——Comment on the movie "Perfect World"
Children who lack father's love since childhood will suffer from obvious "father's lack syndrome", which is prone to adverse tendencies, mainly manifested in: shyness, timidity, emotional depression, self-abandonment, not seeking improvement, taciturn, lack of self-confidence, excessive introversion, emotional indifference , dissociative group, dislike to communicate, impulsive, capricious, fear of failure, selfishness and other character defects, serious ones may also be keen on puppy love, truancy, stealing, drug addiction, alcohol abuse, etc., and even obsessed with violence.
To sum up, there are four influences:
First, cognitive development is blocked, and IQ is obviously low.
Second, there may be obvious personality defects, such as weakness, timidity, weak willpower, lack of confidence and perseverance.
The third is the increase in the proportion of emotional disorders, such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, lack of enthusiasm, weak self-control, and dependence.
Fourth, physical developmental disorders, that is, children's height, weight, movement and reaction speed are a lot behind children of the same age. According to the latest research conducted by experts from the United States, Britain, Germany and other countries, children who suffer from "father-deficiency syndrome" when they are young are five times more likely to become poor when they grow up than ordinary children, and the dropout rate from high school is twice as high. rate is twice as high; girls are three times more likely to grow up to be single mothers.
The above statement comes from Baidu Encyclopedia, which is now a commonplace. According to the new research, I will make some additions.
Boys who lack fatherly love will have three common personality development patterns:
1. Destructive personality. Because there is no positive example from his father, because he has lost a male role model, and because he has no direction in life, boys who lack fatherly love are likely to go astray, easily led astray by unscrupulous people, and even become criminals. Because he can't feel the brightness and beauty of life, his psychology may be hopeless, and his subconscious is like this: I am not living a happy life, why should I make others happy? There are so many examples of this negative growth that it has become a consensus.
Second, homosexuality. Boys need not only emotional interaction with their mothers, but also emotional exchanges with their fathers. If this need for fatherly love is not met, the boy’s psychology and emotions will always be in a state of hunger and thirst. The next man is very likely to fill his psychological emptiness and emotional emptiness, and become his compensation as a "substitute" of fatherly love. This is another psychological common sense. The psychological root of most gay men is the lack of fatherly love. In this film, the director expresses this point of view through the mouth of the characters in the play, when the bad guy Poole is pointed at the gun by Philip,
He said to the child: "(You) live with three girls, without a father, you will become a gay in the future".
3. Jesus-type personality. In the "Bible", the birth of Jesus is interpreted as an angel's message, the Holy Spirit conceived, and the Virgin Mary conceived as a virgin and gave birth to a son. Religiously, this is of course a miracle, but if the myth is reduced to real life, Jesus is nothing more than an illegitimate child (sorry to all Christians, blasphemy). According to the research of Western scholars, Jesus' biological father should be a soldier of the Roman occupation army, because the Jews who abide by the doctrine will not do such unethical things. Joseph the carpenter did not despise the defiled Mary, and still married her according to the marriage contract, and they had several children after their marriage. Although his adoptive father Joseph was a righteous man, Jesus' position in the family was still very embarrassing. He could not get the father's love he deserved. Jesus, who suffered from discrimination and lack of father's love, cast his thirst for father's love to the kingdom of heaven, because He is a spiritual genius, and the men in the world can no longer satisfy his huge psychological desire. He regards God as his father, and at the same time he regards himself as the father of believers, and dedicates the broad love in his heart to all mankind. If you don’t have a father, you will be a father yourself. If you don’t get the love of the father, you will release the love of the father yourself to compensate yourself. Jesus founded Christianity just to give love. The essence of Christianity is one word—“love”.
In relief institutions in Western countries, or in Christian reformatories, there are also boys who have been rescued and educated to become missionaries. On the surface, they are spreading religion, but the underlying psychology is to spread "love". Christian and Catholic clergy are called "priests". , in the European and American languages, "priest" and "father" are the same word - "Father". They grow up as Jesus-type personalities.
