Even an old friend who has won valuable antique paintings for him at auction for many years, Vijito never wanted to take a look at his old friend's paintings. Even when he retired, Vijito's relationship with his old friend was nothing but money. trade.
Such a cold-blooded person is still greedy after sitting on priceless antiques. Until the end of being deceived and losing the whole game, in fact, it is not worthy of the audience's sympathy. However, what is worth pondering in this story is that in the process of Vijito's little intervention into the mysterious woman's house, he approached the woman with hypocritical care with the purpose of acquiring more valuable antiques. In order to explain the true meaning of the phrase "there is always truth above the false", he also betrayed himself while imitating the forged art of "emotion", because "the forger cannot resist the temptation to put his own Add to that, and the forger will eventually betray himself." As a result, Vijito fell into the trap designed by the woman and the accomplices. These liars also successfully created a carefully forged "love" fake. However, at this time, Vijito could no longer be identified. At the last auction in his life, he bought this fake artwork with the highest bid he had saved in his life. When he understood everything, he probably felt that life was absurd.
Thinking of this, I suddenly laughed in thinking after watching the movie for a long time. I have to say that the director is still best at describing the life experience of a living individual. You will be completely taken in by him and feel the diversity of the world and the life Seems like a pre-arranged logic of fate. The same goes for The Pianist at Sea.
Perhaps Vijito would be so proud of his life without encountering a female liar. In his lifetime, while constantly appraising antiques, he continued to obtain precious antiques that made his heart move. However, how can life go on like this? For a shrewd and experienced old appraiser, it is not easy for him to be deceived. However, the liar skillfully used the point that made him "crazy", which was originally an antique robot, but later Turning to love again, grasping Vijito firmly on the two points of his nature and the only thing lacking in his life, making him fall into the set trap and lose everything.
Therefore, hateful people are all sad. The ending of the film is cleverly composed and the camera is pushed and pulled, which not only sympathetically shows the desolation of Vijito's falling in love and waiting for no results, but also arouses the audience's thinking with a little aftertaste: even if Vigie He knew he was being cheated, but he still kept recalling the moments he had with the woman, memorizing the pub in Prague Square that she had mentioned, and came here in person, confidently telling the waiter that he was not alone and that he was waiting for another. A person. Against the background of the whole tavern decorated with clock gears, Vijito is in the rotating gears of the clock, waiting with sadness but with a glimmer of hope, because he still refuses to give up his views on counterfeiting: "The fake will also be on it. There is something real, and when copying someone else's painting, the forger can't resist the temptation to add his own, and the forger will eventually betray himself and reveal his artistic sensibility."
Vijito may still see it that way . This fake "love" that he paid a lot of money for, although the forger, the woman whose name was not actually "Claire", had meticulously faked the emotion, but Vijito believed that there was always some kind of true emotion of the woman in it. , will betray his original intentions.
Will the woman come?
The director ended the story at the right time. This is an ending that will be submerged in the passage of time. Maybe it will come, maybe it won't come. Vijito will stay in the fading movie with an unexpected plot in his life. in the screen. What is left to the audience are emotions that are worthy of constant recollection. Is it so easy to distinguish between true and false?
