"Bitter Moon" and "Strange Tenants" are my two favorite Polanski movies. Some of the moral issues in the film "Bitter Moon" have a sharp angle and are worthy of debate. Especially in terms of sexual psychology, I have never seen such sincere descriptions of sexual psychology in other movies. The film's complete nihilistic conception of the relationship between men and women makes people full of despair and suffering everywhere. Let us reflect on whether there is everlasting love between men and women. All that Oscar and Mimi did was to hurt each other in a way of hurting themselves, and finally ended their relationship in a cruel way. The two were originally in love, but they couldn't extricate themselves because they were addicted to sensuality. Although Mimi still loved Oscar, what Oscar loved was only sensuality. They thought they had found their own "soul mates", but what they explored most deeply was their dark sexual desires. To paraphrase Shakespeare’s lines ""to be or not to be"-"to be or not to be". Mimi and Oscar's love to tragedy, just like Mary. Shelley’s "Frankenstein" is a process from "survival" to "destroy", and the monsters are created by ourselves, and the monsters actually destroy us. It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong. It can only be said that the "objects" they created deviated from the track and turned into "monsters", which led to their own "destruction". Role-playing: Although the sex scene in the film is a bit perverted, it fits well with the theme of "role-playing" in the film. 1) After the two fell in love, they locked each other at home and played SM sex games. Mimi became a sadist, and Oscar was willing to become her slave (wearing a pig mask to learn how to call a pig, and Mimi holding a whip to find him ). Oscar is sexually willing to be enslaved by Mimi. 2) But after getting rid of the game, Mimi became a slave to Oscar, especially after Oscar's love for Mimi disappeared, and Mimi begged to do anything. (In reality, Oscar is dominant, and Mimi is reduced to Oscar’s efforts and obeys Oscar.) Like a movie poster, Mimi’s dance is more like an ancient sacrificial ritual, and she worships The god of is precisely Oscar's superior "male chauvinism". 3) Finally, after Oscar abandoned Mimi and was crippled by a car, the role-playing relationship between the two reappeared: Oscar became a helpless piggy again, and Mimi became a "sadist/nurse/wife" Trinity. Oscar said that he is a personality adventurist, he said that they have tasted almost all the ways of sex. In this abnormal way of sex, Mimi always dominates, Oscar is passive (no matter it is a normal way or the abuse of SM); in reality, Oscar is dominant, and Mimi's position gradually Downgrade, even watching Oscar flirting with other women. However, the turning point was when Oscar broke his leg, and Mimi became dominant in reality, so Oscar was extremely inferior, and he became a weak male character. This contrast in sexual psychology directly led to the tragic ending of the two. Nigel, the British conservative hypocrite, is a very important role that Polanski has created. Oscar wants to express his story quickly. He needs an audience. Nigel of the "Seven Years Itch" is also full of curiosity about this story, and is full of sexual fantasies about Mimi, and the audience is also full of this story. Full of curiosity. But because of moral factors, Nigel didn’t want to listen to this story because of the face (really a clinical manifestation of British conservatism...), so the role of Nigel also represents the audience, just like "Rear Window", because Nigel is the third person, and the audience is the third person's quadratic. Nigel becomes the carrier of the audience, thus achieving the purpose of eavesdropping and peeping. The characters in the play are very distinct. Everyone has a face. They are far away from our lives, but sometimes we look at them also living by our side, even we ourselves are that kind of person. The two men in the play are weak, one is a coward, the other is a coward, and the female characters appear to be very great. Finally, briefly talk about a few metaphors in the film: 1) When Mimi gave Oscar KJ, the bread machine behind Oscar sprayed a slice of bread, which was quite happy; 2) The moon appeared many times in the film and all were full moons. Only Oscar abandoned Mimi, who was on the plane alone, and looked out the window. There was a waning moon in the night sky; 3) Mimi was discharged from the hospital after receiving the disabled Oscar, wearing a red dress in the cool scene. The scary coat has a very strong contrast, directly revealing Mimi's revenge; 4) The young daughter of the Indian captain in the movie implies hope in this relatively dull story. Let the British couple who do not plan to have children shine, maybe they should have a baby, maybe the end will not be a cup. This also indirectly implies that Mimi's abortion changed her own destiny at that time. 2) The moon appeared many times in the film and all were full moons, only Oscar abandoned Mimi, who was on the plane alone, and looked out the window.
