Director Chen is a person who has definitely studied ancient Greek mythology. Of course, he must have seen the Greek tragedy "Oedipus King", and he must be familiar with the Trojan War. Because the so-called mystification of the whole story is to pay tribute to these literary works.
The people who live with the gods in the opening film are drawing nourishment from ancient Greek mythology. It's a pity that the gods in other people's myths have a close relationship with people. Those gods come to the mortal world to find a wife, mix and mix in wars, etc. It's not like in this infinite world, there is only one head like a broom, and it laughs like a brothel girl. The gods are looking for trouble here and say one prophecy after another. Of course, if there was a woman like Qingcheng in ancient Greek mythology, those immortals would have been unable to hold back, so how could you mortals work so hard here.
And the only god in Wuji seems to be learning from the witch in King Oedipus (it seems to be a witch) for these unfortunate people to kill their father and marry their mother. It's just that this god is worse than a witch. The witch predicted this once, but this broom head (does it really mean a broom star in it) can't get along with people again and again, and only with good people, never. Cursed the Duke of the North. What kind of god is this? Moreover, Duke Bei seems to know the agreement between Qingcheng and Manshen, which makes people suspect that Duke Bei and Manshen are together.
There is not much to say about the connection between the Trojan War and this film. Director Chen means that you have Helen and I have Qingcheng. You can make two countries fight for a woman for 10 years, and I can make everyone fight for a woman. Change of character: Duke of North because she doesn't trust anyone, General because she no longer leads troops to fight and prefers to live in the countryside, Kunlun because she can ignore the master's words. Che, you Helen, it's just a story. In China, we can sum up a four-character idiom: Confucian beauty brings disaster to water.
So far, Wuji has been associated with those treasures of human history, so Chen Director said that this script has been brewing for a long time, and it is definitely worthy of respect, because it is estimated that we are not able to mix these things in one pot.
What's more, since a funny movie "Shrek 2" that pays homage to many movies can win thousands of applause, why can't one of the best directors in China be respected by everyone because of their worship of Western classical literature?
But here I still want to know what this infinite world is expressing, is it just fate? If it is fate, isn't it superstition according to the understanding of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television? Since the superstition of "The Promise" was released, why is the reincarnation theory of "The Big Man Has Great Wisdom" cut to pieces? well! The world is unfair! This is also destiny!
