The key to the back door was thrown away, and the front door was locked one by one. In a closed world that rejects outsiders, there are only test tubes. , Utensils, powder, only the gentleman-like Dr. Jack, and only Hyde after the transformation. Whether it is differentiation or fit, in this science laboratory, everything is refusing to call science "absurd" in the real world, but when Hyde created terror, created chaos, and subverted cognition, that door After being pried away, all his misdeeds were made public, and under everyone’s arrest and attention, he turned from a demon to a doctor. He has surprised everyone, and this public transformation is actually revealing the human soul. The evil in the world exposes subconscious desires, and exposes the evils that are concealed under good-looking clothes.
Closure is not a deliberate escape from Dr. Jack, but actually a rejection of secular concepts. In the first 4 minutes of long shot, Dr. Jack was hidden from the camera. This is the world he sees. In this world, there are all the etiquette and institutions, such as the housekeeper Poole’s flattery to him, such as the need to go out. Putting on a coat, you must wear a polite, such as entering the University of Saint-Simon, someone will give him a coat, such as quiet under the lecture on the podium. This is an order. For society, it represents identity, fame, authority, and etiquette. But for Dr. Jake, he is a viewer drawn into this order. In front of him is the kind Poole, a polite coachman, a smiling doorman, and a respectful listener. He sees all this with his eyes, but the opposite of seeing is that he is veiled. He is hidden from the camera. He even saw himself as the person in the mirror-he appeared in the mirror, put on his coat and hat, and then went out with an expression that should be respected.
The mirrored life actually implies too much deception. The subject of Dr. Jake’s lecture at the university was about the duality of human beings. He believed that the human soul pursues light on one side, while the other side expresses darkness, one side is human nature, and the other On the one hand, there is the animal nature, and the two sides of man are in eternal confrontation. Moreover, Dr. Jake's explanation of this topic is revealed through scientific means, that is to say, the duality of human beings can be proved through scientific experiments, not reasoning, not guessing, but proof. So when he published this argument and result, he was questioned, ridiculed, and ridiculed by others. "This argument is too ridiculous." So he split people into two diametrically opposed two-faced people, in the traditional concept Under peace and order, it is considered a fallacy, which actually puts Dr. Jack and his scientific method on the opposite of tradition.
Dr. Jake, a well-known scientist, represents knowledge and reason, but also represents a kind of identity and reputation. In the poor hospital, he helped Mary who was on crutches throw away the crutches, so that she could re-establish her confidence in life; he comforted Mrs. Lucas, who yelled for pain in bed, agreed to perform an operation on her to relieve her pain; he even postponed attending a banquet prepared by his fiancée Miao Li’s father, General Caru, in order to have more time in the hospital for comfort and treatment. These patients. Therefore, Dr. Jake is even more representative of kindness, and he works hard for the health of his patients. Knowledge, rationality, kindness and health are the attributes of Dr. Jake to the outside world. Therefore, he is a gentleman who conforms to social norms and is at the top of society. And he loves the beautiful and noble Miao Li, and Miao Li also loves her, and they hope to get married as soon as possible.
Career and love are the bright side of Dr. Jake. If he just lives in this bright life, then Dr. Jake may be just a single person, or even a depressed person. When he went home with Lennon that night and met the beaten Ivy Pelt, his bright side began to be deconstructed. In the beginning, he was to rescue the bullied woman, and even as a doctor to give advice to the injured Ivy Peelt, but when he entered the door holding Ivy Peelt, everything seemed to have changed. Faced with this handsome gentleman, Ivy Pelt began to seduce him, but Dr. Jake did not refuse, "You shouldn’t wear a camisole, it’s not good for your health." Dr. Jake’s suggestion has actually turned into action. When Ivy Peelt took off her stockings and clothes, they finally hugged each other, and even stroked their naked bodies on the bed.
Lennon came in and witnessed all this. He thought it was a loss of dignity and courtesy, but in Dr. Jack's opinion, it was normal, and this was the dark side he mentioned in his speech. When leaving Ivy Peelt’s residence, in addition to her "come back early" seduce in Dr. Jack's mind, there was also the thigh shaking on the bed. These pornographic scenes occupied his mind and brought this gentleman into his mind. The dark animal world. Desire opens up another world. For Dr. Jake, he is actually demonstrating his views on the duality of the human soul, so in order to be more convincing, he even personally experimented with a doctor, doctor, and kind person. Become an ugly, cruel and evil person-he transformed into Hyde.
Drinking the cup of potion he made, in a locked laboratory, in a closed space alone, he completed his transformation in just a few minutes. He abandoned all kindness, all dignity, all prestige, And to the darkest place of human nature. He left through the back door of the laboratory, and then went to Ivy Pelt’s residence. When he did not find her, he went to the vaudeville theater, and finally saw Ivy Pelt who asked him to open the evil door, and this time , He opened the door completely, no dignity, no morality, no conscience, no order. He is the representative of evil. He used violence to solve the obstruction of his waiters and customers. He forced Ivy Peelt to drink, accompany himself to be happy, and brought her back to her residence to release his desires.
