Only artificial intelligence can realize Square, of course artificial intelligence is already in Square

I always think that screenwriters who can write satirical comedies are all about talent. Of course, this is also a way of making fun. When you can't hold such a huge theme with a drama, satirical comedy is undoubtedly the best choice.

The content discussed in this film is detailed and dense, basically including every scene and every dialogue. Although there are clichés about beggars and many other places, it does not prevent the intense flashes of sparks that make people stunned.

The film begins with "a leather bag" satirizing the art; then there is "crisis of confidence", a pair of leaders and subordinates are excitedly toasting to the preparation of a plan, but when the plan needs to be implemented, it produces There is a crisis of trust. Once trust collapses, it will create a "stereotype". To build it up again, it will cost more than the previous geometric series of details.

Here's a shot that I think is an expression of the director's "spiral down." It echoes with the male protagonist who told his daughters in Square that there was no danger for children going out alone in the early years, but now they have to worry about the threat of adults.

down the stairs

Of course, this is still an irony, the meaning of this work of art in Square is that "the square is a place of trust and love, and within it, we share power and responsibility. "

There are still many, many issues discussed in this film, which can basically be said to be intensive bombardment. One thing that strikes me here is the expression of Christian and Ann's sexual relationship.

The confrontation between the sexes is vividly expressed by a long condom, but I can only understand the wonderful meaning that I can't even express in words.

Ann found Christian after that and said she had given him the sincerity. In this dialogue contest between love and sex, Ann, who was starting to stand on the moral high ground of "love", had the upper hand. , Christian said Ann's name. It's an obvious comedic twist, and here it subtly shifts the dominance of the confrontational relationship to Christian's side. Just like the tug of war between the sexes in daily life, there is no right or wrong, or both are right and wrong.

The best thing here is the background of the cluttered pile of stools behind it that occasionally bangs. It's a perfect combination of art and film.

Ann says Christian's irony when he takes women to bed by his own right

The climax of the film was quite shocking. In the silence, these gentlemen watched the perpetrators frequently violent but did not dare to do anything.

And when the first resister appeared, everyone gathered and responded with a heavy punch. At this time, the "civilized law enforcement" has already disappeared from these civilized people, and the rest are no different from the jungle beasts.

At the end of the film, when Christian resigned because of the actual video, the reporter threw the question, "Is this the so-called upper limit of freedom of speech?". Putting Christian in a dilemma, he broke into a cold sweat. There is a similar effect in the same way. At an interview with an artist, an audience member kept making swear words, and his wife explained that he had slurs. When almost everyone was overwhelmed, someone stood up for him. The defense hopes to be tolerated by everyone, because he is also being mentally tortured.

If you don't resign, you say you show the lower limit of publishing violent information; if you resign, you say you have reached the limit of speech so easily. Where is the so-called freedom of speech. If you don't attack the slanderers, how to protect the existence environment of others, if you attack the slurpers, you will say that you don't respect vulnerable groups.

So in the end, it is possible to find the middle degree. I think it is still an unsolved problem in modern civilization today.

The ending, of course, was as everyone thought, Christian did not resign, and Square's exhibition got more attention because of it. It was just on the front page of the newspaper's publicity, and it was inevitable that another group of people would boycott and protest.

When Christian drove his children to the slums to find the children who were hurt because of him, I thought the film was going to end in Square, where everyone was happy on the PC. Fortunately, the child moved away, and Christian could never get his heart. The redemption above.

Everything discussed in the film is a real problem, and it is also a difficult problem to solve. These problems are contained in human nature and may be difficult to overcome by relying on modern civilization and social structure.

Maybe the so-called Square can only be achieved by artificial intelligence, after all, artificial intelligence itself exists in Square!

    Barely pass. In fact, the clues are quite chaotic: the male protagonist tried to help others on the street, but he was tricked into taking away his mobile phone wallet. He threatened the entire building's residents by locating the mobile phone (he himself admitted that he was biased against the neighborhood), and thus fell into a man Tong's discussion and start self-protection mode. On the other hand, the male protagonist, as an art curator, launched a conceptual field "Cube", which is a space that calls on everyone to help each other. It looks like a report of these Viking descendants showing the effects of self-castration in the context of modern culture. However, all this was quickly exposed, and the propagandist used a self-explosive advertisement similar to the Islamic State to promote it, triggering a public backlash. The film also includes characters such as one-night stand female reporters, imitating ape-man performances and Tourette's patients, constantly breaking through the personal space that offends the public or the male protagonist. The theme of this film is not so much a satire, I think it is the natural contradiction within the so-called modernity of human beings (private ownership, public communication norms, eliminating inequality). The director's technique is clever, and many of the shots are very delicate. I was also very nervous about the scene of Sai Xin in the dark corridor, but it was not eloquent but revealed a bit of confusion.

    Four and a half stars, this is a comedy belonging to intellectuals, intellectuals know better, and it is also about the embarrassment and self-deprecation of intellectuals. Embarrassment is also the main factor that constitutes the film’s laughter. It talks about the embarrassment of many intellectuals and decent people and the laughter they elicited. And in the last part, let this kind of playfulness continue from the embarrassment of the people in the film to the audience, and you will find that it is not only them who are being ridiculed. Although they will be a little angry, they are still powerful.
