Ghostly life and death

Most of the comments on the Internet about the film "The Aftermath" are based on arguments: it is indeed buried alive - murder - perverted serial murder... ok, it is well-founded and beyond doubt. The real perception comes from the details, and the settings of many details echo the front and back, which shows the director's intentions. Maybe it's the director's mystique and blurring of boundaries, which makes the audience feel doubtful even after they are convinced... I often feel that watching a movie is like visiting a store, even if it is a store with a clear theme, customers get what they want in the store, and they are not the same. . Although I didn't think the film was well done, it was just like watching "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai" when I was a child, and I was addicted to the emotional scene caused by the story itself, instead of pursuing the logical and reasonable truth, it was only about bits and pieces and touching the heart. Affection. . Below, I just want to list what I found in this film: A. At the beginning of the chapter, after entering the mortuary master's warm words, the deceased that catches your eyes - a stunned old man. You have doubts in your heart, why are you dying?

After the end of the film, there is still a pair of eyes, from closed to open. His face was expressionless, even though he was having sex, he was calm and lifeless.

In the picture, some people have their eyes closed and some people have their eyes open.

At the end of the film, the male protagonist closed his eyes from opening his eyes to being killed.

Xiaoshenyang Xiaopin once deduced: As soon as you close your eyes and open your eyes, a day will pass, Hao~ Once you close your eyes, your life will pass like this Hao~ Think about it, when you open and close your eyes, it can show that the time has "passed", and you can become a The line between life and death? B. Dark and dark colors are the background tone of the film, and a few touches of color in the film are deliberately jumping, like weeping. The bloody/pale title is a beautiful pale female body with bloody subtitles.

Female lead dyed hair - blood red

Blood red, a symbol of vitality, when it gradually drains like blood, it indicates the inevitable death of her life. The mortuary cut off the blood-red underwear of the heroine, rinsed the blood-red dyed hair for the heroine, and revealed a pale body. Can it be regarded as the heroine's life and death? Watershed?

Of course, there are many blood red elements, such as lipstick, umbrellas and so on. Especially the male protagonist's car, which carries the male protagonist around, is so close to the female protagonist, but has never been able to reach it. C. Afraid that the little boy thought a chick was going to die, the heroine said, "It's just scared."

What are you afraid of? Afraid of being hurt! The heroine said she wanted love, but was too scared. Recalling that when I was a child, I found that loving someone means getting hurt, so I decided not to love anyone, so that I would not be hurt again...

I thought I was afraid of death,

In fact, it is afraid of life. The mortuary wanted to let the heroine free, but the heroine fell into the illusion of the world and retreated. The mortuary master angrily rebuked the heroine: I thought you were very ordinary, you always said that you were afraid of death, but in fact you are more afraid of life.

D. The mortuary's view of life When a child broke off the petals and smelled like him, the mortuary said: "They have no life, they belong to the trash can"

E. Title: "AFTER LIFE"

Usually the Chinese title of the film is "Aftermath", also known as "Spiritual Life and Death Line" / "Afterlife" / "Journey of Life". I think "Spiritual Life and Death" is more appropriate in comparison. Is AFTER LIFE also translated as "behind life"? Of course, AFTER also means "seeking".
