So indifferent, but they all urgently need to be loved.
Tony looks like Barbara, and probably always stays with his mother.
My father felt that his mother was a betrayer from the beginning. She looked down on him, and he couldn't help being attracted by her. Brooks' obvious desire for control, he believed to be her grandfather's inheritance. He believes that his father is not a person worth mentioning, but his grandfather is the strong one. Brooks is keen on adventure, which is also what Barbara appreciates. Brooks looks for his grandfather, what happened behind his back to the Backland family. And Barbara completely ignores the affairs of this family. She lives in her own world and wants to enjoy and excite. Only accept what you think is appropriate. If it doesn't go well, you must vent it.
Finally encountered something that even if I vented, I couldn't let go. Brooks's departure ruined her life. She slept with the taxi driver and planned to pay him. She attempted suicide and seduce his son. She grabbed his son and never let go, became one with him, and made his son her funeral. In the eyes of outsiders, Barbara is a radiant crazy woman, in the eyes of her husband, a proud woman who is not obedient to women, in the eyes of her son, a arrogant and irresistible mother, and later a dilapidated woman who wants to wipe herself out. .
Tony has always been restrained and calm. He is also calm when he is always a little nervous mother. He knew his mother, and because of his understanding, he decided to kill her without authorization. Not an impulsive choice. It may be said that it was considered and decided a long time ago, but it was just not done. Mother's despair easily invaded Tony's emotions. Once Tony wanted to stand up as a thorough insider, he had to take destructive actions.
He was born in this kind of family, he has this kind of parents, including everything about his mother, he admits his fate and is comfortable in it.
Tony is passive, he is Barbara's son. He will endure more than his father, Brooks. Brooks chose Blanca who was concerned about his life and left the mother and son. On the surface, his departure was a betrayal of the mother and son, but in Tony’s narration he denied the harm to him. Tony believed that his mother The injury is heavier.
Barbara couldn't stand her husband running away with a little girl. It's like she couldn't stand Tony being gay a long time ago, but when she realized that her abilities were limited and she couldn't change the status quo, she cursed. She will never lose it, she can speak four languages, and she is a devil to young people. Barbara cursed Brooks who ate the young grass in public, but she unbuttoned her son's trousers on her sofa. She has never been humble at all, arrogantly and Lingran as an attacker and saboteur. Her possession is not the simple and crude rape sex like Brooks. She will take you to bed after you are attracted to her, sex is in line with her inner needs, casual but there is a feeling of struggle.
For a moment, I felt that Barbara went out to fool around to maintain her twisted relationship with Brooks. Her desire for Brooks made her do so, and Brooks was the vehicle to satisfy her desires and all other needs. Barbara lives in her own world, and she pursues the sense of order in this world, she is the center and order. For the girl Tony brought back, she wanted Tony to fuck her, but it turned out that Tony fucked her and Brooks also fucked her. It doesn't matter, but Brooks left herself because of this girl. This kind of "destruction" may be what Barbara needs, and she can get pleasure from it.
Mediocrity is unbearable. Tony climbed onto Sam's bed. This was the beginning of an incestuous relationship. In fact, Tony could climb onto Brooks' bed. If so, Barbara would not have to commit suicide. Then Sam climbed onto Barbara's bed, and Tony naturally climbed up too. Embarrassed Sam left the mother and son early.
No wonder Barbara, who returned to Paris, was about to commit suicide. Twisted and tangled desires will accumulate in a narrow space and will not be released. If the 3P time period can be used as a reference for happiness, then there will be no indulgence and unhappiness in the future. There is no middleman, and the moral or other pressures that the two have to face (the two may have less orgasm).
At the end of the conversation in the kitchen, Tony asked Barbara what the note was and why she wrote it. At this time, Tony had already picked up the knife. I'm not quite sure why Tony picked up the knife. It must have nothing to do with anger and shame, not even for whom. He said: "Now you are calm." Tony ended Barbara, but it was not over, he was hungry, and he ordered takeaway. He was sentenced to a mental hospital and later returned to the United States with his grandmother. Almost ten years later, he stabbed his grandmother in a dispute and soon committed suicide.
I worry that Tony has always lived in Barbara's world, and even his sexuality is implied by Barbara. Tony's spiritual world is all about this woman. I think that Tony's method of death is suffocation with a plastic bag, which can be regarded as evidence of his life. It's just that this boy longed for love in a world without love, and finally gained a sense of presence in his indifferent mother. Asphyxiation is a method of death without air, a method of death that isolates you from what you have never left, a method of struggling and cruel suicide. I think Tony knows this. He knows too much and he has to die.
Sorry I forgot that this is a movie involving incest or homosexuality. To put it bluntly, neither of these are taboos in the movie. The real taboo is a secret phrase like "notes", as long as it is spoken, Tony will kill. Just like the ice cream dropped on the side of the road, it will attract ants. It is instinctive. Murder is an accident, manslaughter, suicide is premeditated, but suicide attempted. The result is there, the others are up in the air. I haven't read the original work, but I heard that it was the screenwriter's great adaptation that made the movie a work with plot and tension. Many people think this is a film that they don't know so-called, but I watched it twice. I think that in addition to the acting skills are worthy of recognition, the screenwriter and director have done a very clear analysis of the absurdity and perversion of the characters.
You said that no matter how good a movie is, how much you like it, how much you can think of in ten years.
I guess I can forget the horse riding scene, because it is in many movies, but those who eat ice cream will remember it. I will remember Barbara counting the buttons, and maybe order a large takeaway after the murder.
