Let me talk about the position first. At present, I am very satisfied with the overall thinking, story, and plot of the drama. It is a relatively outstanding American drama.
The following topic.
Regarding this episode, it cannot be parsed from the story content set in the episode. In fact, each episode of this series cannot be parsed in this way. The periphery of this series of stories is based on a theme as a framework to compose the story. The details of the story fall into the paradox prepared by the director. From a general perspective, the second episode talked about the "excessive arrogance" represented by the white man. This is a self-reflection of American culture. Since World War II, the United States has established a world pattern that radiates the world. The scope of this radiation includes not only economic technology, but more importantly, the political and cultural encirclement of countries around the world. American culture forms a powerful culture that invades the world, and "arrogance" is a very typical manifestation of this culture. There are actually many symbols of this in the film. There are multiple races on the plane. The white brother first "intervened" the Middle Easterners to watch the video on the plane wifi, and through the stewardess's reaction, we can know that the wifi does not affect the flight. , And the nervous attitude of this little white brother and the disdain of the Middle Easterners seem to have strengthened the image of "Middle Easterners are terrorizing." The attitude of the little white brother towards "Russians" and female "air generals" can also reflect a certain stereotype with a deep American imprint. This American stereotype, interfering with others' behavior, arrogant, arrogant, nervous, and never-reflective personal traits is an allusion to American power culture in the film, and the film deliberately let the investigative reporter direct and perform a show at the end. The hijacking drama, and the death of the Yin-Yang Devildom, is another American reversal, which is an irony and reflection on one's own culture. Of course, this is not a new trick, and it is seen in major newspapers, articles, and film and television works. Another last point, the little brother was not besieged by the survivors, he fell into the Yin and Yang Demon Realm. From the beginning, the narration outlines the general characteristics of the Yin-Yang Demon Realm. There are things, shapes and thoughts, but life and death are not connected. Moreover, the scenes that the group of people appeared were also very strange, not the feeling of a living person, they should still be deeply trapped in the neurotic fantasy of self and could not save themselves.
