"Doctor Strange Love" tells an absurd comedy about how the madness caused by reason destroys the world. The full name of the film is called "Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb", which is its only name, not Like "Dr. Strange Love" introduced in the general media, "How I learned to stop fear and fall in love with bombs". The reason for this special statement is that the name is a whole. "Dr. Strange Love" points out the soul of the entire movie. "How I learned to stop fear and fall in love with bombs" is a perfect interpretation of the content of the movie. Dr. Strangelove, Dr. Qi Ai. Dr. Qi Ai's strange love, loves war and destruction. At first glance, this may be a more reasonable explanation for strangelove. Dr. Qi Ai in the film seems to have a sickly fondness for war. When the Soviet Union revealed that its device capable of destroying the world was about to be activated, he showed uncontrollable excitement. When everyone thought that the crisis was lifted and cheered, he again Shrinking alone in the shadows, showing calm disappointment, and as if waiting patiently, and finally when the world will be sure that it will be destroyed, his face finally shines, vividly beginning to describe the survivors will be underground During the nuclear age life, his right hand also broke free of his control and performed Nazi salutes twice uncontrollably. At the end of the film, he miraculously got up from his wheelchair and shouted: "The Führer , I can go!” It seems that we can simply interpret Dr. Qi Ai as a Nazi destruction maniac lurking at the top of the United States waiting for an opportunity, but for his name, Strangelove, that is, the name of the film, it is necessary to go deeper. What does this "love" refer to? To understand the love of Dr. Qi Ai, you must first understand, how did I learn to stop anxiety and fall in love with the bomb? First of all, where does the anxiety come from? It is said that the Cold War suddenly intensified in the 1960s, the United States and the Soviet Union were engaged in a nuclear arms race frantically, and the core purpose of the competition was to deter each other. What is "deterrence"? Dr. Qi Ai said at the end of the film: "Deterrence is an art that makes the enemy feel fearful when launching an attack." Deterrence is an art. Its purpose is to make the enemy feel scared. It is to let the enemy know if If you dare to hit me, I will retaliate wildly, and the end result is that everyone is finished together. The US government’s deterrence method is to fly around the world with nuclear-powered aircraft flying day and night. The nuclear strike force they carry is sufficient to completely paralyze the Soviet Union for the purpose of retaliation. In order to save money, the Soviet Union simply built a set of devices capable of destroying the world. As long as the Soviet Union suffers a nuclear attack, the device will automatically activate, and the entire creatures on the earth will be destroyed together. But the art of deterrence has an ultimate big BUG. It only serves to prevent war from happening before the war starts. If the war does happen, the entire retaliation mechanism is meaningless. Everyone is dead, and who is profitable. Who? But in order to make deterrence work, it has to ensure that the entire retaliation mechanism can function smoothly, so that the enemy can be deterred, so the Soviet Union put it completely under the control of the machine. This is a logical vicious circle, and what can eventually be introduced is the madness caused by reason. The film was released in 1964 In 1974, ten years later, in 1974, the Soviet Union launched the Perimeter program and established an early warning system called the Doomsday System. Even when the country has been wiped out and the country has lost its brain, it still has the ability to initiate a nuclear counterattack. When the system makes a counterattack judgment, a nuclear counterattack will be initiated by an on-duty officer in the control room. At this time, this person on duty will be the last barrier to destruction. If he presses the button to initiate a counterattack, the North American continent will become the hell of life in half an hour, and the ensuing nuclear winter will be the end of mankind. . At that moment, the fate of all mankind was in the hands of this little watchman. Throughout the Cold War, everyone had a sword of Damocles hanging above their heads. I have to admire Kubrick’s foresight. No wonder John Pike, a leading American international security and military analyst, once said, “Everything about nuclear strategy can be learned from Dr. Strange Love.” The film also became a university. The textbook content of international politics and nuclear strategy research. Although the film directly expresses the anxiety and criticism of the Cold War, it ultimately exposes the absurdity of the war. The commander of a certain US air force base suspected that this was the result of a Soviet conspiracy and launched a nuclear strike against the Soviet Union because of his sexual dysfunction; the US president cautiously called the Soviet prime minister to explain that this was a misunderstanding, and the other party was I answered the phone in the brothel and got drunk, so the dialogue between a country’s president and a country’s prime minister became commonplace among the people, even more interesting than the cross talk on the Spring Festival Gala; The password