I personally feel that this film is definitely not a youth film, nor is it what some film critics said: "It is about the loss and growth of adolescence." Its beautiful optimistic theme narrates the family ethics drama of popcorn for all ages.
This TM is clearly a case of misplaced projection of the original family relationship in the eyes of a psychologist!
It is purely personal opinion. After reading the chest tightness, Lan Shou does not vomit, the following contains spoilers:
The behavior of baby sucking fingers replaces dependence on the mother's nipple. Many children will suck their thumbs when they need to feel safe. In the film, it is the son who is still sucking his thumb until puberty, but the father is clearly the one who has been looking for mom!
Every time this father appeared on the stage, his tone and body movements always made people feel airtight, like a baby who was in a condom and sucked on a pacifier and had no normal language ability. Some of the body and facial movements when interacting with his wife on the bed are also like a baby seeking comfort. In the middle, it was said that he was injured and retired from playing baseball because of the plot of his mother, and his tone was a helplessly wronged innocent and weak son. As for the mother, the husband’s part of the need for intimacy must be missing, and he unconsciously projects this part of the emotional need to the son (there is no positive description in the film). Of course, the son subconsciously resists taking on such a role! But I didn't realize it, and played the role of husband without knowing it (for example, I found out that his mother was "derailed" first, but also carefully concealed it from his mentally fragile father)
The husband is looking for his mother. Mom wants to play the role of her husband. The son lacks maternal love, which is normal. Recalling his father's abnormal performance in the opening movie, I am afraid it was not that he did not realize the source of the problem, but there was no sign to reflect on the impact of the misalignment of his relationship with his wife on his son. Instead, he accused the sickness of not being cured after spending so much money. Where there is an attitude to help my son solve problems, it is clearly acting, evading responsibility to conceal one's guilt, and by the way, strengthening the control of his wife and requesting maternal love.
The husband refused to give way, and the son had no milk to eat, so he had to suck his fingers.
At the end of the filming, Brother Boju appeared illogically and told the boy that although your mom is protecting your father and making you lack love, she actually loves you so much! Here comes an inexplicable great reconciliation! Black face: WTF?
The following is the same as the above, but it is also a wild guess: Does the director want to express that this kind of misplaced projection is actually common in many families where parents have a symbiotic relationship? Maybe you want to give the audience an opportunity to empathize from this potential issue? Or does the director just want to express his experience in a certain relationship? Or is it just a metaphor for the increase in life and the absurdity of destiny by using a process of reconciliation or collapse between family members all the time? The most likely possibility is that at first I just wanted to make a film "Adolescent boys are blackened, parental emotional misalignment and neglect of children bring evil consequences." Later, for the sake of business, he came out to shoot a big reunion and reconciliation. Anyway, the audience is good. Fool, film critics don't understand psychology?
PS: Both the judge's father and the promising young athletes who returned to the age of seventeen either accidentally injured their girlfriends' stomachs and finally lost their career prospects and became greasy uncles. These stories warn us with painful lessons: Young boys must take safety precautions when exercising! ! !
