Men are very simple, except for the man with dentures, there is only Mr. He (Leung Chiu Wai); as for women, there are many, Miss Bai (Zhang Ziyi), Miss Wang (Faye Wong), Miss Su (Black Spider— Gong Li), Lulu (Carina Lau). But to put it bluntly, there is only one person - Su Lizhen, the married woman Maggie Cheung in "In the Mood for Love".
Some people think that this movie is very simple, telling the story of a man and a bunch of women, or about a man who harmed a bunch of women because he couldn't find a married woman. Well, in fact, this movie can be very simple, it tells the story of a man.
In fact, why is this not the case? This man is careful when it comes to his true feelings, he is casual when it comes to engaging with women, when he talks about memories, he hurts parting, when he talks about the future, he talks about the past. In his own world, there is only Su Lizhen, who has already guarded the way of women in "In the Mood for Love" and gave birth to a child. He couldn't escape this memory, so he stretched and enlarged this relationship without limit. After Mr. He kissed the black spider in the movie, he said, "Take care of yourself. If one day you can let go of your past, remember to come back to me.". Then, the narrator added: "I later found out that this is almost what I said to myself."
Some people say that a man will only remember his first love. Su Lizhen (Maggie Cheung) is not his first, but she is indeed the one with the most bitter and fruitless love - even if she knows that her husband is having an affair, she is still unwilling to give herself to Mr. He. Then "In the Mood for Love" came to an end - the husband returned to his side, he had a child, and the past was no longer mentioned.
Mr. He doesn't understand, why have the two of them come to this point, or are they separated? This question is the ultimate question for him. He wrote this doubt into a story he called "2046" and later renamed it "2047": "I once fell in love with a person, I don't know if she likes me, I think this robot is very similar to her, I started to try Find the answer in her. In the end, it turns out that the problem is not whether she likes you or not, but that she already belongs to her."
He can't let go of this relationship because he has everything in his heart but can't get what he has earned. This doubt is naturally one after another harming women. In Mr. He's own words, it is "playing on the scene". The word is explained in two places in the film, two long shots, one in a crowded aisle of a nightclub (the lights are ambiguous red, and the men and women in fancy dress pretending to be excited and happy push me in the narrow aisle , you beat me): "I quickly got used to this kind of life, and I acted on the scene at any time, and many of them were dewy relationships. But it doesn't matter, where did they come from so many lifetimes." The second one was on Christmas Eve in 1966. Walking with Bai Ling (Zhang Ziyi) on the road (medium shot, half body, not only with face, but also with legs.) He said: "I'm just playing on the scene, it won't interfere with their lives." She said: "I just don't understand Why do you guys like to play on the scene so much, a good one is enough, why waste time?" He replied, "You have to find it, too, I have nothing, all I have is time. I have to find something to pass the time. "
Because of "looking for a good one", Mr. He met many women in "2046".
The word "meet" is very good. From another perspective, all the women in "2046" seem to be Mr. He's mirror. Speaking professionally, all women are Mr. He's self-projection. CS Lewis defined it as follows when discussing love in "Four Loves": I have a positive feeling to get along with an object, and I am willing to continue to get along with it. The trend is self-reinforcing. Jung also discusses in The Undiscovered Self: "...for man himself, man remains a mystery....only when man establishes contact with the quasi-human mammals that inhabit other planets Then he can make this comparison, and thus he can know himself.”
There are such passages in the Bible:
Jehovah God said: “It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper for him. All kinds of beasts and every bird of the sky were brought to the man to see what his name was. What the man called every living creature, that was its name. The man named all the livestock and all the birds of the air and the wild beasts. name, but the man found no mate to help him. The LORD God put him to sleep, and he slept; so he took one of his rib, and closed the flesh. And the rib which the LORD God took from the man made a woman into a woman. , lead her to the man.
The man said, "This is my bone of my bones, and my
flesh of my flesh. You may call
her a woman,
because she was taken from a man."
Just focus on the literal information here. In the concept of the ancients, women came from men, and they were "the flesh of the flesh and the bone of the bones". The focus here should not be on this unequal "subordination" relationship, but rather on the intimate relationship between men and women, and they are a relationship that includes "you have me, I have you".
In a human individual, in order to know himself, he needs to contact and communicate with other individuals. Each person's self-projection does not stop when he is with another person. Sometimes you find that you can't understand one person at all, but you have a "soul resonance" with another person. This is the best example of a successful self-projection.
Bai Ling is most like the one with smooth hair. Wong Kar Wai's shot is indeed designed in this way. In the shot of Bai Ling and Mr. Ho being angry, both of them are reflected by the mirror in the corridor as two "selfs". It hints at the similarity between the two of them.
The most impressive thing about "In the Mood for Love" is the pros and cons of the death tango. They can't have this kind of euphemistic "death tango", they just squeak the bed. (Is this a kind of compensation?)
Bai Ling was very domineering at the beginning, and slapped Mr. He directly. She loved him, depended on him, was jealous for him, but he was tired of her. Bai Ling had the idea that he had loved her from beginning to end, but was finally broken ruthlessly.
After Adam and Eve committed the original sin, God punished mankind. The Bible has the following chapters to explain this incomprehensible emotional contradiction:
(Jehovah) said to the woman:
I will greatly increase the pain of your pregnancy, and
you will give birth to many children. suffer.
You will desire your husband, and
your husband will rule over you. (Genesis 3:16)
Although Mr. He finally admitted that it was a pity to think about it, after all, this relationship was once a part of him, but he stayed away from this kind of love and bondage. It's as if someone with traumatic childhood experiences refuses to relive yesterday. He arranged her in the novel, in the "pigeon cage" he carefully arranged.
Although the story of "2047" takes place in the future, everyone goes there to find their own past. It is the "pigeon cage" that Mr. He binds himself, because he said "people who go will not come back." "Some people can leave easily, but he is covered in bruises, and he can't leave after I don't know how long."
In 1224 -1225 In this cold area, he has no passengers to hug, so he starts hugging the robot.
These beautiful and sluggish robots have the appearance of perfect women, but are always robots at heart. Robots are emotionless, and everything you see or feel is a projection of yourself. In this way, there is no "renewed" feeling, and in the end, it can only come back around the dead circle.
Miss Wang is the recipient of this story, but unlike him, her lover eventually becomes a dependent. She could understand being alone on the train, but she couldn't understand why it had to end like this. I wonder if she will have the idea of "strong sense of substitution" when she reads this story?
Mr. He's self betting on Miss Wang is probably the purest part of everyone. He had no desire for him, and she helped him write novels. How is Miss Wang's experience different from that of Mr. He? What restrains Miss Wang and Kimura is a kind of father's authority, and what restrains the relationship between Mr. He and Su Lizhen is not the moral shackles in the patriarchal society? He really looked at her from the eyes of someone who had come over. When he received the invitation, he smiled slightly. He probably muttered, "It would be nice if someone (pushed) Kuan (bo) Rong (helped) at that time."
"May you Break free from the bondage of love, the shackles of love, and stop suffering for love." "Comprehension", produced by Li Zongsheng in 1994, sung by Xin Xiaoqi. It really shows one thing: what you can't get is really the best. Think about it, it's just a sour grape mentality. Isn't Zhang Ailing's "Red Rose and White Rose" clear? Marrying a red rose, over time, the red one has turned into a smear of mosquito blood on the wall, while the white one is still "bright moonlight in front of the bed"; What's red is a cinnabar mole on my heart.
So you should cherish the people in front of you, and let go of what you can't get. Hahaha.
