Then I watched "Young Adam", secretly applauded, but also full of doubts. After that, I have always said that I have to remember the view I finally decided to sort out tonight, saying that it is sorting, whether I can clarify the entanglement is without confidence, bit by bit. Think again, this film is a big mystery for me today.
1. There is
a swan floating on the water, the music is quiet and profound, hidden mystery, and the viewpoint leads to the underwater. In the turbid green, a female corpse in a bottom skirt appears, emerges from the water, and is discovered by the protagonist Joey on the shore, Joey and Reese picked up the body together and called the police. The author started to tell this tangled story with an accident, but it was really calm.
2.
Joey, a former literary youth and working class, lives on the ship with the barge owner Reese and his wife. Female corpses have become a rare topic in Canal life. Reese always mentions it, and Joey always recalls the cold touch of putting his hand on the back of the corpse, but he has a more realistic and urgent desire in his mind. During the meal, Joey rolled up his pants and pressed the girl. The host Aina’s legs, without encountering resistance, boldly stretched her hand into the Aina panties and was removed. Joey succeeded that night. The gloomy and depressed Aina was not satisfied with Reese’s physical needs. This night she finally groaned happily under the young Joey. Afterwards, Joey mentioned that the police were investigating the woman who died in the water. Ina asked, "Why did you mention it?" Why mention it?
3.
Afterwards, Joey had an affair on the beach with Jia Fei, who was sitting alone on the beach (Woody Allen's supporting actress in Match Point in 2005. Later, a Google discovered that she had appeared in more than 70 movies and she was still a director, sigh!) The first lingering occurred behind the reef. The appearance of this passage without warning is that the director has quietly disrupted the order. The sensitive audience may have begun to doubt, so to make this passage deeper, the author immediately picked up the "action scene" where Joey jumped into the river to save Aina's son. In my opinion, the significance of this drama is more focused on diverting attention and continuing to keep the audience on the barge.
4.
Joey's desire for Ina or Joey and Ina's respective desires still can't stop. Ina's regret and tears appeared weak in Joey's kiss. He continued to seduce, and she continued to betray (I doubt my own statement) , Is honesty with desire to seduce and betray?).
5.
Seeing Jia Fei again, Joey went to the city to visit the bookstore and met her again on the street. After Joey told her recent situation, Jia Fei did not take his job seriously. Jia Fei cared about why he couldn’t have a decent job, but it all Can't stop two people from bursting with passion on the dock late at night. At this time we know that the two had a relationship. Is it love? Is it love? This dew marriage.
6. The
boat was parked on the river bank, and Aina couldn't stop relying on Joey in the cabin, even if Reese was outside the boat or even next door.
Reese was driving the boat on the deck, and Joey and Ina had sex fiercely in the cabin.
7. When
Joey was alone, he took out a mirror with Jiafei's love for him inscribed on it: "Think of me when you look at yourself. With undying love
. C" 8.
It's time to announce the answer. After Jia Fei and Joey Wharf love each other, Jia Fei tells Joey that she is pregnant (this part of Jia Fei's performance is really good, so good). It turns out that they used to live together, and Jia Fei broke up two months ago. It’s a pity that Joey laughed at her suggestion of "have a beautiful baby together" and asked if Jiafei had been with other men in the past two months. Jiafei knew that the child belonged to Joey, but she did and others A married plumber is dating, and now we can’t agree, Joey couldn’t help but say he was leaving, and Jiafei fell into the water while chasing him.
Halfway through the voyage of the film, the two time and space are clearly distinguishable, and the author also understands the parallel method of telling the story. The mystery has just begun when it is confirmed that the dead body is Garfield.
Joey looked at the dark river water, discarded all Jia Fei's clothes, and fled the scene. In a panic, he was especially careful not to stick fingerprints. This isn't just a sturdy heart, right? Among Joey’s mistakes, this is the only thing that can be called evil. This man who is keen on erotic and adventurous shows the most despicable qualities as a man at this time, fragility, cowardice, and selfishness. This is the only thing that sticks to him. Memory, from time to time, pulled him from the intoxication of "Individual Survival Vertigo" to the cold water, and stared at the dead body.
Isn’t there actually a more despicable man? Joey did not deceive after all.
