At the beginning of the film, a prosthetic hand is thrown into the water, and the doctor's narration says, "This is inferiority in the form of a hand. I will fill the funnel left in the heart by inferiority." This is an important hint.
Doctor's wife/nurse clue
first appeared 35"
[The nurse suddenly noticed something while making coffee for the doctor and said "Your wife is watching again"]
However, at this time we can neither see his wife nor hear her .An
interesting detail is that there is a fake breast in front of the nurse. Does the image of the fake breast mean that the nurse's own inferiority complex also exists in the form of a woman/lover?
The second time appears 1'13"
[Background drums, the nurse is giving The blind man said "it's your wife again" during the injection. The picture cuts to the woman sitting on the bed and wiping the drum face. The background is the shaking high-rise building, followed by Okuyama standing in front of the window. 】
This time we can hear the "wife" with the sound of drums, but her image does not appear in the clinic, but can be understood as outside the window, outside the clinic. Does her act of rubbing the drum also mean that she is ready to appear?
This shot is from a close-up of Okuyama's eyes, cut to a blind patient sitting in an ear-shaped chair in a "thinker" pose. He laughed a few times after giving him the injection, then seemed to regain his sight and jumped to the center of his ear.
This scene is particularly nonsensical, and the only reference point is that the doctor said before that "blind people can sense obstacles based on the air pressure on their faces".
The third time 1'39"
[After the nurse and the doctor are intimate, the drums are playing in the background, the woman is walking and playing the drums in the background, the door opens when passing through the door, and there is an image of hair floating in the shallow water beach, and the doctor is studying a prosthetic hand.
The nurse asked "who killed whom" and the doctor answered "one of the three. Do your own research. ”]
In the above, my sister looked at several boats in the sea and said, “I don’t know what they are searching for. According to the younger sister's suicide by throwing herself into the sea below, it can be understood that the image of the hair at the door is also a floating corpse in the sea. So the boats are probably also searching for the corpse.
When Okuyama was drinking with the doctor, he told him that he was going to seduce his wife. The doctor said, "This is a dangerous triangle relationship."
So the doctor's so-called "three" is also the "Okuyama-Mask Okuyama" in this dangerous triangle relationship. -Okuyama's wife".
The younger sister used suicide to understand her inferiority complex, and Okuyama took up the knife to kill him. (According to the doctor's "one of the three" tips) Okuyama was going to go home and kill his wife, but failed because the doors and windows were locked. The contrast between the sister and Okuyama also reflects the dialogue between Okuyama and his wife who are different men and women (women are humble, men are vain).
The fourth appearance of 1'56"
[The sound of drums in the background, a woman sitting and playing drums in the background, the wife walked past the nurse and said, "Dinner is ready."]
The image of the doctor's wife not only appeared in real life, but also opened loudly. The nurse as a lover is also getting stronger and stronger.
The fifth time appears 1'58"
[The nurse in the leisurely outfit is washing her hands, this is the first time she has loose hair. ]
The nurse took off the nurse uniform and "washed her hands in a golden pot", no longer inferior or a sneaky third party. Okuyama, who was walking out of the police station before, said, "The beard has been tucked into the mask." Okuyama's body and the mask have grown together, and he is completely lost. The nurse did not grow up with the "fake me" like Okuyama, but took off the "fake hand".
At the end
, Okuyama didn't kill his wife, he walked aimlessly on the street, attacked women and deliberately got himself arrested, and let the law decide his own path. Doctors bailed him out, however, and they were walking down the road when they met a group of people wearing the same masks. Interestingly, they all came out of a library. When the doctor was drinking before, he said, "If everyone wears such a mask, there will be no sin and trouble in this world." Considering the film itself, it is estimated that this is a tribute to intellectuals, and readers are free and peaceful people.
The doctor said "You are free. You can do whatever you want." Okuyama said "I will." Then he killed the doctor. He touched his face, the face he once wanted, but now his life has lost all meaning, and there is only such a face left.
A loophole is that Okuyama was arrested by the police, although the police confiscated his belongings but did not find the knife wrapped in his newspaper?
The details are that when the doctor came to pick him up later, the police gave him the knife, Okuyama came out to make trouble, the doctor rushed up, and then others kindly handed Okuyama's package and windbreaker to the doctor. This also shows that the doctor can't live because of his own sin.
