A recent event I saw made me think about the movie The Crucible.
I think everyone should know that the melting pot is based on real events in Korea in 2005.
There should also be many film critics who have mentioned the more hopeless truth behind the film. For example, just like the film was shot, this incident did not receive a fair trial. It was not until after the film was released that Korean netizens protested. The police have re-investigated this case—the case of sexual assault and violence at the Gwangju School for the Deaf, South Korea. The protagonist in the film, the teacher who really exposed the case in reality, also said that the film only shows one-tenth of the situation.
It's not really a "good to watch" movie, which means that when watching a movie, it can be very painful and uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but avoid the picture a few times, but I watched it very hard. Done.
I really want to pay deep respect to the actors and directors here, especially the actors who played the twins, they are really very courageous.
This article will mention to you a few theories that are more boring and usually no one wants to pay attention to.
The reason why I mentioned this is because the first sentence mentioned "something that happened recently". When my friend was discussing it with me, she suddenly mentioned that she really had a hard time understanding the thoughts of the perpetrators and wanted to get rid of these people. Happy with it.
Therefore, I couldn't help but check some relevant data about the behavior patterns of sexual assault perpetrators.
A researcher (Groth) proposed in 1980 that the motivation for sexual assault is usually not due to sex; two subsequent researchers (Beech and Ward) also suggested that sexual assault is usually not simply to satisfy physical needs, but There are poor self-concepts, distorted cognitive beliefs and internal needs.
Judging from the film The Crucible, the perpetrators target students who are clearly disadvantaged (deaf children, poor social support), partly because these students are "relatively non-threatening", and partly because they are "relatively non-threatening" It may be the existence of distorted self and beliefs, and the behavior of the perpetrators in order to prove that they can "master" a person in the process.
Therefore, it is particularly unbearable, especially, the recidivism rate of sexual assault perpetrators is not low.
The film is not perfect from a cinematic point of view, but it exists far beyond the film itself, and even made the Korean government pass relevant bills.
In this way, I only hope that such incidents will become less and less, and the children can grow up safely.
