Terrifying power of control, the master's anatomy of human nature goes deep into the bone marrow!

The play within the play: the film itself, the play, the gap between the play and the play

Role conversion: 1. The male lead director and the female lead are led to be replaced with them 2. The male lead plays the role in the play and the female lead plays the role of the lead. 3. Mutual transformation between the abused and the abuser. 4. Maybe we can substitute the master as (the heroine in the movie and the heroine in the drama), the torture of our audience (the hero in the movie and the hero in the drama), and the anatomy of us outside the movie?

In the movie, the male protagonist hates life without passion, and he also lives a life without passion outside the theater. The drama itself projects the male protagonist's hidden impulse towards sadism and being abused, so he goes deep into it, and we outside the movie Perhaps it also has its impulse, which is hidden among us in the hustle and bustle of people. Similarly, as the male protagonist in the movie said, we are keen to raise the nature of things beyond life, to find a noun, a term or a term for it. It is a kind of meaning, and this meaning must be lofty, sacred, and not allowed to be blasphemed. This may be our hypocrisy. In the movie, the male protagonist believes in the original purity of the appearance of things, and reprimands the female protagonist, including the present people, who blindly elevate the thing itself beyond the pure meaning of the thing itself, but facing the problem of the female protagonist: the drama is written for himself, Write what he thinks, write what he loves, and the male protagonist chooses to deny it. This is the male protagonist's falsehood. In the drama, the male protagonist tries his best to remain different from the other directors in the female protagonist's mouth, but he is burning with lust. These two are in themselves. This kind of unreality is also a kind of disguise, which may also be a common phenomenon in the current environment.

    In a psychedelic drama performed by only two people in a closed theater, Polanski is really a genius. The never-ending entanglement and interaction between real and virtual, historical and contemporary, male and female, domination and obedience; the perfect script, performance, scheduling, lighting and soundtrack make people forget the time; the opening and At the end, the transition shots inside and outside the theater are cool, treacherous, avant-garde and perverse; the effect is outstanding in the exchange of identities and the walk between the play and the play. (9.0/10)

    Relaxed and happy, about obedience and being obeyed, the inside and outside of the show are integrated. The script is so explosive, the scheduling is really heroic.

Venus in Fur quotes

  • Vanda: Any other director I know would have already jumped on me.

    Thomas: I'm not "any other director".

    Vanda: Bullshit. If he thought he could, he would have already done.

    Thomas: Not true.

    Vanda: Not even if I allowed him?

  • Thomas: Hail, Aphrodite!

    Vanda: So, you haven't forgotten.

    Thomas: Forget? My most dear and old enemy?

    Vanda: You're too kind.

    Thomas: Yes.

    Vanda: I don't have the right to a little kiss? That's better, Thomas... Oh! I said Thomas? Oops! It's so cold in here. Every time I come to visit you, I am cold.

    [sneezes]

    Vanda: See? I already have an inflamed bronchi.

    Thomas: If you do not passed time to walk around naked...

    Vanda: However, I am Venus, I have to be naked. It's part of the job. Don't you want to take off those rough clothes, come and hold you close to me? There is so much room here under my fur.

    Thomas: No, thank you.

    Vanda: I brought this vision to you, directly from Olympus. It's divine. See the label? Made in Olympus.

    Thomas: Why? Why should I care about your vision?

    Vanda: I know your small flaw. You're not interested in women. You feel concerned for their fur, and you should marry an otter.

    Thomas: I understand better with an otter than with a woman.

    Vanda: But if I spread my legs under the mink, you'll refuse a little love?

    Thomas: It's "a little love" you suggest? No, it's the power that interests you.

    Vanda: Dare you resist me?

    Thomas: Yes, I dare.

    Vanda: Séferin, I want you on the ground, at my feet. Beg me.

    Thomas: Never.

    Vanda: You already belong to me and I will belong to you until the end of time.

    Thomas: Never.

    Vanda: Auf wiedersehen, my friend. The back.

    [breaks from character]

    Vanda: And then poof, it disappears.
