Man: The Turkish movie is very classic and the story is interesting, but I still have many questions. First of all, what is the relationship between the film and the three monkeys?
kindness? You never do your homework? I probably know about it, three monkeys, sculptures in Japanese temples; don’t look, don’t listen, don’t talk , do you have Zen? The key is to see what special meaning and symbolism these elements have in this film...
Have you noticed that there are a lot of stereos and background sounds in this film, the most prominent ones are trains, mobile phones, high heels, and various noises...
M: Yes, yes, is this also knowledgeable?
Of course, the art is hidden here! We see, this family living environment, generally this kind of place can only live in such a place, housing prices are extremely cheap, noise pollution! The key is to imagine if you live in such an environment, do you often think of the sound of trains passing by the rails...
That's for sure! I have tinnitus...
What I want is this feeling! The phone is in the bag, you don’t pick it up, and your heart is itchy . Think about the plots and pictures, is it true for many...
Man: That's right, that's right! The hostess’s phone rang upset, and even though the ringtone was singing, it was still too harsh. Also, the male protagonist was about to answer the female protagonist’s phone, but suddenly there was no sound, and then it rang again, and he had to answer it, but found a problem...There is also the office, the bald politician also answered the phone many times...
This is what the director wants to express. If you don’t listen, you can’t speak...
1 The so-called don’t be rude, the mother cheats, and the child feels upset after watching the scene
2 The father struggled to persuade his wife to jump off the building or not? Can't bear it, persuade? Heart trouble!
A lot of plots are like this:
I don't want to watch, listen, or talk... But I can't let it go!
Man: It is true! And I found out that my son slapped his mother...
You see, this son in this movie is a waste of wood. He didn't dare to challenge the bald head at first, and he was able to fight with his mother...Of course, he couldn't help but kill in the end...
Man: Well, I looked like a man in the end!
In fact, his father was the same. The bald head gave him a green hat. In fact, he had long suspected, but in the end he didn't dare to retaliate. He knew that he would take a woman out of anger ...
Let's explore the root of the problem, which is actually the typical patriarchal ideology , the culture of the nation and the roots of inferiority!
Man: I think this mother is coquettish too, half-old milfs, coquettish bitches... Haha
When the son went to visit the prison, the father felt that his son was hesitant when he knew that something was going on at home, and it was still such a dirty thing...
Know his wife Moruofu, know his son Moruofu!
Therefore, the husband in the film must ask what is going on, this green hat is really uncomfortable...
Man: Really, not only did he go to jail for baldness, he was also put on a green cap. No one can stand it! Don't look at this male protagonist who is very manly, in fact, he is also useless, almost like his son! In addition, this bald politician is not a thing!
If you don’t want to listen, who can do it?
Well, we need to find the main idea below to truly understand this movie...
Man: I have a question. How does a boy appear in this film, that is, another son whose father died? He has nothing to do with the plot...
This is the point! Later, we will explain the idiom to you once: The ghost will never go away!
In fact, all the plots of this film are interpreting this idiom: tell you what is not going to go!
Man: Oh, I see, is it like two mobile phones ringing, the phone ringing, and the sound of train leather shoes, so you will never forget, can not let go , and become a shadow and bump in your heart...
That's what I mean! Just like that child, who is both the brother of the waste wood and the son of the father, there is no need to prepare here, you will know how close their family members were once...
This is normal! There is another photo of the three men...
This photo is actually a posing, analogy to three monkeys , otherwise the name of the film will make people feel very abrupt, so this photo does not have much meaning...
M: Then why does this kid show up?
If you don't listen, don't look, don't want to, that group of shadows will also appear, this is the lingering spirit!
Man: Oh, I see, it's like the family that I lost, right?
That's what I mean! The director uses various methods to instill a certain idea. This is called art. Can you get it?
Male: Well, there is a feel... you continue to talk
In fact, many shots of this film are like this, like the heroine taking a bath, but because the audience knows the inside story, they also fight because of the couple through the glass...
This is the sense of substitution! Let the audience experience the various conjectures caused by what it means to be unable to let go ...
I probably talked about some details. The phone rang and my father answered (the bald head asked the male lead to make an appointment). At this time, the son came out of the room to go to the bathroom...
The implication: You don't want your son to hear the disturbing call, but is it useful? In the middle of the night, the call came, and it was bound to wake people up...
Male: I see, the director wants to say: Don’t watch, don’t listen, don’t want to, that’s impossible!
Also, the heroine takes off her shoes...subtext, get rid of the shackles , what happens afterwards, mother cheated and fooled with bald head, right?
The son asked his mother whether he should wear a tie, and then the son went to go to the beach... In fact, it means to get rid of the shackles. Is there anything wrong with it?
Man: Wow, really! This is called lens language!
That’s right, this is a typical movie language , and the so-called movie symbols, in fact, these are the contents...
If you don't understand the theme of the whole show, it is difficult to see these doorways!
When we watched this scene, everything about the mother (it turned out that the son was peeping) had a panoramic view,
Man: Hey, I should treat you ashamed...?
But it's troublesome, you shouldn't have watched it anyway, just keep watching...Finally, the mother cried and pleaded with her bald head. It was really a vain dignity and absolutely not to face ... the son saw this scene simply want Go crazy! It's a shame and shame, and I couldn't bear it, and finally killed that bad, lustful, treacherous, and cunning bald politician...