Very few of them will become great men. Fan Zhongyan was orphaned at the age of two. He has been protecting his clan all his life, because this can allow him to satisfy his latent desire to be a father. The patriarch is the father of the family. And worry, the world will be happy and happy", but to dedicate the father's love to the children as their own children. Only when Ouyang Xiu was orphaned at the age of four would he "have fun with the people". Obama lacked fatherly love since he was a child, so he served as the president to serve the whole society, because the president is the father of a country. Nurturing others with fatherly love, dedicating to society, and saving all human beings, this is their compensation for themselves. This is the highest level of compensation, the healthiest compensation, but from the perspective of the whole society, it is healed by faith or self-healing. There are not many great personalities with healthy personality, and there are very few who become great people, because great people are geniuses. Don't expect a boy without a father to be a genius, most of them are more likely to be the first two.
Of course, it is also possible to have a mixed personality, with two or even three characteristics, and it is also possible that none of the three is just an ordinary person, but the lack of fatherly love is a virus. They will all suffer from it, because they will always be carriers of the virus, and more or less will show a certain degree of "father-deficiency syndrome".
The owner of the film announced that Chi Hayne is a hybrid personality with a lack of fatherly love. He has both destructive and Jesus-type personality characteristics, so from the heart, he is both a criminal and a great father.
But he didn't become gay. There is a very interesting segment in the play, because the little guy accidentally peeps,
Hain's attempted prostitution, this slightly erotic detail seems to be suspected of being polluted by the camera,
But it is actually a very necessary passage, it shows that there is no problem with Hein's sexual orientation, and more importantly, his love for children is pure and clean, and there is no hidden pedophilia at all, even if there is no subconscious. . Without this erotic scene, Butch would have been questioned by some people who were well-meaning or malicious or boring or just curious. The director designed this detail to smash all possible accusations.
With these psychological foundations (sorry, I'm unprofessional and poorly written), it becomes relatively easy to appreciate the film. Let's take a look at Hain's growth trajectory.
Butch Hayne's father was a habitual offender who liked to go to prostitutes. Butch was born in a brothel. His bad father was a punch to everyone around him, no matter if it was a prostitute's daughter. Influenced by him, Butch has been violent since childhood, killing people at the age of eight (to protect his mother). At the age of twelve, her mother hanged herself in the bathroom of a brothel, and an autopsy found she had terminal syphilis. And his father left him when he was six years old, and no one knows his whereabouts. He also appeared on parole after his mother's death, but he did not fulfill his father's obligations. Butch loves him from the bottom of his heart, despite the fact that he's a piece of shit, and having a bad dad is a lot better for a kid than no dad at all. This shady childhood experience doomed Hain to a bleak future. Because he didn't have his father's upbringing, he showed a strong tendency to rebel when he entered adolescence. When he was 13 years old, he stole a Ford car for a ride. He stole the car to show his father. They all drive Fords." Although Dad can't see it, in a child's imagination, Dad can see it. So he was sentenced to four years in the worst reformatory. However, the reformatory did not transform him well, although "some children learned there and some became missionaries", and Butch Hein finally grew up to be a professional criminal.
Hain has been hiding a yellowed postcard on his body,
It was a beautiful lake and mountain in Alaska, and Hayne kept the postcard for about thirty years because it was sent to him by his hapless dad, which read: "Dear Butch, just to tell you, My departure has nothing to do with you. Alaska is a beautiful place, often freezing to death, one day, you can come here, and we may get to know each other better." The
letter was short, "but very affectionate, I am old Dad is like this", even though he didn't fulfill his father's obligations, even though he often punched him in the limited time together, with this postcard and the confession of "my departure has nothing to do with you", Butch would rather believe His father loves him. He is going to Alaska to find his father. In fact, he has been looking for his father. Although it seems that he has not gone at all, what he does is almost a spiritual search for his father. Alaska, the last wilderness paradise, because my father lived there, this uncontaminated holy place became the "father's paradise" in Butch's heart.
