This is the second time I've watched Park Chan-wook's movie, and the first time I watched "Kind Gold", it was very shocking. What shocked me was the beautiful blood and violence interpreted by the director for the first time.
As soon as I saw the name of the movie, I thought it was about a love story between a female robot and a normal person, and reflexively, I thought of the humanoid computer Angel Heart, a comic I used to like very much, hehe. But the heroine is not a robot, but a severely mentally ill patient. The reason why she imagined herself as a robot was to "revenge" her grandmother and kill all the doctors and nurses. In fact, the family she lives in is a mentally deformed family, and the seeds of her mental unhealthy have already sprouted quietly. The male protagonist is also a family and is mentally abnormal.
The bud of their love may stem from the same psychological pain, they will feel stable and comfortable together and heal each other.
When the male protagonist was "repairing" the female protagonist, he used a pencil to draw a door on her thin back because of not eating, and when he saw her protruding vertebrae, tears immediately flowed down and flickered at the corners of her eyes, Fall hard.
Finally, I would like to say that the soundtrack of the film is just right, very nice.

I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK quotes

  • Park Il-sun: I did all kinds of things in jail. Because I felt I was vanishing. I stole other people's clothes to wear. And I brushed my teeth diligently. Once your teeth start to go, there's no turning back.

    The mythomaniac: That's true.

    Park Il-sun: I had a psych evaluation and they said I'm schizophrenic and anti-social.

    The mythomaniac: Anti-social?

    Park Il-sun: Like stealing and fighting for no reason. And not having any sense of guilt or sympathy. But I don't know why they call me anti-social. I have my reasons for stealing. I'm afraid I'll vanish. I'm anti-vanishing.

    Park Il-sun: More than our socks are wet.
