Watched the second part late at night. First of all, I want to say that this movie is by no means a simple erotic film, even if it is full of images and erotic scenes of many sexual organs.
The director is really crazy. For such a person who dedicated himself to art and dedicated his heart to the extreme, lunatic is undoubtedly a compliment to him. I haven't watched a few of his movies, but as long as you have watched "Dogtown", you can understand that one of his pleasures in making movies is to use his sharp needle-like contrast and contrast to pierce the hypocritical and swollen pussies of human nature. Human nature is his favorite topic. He does not advocate the theory of good nature, but tends to the theory of evil. The theme of this film may reflect his values. He believes that the evil of human nature lies in hypocrisy.
Our heroine is also the storyteller Joe. Let's take a look at her name first. Joe, as a very popular name, is an informal name for people who don't know each other. For example: See that Joe sitting at the bar? He's a good Joe. (See that guy sitting at the bar? He is a good person.) As early as 1911, Joe was used to refer to ordinary people who don’t know their names. , Is especially popular in the military. For example, GI Joe is a slang term for "American Soldier".
However, this "ordinary person" is not ordinary at all. The reason why she was able to become the heroine was not only because of her special habit and beauty when she was young, but also because of her sincere character-to frankly ask a 15-year-old boy if she could take away her virginity, and to confess her to a strange old man. All the stories, talking about Negro but not discriminating against black people and even going to bed with them (she believes that the prohibition of the use of a word is specialization, and specialization is a kind of discrimination)... Why was Joe angry when he asked the hospital to perform an abortion for her ? Not only because she was hindered from exercising her right to terminate the pregnancy as a woman, but also because she saw the hypocrisy of the B-ultrasound doctors and psychologists trying to persuade her to keep the child. "I have had children, and I know what I want." And they, ignorant of her, think they are doing the right advice. Of course she was heartbroken. She left her own son and took away her second child by herself. "The embryo is not painful, it's me who hurts," she said. While choosing to pursue an orgasm, I also gave up the time to accompany my children. She abandoned her son and let him watch the light on the ceiling alone in the cradle. Later, she waited for her little lover to collect debts from her ex-husband for the tenth day. She abandoned her ex-husband’s and first love 3+5 love, and later was beaten alone. Watching the 3+5 humiliating sex between the lover and the ex-husband in the urine. She has no complaints. Choosing some means losing some. A fair business. If you want something, you have to sacrifice one of the things you had and pay for what you want. Isn't this life? Eason sang: "Use what I have, and exchange what I don't have. In fact, I have exhausted what I have." And I think that everything in life is not regrettable, just fine.
Looking back at the other protagonist, Seligman, the listener of the story. Ignoring that his name may be derived from a psychologist for the time being, the hostess once thought this name was very happy. The pronunciation is indeed somewhat similar to sillyman. At first I thought this was a small method used by the director to create a sense of contrast. Imagine a man named "Silly Root" who learns the rich five cars, knows astronomy and geography, catches fish but never sleeps. I accompany a woman picked up by the roadside and chatted all night, so empathetic, and comforted her with the attitude of a saint. However, the end is that he still can't escape the clutches of his curiosity, the clutches of sexual curiosity, the only domain he does not know. Or maybe he knew that he was going to start with her right from the beginning, so he followed and comforted him in every possible way. We have no way of knowing. But the only thing that is clear is his last sentence, "Anyway, you have slept with tens of thousands of men...". It is said that curiosity killed the cat. As soon as the words fell, Joe's gunshots had already sounded. In fact, he never showed any mercy for the hurt and pain she suffered from the beginning. This explains why he was able to analyze her and the people in her story so calmly, rationally, and objectively. Sensitively noticed the inconspicuous details in the story, notes, patterns, and images of mythical characters. In the biblical story, Adam was punished by God and deprived of eternal life because he was instigated by the snake and ate the fruit of the tree of good and evil. Before Adam ate the fruit, they didn't know evil. They didn't understand or could not lie, jealous, fornication, greed and complain, but after eating the fruit, they could do everything. After hearing so many hypocritical sins, how can such a knowledgeable person not be curious about sex, the source of these sins. But it was not sex that allowed him to expose his nature, but the discrepancy between his words and deeds. Discrepancy between words and deeds is also one of the manifestations of hypocrisy.
When father and joe helped the snail return to the grass, they never asked the snail to pay back. And the most important thing is that they are ashamed of seeing each other's good deeds.
Why do people feel ashamed after doing a good job? I remembered that when I raised money for the disaster area in elementary school, the head teacher said that everyone brought ten yuan, but I brought twenty yuan. The teacher did not praise me publicly, but added this sentence to my semester review. Every time I saw this compliment, my face flushed in despair. But I am very grateful to him for not praising me in public. I know he doesn't want me to become the "most kind" in our class. I began to understand the meaning of doing good deeds without leaving a name. The goodness of human society only exists when all "people" are equal, and heroes and specials are symbols of power. Arrogance is the first of the ten deadly sins. People think they are special and so arrogant, and arrogant people will not feel ashamed because others praise his kind deeds, on the contrary, it encourages his arrogance even more.
We are all human beings, and we all have shortcomings. No one is perfect, and no one is heinous. There are only those 95% who restrain themselves and bear the pain for mistakes that they were born to be unable to change (perhaps sexual orientation, or other), and those 5% who choose freedom and ultimately have to suffer punishment are as ordinary as you and me. People.
Sex itself is innocent, and the guilty are hypocritical human beings. Jesus is dead, and we are all mortals.