But whether it is Dr. Jack or Hyde, just as he has proved with science, light and darkness, humanity and animality, reason and desire, are always fighting, when he transforms into Hyde, he does those dirty things. After that, he always has to change back to Dr. Jake. This is a kind of return. This is a kind of ending that light defeats darkness. Therefore, after returning to a normal gentleman, he wants to marry Miao Li immediately, and love and marriage The huge resistance came from Miao Li's father. General Karoo said he was rude and scolded him for understanding the rules. Restraining him with a set of social rules made Dr. Jake extremely dissatisfied. Therefore, in this dissatisfaction, he hoped that he would become the Hyde, the evil man who released his own desires and annihilated his conscience.
In fact, what this duality brings to Dr. Jake is not chic, but torture. On the one hand, he has to become a respected doctor. On the other hand, he must release his desires. On the other hand, he must observe various etiquettes. Morality, on the other hand, he wants to escape these norms. At the beginning, his transformation was to prove the duality of human beings and to prove his scientific achievements. So when he drank the potion and became Hyde, he said: "Free, finally free Now, you addicts, what do you think when you see me?” That’s a sense of accomplishment after the success of scientific experiments. After he turned into Dr. Jackie, he sent another fifty pounds to Ivy Peelt to help her, in fact for atonement, and when Ivy Peelt came to him, he also told her, That Hyde will never show up again.
In Dr. Jake’s view, he transformed himself into Hyde for the sake of experimentation, so he took the initiative to take the bottle of preparation, but the duality of human beings is an objective existence. When Wipelt’s residence was seduced by her, she could no longer hide the evil in her heart, so when she left the laboratory and the preparation, Dr. Jake could no longer stop the transformation, that is, the transformation behavior. It has changed from a controllable active experiment to an uncontrollable passive change. This kind of passiveness made him sink deeper and deeper, and in the end he couldn't get out of himself, and almost let him go to death in a destructive way.
One time was to attend a dinner party prepared by General Carew. In the dinner party, he will announce the marriage contract between Miao Li and Dr. Jake. Dr. Jake was originally heartbroken. On the way, he saw the birds singing in the trees. This is wonderful. A symbol of, but a black cat swallowed the little bird. A scene of destruction finally made Dr. Jake no longer able to restrain the evil desires in his heart. He transformed into Hyde and rushed into Ivy Peel. Ivy Pelt, who had just returned from Dr. Jack, seemed to be immersed in the help of the famous Dr. Jack, and suddenly the devil descended on him, "Death has come." He said to Ivy Pelt: " He confirmed a person I hate, I will give you someone who loves you when I Xiu'an, and his name is Death." Then he strangled Ivy Pelt to death with the last violence.
The second time was at Miao Li's home. The previous night, General Carew announced that Dr. Jake did not attend the dinner party, but this time he told Miao Li that he had to leave her in order to set her free. The inexplicable Miao Li is of course not willing to leave Dr. Jake to leave her, and Dr. Jake’s farewell is a kind of self-help, because he thinks that she is an evil and indecent person, not worthy of the kind of beautiful love, not worthy of the beautiful Wife, "I am cursed, I have been sent to hell, and I have no soul." Leaving is for better love, for self-confession, this logic is only known by a person who has experienced fission. Such a decision can only be made by people who have experienced the pain of transformation, "God, I have no intention of doing this kind of thing. I trespassed into your kingdom and entered the forbidden land of mankind." So Dr. Jake must leave and leave this place. A decent but hypocritical life, leaving this self surrounded by evil.
But he couldn't really leave. When he looked back at Miao Li, who was crying in pain on the piano, the dark power in his heart turned him into Hyde again, and the cry of "Don't make me change" had no effect. , He became an evil and ugly Hyde again, and then broke into Miao Li's home, beat the people at home, and then returned to the laboratory under the pursuit of the police. "There, that's the murderer." Lennon, who knew the cause and effect, finally said all the reasons, and when Dr. Jake transformed into Hyde for the last time, a bullet hit his body and he fell on his own. In the laboratory, he fell on the console that was preparing.
A kind of death is the death of transformation, the death of two-faced personality, the death of light and darkness. When Hyde finally becomes Dr. Jack, it is not a return after death, animality and humanity, desire and Reason, primitiveness, and civilization co-exist in everyone’s world. They are Dr. Jake and Hyde, and scientific experiments are just a kind of witnessed proof. When Hyde became Dr. Jake and finally died. This kind of eternal contest of human nature has never stopped. In the laboratory, that large jar of preparations seems to be still tumbling in the heating, just like everyone’s heart, there will always be strong and shocking humanity opposition, and there will always be uncontrollable and uncontrollable opposition. A painful choice.
