"Sharp Weapon": Pathological Society Breeds Pathological Psychology and Personality
Original: Jiandan is not bad Jiandan's journey today
"Sharp Tool" is a psychological drama that integrates suspense, crime, and thriller elements. It is edited into a movie. Flashbacks and hallucinations intersect with the normal timeline. The lighting and sound effects, as well as the actors' wicked expressions and eyes, must have physiological stimulation that makes the audience feel fearful.
Although the movie has used all kinds of tricks and scheming to create a thriller, the core is actually the genetic factors of mental illness, the influence of the original family on people's growth, and the shadow of childhood.
Three women on the poster, one mother and two daughters. The mother was also abused by her mother during her childhood, and her mental illness continued to develop, causing her to exert double pressure on her three daughters in the name of "love and authority", causing the death of one of the daughters and directly threatening the lives of the other two. The three daughters, on the other hand, assumed masochistic, masochistic and sadistic personalities respectively, and developed their own destiny accordingly.
Genetic factors are an inevitable and unavoidable origin for us. Inheriting high-quality and healthy genes is naturally a blessing. Just like the second generation of rich people, they can sit back and enjoy the shadow of their ancestors. Groups that inherit bad or even pathological genes will naturally lament their bad fate, but they are born with deficiencies that can be made up for the day after tomorrow. The acquired family and social environment can transform genes and, of course, cause mutations.
The eldest daughter, Camilla, broke away from her mother's control with her strong, independent and resolute character, but she could not get out of the shadow of her sister's death. Fortunately, she left her original family and birth environment by studying and then working. Limit the development of their own diseased genes, and try to heal.
The youngest daughter Emma is not only a victim but also a perpetrator. Her spiritual and psychological growth has mutated in the environment of a perverted family and an unscrupulous town, expanding the family disease and developing it into a social violence problem.
Although the film selects a family with a history of genetic mental illness to interpret the story, it even popularizes the "surrogate Munchausen syndrome" disease (presented in the film as Odella deliberately creates the child's disease so that he can take care of them, satisfy the desire for control, and to show their love in front of others). However, the abnormal social atmosphere of the town is the real cause of people's madness. There are fathers who "love my daughter" who "I'd rather she be killed than raped"; there are girls who will do anything to get in the newspaper and betray her boyfriend regardless of their reputation. Then there are the hypocritical old women who ridicule and flatter them in person; the bored middle-aged women who indulge in childbirth, gossip, and divorce tragedies; idle men in alcohol, cheating, and small talk; Teenagers who kill time on adventures.
The film presents a morbid social environment, with all kinds of morbid social groups of men, women and children. Such a climate cannot produce bright beauty, but can only breed darkness, sin, bacteria and disease. This is a model of socio-cultural genetic influence provided to us in addition to pathological genetics, and the author seems to be pessimistic that this is also an unchangeable and uncontrollable part of life. Therefore, Camilla chose to take Emma to escape.
However, we are a cell of society after all, and the construction of a sick society has nothing to do with us. Can we do our part to heal the sick society? What's more, there is no place to escape in this society and this earth, it is better to gather enough courage and send a little light!
