Yimei has broken through the beautiful image that has been created for so many years, with a small beard and a mouth full of foul language. The style of the entire movie is psychedelic and violent. But in the end it can be said to be a lonely ending.
For the analysis of human nature, people who have seen the movie probably have different opinions. The clues provided by the entire police station as a microcosm of society all lead to an ending about destruction. The different groups represented by different characters can be said to be slightly deformed and abnormal, but from a certain point of view, the roles of these characters Purity leads to this impression - that is to say, because their characteristics are too distinctive, they will not be so prominent in a person in reality, but because they are supporting roles, such character shaping is more conducive to the protagonist of the movie and the prominence of the subject.
I have to mention the roles of the female colleague Amanda in the police station and the protagonist bruce. It can be said that when the movie is not over, only these two people have multi-faceted personalities. bruce is the protagonist, and it can be said that the multiplicity of characters is deserved. And Amanda is the most competitive character you can find in this police station when you look at the overall situation, and it also directly threatens bruce's promotion. The opposite side represented by bruce shows many of bruce's missing side, boyfriend, regular life, the so-called morality. In fact, it can be seen from the collapse of bruce in front of her that bruce has a strong yearning for normal life and normal human nature, but in the difference between this yearning and reality, he chose an extreme way of avoidance - If you can't get it, you will spit it out.
This is also the source of the tragic character of this character, the flawed character that leads to this implicit and dangerous tendency - as long as there are enough coincidences to lead to the complete collapse of this character - a series of series from davie to the separation of wife and children 's special experience has led to the amplification of this defect until its destruction.
It can be said that bruce's experience is very special. His emotions were not satisfied when he was a child. He was responsible for his brother's death. When he grew up, becoming a police officer was too stressful. Become a monster. In reality, few people experience so many things at the same time, and this coincidental experience makes bruce a special case.
But so many coincidences have laid the groundwork from the very beginning. Bipolar disorder usually develops in middle age and is based on depressive experiences in childhood and even adolescence. That is to say, the unsatisfied thirst for attention in his youth and the unexpected death of his younger brother have actually made a huge push for the future. It also made his death an ironic inevitability.
The character setting of the widow is the last bright color in this film, and the meaning of redemption she represents has been deeply analyzed in other film reviews. But I am more inclined to explain her appearance as: choice.
In this film, bruce made a lot of wrong choices, almost all the way to the dark place to the point of no return. But this woman, like Amanda, inspired the hidden side of bruce, but compared to Amanda's hypocritical "brightness", the widow represented a brighter group - kindness. Bruce's yearning for love and kindness caused him to cry when he saw the widow, and even in the end it was because of the widow's turn that he felt that he might never encounter light and love again in his life, so he chose to commit suicide. The act of stepping on the chair at the end, I almost began to hope that the widow could wait a little longer so that he was fully capable of balancing this farce to end this farce and choose a better life.
However, after being betrayed by the light so many times, the final benevolence of the light is so ironic that bruce refuses to choose it, but returns to God's sleeve.
Finally, I want to mention the concept of the corner, which is the concept in "Cold Blood". In the final analysis, the location of the execution room is depicted as a corner of human nature. Here I think it also applies to our protagonist, such a life, a life in a corner, a delicate balance that is barely maintained in the corner. Just like the dismantling of Floyd's mysterious wall, the protagonist's heart is subjected to a devastating impact from outside the corner, and finally goes to destruction.
It confirms Nietzsche's sentence: human life is both a process and a sinking.
