"There are more patients in the world who don't wear patient clothes"
My brother Shang Tai is an autistic patient with cognitive deficits and emotional control disorders. He speaks bluntly and often makes jokes because of his ingenious brain circuits and unexpected behavior. He reminds me of the harlequin in Shakespeare's comedies. Harlequins in Shakespeare's comedies are not only for gag, to enhance the comic effect of the drama, but to let fools, lunatics, fools and other harlequins play the role of social "watchers", using their crazy words and behaviors to carry out the truth of life. It is clear that let the truth of mad words and behaviors reflect the hypocrisy of people and the absurdity of life. There are also many harlequin-like characters in the play, such as the congressman's son who appeared in the second episode, and his series of crazy behaviors, such as exposing his body, spending money frantically, racing cars, making a scene at the father's election canvassing scene, etc. It's all like a carnival. This carnival is presented through the slow motion of the camera and the fiery and warm picture, which makes people feel that this is a human utopian picture of annihilating levels, eliminating barriers, expressing one's heart, and letting the world harmonize. In fact, the intention of rendering the harlequin carnival is to accuse the injustice and cruelty of the world in an entertaining manner, expressing the affirmation of human life and the yearning for freedom.
In addition to the elder brother Shang Tai, the younger brother Wen Gangtai can also talk about it. Compared to his brother's "stupid" and Wen Ying's "crazy", he seems to be extraordinarily normal, responsible, considerate, and has a mature and steady body that does not match his age, but it is this calmness that is exactly what he is. A kind of disguise for himself who is extremely lacking in love, forcing himself to grow up, forcing himself to be normal, forcing himself to be steady, so he laughs like a clown, a kind of sad laugh (Speaking of this, we must praise the acting skills that we all teach And there is a segment in the play that pays tribute to the movie "The Clown", which imitates the dance of the clown, which is innovative and interesting)
Every episode of this drama will present the fairy tales drawn and written by the heroine Gao Wenying in various ways. The fairy tales written by her are dark and treacherous, and the story lines are tragic. Every fairy tale focuses on being hurt and being hurt. The twisted mind, trying to drive away the haze of the mind, brings some resonance and comfort to the injured mind.
Let me share a little story or two that left a deep impression on me!
1: "The boy who grew up eating nightmares"
This little story is asking how people can protect themselves and heal themselves when they are hurt by others. Everyone is in a huge social network with intricate connections. "No one is an island", but the arrogance and harm that people receive when connecting with others are often like the nails. Even if a piece of wood is pulled out, it will leave a hole that cannot disappear, and in the end, the heart will slowly become riddled with holes. Wenying has long accepted her mother's twisted "love", her father's absence, and the prejudice of others, which made her live with a lonely soul from childhood to adulthood, and her heart has long been trapped in that castle surrounded by thorns.
2: "The Dog of Spring"
In Wen Ying's dream, her mother's death and her mother's violent control over her made Wen Ying entangled and tortured by nightmares. Gang Tai heard Wen Ying's sobbing and ran into Wen Ying's room and hugged Wen Ying. Wen Ying waited for this moment. Too long, too tired to wait, because Mom will "kill" Wen Ying's prince to save, and her own prince will run away from her like a coward, so that she will act like a possessive, like Paranoia who treats people like objects. Therefore, the relationship between her and Gang Tai is mutual redemption and mutual dependence, becoming each other's medicine.
