Catherine said that complete love lasts only a moment, but for her this moment is repeated. Truffaut shaped a modern love, a transitional, ephemeral, contingent, half as art, the other half eternal and unchanging. Although he could not fully express his position, Truffaut pointed out that this kind of rebellion is completely self-centered, ephemeral and fragile. Limitations can only lead to self-destruction. The interesting thing is that before Katherine's two throws, Zu and Zhan both showed a tendency of their own (not even a position, let alone a criticism), the first time from the perspective of a traditional male, citing Trang Pu was talking about a conversation between men in a locker room, a second time thinking that burning books is unimaginable. From this point of view, Catherine regards herself as a complete rebel, rejects the society’s definition of women, and rejects all rationality that denies the rationality of resistance. It is not that traditional reason and ethical reason have caused much trouble to Catherine (because of the resistance to the resistance) In other words, indifferent and disregard are the psychological elements that constitute resistance), and the act of resistance itself is all the elements that constitute self-centered resistance. There is also something worth thinking about in the attitude of Zu and Zhan. After the first time they fell into the water, they showed an attitude of envy and leaning towards it. This shows the ambiguous attitude of intellectuals to this kind of hurricane and sudden thought that can be extended. , but the second Catherine's death was a relief, which itself pointed out that although this kind of behavior, this kind of thinking is a philosophically valuable fruit of culture and society, it is not sweet in itself and is full of bitterness .
If The English Patient is a critique of classical ethical values, then Zu and Zhan is a challenge to classical ethical values. "The English Patient" compares collectivist values with individualist values through the method of comparison. The victory of love indicates that once the values are compared, there will be no constant things in the values, and all values will vary from person to person, and there is no so-called so-called value. Criticism of value, the desire for self-worth will make all behavior reasonable. In Zu and Zhan, the classical ethical values completely succumb to the rebellious spirit of modernity. Here, the marriage relationship has completely become the proof of love. There is only passion in marriage, and only the desire for unrestricted and expanding desire. , like a light without shadows, there is only love in the philosophical sense, and there is no trace of the responsibility and loyalty that life shows.
Here, everything is triumphant, here, irrationality overcomes reason, individual values overcome collective morality, the act of resistance overcomes the meaning of resistance, passion overcomes painful contemplation, but there is only one negative, just like Zu slowly towards Going downhill, he's gone, he's gone from the brightest, the dazzling apex, below is life, and of course, he has a daughter he loves so much. There is such a denial here that death cannot conquer life.