9. The
suspect in the floating corpse case was identified as Jia Fei’s plumber boyfriend, and the newspaper with the photograph of the floating corpse case sank into the water. It seems that the outcome has been determined.
Reese finally finds that the two are stealing joy, Aina is extremely calm, and Joey is slightly at a loss at this time. Ina is the original owner, Rees left the barge, he asked Joey: Did you of Think the What 'S My Son going to happen the while you are fucking My wife?
10.
Have sex, have sex, between life with Ina, Joey will still remember the past of him and Jia Fei, their small wooden boat swayed with the waves and body on the lake.
When Reese comes back to fetch her own things, Aina is indifferent, preparing for a divorce. Ina's plan for the future is to sell the barge and buy a small house with Joey. Joey has no objection, but he is mostly distracted.
11.
Ina's younger sister is a new widow, and Joey is with her again. Are you going to leave Aina in this way?
12.
Everyone in the tavern was discussing the verdict of the floating corpse case. Joey recalled the days when he lived with Jia Fei, Jia Fei worked to make money, and Joey wrote novel novels that could not be written all the time at home. Joey put a bowl of custard Pour it on Garfield, take the stick and hit Garfield's ass, sprinkle the seasoning sauce on Garfield, and enter her body from behind in a mess. The two climax in the cheerful jazz, Joey got up and went out. (It is unforgivable that McGregor wasted this wonderful scene.) With
roundabout repetitive theme music, Joey returns late at night, and Jia Fei has sleepy eyes like a kitten, wrapping Joey's neck. (This is the most beautiful and sad part of the whole film, almost crying)
13.
Aina looks back to Reese. Joey finally decided to leave.
He has an affair with the new landlord’s wife again, but his life has come to a complete halt as the floating corpse case accelerates. He went to the court to hear the trial. In the court, he remembered the situation when Jiafei broke up with him. After the breakup Joey threw the typewriter under the bridge. The typewriter was buried under the turbid green water. Here, Joey met Reese. The story was stitched up, and it owed an ending.
14.
Joey saw Reese testify in court, saw Aina also in the audience, saw the innocent plumber powerless to defend herself, and imagined Garfield soaking in the water.
I doubt it was because of love. Maybe it was the beginning of sorrow for life, maybe the accumulation of persistent guilt. Joey wrote an anonymous letter to the court (still dare not stand up), and the plumber was sentenced to hang.
Joey left again. He walked to the water's edge, threw away the mirror, threw away the look of himself, he decided to throw away the memory.
This is a very convincing ending that makes me deeply saddened, because there is no such thing as the so-called “salvation” (this is really a bad word) that is false and gleaming.
At the beginning, my so-called confusion is precisely because I can’t judge Joey. , When I thought about it again, I felt that there was no problem in convicting Joey's morality on the basis of Garfield. In addition, the general morality is empty in this story: Should Aina's desire be condemned by the law? But should Aina's weakness be used by Joey's desires? From this point of view, Joey never respected any woman, and his desires never intended to stop. However, if the desires of every woman in the film should not be suppressed, Joey's desires will continue to flourish for the same reason. Faye fell into the water, what if Joey fell into the water? What if Reese angered Ina and killed her? Who is responsible for whom?
If no one can be responsible for anyone, what is heavy is all unreasonable guilt. Joey has been trying to judge himself.
Why is it a young Adam? Maybe the author thinks Joey is the original male model. He is not a perfect creation. The penis is his only characteristic. His intentional or unintentional requests come from real and ugly desires-the only thing he can give.
The reason why it happened on the canal is also very simple. Because of its turbulence, it is a portrayal of our lives. The essence cannot be stopped. At every time and place, there are different shapes, difficult to see, difficult to describe, but Do everything hurt on your heart made of flesh. The Hong Kong translation of "Dead Love Water" is very unique in this sense.
In fact, I still don't think about it clearly, but I regret that Jiafei's arms and gentleness can't change Joey, and it eventually becomes a memory that Adam can't bear.
When we broke up, Jiafei cried and said Sorry to him, and Joey said What's to be sorry about? It happens. "It happens", the female compatriots keep their eyes open, don't meet this kind of person, if you do, just have fun.
