people living in grids

This is one of my favorite movies, a lot of people like to watch it from a voyeuristic and private point of view, or somewhat hostile, but the first time I saw the protagonist, I fell in love with this angelic look And the handsome boy with the devil's heart, observing the people in the grid of life as a bystander.
At the beginning of the film, the character who plays the "prey" in the film, the literature teacher, is also introduced here. There is also an irony here: the literature teacher treats the issue of uniform uniforms in the school with a very contemptuous attitude. Yes, it makes the audience feel that this is a very thoughtful and sentimental teacher, and it can't help but think of the teacher who pilots like a captain in "Dead Poets Society". But the ending of the story proves that the teacher is also a person living in a grid, but his "grid" was forcibly removed by the hero.
The next picture is also very interesting. After the picture of the principal issuing the order, a group of students wearing the same school uniform came to the school in a fast-forward manner, and then the ID portraits of the students in the same size and the same clothes were covered on the full screen. , and the fast transformation is finally fixed in the name of this movie - Entering the Room.
At the beginning of the film, in the dialogue between the teacher and his wife, the audience can learn that this somewhat cynical teacher has a maverick artistic wife. Contempt and sarcasm. According to the usual plot, such an unusual couple is destined to encounter unusual things, so the two noticed the master's literary assignment on the bus and started this interesting cat-and-mouse game.
The main part of the film is the intersection between the real life of the teacher and his wife and the protagonist's invasion of an ordinary family, where the boy lurks in that home, gaining insight into everyone in the family, what they long for, what they endure, and what they endure. How to be restrained by each other, in this dynamic balance, this ordinary family has formed a strong cohesion. But when the protagonist enters in an out-of-rule manner, this balance is broken. He understands that the child needs the interaction of peers, the hostess needs praise and affirmation, and the hero needs the satisfaction of being a protector. He became the boy's adoring boyfriend, the mistress's lover, and the son of the basketball court's host. He preyed on it all by exploiting the weakness of human nature, enjoying being a member of the family. Outside of this family, the protagonist sneaks into another family in another way, that is, the teacher's family. He takes advantage of people's curiosity and deepens his weight in their hearts with every suspense. At the dinner table, at the bedside, in any occasions where we might meet, others have not arrived, but they have lived with them for a long time, so that when the protagonist appears in front of the teacher, the teacher will not be surprised and defensive.
Finally, when the time was right, the male protagonist used the teacher's dereliction of duty and the secret of his wife's infertility to successfully tear down the two walls of the teacher's "professional" and "wife", forcing the person to become an outsider, forcing him to accompany him Admire those who live in the lattice together.
The last two people in the movie sit on the bench and look at the residential building opposite. There are different people and stories in each window. Each window is like a lattice, which tightly frames the people inside. Either joy or anger or sadness, no amount of stories can escape the weakness of human nature and the entanglement of other people living in the grid. The protagonist is no longer alone because he has captured a prey who can appreciate and love him.
In this movie, the protagonist obviously did not grow up in the company of his parents. The lack of love and the suffering of reality shaped his precocious and sensitive character. All kinds of breaths produced by people's emotional changes in the air. He has invaded those grids again and again since he was a child, blended into them, got tired of those grids, and then retreated. This is not the first and not the last time, but he is too lonely to get that short-term self-deception from the grids. A sense of belonging, he needs someone to appreciate him, praise him, understand him, this person must be as lonely as he is, so he sets his sights on the literature teacher who is a little cynical and a little maverick. In fact, that teacher is also a person living in a grid, enduring the constraints of the world, obeying the order of life, and doing everything that should be done according to the values ​​of the people around him. But the attitude of self-appreciation and contempt for the people around you can give others the illusion that I am a unique existence, I am not a vulgar person like you, I am a person with avant-garde ideas and noble pursuits. But when his grid was ruthlessly torn down, he was regretful and decadent, and he had no reason to support his beliefs and continue to exist. At this time the male protagonist appears, gives him conviction and reason, and he becomes his appendage and follower.
I like this male protagonist, not only because he is smart and talented, with a pair of charming blue eyes as deep as the ocean, but also because of his pity, his heart that can never find a sense of belonging, exists in Grid In addition, there will be a sense of control and power that no one else can understand, as if he is mocking the god of stupid human beings and controls the direction of fate. But the male protagonist is also a human being. He is a child who lacks the love of his father and mother since he was a child. When he loses the flexible limbs and beautiful appearance that his youth gave him, and the energy that can be watched day and night, he will find that his huge body Can't fit into any grid, he can only stand alone forever outside all this, standing between heaven and earth, enduring the four seasons of reincarnation, waiting for the withering and decay of body and mind every second. Only death can redeem.

    The ultimate in film storytelling. Starting from Oedipus, around the core of literary creation, a series of complex and not messy metaphor systems such as dystopia are extended. Tribute to "Rear Window" has already surpassed. Selfishness will think that this is a science fiction film-because literature itself is constructing reality and predicting the future just like the language of "Arrival". The ending and bold character relationships are the same as in "New Girlfriend". The above short comment is a literary student's self-intentional obscenity.

    I don't have a mother, you lose passion, he lacks recognition, she thinks she's all, but she doesn't have anything. I thought I could find something from each other, but it turns out we're alone and stable after all Love is enough to satisfy the condescending voyeurism. It is happiness in itself. Maybe you don't need to return to the normality of life, but you want to live forever on the page.
