——"Hunger" film review He gradually lost the function of liver, kidney and pancreas. Osteoporosis due to calcium and vitamin deficiencies. Cardiac dysfunction. Causes loss of function and eventually cardiac arrest. The left ventricle contracts to 70% of its normal size. Muscle atrophy caused by hypoglycemia and low energy. The stomach and intestines begin to ulcerate due to lack of dilution and are accompanied by bleeding from the mucous membranes of the digestive system. Degenerative changes in the intestinal mucosa. All bodily functions begin to fail. Bobby sat on the bed, kneeling, his whole body shaking uncontrollably. Only a thin layer of the muscles on the back remained, and the spine and ribs poked through the flesh, as if the color of the bones could be seen clearly. At the weakest point of connection between each bone and skin. All festered from bedsores, pink muscles stirring half-healed scabs. Like a few blooming ham flowers. The doctor dipped his index finger in the ointment and caressed the affected area, trying to reduce the force of the application as much as possible. Bobby's pain increased exponentially. But it didn't help that Bobby spasmed even more in pain. The stomach and intestines begin to corrode and digest themselves as only stomach acid and digestive juices are left. The stomach, which is melted by gastric juices, is mixed with the intestines, which are digested by digestive juices. Back up irreversibly in Bobby's esophagus. Digestive mucous membranes are hard to bear. Bleeding begins. The thick juices of the festering intestines and stomach add blood to the digestive mucosa. Finally Bobby spit on the floor beside the bed. Bobby's bed sores from starvation and his inability to turn over have worsened, and the fur on the back of the bed doesn't help. The doctor started cleaning Bobby in the bathtub regularly. Bobby's hearing failure. When I saw my comrade-in-arms who came to visit me, I could only see what he looked like, but I could never hear what he was saying. When Bobby is lying on his back, a brace needs to be placed over his body to prevent the bed sores from exacerbating further contact between the sheets and his body. Outside the window of Bobby's ward, there was the sound of crows, and crows wandered outside Bobby's window in groups. Because they like to eat rotten things. Crows are the only birds that have the ability to sense the dying of their prey. Their presence is obviously bad news. Bobby's parents moved in to stay in bed. Bobby rolled his eyes to see his mother sitting beside him taking a nap. His ears are deaf. Now, vision is also starting to decline. The mother was unable to focus in front of her eyes, and the depth of field failed. Bobby knew that he was about to see the real world. Standing in front of Bobby's bed, the boy Bobby looked at his end and reached out his hand to stroke Bobby's rib, which was suddenly protruding from hunger. Teenage Bobby appears more and more frequently. finally brings Bobby in the real world. Bobby is still the quiet teenager leaning on the minibus bound for the urban and rural fringes. He listened to the discussions of his companions in the car and declined to comment. He practises long distance running on the banks of the river he loves. The bushes and weeds were left behind by the young Bobby, just as Bobby in the real world was always the first to protest against political prisoners. Teen Bobby stopped. He saw the forest ahead. The real Bobby already has childhood memories. He knew what was waiting in front of him. It was a dying foal. As a teenager, he finally chose to help a distressed colt euthanize, thus accepting the punishment of a racially discriminatory priest. As now, the real Bobby wants to use himself as the miserable colt. He had to make up his mind painfully, to kill himself who had become a real foal in pain. Then face the consequences and face the next step of the British government, which represents priests in the real world. And finally lead the group of young playmates to get the extension and respect they deserve. British director Steve McQueen (hereinafter referred to as mc, The same below), the Virgo "Hunger" once came out, it shocked the audience and sent it directly to the most promising British literary film director's altar. In the face of honor, mc was indifferent, and made persistent efforts to shoot "Shame"--cut people's addiction to being ashamed of seeing people and exposed them to the sun. Thinking about it, it may not be unreasonable for mc to choose "Hunger" as his representative work. As director mc of people of colour, despite having British nationality. But it is bound to endure the discrimination that blacks all over the world face. In his opinion, the movie, as the most powerful appeal window, chooses the theme of "Hunger" as his debut novel, which is a natural fit. The political treatment of the Northern IRA after its annexation by the British Empire was as sparse as the number of people of colour in the seats of the great powers today. in the specific environment of a prison. Violent restraints are all too normal in a prison that is itself an instrument of violence and restraint. Therefore, any violence will be allowed and acquiesced. And never see the light of day, keep secret forever. But even with such freedom of narrative, MC still does not put the space and lens on the process of violence. Rather, it's more of an immersive experience for the audience. That is, the audience is from God's perspective. Watching the body ravaged by violence, close-up of the festering wounds and bruises left by the crit. It has to be said that this is a more effective visual impact than watching violence. In the face of violence, the audience will be more of a bystander. Thus play. The feelings of seeing the damage caused by wounds and violence are another matter. The audience will reflect on the meaning of violence. And who exactly is the enforcer. Is it the jailer? Or is it more appropriate to say that bystanders, perspectives and attitudes that have nothing to do with oneself are the ultimate violence? MC's move can be described as killing multiple birds with one stone. Not only expounds the film, but also puts a greater weight on the audience's torture of their own conscience. As far as the publicity of the movie is concerned. Although mc is a rookie, he is much more experienced than the master. Back to the theme of "Hunger" itself: what is the meaning of the existence of the martyrs? In the current universal value, when people do something, what is the meaning? Is it worth it? If you dig to the root, it is: "Is this beneficial to myself? What can I gain through this matter or this position?" Of course, I do not deny this philosophy of life, after all, in this world where everyone is selfish In the era, self-protection and making oneself profit are themes that have always been respected. But that's what the martyrs are all about. The so-called martyr means that when he does something or insists on a certain position, the value perspective he considers is not himself, or never himself, in other words. A martyr is by no means an egoist. Bobby in The Hunger is a good example of this. in the real world. From a young age, Bobby has experienced the discrimination between races due to location. Maybe from that time, he no longer lives for himself, but exists to eliminate this discrimination and inequality. This also explains. Why did Bobby choose to euthanize deer in the real world, and use hunger strike to kill himself in the real world to arouse the fighting spirit of the discriminated people to continue to fight? And at the same time, the counterpart to Bobby the Martyr. It is the cowardice and powerlessness of egoists. The pastor who talked to Bobby before his hunger strike is the best proof. His final silence and compromise. It proves the insurmountable distance between the values of the world and the values of the self. From a central point of view, Hunger is nothing but a riot for political status as a carrier to describe the infinite power of will, perseverance, and endurance. Throughout The Hunger's most shocking climax, Bobby's body changes and the injuries he suffers during his hunger strike. The damage is more shocking. It also reflects the firmness of Bobby's will from the side and the infinite endurance that Bobby bursts out with the cross-country long-distance running in the real world. At this moment when materialism has been deified and held high by the elites, an idealist "Hunger" has to be said to be a dangerous flag to wake up many people step by step. Perhaps, the martyrs in this world have always been there. Only covered by waves of egoism. But I firmly believe that one day, history will drop those flattering tones, with simple narratives and moving sincerity. With the dignity of the martyrs.
