I see all the lords looking at my breasts, and I expect them to see me like this. There is a saying that since the opening of this film, you can't deny that director Zhang Yimou's love for the big bear is so sincere. The heart of a child that fills the screen brings tears to my eyes. But as time went on, I gradually realized that the plot was not right. Why come out incest ah. This is not right, this is not right. But gradually watching, gradually watching, you will find that this movie is still good. At my current level, there are three reasons for giving full marks. You can refer to it as appropriate.
1. The harm of patriarchal culture to a group in previous time periods
I say this because of the amount of detail that goes into the film. To describe the poison of the patriarchal culture to that woman. The most impressive part is a prelude before the Double Ninth Dinner. The foreshadowing of this part lies in the concrete manifestation of the contradiction between the two. Women's self-defense and the collision of patriarchal culture. One thing to say, one simple ending with a compromise halfway through. In fact, this is also to boost the development of the subsequent plot. And the clever thing is the timing. The position that belongs to one-half is also more suitable for personal acceptance. That fragment profoundly reflects the pressure of patriarchy on the individual's yearning for a better life. The most impressive thing is that sentence. If you are sick, you need to take medicine. One of the meanings of this line is that if I think you should take medicine, you should take medicine. As for whether the queen is really sick or not, it doesn't really matter. What needs to be shaped is the queen's yearning for freedom, which is deprived. The queen is a harmed part of the patriarchal culture, and being a queen is also harmed, not to mention an ordinary commoner. Another thing is that the three sons are all hardcore reunions on the Double Ninth Festival.
2. While the patriarchal culture hurts others, it also suffers from itself.
It is undeniable that Chow Yun-fat played the role in the play. Is the final winner, and his win is a loss from many perspectives. There is no successor, an old man with three sons on the Double Ninth Festival, in one day. All reopening, this is undoubtedly fatal for a person, this is spiritual loneliness. The rules and ethics that he tried so hard to uphold were trampled on, which is equivalent to what he cares about and what he loses. This is a spiritual blow. The benefits a person obtains are always what they pay for. No matter what the outcome is, the patriarchal culture has its meaning and is in line with the needs of the productivity of that era. We can criticize our father for being pedantic and stubborn. But you can't deny their contribution. Their dedication supports the family.
3. The contradiction between personal emotions and vital interests
This manifestation is actually a part of the ending, Prince Jie's choice has already borne the consequences for his actions. He himself also made it clear in the film that he knew he would fail, but he just wanted to let his old mother out of the sea of misery. In the final analysis, it is the conflict between human feelings and self-interest. This situation is reflected in real life as both love and bread. Zhang Yimou's ending arrangement actually gives people a yearning and a pursuit in the final analysis. The kind of pursuit that you know you can't do. The manifestation of contradiction is inevitable. How to solve the contradiction is a problem faced by everyone. We cannot impose it on everyone according to our own preferences. Some people face the bread and give up love. Some people give up bread in the face of love. This is all people choose based on their own needs, we are not qualified to comment on anything, just be a spectator.
As for chrysanthemum or something, it is actually a metaphor for Confucianism. It is known as the gentleman among flowers, and the gentleman is also the code of conduct advocated by Confucianism. I don’t understand, I don’t feel it, I don’t comment, hahahaha.
It's the first time I've written so long, and it's not well written. If you don't like it, you can go. Don't spray me, I'll explode.
