Last summer, when the sun was very strong and the sea breeze was blowing, I watched Pain and Glory alone in a hotel, and when I saw Salvador shed tears when he drew his own paintings to the people who were his first desires in his childhood, he couldn't help but shed tears. A sigh. The whole film is like Diderot's novel "Jacob the Fatalist and His Master", which uses a kind of metamorphosis to lead the emotions. Diderot's novel begins by saying: "How did they meet? What does it have to do with you? ? Accidental!", jumping out in this tone to have a certain degree of dialogue with the reader, which makes the fictional-reality atmosphere that should have been created by words, so sloppy; it can make the reader realize the "novel" at once. The media, not the reality of the "story". This distinctive feature of the metamorphosis reminds the viewer to be aware of the existence of the material. This approach is to allow the fictional world to have a dialogue with the real world. Therefore, in meta-films such as "Pain and Glory", El Salvador is often interpreted as a projection of Almodovar, and we naturally associate the protagonist with the director, which is somewhat dangerous, because once the audience realizes the media The material, even the incarnation of the creator, is accompanied by a weakening of the effect of the simulacrum, that is, the weakening of reality. As long as the play is logical and the characters are emotional, it can still have a touching effect - Salvador and Alberto's reconciliation, or the reunion of Salvador's short-lived lovers who see that he has almost disappeared from the other's heart, The audience is still happy and sad for him. Therefore, I will sigh. I sorted out Baidu’s online disk today, and I saw this film again, and I watched it again, only to find that the weakening of the illusion of reality actually helps to make the form of expression more free. The use of scientific and educational film-style dynamic images to explain, escape from reality in the most extreme way in the film, enlarge the boundaries of our discussion of film, and broaden the way to find people's hearts, and understand the reasons for failure, Almodovar and Fei. Rini's eight-and-a-half films are still almost meaningless. Without the anger of last year, people's mentality will really change.
