Personally, I don't think this is a film about masculinity or feminism. Rather, it is more about revealing the endogenous diversity of human self-groups. Female addicts or male addicts, pure asexuals, asexuals with special interest, ....., sexual nature, in fact, just like our face, ever-changing and different from person to person. If a society is to maintain stability, reproduction and positive development, it will only retain the classification needed to protect the social structure, and drive various sheep into the flock in order to achieve collective homogeneity as much as possible. After all, this can be simple and rude to facilitate management and calling.
Just like the poor medical level in ancient times, there were famines, natural disasters of war, many women died before menopause. For them, if they were not told this, the life they knew was half the experience. The social purpose they have come to has been known since childhood: the first and foremost is to spread the incense and pass on the children.
In the same way, many men and women, if they have not further explored their natural instinctive type, they are still ignorant all their lives. They are only born, take exams, work, get married, (have children), and die of old age.
In the film, a man with pedophilic tendencies, before Joe, never dared to face up to his desires in a public view, until Joe's debugging and discovery gave him an experience about himself. For the first time, he felt happy because he found himself.
Sex, not love him. Sex is self-love. A kind of total release in ecstasy. When we, ourselves or with others, get excited by sexual stimulation, we love only who we find ourselves in that way.
Through sex, human beings reach from the body to the mind, from social domestication to freedom and innocence. It's that moment when everything is thriving through sexual energy so that we can be filled with what we most desire. what is that? is life itself. Yes, we touch life itself through life instinct.
Joe repeated several times, saying that society is full of malice because it is full of lies. This is undoubtedly a fact that only children do not know. But most people don't have the courage to go to themselves to protect themselves. For example, Joe's father, he didn't even dare to go out of his one-sided love, to accept the lie in his family, a lie that her daughter finally understood - his wife didn't love him. He would rather choose to be alone than to choose to be isolated.
Joe's father, that fit body, that heart full of lust, eventually turned into a fallen leaf and left in Joe's world. Joe's sexuality was the only way to fight off her serious emptiness with her own burning heat. Except for the time with her father, her soul is extremely lonely. Her soul can't even feel her body. The only way to have sex is to let her feel the surging vitality in the natural pumping of her body. Fascinated, addicted, and fascinated by the vigorous power of her own life, she went further and further.
Compared with men, women's ego types are mostly more subtle and subtle. So this movie will choose women to cut into the main body of the story (purely I think it is relatively easy to shoot).
In fact, under the sexual characteristics displayed by human beings, all people are androgynous. Select Joe, such a pure and beautiful woman, from the awakening of sexual consciousness (Is it too early at the age of 2? I personally can't remember the event of 2 years old) to the exit of physiological energy (about 50 years old), she actually slowly finally finally, herself It has become its own soul tree -- a tree with deep roots in the crevices of mountains and rocks, trying its best to break free and stay away from the root as much as possible.
She was so deeply loved by her father that she never gave up her self-love, and she angrily angered women who were sex addicts who underestimate her own nature. She bravely said she was different from them. That's because she's not compromising in a world where social norms are framed. She was too brave, too sober. She has her own sanctuary, not a standard answer: "loving" him in exchange. It was the answer she found herself: unconditional self-love.
Joe is not a world-weary person. On the contrary, she knows how to love people because of her self-love. She can't see society in her eyes, all she sees are individuals. She chatted with the professor who helped her all night, very calm and safe. That's because she believed the professor was who he appeared to be.
And he actually has another look of him, doesn't he? He is a liar. He is not asexual at all, the painting behind the door in his room, Mrs.H…. He just used those laurel-like human cultures to behave politely in front of a strange woman and maintain a gentle appearance on the surface. He said that the heroine's love is superficial, and I think his kindness is only superficial.
Therefore, when the heroine discovered the deceit of the professor, she surpassed her anger and directly found the gun and exploded his head. If the society is only gentle, respectful and simple, she will also be gentle and loving, but if there are only gears and blades hidden under the veil, she will take up her own weapon. Before, at the expense of youth, now, defend with life.
Sex when she was young, maybe just because she was weak at that time. Years later, she burned the car directly and drew her gun. This film does not distinguish between men and women, it only distinguishes between the pseudo-civilization of society (the Jewish professor as an observer of social ethics explaining life with universal culture) and the pure nature of human beings (Joe female self-reporter). The ending may just be an idealist's tears turned into a bullet, temporarily satisfying the expressor's subjectivity.
It is impossible to shoot social absurdity and absurdity, and society also has life and maintains its teeth. Individuals are just a leaf in the world, each wandering or wandering. If you can't find SoulMate, hug for warmth, become your own Soul Tree, and work hard to love yourself.
True, never shame. Lies deserve to die.