Ghost baby, the second appearance, it is really lingering. After looking for the brother to find the father... Note: The ghost baby appears when the relatives are lost, such as after taking drugs and seeing the father half-waking up. Hesitating, when at a loss...
So we must be qualitative: what is the lingering soul?
Not only the ghost baby, but also all kinds of suspicion and shame, including those voices, the sound of the train... These are all called lingering ghosts!
So when I saw the woman step on the balcony, there was the sound of the train again...
Male: But I found out that the woman did not commit suicide at that time!
It's definitely here! We see that the husband did not try to dissuade him at this time, hiding behind the wall... It shows that all this is subconscious, in fact, he wants his wife to commit suicide in his heart, because he is too angry and feels too shameful!
These evil thoughts are all called: the lingering spirit!
Man: I see. There is indeed a dialogue. The husband told his wife to go and asked her why she didn't jump off the building...?
We pay attention to a picture: in the restaurant, the politician’s election poster is on the right side of the TV, broadcasting the marriage scene...
Don't look at such a small lens, there is a lot of knowledge in it:
Male: How to interpret this?
Subtext: The marriage and family that appeared in this film are completely tied together by politics!
Oh, that bald head is indeed a politician, does it represent politics?
right! The so-called small see the big!
Titles remember, long shot, background is late at night, only a shiny cars ...... metaphor focus!
At the end of the film, the clouds are overcast, and the man is standing on the balcony...
Man: What does this mean?
See the big in the small! The director is suggesting to you, don't think that the story of this film is just a personal tragedy, a family tragedy... This tragedy is completely triggered by the nation, the country, and politics!
We have said before that male chauvinism, the whole nationality is like this, male chauvinism does not care about the dignity of a woman, as long as he cheats, the whole family will be shamed, and the son will dare to beat his mother...
Man: I have been wondering why this woman would bear the humiliation so much? She is actually very beautiful and hardworking. She goes to work every day to support her son and family... If this is a female star, why suffer so much?
That's right, so now that everyone becomes an internet celebrity, he wants to succeed, have money, and be recognized by the society!
I won't go too far, in fact, this film has already explained similar reasons! You see, why does that restaurant guy live in the restaurant?
Male: Because he doesn't have a home, if it weren't for the boss to take him in, he would have to sleep on the streets!
The reason is here! The heroine of this film is also in this state, she has no dignity under the fence, and every smile on her face makes people feel like a smile!
Man: Ha, what you said, it is true! The status of women of this nation is really poor. They are tied up by their families, their sons and husbands...
The key is that it is difficult to get rid of being tied up by folk customs and politics!
Look at the ending plot and ask yourself: What made the guy who lives in the shop commit the crime? Is it just the hero ?
It’s better to go to jail than in a restaurant...? What kind of logic is this, for the poor, how terrible such a society is, it is really hopeless, nowhere to go !
Male: It 's the society, it's the country , and those lofty, shameless politicians who are ruthlessly crushing the poor...
Imprison your body, possess your body and soul... See the big from the small, do you understand the director's intentions? At the end of the film, the male protagonist does the same, and continues to exploit people who are poorer than him...
Male: As long as it is due to human nature?
No, it's politics, it's ideas! Backward thinking keeps the people from awakening, layer by layer, and repeat!
Male: Absolutely! However, I feel that this movie still has some flaws! From the screenwriter's point of view, you admit that you do not admit that the story of this film is a bit too hasty, very abrupt, and the rhythm is not good! For example, if the male protagonist asked the restaurant guy to commit crimes to his son, a few scenes were taken away... If I were a screenwriter , at least I had to add some extra scenes, such as letting the police knock on the door, investigate, and suspect his son...
Stop it, too amateur !
Why can't Chinese movies go out, why are domestic movies so rubbish ? Those of you laymen , lay scriptwriters and laymen’s directors are the creators of it!
The entire academic circle of the film industry is filled with two knives and mallets that you self-righteous...
Male: You can scold me. Since I choose to engage in art, I am not afraid of being scolded! My emotional intelligence is high, I can bear it! But in the end you have to give me the answer...
I have always emphasized: See the big from the small !
What made this family, these people so desperate? Is it the situation? No! It's the general trend, the general trend...
Just like the end screen;
A cloud, the storm is about to come: the general trend of society, the general trend of the country, politics and history... Who can get rid of and stop this dilemma?
Man: Wow, that makes sense! No matter where they live, they can't get rid of the noise of the train... The problem is that no one thought of interpreting these?
How many times have I said that the master director, in a film, he wants to express his thoughts in every way! From the picture to the structure, there is one more scene and one less scene, how much pavement to keep...that must have its roots !
Look at the end of the film, the male protagonist stands upright, seems to be smoking and pondering these issues, right?
Man: Yes, there is indeed a fee! And I still remember that many windy weather in the film opened the windows and opened the doors ... there are metaphors like this!
That's right! These are all interpreted as unstoppable , and the ghosts will never go away !
There is a ghost in your heart, and the door cannot be closed! Don't listen, don't want to, don't watch, it's impossible!
Now you know what it means to see the big from the small, right?
Man: Oh! Learned a lot of things, haven’t spent money yet, haha...
