This article is just a possibility inferred after personal viewing and combined with other analyses. I don't know if there are any friends like me who like to ponder brain-burning plots and analyze the plot trends from the perspective of the director and screenwriter. If there is, welcome to discuss, if you don't like it, don't spray me. Thank you for
not repeating the plot here. Now let’s introduce the most crucial point. Does Min Tae Joo (the bad cop) really exist?
I think Min Taizhou (patrolman) is real, but note that the police officer position that exists is only a patrolman, and at the end of the film the prosecutor asks the male protagonist: "Why do you want to kill Patrolman Min?" It refers to a person, and This man is not a bad cop.
The real bad policeman is another character of the male protagonist.
I don't know if everyone noticed when watching the movie, Min Taizhou's facial expression, sometimes the sun is bright, and sometimes it looks cold on the back. That's why when I watched the movie, I always thought that Officer Min was the murderer. After the film ended, according to the analysis of the plot, I suddenly realized that I understood the setting of the dual personality of the male protagonist.
First of all, the male protagonist when he was a teenager killed his father because of his father's domestic violence. And the breaking point of the male protagonist is just a pair of shoes, which shows that the male protagonist has some abnormal spirit, and being in this environment for a long time has a great impact on himself. Coupled with the genetics of his father's violence, it shows that the male protagonist is not normal. The second point of having a "good foundation" for suffering from mental illness is that there are
very few descriptions of the male protagonist's mother. Generally, in this kind of domestic violence situation, the child will depend on the mother for life. If the father of the domestic violence dies, the family should have a better day. But her sister hanged herself, and her mother disappeared. From this, I infer that the mother blamed the male protagonist for killing his father, so at the end of the film, Min Taizhou (bad cop)'s half-pulled head, which was cut off by the iron, should be what the male protagonist's mother did to the male protagonist. It is possible that at this time, the male protagonist has already developed two personalities, one is a "chivalrous" personality that eliminates violence and An Liang, and the other is a personality that "hates women".
All the struggles between the male protagonist and Min Taizhou (the second personality of the male protagonist) in the film are all the struggles of the two personalities. Min Tae Joo's personality will fight hard to protect himself.
The hardest recording ever to explain! Remember, the recorder requires the finger to keep pressing the record button to record? If it just fell to the ground and encountered it, how was the recording completed? The answer is that those are all the struggles of the male protagonist in his head. When I woke up in the morning, there were no signs of strangulation on the hands and neck, but the male protagonist was indeed trapped at night. That is, when Min Taizhou's personality was displayed, his original personality was suppressed, and he could only let Min Taizhou's personality change his computer diary.
Another way of thinking: If Min Taizhou was the murderer, why didn't he just kill the hero when he sneaked into the hero's bedroom (so that he would not be exposed more easily), but instead claimed to kill the hero's daughter. First, Min Taizhou hates women: Second, Min Taizhou is the male lead, so killing the male lead is equivalent to killing yourself, you can't do that.
At this time, you will ask, the male protagonist played the recording to the director, where did this recording come from. This should have been recorded by the hero himself. Why are the voices different, because when different personalities are displayed, they will show different physiological characteristics according to the different settings of different personalities. (For details, please refer to the movie "Split", the 24-level split personality will make you burst out.)
At the climax of the film, the director drove to the final battle site. What I said was, I want to catch you, the murderer seventeen years ago. Seventeen years ago, Min Tae-joo should have been a child and could not have committed the murder of a cigarette-selling girl. Therefore, the director should refer to the male protagonist with dual personalities, which also means that the male protagonist may kill the cigarette girl. At the same time, the cigarette girl is not among the unforgivable people that the male protagonist said, so you can only She belongs to the ranks of women hated by Min Tai Zhou's personality.
Another point, which everyone saw, was a body being transported out of the house.
When the male protagonist was in the mental hospital, the prosecutor came to ask the male protagonist why Police Officer Min, if this Police Officer Min was the bad policeman, shouldn't the male protagonist's daughter explain the situation to the police earlier?
Some people suggested that after the male protagonist killed his wife seventeen years ago, his face twitched when he got home, saying that it was too much to lose his memory since then, but it is not true. As a family member of a patient with Alzheimer's disease caused by thrombotic cerebellar atrophy, I am well aware that these intermittent episodes can be traced back to when I was about eleven years old, when my grandmother had it. I have the symptoms of the disease, and I am twenty-six this year.
I think the twitching of the male protagonist's face is not only a manifestation of amnesia, but also a manifestation of personality switching.
It is worth mentioning that before the battle between the two personalities at the end of the film, the male protagonist's face did not twitch before he lost his memory. I think the male protagonist was pretending to have amnesia and wanted to take the opportunity to annihilate Min Taizhou's personality in one fell swoop, but unexpectedly, Min Taizhou's personality was not as usual. , but to start with the male protagonist first. I agreed to kill my daughter to show the male protagonist, a young and strong guy, with an old man behind his back, can't be strangled to death, isn't it too weak. It is precisely because this is a confrontation and struggle between the two personalities that the male protagonist's thoughts are exposed in front of Min Taizhou's eyes.
The victory in the battle indicated that Min Taizhou's personality was temporarily suppressed, and the male protagonist gave himself an illusion that Min Taizhou was dead and his daughter was safe.
At the end of the film, the male protagonist regards his daughter as his sister, while the previous male protagonist has always regarded his daughter as his wife. The elder sister represents the peaceful and normal side of the male protagonist, and the wife represents the male protagonist's hatred of women. So it is the reason why the male protagonist has two personalities.
At the end of the film, why did the male lead choose to commit suicide. I don't think it's possible to completely eliminate the other level of personality. Multiple personalities are actually psychological disorders, and young and healthy people may not be able to cure them, let alone the elderly suffering from Alzheimer's disease in their later years. The male protagonist may have discovered that Min Taizhou is himself, and if he exists, Min Taizhou's personality will continue to exist, and it will always pose a threat to his daughter who often visits him. Choose suicide to solve the problem.
If the explanation is not in place, please give us more advice and exchange. It still feels like a very good, mind-blowing movie.