He's been searching for this paradise all his life, and rightly it became his escape from prison.
One Halloween in the 1960s, due to chance, two criminals, Hain and Poole, formed a temporary escape partner. Poole was a real hooligan, he was a trouble and a threat, and Hain had his own way of doing things. in principle. Because there are too many differences, the two are constantly in conflict, and the alliance is brewing to disintegrate from the very beginning. Everyone can see that they will soon break up.
After escaping from prison, in order to find something to eat, the two accidentally broke into Philip's house, and an eight-year-old child appeared in front of Butch Hayne.
Butch's unforgettable eight-year-old! At this moment, Butch seems to see his childhood self. Isn't this fatherless eight-year-old boy a reappearance of himself? At this moment, the miserable childhood without father's love was superimposed on little Philip from Butch's heart. Eight-year-old Philip needs a father just as eight-year-old Butch needs a father. In Butch's eyes, the boy Philip he saw was his childhood self, and the adult Butch had enough energy to love his childhood self, so little Philip became his stand-in, and he himself acted as his father . From the external form, Butch became the father of little Philip. So when Poole insulted and beat Philip and his son, Butch shot him down, and the pistol fell to the floor. Then Butch crouched down, like a father facing his son, he instructed the child to pick up the pistol, pointed to himself and said "raise your hand", the child did as he asked, and he said with satisfaction: "That's good to say. "Where is this intrusion? This is clearly a father teaching his son how to protect himself and how to deal with a sudden attack! If it wasn't for the intrusion of the old neighbor, if it wasn't for the old man with a gun and intimidation, he should have taught the child, and he was able to get out, because he didn't intend to hurt others, just to find something to eat. When the old man drove them away with a gun, Butch first thought of the safety of the child: "Put down the gun, old man, if you want to shoot, you will hit the child." The
two criminals ran away by accident. Take children as hostages. Where are the fugitives and hostages? It is clearly a father and son trip! In order to protect his son, he did not hesitate to shoot his partner Poole who was about to hurt the child. Since then, a father-son emotional drama officially kicked off.
Butch told the child: "You are very similar to me, Philip, we are all handsome boys, we all like Rongguan Coke, and our fathers are trash---people like us must be independent in order to seek Your own destiny." Then, the emotional interaction between father and son begins.
Philip didn't play baseball with his dad, he didn't even meet his dad, because of his faith, Philip wasn't allowed to play Halloween games, but Christmas, but birthdays, no parties, never been to a playground, no Eating marshmallows, never riding a roller coaster-----oh my God, is this a child's life?
In order to give his son a happy childhood, the car became the time machine of the twentieth century in Butch's mouth.
"I'm the captain, you're the navigator, the future is ahead, and the past is behind. If life is too slow, and you want to fly into the future, just step on the gas, see? If you want life to slow down, just step on Just brake and you'll slow down." Stop, "This is the moment, enjoy the moment. We're time-traveling in Texas."
What an immersive parent-child game!
They went to the friendly store to buy trousers and shoes for the children. In order to talk without revealing the identity of the fugitive, Butch temporarily gave the child a pseudonym "Baz".
When I watched the movie, I thought, maybe Butch really had a son named Buzz, who lost it; maybe he lived with his mother to avoid him as a criminal; maybe there was none at all, he wished to have such a son, he Unwilling to embark on the road of crime, he longs to have the life of ordinary people; there is also a possibility that Buzz is Butch's nickname, and Butch calls Philip as "Buzz", which is his father calling his childhood self.
The police who were chased while shopping found that when Butch was playing tricks on the two policemen, Buzz took the opportunity to steal the Halloween elf clothes and masks. From this, Butch knew that the child was eager to play Halloween games, and his mother had been restrained by religious dogma. he.
