Three and a half stars, and more and a half stars give an unexpected ending.
In my opinion, this is just an old man's lust for an ignorant girl. It is said that the prototype comes from Bertolucci's encounter with a strange girl... Without the following, this is the reality.
But in the movie, Bertolucci can be arrogant, which is not reality. Since it is lust, of course, the domestication or materialization of the girl is indispensable. This wonderful body, this object that can be rubbed and pinched, everything is the highest mission to satisfy his vision. Therefore, there is a room full of desire and warmth, where the furnishings are messy, the light is ambiguous, the time is stagnant, and the protagonist of the story is lingering and quarreling here. Bertolucci is very strong in the process of realizing his ideas. In subsequent interviews, the male and female lead actors have expressed that they were "raped" by the director after finishing the film. By the way, the "Butter Incident" stigmatized by the media, the sexual assault did not happen, but the details of Butter did not communicate with the actress in advance, which caused a serious psychological shadow to the actress. Clearly Bertolucci objectified the actress, he disrespected her, and the truth ends here, and it's the unscrupulous media entertaining to death.
After watching the movie, I will think, how did Bertolucci find Marlon Brando as the male lead. Although the 48-year-old Ma Long has a worrying hairline, his eyebrows are more gentle. He saluted gracefully at the girl's table, and sat down after asking. is very charming. Although the last moment he took off his pants and slapped his ass balls on the dance floor and splashed with people... Marlon Brando said that this movie stole a lot of his real emotions, I think those deep, neurotic and charming parts are a portrayal of him, I would like to believe so. One of my favorite clips is the joke where the male and female protagonists use onomatopoeia to name themselves, the clip where they make trouble on the dance floor, and the female protagonist and the movie boyfriend smack and hug each other, very warm and life-like.
If the ending of the movie is that the hero and heroine join hands to go away for a happy life, then this movie is just an unsophisticated cool movie. The wonderful thing is that the heroine did not choose love, she chose to stop there, she ran, he chased, he said He confessed his past and promised her the future, the eagerness in his eyes scared her, and she pulled the trigger (she would never have imagined that she would pull her father's old gun when she was picking up her father's old gun, but these happened one by one ), she started muttering, I don't know him, I don't know his name... He was her love half an hour ago, and she was masturbating him under the table in the dim ballroom, crying we don't If we meet again. She repeated over and over again, I don't know him, I don't know his name...until the panic was replaced by calm, eyes cold like a killer. On the balcony, Brando was curled up like a baby, the temperature and blood draining at a delicate speed, waiting to die.
God punished him and put him into the hands of a woman.
I really like this ending.
