Who is a pure person? At first I thought it was referring to the heroine, who told her to have Qiong Fangden's grievances when she stared at her, plus a closed and unfamiliar mansion, which made people think of "Butterfly Dream".
In fact, the heroine is indeed wearing a victim who tends to break into our field of vision. She admitted that it was the first time she came out to do something, which meant she was not deeply involved in the world. In contrast to her, there is a girl who is babbling, a boy who has been expelled from school for "harming others" before he shows up, a grandmother-style maid who is ignorant and spoils her children infinitely, and A former recruit who died mysteriously. A room of horror movies is standard, and it's very difficult to think about it.
The girl brought a tortoise named Rupert with her. As an experienced audience of too many horror films that use bad boys as gimmicks, we can’t help being worried about the tortoise at all times, for fear that the girl will trample it by pulling it in the next second. Kill it in a certain way. Moreover, the editing also deliberately brought the audience to this idea, such as directly replacing the calm face of the heroine with a dynamic scene of the little girl frantically squirting water, which suddenly and abruptly scared, causing anxiety and resentment towards the girl.
Although the girl will not abuse the tortoise for a while, the scene of watching spiders eating butterflies enthusiastically is enough to suggest the ferocity dormant in her cells. At this time we witnessed the heroine's defense against her, but we will not be surprised, because at the moment we are on the same front as the heroine.
Then came the boy's appearance, especially with the effect of "sniffing the lips before smiling", although he was first heard of notoriety. He was expelled from school for hurting his classmates. This echoed with the girl's behavior, so we were even more sure that the two children had problems. The hostess was worried about this. It was normal, but she said that the boy would contaminate her. The argument is a bit strange. I didn't pay much attention at first, but I knew it when I saw the end. This is the foreshadowing of the story.
Then came the boy's arrival, he had a mature age-this is of course, how could the boy as the source of terror be just a boy, we would think.
The heroine began to encounter ghosts like a victim of a horror movie, and another death was revealed in the process. Now we are more sure that the child is a demon and killed both of them for some reason. The boy in the middle confessed that he was a child who was ignored. Very pitiful, but we will think so that we will not be deceived by you. This should also be the idea of the heroine, she has always behaved very defensively.
The hostess's fear deepened, and she began to see ghosts in various corners. What can be noticed once by the water is that the female ghost in black appeared in the subjective shot of the heroine, but there was nothing in the reverse shot of the girl looking there. Probably only then will the audience begin to wonder if everything is just an illusion of the heroine.
As the heroine's state becomes more and more unstable, the caring people will start to reason, if children really kill people, will they still be so calm when a bystander arrives and frequently claims to hell? Of course, they may have a good mentality, but no matter how good their mentality is, is it possible that they will not even shake their faces?
Therefore, it is necessary to look back at the heroine and see where the fear penetrates into her bones-a person who is inexplicably afraid of ghosts will always have humanity gaps. The answer was not revealed until the heroine was kissed by the boy and then showed a satisfying expression. At this time, I later realized that everything about her was connected together-she was resistant and curious about the children's uncles. She grew up in a "very, very small" house, so she dared not speak out easily for fear of quarreling her father as a pastor. When she feels uneasy, she immediately asks for help from the Bible and the cross. Most importantly, she insisted on "innocent" almost paranoidly.
It seemed to her that the children were possessed by ghosts because they were no longer pure; the reason for no longer being pure was not that they might have killed two people, but that they were caught in the broad daylight friendship between the two dead.
This reminds people that before, the heroine said with great heart that the boy who was expelled would contaminate her. Only then did she realize that she was serious.
So far we have realized that the heroine is the hidden BOSS in this film. It was a bit late for her true face to be revealed, but her way was common, and she was a big category of Horror monsters--religious fanatics.
It is not difficult to imagine that she had the repressive life of the first half of her life. Religion surpassed her beliefs and became the code of conduct and the pillar of life, so she saw nothing to pollute her clean vision. In her vision, children should be innocent and pure. She didn't expect that when she first started as a tutor, she would encounter two children who were precocious because of their special family circumstances. They were outside of her experience, so she was subconsciously feared and rejected. She had to explain these two special children to herself, so she looked around, and finally tailored a horror story for the children in her heart. It's like grinding a round head for Fang Zi, just to make it match the only round hole she has prepared-her world is so narrow and rigid.
The British have a special category of women-old ladies. Years of repressive religious life made the heroine naturally become one of them. Not to mention reality, but the old ladies on the screen are always dangerous. The danger is that they tend to lose their mentality after being sexually stimulated, and then behave abnormally. Unfortunately, the heroine is reduced to another example.
The children’s uncle hit the female protagonist’s sexual reverie door for the first time, and she resisted this. For example, when she was reading her uncle’s letter, the girl’s sentence "You look very happy" was probably unintentionally and stating the facts. She denied it immediately.
Nit died for the second time. Nit is a handsome man, his appearance obviously impressed the hostess very deeply (it is necessary to mention that the hostess only started hitting ghosts after seeing Nit’s photos, which implies that the ghosts were imagined by the hostess), and then the maid Describing Nit as a person, the hostess is very interested and wants to find out. The hostess seemed very resistant when she heard Nit and her former tutor have sex in broad daylight, but the ghost sounds she heard afterwards all expressed the pleasure of the woman, indicating that she subconsciously yearns for sexual experiences.
Finally, and most absurdly, the little boy completely awakened the heroine's desire as a woman-sexuality and possessiveness. If the hostess used the children to be possessed to explain her resistance to the two children before, now she justifies her own morals. She "falls in love" with the boy-of course it doesn't work. But what if the boy is actually Nit, a real man? Although Nit is far from pure, the heroine at this time seems to have lowered the standard, thinking that this is also possible, because it is better than the boy who is the boy himself. So far, I have found an explanation for the heroine's forcing the girl away-the girl is a former tutor and her rival in love.
However, things will not follow the heroine's imagination, which eventually leads to tragedy-the girl has a nervous breakdown and walks away; the boy is scared to death by the heroine.
The hostess hugged the dead boy and kissed his lips again. The picture suddenly became very sick.
And what the film tells is indeed a sick story, full of sick people. At first, the hostess’s misunderstanding of the children was understandable, because the two children did carry horrible factors, but in the end we realized that this was only due to the fact that they could not get loved ones when they were young. This is clearly a causal story of "My childhood was very unhappy, and later...". The heroine, the real perversion in the film, is just another version of the story. They had their own misfortunes when they were children, and later they each grew into "abnormalities" of different degrees and appearances.
The heroines, boys and girls, are not pure people. Perhaps the truly pure people are hard to find in the world, but I think the truly pure people will never be a group of children who lack love.