No matter what religious beliefs, Buqi wants to make his son happy, and he wants to help his son to realize all the wishes on the list.
Start by going to play candy or trick-or-treating. But Halloween has expired, because it is not customary, the old lady who was asked for candy doesn't want to cooperate, but Butch's black muzzle immediately made her yield,
Not only did they give a large package of food, but even a stack of banknotes. And Butch took a gun and forced people to give candy not for robbery, but to make up for Halloween. Bitter fatherly love is deeply hidden under the muzzle of a gun.
The car broke down and happened to hitch a ride with Bob's family. Bob's two children were scolded by their mother for being naughty and unruly. Parents who didn't love their children like this, Butch robbed them unceremoniously. This is rough treatment Punishment for children. The reason why he is polite to Bob is because Bob is a man who cares for the family, "this is the greatest achievement of a man", unlike Butch's own father, and the man who cares for the family should be spared by the robbers.
Butch and Buzz were parked to sleep in a dense corn field when they were woken up by the black Mark, and the kind farmhand warmly invited the father and son to rest at their home. It looks like a warm and happy family. The gramophone sings intoxicating classic old songs. Butch dances with the virtuous and gentle Lattie in his arms. That's what a family should be like. Did father ever give Butch such happiness as a child? Have you ever loved his woman like that? However, this dreamlike happiness is soon shattered by reality, when Mark hears the broadcast of the hunt for the fugitive, Butch turns off the semiconductor and warns Mark not to do stupid things. Before Butch left, Kerry offered to do another somersault, but was beaten by his grandfather. How could he treat the child like this! Butch taught Mark: "Why are you hitting Kerry? Isn't he moving fast enough? Maybe he's too happy sometimes and doesn't hear you. You make me vomit!"
Turning to Kerry, "You want to Somersault? Of course you want to. Put your hand between your legs and I won't hurt you."
Then he took the gun and forced Mark to hug his grandson and say he loved him, and seriously, to win the child again of trust.
"Speak up, Mark. Speak up! It won't kill you."
When Mark said "Kerry, I love you", Butch said emotionally: "Oh my God, that's so good." His approach was almost horrific, but do you realize how much affection it contains! Butch taught the Bobs, and the Marks, just to teach them and male moviegoers how to be a good father. In order to leave safely, in order to prevent the Mark family from calling the police, Butch tied the three of them together. Ratti thought that Butch was going to kill Mark, and desperately took his grandson to read the Bible. Buzz also thought that Butch was going to commit a murder, in order to stop him from committing crimes. , Buzz picked up the pistol on the floor and shot at Butch.
Butch treats Philip as his son, what kind of mental journey does Philip have? Why did Buzz shoot at Butch like Dad?
In addition to not having a father, Philip does not have much presence at home. In the imaginary performance, the two young ladies can choose roles, and he can only be played as wood, not Peter Pan.
Because boys who have not been pampered and pampered by their fathers will be despised by girls. Probably because of her absurd indulgence when she was young, Ms. Perry only had two daughters, one man and three fatherless children. Perhaps in order to punish herself and atone for her sins, she took her three children to join the ascetic "Jehovah's Witnesses" sect. Deprives children of all the joy of childhood.
Butch and Poole break in unexpectedly, "kidnapping hostages" by accident, and inadvertently let Philip follow Butch on a father-son journey. First, teach the child to pick up a pistol to force the intruder, and then let the child point the gun at the chaotic Poole on the way to escape.
After applying what he has learned, Butch kills Poole and saves Philip. The child helped him watch Poole, help him steal a car, and help him bite. A father and son began to interact emotionally in the undercurrent. Butch is a robber, Buzz steals, that's the child imitating him, and the child identifies with the father in his heart. The child's first idol and the first imitating object are his own father. Philip has no father. This time, he can find an imitating object, which shows that the child has regarded him as a father in his heart. Fathers are heroes of children, and Buzz is not ashamed of stealing things, as a heroic act. So the child stealing things is a magical stroke, and there is no such thing as a plot.
