but a salad bowl (the United States is not a melting pot of cultures, but a bowl of salad mixed with various cultures). ——Title After watching this movie which lasted less than two hours, my mood fell to the bottom. In many cases, things happen or not happen not because of your abilities, but because of your skin color or the stereotypes of your race. The heroes and heroines in the movie, that is, the queen and the thin man on the poster, have a normal background in the movie. The queen is a lawyer. Although the thin man does not say what his job is, the close-ups of his parents and family environment in the movie are just ordinary. The family is the same as an ordinary or even upper-middle class white family. The only difference is that the thin parents are black. Yes, this film is also about the unfair treatment of black people in the United States. The last time I watched Daniel Kaluya (the actor in the film, playing Slim) was his starring "Get Out (Escape from the Deadly Town), a cool film-it covers the shell of a thriller and tells the stereotypes about race in an almost joking way. For example, black people are good at basketball, sprinting, jazz music, and instrumental work. . This time, Daniel Kalua’s role is to use a cruel to heartbreaking story to tell another stereotype of black people, drinking alcohol, hiding drugs, like crime, and must come from a poor family or background. In the first fifteen minutes of the movie, the stereotype of these black people has been dismissed. The thin man doesn't drink alcohol. There is no drugs in the thin man's car but sneakers. As for the shooting, it was because of the excessive defense caused by the police shooting first. At the same time, the various close-ups of the movie also imply that the police without God’s perspective saw only two stereotyped Afro-American youths-when they saw the thin car driving unstable, what they immediately reported to the radio was " Drunk driving is suspected, although there is no evidence on site.” When he saw the brand new sneakers in the back-turned compartment, the close-up of his face seemed to imply that he thought these new shoes were stolen; so in the end, when the queen began to tell the police you When we had no right to search our car, the police lost control of their emotions and caused the final tragedy. This process is completely a perfect definition of stereotypes-don't care about individual differences, but define a type of person or this person based on past rumors or events. In the process of the queen and the thin man running, this stereotype always follows their road trip. The black dad I met on the road clenched his fist and said "Hung up"; the black bartender in the black bar said "You are safe here"; the black woman on the dance floor nodded to them can also be interpreted as "brother, there is We, don’t worry"; and the black policemen who let them go afterwards all said a stereotype-people of the same skin color must be helping people of the same skin color. As for the white sheriff in the neighboring state that she encountered at the beginning of the run, the queen herself said, "He is a policeman, and he said he wanted to help us to catch us"; at the gas station, the thin white man was pointed with a thin gun. Young man, who knows if he really just wants to touch the gun? There is nothing wrong with whites versus blacks, police/civilians versus fugitives. Because of this, when they ran to Florida, The black man who came to pick them up held their face with a gun. They were just panicked, but the audience didn't realize the hint behind the gun on the face. When the police rushed to them to intercept their flight to Cuba, many viewers thought that they had a little back, and even that the white couple betrayed them-who made them have different skin colors? In particular, the hostess said that if they were handed over to the police and they could get a bonus of $250,000, the mortgage would be paid off. Stereotypes not only obliterate the differences between people, but also let people relax their vigilance and easily lose their ability to judge. Those in suits and leather shoes are all first-class people, and those with big gold chains and big gold watches are all underworld. Although this film is not a true story, it is inspired by the shooting and killing of black teenagers by white police officers who shocked the United States. In simple terms, this case was a 17-year-old black teenager who went to buy sweets and ran into a white policeman on the road. The white policeman thought it was impossible for a poor black boy to live in such a good neighborhood, so he drew his gun and killed the teenager. After that, the Black Lives Matter movement that swept the United States began to reflect on the black and white of American society after Martin Luther King, who was the Martin Luther King MLK who delivered the "I have a dream" speech. What happened between the two sides, or between the various races. The redemption symbolized by the cross also runs through this road escape journey. The first time the thin man appeared in the costume was a dark blue turtleneck sweater with a delicate small cross hung outside the collar. He had to pray before eating; there were crosses in the room he lived, and the crosses hung in the cars he drove through; the fields he drove through From a distance, the telephone poles erected on the side are rows of crosses. This redemption seems to be completed in the travel of one's own people to help their own people, as well as white people and well-wishers, people mistakenly think that this movie is a story of black and white reconciliation and great unity. However, in the end, the cross was just a symbol hung on the wall, and the real redemption did not come; it coincided with the story of the thin man about his childhood asking his family "where did the child come from": Grandma said "the child is from God" From there," the thin man jokingly said that now he knows that the child is just the product of a nimbus friendship (here is the original saying in the movie "baby is from af***, which is blocked). The real salvation has not yet come. Whether the different races in the United States are more equal or more segregated is still inconclusive. The stereotype seems to be getting stronger and stronger. For example, last year’s "Crazy Rich "Asian" tells a story about the wealth and status of Chinese Americans. Then there were robberies against Chinese Americans in California and other areas with many Chinese Americans. After all, who made Chinese Americans crazy rich? For another example, if you keep talking about a region or skin color when telling a story, then it must be racial discrimination. The appearance of stereotypes is a manifestation of the human brain's ability to extract information and acquire knowledge. If you keep seeing positive or negative news about a certain race or a certain group, then people's impressions of this race or group are basically positive or all negative. To get rid of stereotypes, the human brain needs to work harder. For example, if you see a person, don’t judge the person’s kindness, good or bad according to the skin color, dress or work, but need constant contact and understanding to judge. one person. At the same time, the guidance of public opinion can help eliminate or weaken stereotypes. For example, the Chinese do not only read books and do not exercise; blacks are not poor, but lack opportunities; and so on. There are no shortcuts to the elimination of stereotypes, just like the road escape in this movie, there is no end, there are only seeming traps and real traps, and stereotypes one after another. This is why you can't give up thinking and learning, otherwise you can easily step into the trap without knowing it. Ah, so tired, there is no shortcut, which makes me sad. rich.
