Anti-brewing and anti-eruption

When Yuan Ziwen filmed "Love Exposure", he was already eye-catching enough. When it comes to "Icy Tropical Fish", he can almost make me salute. The core of "Icy Tropical Fish" is still Yuan Ziwen's distorted love (extreme love) that Yuan Ziwen has always used to. This deformed love is still covered by family and religion. But this time Yuan Ziwen pulled out the extended face of love-material desire and killing desire. Material desire represents depression, because in order to obtain or hold on to something, one must endure. The desire to kill is the hysteria that erupts after the desire for material is suppressed to the extreme. Most of the movie is about the process of the small tropical fish shop owner being bullied by the big tropical fish shop owner who has more life experience and financial resources. Of course, you will always foresee the counterattack reversal of the last hero of the movie. But Yuanziwen's skillful hands caused the reversal to appear at least three times. The first time was the foreseeable protagonist's action, the second time the protagonist, after educating his wife and daughter with pain, he called the police, and the third time was the shocking abnormal state of the daughter. As the protagonist who hopes that "the earth is a smooth sphere," he expects the life that normal people should have, but "the earth was born 4.6 billion years ago and will be destroyed 4.6 billion years later." This is a boring world, no matter how hard you work, it is easy to be maliciously attacked. Many people think that this movie is heavy or CULT. They can only say that they haven't seen anything heavier. "Icy Tropical Fish" has no signs of heavy taste or CULT. On the contrary, it is more realistic like a gorgeous Ukiyo-e. The beautiful tropical fishes that are shining in the water tank are born to rise and fall in a world where the weak and the strong are eating. Yuan Ziwen allowed the protagonist and villain to move between depression and depression, emotional eruption and anti-eruption. They mutilated the body in the "God's Cabin" where the father sodomized his son. The lit candles reflected the daughter's ridicule at the end. . Are you looking forward to a happy life? That's nothing more than your wishful thinking. No one is afraid of others because of something. Everyone just suppresses emotions and releases them after waiting for the realization of the wishes in the heart at a certain moment. Goodness appears in the world because people are suppressing evil, and when evil appears, people are suppressing goodness. Both appear because of pleasure. The vast stars in the planetarium are nothing but the product of digital images, and it is far less exciting than reaching out to ravage the wives you meet.

    1. When the tragedy of character meets the tragedy of fate (the curse of the original family). 2. In fact, it is an inspirational film, Murata's teaching to the cowardly male protagonist. Our earth was born 4.6 billion years ago, and 4.6 billion years from now, the earth will also end its life. Fight fear with the sublime, fight the nothingness with the nothingness.

    Indeed, all kinds of torture + all kinds of rape + all kinds of flesh and blood...At the end, the Murata woman holding the remains of Murata who had just been mutilated by her own hands is the most shocking scene in the film! In addition, Yuan Ziwen’s handling of the ending is not simple. According to his design, the ending of the story presented the Hollywood ending, the tragic ending, the artistic ending and the Cult ending. In the end, he chose Kubu. Rick-style ending. . .