When Butch found out that the child was stealing, he asked, "You stole it?" He seemed to be scolding him.
Buzz said, "Aren't you angry?" This is what the son asks when he does something wrong and is worried that his father is angry.
Butch: "Let's get to know each other. Stealing is wrong, okay? But if you really need it and you don't have the money, you can borrow it temporarily. It's called an exception."
Now that you have clothes, put them on, but the kid is ashamed to undress in front of Butch because the cock is too small, because the bad guy Poole laughed at him. I am afraid that all the little boys have had the experience of being teased that "the dick is too small" and inferiority, and only the father can help the son to build self-confidence. So Butch said: "Not young at all, just right for your age." Buzz smiled happily.
After being chased by the police, the car broke down, and the two men leaned against the car to talk, with their arms folded over their chests.
The action of the two feet crossed is simply in sync with the gods, and the imitation is really in place.
A complete father-son relationship.
At Mark's house, the black kid introduced himself and said, "I'm six years old, and my name is Kerry."
And Philip said, "I'm eight years old, and my name is Phili-Buzz." Before Butch called him Buzz, Although he did not refuse, he has never accepted it positively. Now he even accepts the name given by his father psychologically, and the father-son relationship is completely established.
Although Butch regards Philip as his son, he does not spoil him, but pays great attention to cultivating children's independence and hands-on ability.
The car was barely able to drive, so he let the children make their own sandwiches in the car.
The car slipped and almost had an accident, and Butch taught children how to brake in an emergency.
Even when tying up the Mark family, Butch let Buzz choose: "You can wait in the car, or you can watch it here, you are old enough, you can decide for yourself." To cultivate children's autonomy.
It was the father-son relationship that had the same bond, and the fact that he regarded Butch as a father, and when he saw him committing a crime, Buzz was in pain.
From his point of view, it seemed that his father was really against Mark, so he would pick up the pistol from the ground and shoot at Butch. His inner line should be this: The father I love cannot be a criminal, and he must be stopped. More importantly, the director shows the audience that this child will not embark on the road of crime. This is another magic stroke, which corresponds to stealing. With one shot, Buzz clarified his attitude and chose the direction of his life. After all, Butch is a criminal with a bad track record of murder. Without this shot, the future of this child is in concern, so this shot is necessary, but not fatal.
Buzz threw the gun down the well, took the car keys and ran away. Butch put the knife on the table and left it for Mark and the others to save himself, then stumbled out the door clutching his injured stomach.
The town's police chief, Reid, and Sally Goldberg, a criminology expert sent by the governor, have been keeping an eye on developments, not just the hunt.
Chief Reid once testified in Butch's teenage car theft case, which resulted in Butch being imprisoned for four years without seeking probation for him. He let the juvenile Butch enter the reformatory through the relationship of the judge, just to give him a chance. Rehabilitated, and if suspended, his criminal record would be longer than an arm. The reformatory did not reform Butch Hain, but made him a professional criminal. Therefore, Director Reid has a sense of guilt towards Butch, hoping to give him a chance to rehabilitate.
It's also the pursuit of criminology expert Sally Goldberg, who both believe Butch won't harm children. However, an outstanding person who pursues humanistic care cannot control the development of the situation. The ruthless federal agent represents the operating rules of this society, and the purpose of his trip is to act as a sniper. Sadly, the soul of the enforcer is no higher than that of the criminal.
Buzz ran into the closed barbed wire grass and climbed a tree,
Butch: "You're amazing, Philip, you're a hero. Maybe it'll be in the headlines tomorrow, you saved the family. Actually, I don't think I'd kill them, I've only killed two people in my life. One is The one who hurt my mom, the one who hurt you. Let's talk about it, face to face like a man, and then we can go. I-I'll let you drive, you can check off the list That's it, okay?"