for the contact was not able to call the president because he had no money. Finally, he had to steal money from the vending machine. During the period, he was threatened "If you can't find the president, I will hand you over to Coca-Cola for sanctions." "; The plane equipped with nuclear bombs has gone through all kinds of dangers, and finally completed the mission without humiliation. Everyone thought that they would be rewarded, but they did not know that they had become the sinners of mankind. When the captain rode the nuclear bomb excitedly to the target , His cowboy spirit was finally manifested. At that moment, the curtain of world destruction was opened by him, but he felt that he was a hero... Clementchu said: "War is too important to give it to the generals." The commander in the film said: "War is too important to hand it over to politicians." What Kubrick wants to say is "War is too important to hand it over to humans." Let's talk about anxiety in detail. . (Warning: The following content involves adult content, please bypass for sensitive readers) Almost all viewers will find that the film is almost everywhere in the film. Sexual cues, such as the shooting angle of the two planes at the beginning of the film and the soft soundtrack "Please Be Gentle", and the nuclear bomb under the captain’s crotch, which is an unmistakable symbol of erection, and it adds a little bit to the film. Searching, you will find that the name of each person in the film is nakedly pointing to a certain noun, and there are many other details. Whether you can find it depends on the level of their respective connections. So, now there are two possibilities. One, Kubrick is a perverted porn man, and two, these sexual cues are all pointed. I choose two. The anxiety that the Cold War brought to the people at that time was beyond our imagination. (Even the Chinese at the time could not feel it. Because of the news blockade in the country, everyone was extremely optimistic to fight for the realization of communism) Kubrick This anxiety was projected onto sex, and through the mouth of the commander, he expressed "a huge sense of exhaustion, followed by a feeling of emptiness." "Women have been chasing the marrow of life, women are close to me, and I will not run away They, but I refuse to give them the marrow of life. "It is conceivable that the commander has been holding back his own desires and "essence". The long-term swelling and unbearable caused him deep anxiety. This is similar to the United States in the Cold War. Finally, he released his anxiety, issued an attack command, and the cigar (Lenovo) in his mouth rose high. When the lustful general received a loving phone call from his secretary and lover in the war room, he also looked worried. He kept explaining, "I want it, baby, but I can't now." And the bomb-riding machine Long, how excited and cheerful he is. He waved his cowboy hat with his right hand and grasped the bomb under his crotch with his left hand. The expression on his face seemed to shout proudly: "I have an erection! I got rid of the depression, I I finally got an erection! Look, it’s so big!” And finally when Dr. Qi Ai excitedly and rigorously described the life of taking refuge in the underground, he pointed out that the male to female ratio should be positioned at 1: 10. Everyone’s faces shined brightly, and the general’s eyes expressed this desire even more, as if everyone was saying "God, this is what we are looking forward to." So, the whole movie is there. A sexual depression-the process of sexual release, this change is brought about by Dr. Qi Ai, who brings normal or crazy sex to people with sexual dysfunction, and brings ultimate to people in anxiety Freedom-Falling in love with bombs and letting war break out, there will be no more anxiety. This is the love that Dr. Qi Ai brings, the love to all mankind, the strange and rational love. This is the meaning of Qi Ai. When the film is here, it finally reveals the ghosts and horrors under the surface of the comedy. Some miscellaneous "Doctor Strange Love" is an absurd comedy. Its biggest feature is that no character in the film is absurd, and no one is used to express comedy. Every actor’s performance is well-designed, even No pretentiousness. The absurdity in the film is entirely from the absurdity of human beings. And this kind of comedy is called a comedy. The kind that Hong Kong often shoots now is not called a comedy, but called a farce. It is still played by Star Master in the last century. Regarding Dr. Qi Ai’s disobedient right hand, this symptom is not a symptom fabricated by the director to express something deliberately. This kind of case is called hetero-hand syndrome. If you are interested, you can Baidu yourself. Today is Valentine's Day, but the author wrote a film review of an old 1964 film, which seems a bit out of date. I can only say that this is a coincidence. However, whether the adult content talked about is a disappointment for the festival or an excitement, regardless of the author's business. Believe me, I'm just a kind bachelor. -------------------------------------------------- ------------------- ps: Part of the content in this article refers to the film reviews of the Great God of Xixia, as well as the related content of Liu Cixin's "Three Body Three", which is not specifically marked here, see It’s easy to find the ones you have passed, and you won’t look for those you haven’t seen.