The injured Butch was still talking about Alaska, and Buzz climbed down the tree and crouched on Butch as his son.
If he were to be shot, Butch would rather die at the hands of his son and be killed by an innocent child than be judged by this unjust society.
However, he has been surrounded by federal agents and local police,
Ms. Perry has arrived,
When Philip was ready to go home, Butch talked to the director: "Captain, do you have any candy? Halloween candies, popcorn balls, syrup apples, chewing gum, etc., you go find some candy, and I'll let the elf out."
All The police all took out their candy.
Butch: "Mum's going to promise to let him play candy or trick-or-treating every year; and one more thing: She's going to promise to take him to the playground, roller coaster, cotton candy, whatever he likes."
And I want my mother to guarantee it in public. This is the condition of his release, all of which are striving for happiness and happiness for the children, because the wish list opened by Buzz is far from complete, and these are what parents should do.
Buzz was worried about Butch being shot. When he was about to go outside, he suddenly ran back to Butch again. They were going out together and surrendered.
This is the best way to save him.
However, he was shot dead by a sniper.
And he just took out the postcard symbolizing "Father's Love Heaven",
Although the director punched the sniper hard and Sally punched him, it was irreversible, and social rules once again defeated human nature.
In the two-hour-long plot before, the director has been narrating smoothly and very restrained, and the audience's emotions have been suppressed all the time. With the shooting of Butch, Buzz kept crying, "Butch, Butch, Butch. Butch Butch Butch Butch...",
In fact, what he called in his heart was "Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad..." The audience's emotions could no longer be suppressed and finally burst. Butch is dead,
But he gave the child real fatherly love, enough fatherly love, he shaped the child's personality, and pointed out the direction of his life. Although the child does not have a biological father, he is so lucky and rich. He has had a father who truly loves him. I believe that there will be no more shadows or missing in the depths of the child's heart, and he will never take the wrong path again. Butch's world is dark and incomplete, but he brings the child a perfect world.
I guess Butch's heart is happy, because he died for the son he loves the most. He only killed two people in his life, both to protect the people he loves the most, one is the mother and the other is the son. He killed at the age of eight to protect his mother from harm, he killed Poole to protect his son from harm, and he deserved to die. Of course we can't praise crime, but the deepest psychological root of this criminal's path to crime is the huge "craving for love", and this point is worthy of our society's pondering. Our society is accustomed to using a simple dichotomy to distinguish between good and evil, and always uses cold laws to punish, but what human nature really needs is the candlelight of the soul, which is called humanistic care. Laws are simple and crude, institutions are ruthless, and only great love can save us from this cruel and indifferent world. Really heinous bad guys are rare. Most criminals just lost their way in life. The reason for them getting lost is often the lack of love. Only by letting them find love, and only by letting them learn to love, is the best way to reform criminals. Not just punishment and extermination, only then will our society have a way out, and only then can we be called human beings. Butch's heartbreakingly tragic fate has wide-ranging insights from which men can learn how to love their children and how to be good fathers, and how managers can learn how to fundamentally eliminate social contradictions rather than just rule. .
The sad thing is that Butch just yearns for love, and our society doesn't give him an outlet. Have you ever felt the pain and sadness of the criminal's exterior? Have you ever experienced that great soul that longs for love and longs for love? Apart from the angelic and pure Buzz, what other equally pure and innocent heart has given him the gift of love and the bearing of love? From the perspective of secular rules, Butch is a criminal, but from the perspective of a person's soul, he is so innocent, may God forgive his soul, and may the same tragedy never repeat itself. Butch can't go to Alaska anymore, but maybe he's in "Alaska", and while he's compensating Buzz, he's also compensating himself, and he's created a "father's paradise".
Every man has a Buzz, whether he was born or adopted, blood or spiritual, every man should take his Buzz to "Alaska". Hopefully one day I can take Buzz to Alaska, or when I'm old, Buzz will take me there.
