A Probe into the Significance and Techniques of "Desperate Island"

☆Desert Island Cry can be counted as a situational drama, which is a feature of Polanski's movies. Polanski's films can be divided into three categories: ①Situational drama (although it is a movie from the scene, it is dialogue and dramatic. It's very strong) Sometimes the development of the story is the main focus in the situational drama, like "Dead Island Cry", and sometimes the character's heart is the main focus, such as "Reaper and the Girl" and "Sword in the Water". These are the most "Polanski-style" ②story plays, represented by "Chinatown", "The Pianist", and "Tess". I personally think that "The Pianist" is not well shot, and it may be based on Polanski's experience. Too close, the whole work becomes the same description as "1942"-describing the suffering, but there is too little thinking. ③Thriller is neither a ghost film nor a suspense film, but a horror. Taking "Rosemary's Baby" "The Ninth Door" is indeed quite horrible, but these movies are less thoughtful. After watching it, it is like watching fireworks, and there is nothing left when it explodes. To break the news, you will often see the same heroine in Polanski’s movies. That is his new wife. Polanski’s parents seem to have died in a concentration camp. Later, he developed in the United States. During the process, his wife and son were murdered by a cult, and he later married this new wife. This encyclopedia can be searched.
☆How to read Desert Island Horror: First of all, this movie is similar to the interpretation of "Black Mirror". "Black Mirror" often provides us with two situations: daily situations & new human situations brought about by technology . When reading "Black Mirror", readers explain in two opposite directions. Taking "Your Whole History" as an example, readers can both study the negative impact of the butterfly effect on human life brought about by memory intelligence. , You can also think about human nature in reverse. Because is nothing more than providing a frame of reference, things that were originally meaningless in real life (such as memory problems) become meaningful in a new fictional context, which also makes readers rethink. Many problems in real life, many problems therefore become meaningful. "Dead Island Cry" is also a contrast between two kinds of life to a certain extent-civilization (the life people are used to) & primitive life. The desert island provides a reshuffle of human nature, allowing people to re-examine our civilization. What it means, we can do two interpretations: ①Analyze the current rules of the game on the desert island ②Analyze our daily life.
☆Ethics:
[Abstract contrast:] Jack is a typical "civilized" person, this is the interdependence between people formed by the division of labor after people get rid of the self-sufficient economy, and Jack is at the upper middle level of the division of labor. A middle and upper class, he can lead a few sisters to charter a yacht, which shows that he is still very rich. Manuel is considered a "barbarian", in Jack's words-there is only one "indigenous" on the island. Jack didn't like Manuel, because Manuel violated a taboo of civilized society or gentlemen-hitting women. In the gentry society, women are used to kneel, to hurt, not to fight. (Remember when reading the Vampire Diaries, a female vampire told Damon: Women are for fun, not for food!)
From the perspective of travel, both Jack and Jenny regard travel as a pastime of "daily life". In other words, it constitutes a part of daily life, and it can even be said to be the opposite of daily life. It is done to make daily life interesting. People travel when they are bored, and tourist destinations actually constitute a beautiful place to escape from and live now. But for Manuel, it didn't matter. Therefore, the living conditions of Jack, Jenny and Manuel on the island are different. Jack and Jenny must have escaped from the island because they want to return to civilization. Although they hate it, the rules of the game are familiar to them, but This is not necessarily true for Manuel. He can live here very comfortably, so I didn’t figure out why Manuel saved Jack. I believe that many men feel that saving Jack is a mistake like me. The "no" in their human nature "Patience" led to his death by the opponent. Although the deserted island is barren, it is an undeveloped place. This place can also be regarded as the most beautiful paradise. There are women on the island, and they just do what they want, and there is no interference. If people say It’s hard to be here. I really can’t stand it. Usually my privacy is discovered for no reason. I’m always under the supervision of the Internet, my hometown, the government, and the school. I just do what I want in this place. The premise is that you will never return to your previous life, and the desert island gave us this hint.
After entering this island, several game rules of this stage game are: Jenny is Jack's wife, and all three of them must survive. Manuel is primitive "sex" to Jenny. Love cannot be talked about here. When there is only one woman in the world, there is no need to talk about love anymore. Morality is to the third person, to the outside, and to be exclusive. . If there are only two people on the island, sex is not of moral significance, but if there is a woman around us who has a lot of "things" with men around us all day long, then we will call this woman "immoral", "Don't understand shame." And sex itself is as natural as eating and sleeping, and has no moral meaning. But Jack's arrival changed everything.
And Jack's advantage over Manuel is: Jenny is his wife, which involves the issue of "sex" attribution. In fact, it deprived M of Jenny's sexual rights. Jenny's purpose is only to live and go out, after all, Jenny is not here. Jenny actually has two men to entertain, but the men only get half a woman. Here is the inequality between men and women in the division of "sex." For Jack, it is totally unacceptable, because in the previous society, this woman belonged to him completely, but here, when it is difficult for everyone to survive, when sex no longer has a moral meaning, but only a primitive survival meaning , The purpose of sex is exposed, that is, possessive pleasure, possessing a woman is like possessing food. Of course, the consequence of sex is to reproduce offspring (the pre-condom era). This is not the purpose of sex. Sex is pursued for entertainment. Human nature, like animal attributes, pursues satisfaction and all kinds of satisfaction. You are well-dressed in a large classroom that serves as a teacher, but when you are thrown to the desert island and you know that you may never get out, you don’t care about the "moral law in my heart" that Kant pursues all his life. Morality is for others to see. At the same time, the large "circular open-view prison" under surveillance by others, everyone looks at each other. (Sometimes the pleasure of cheating is also here. It is not simply the pleasure of enjoying the body, but the excitement that can be seen by others) The wife of "others" is always good, and the reason why others add quotation marks is because sex is attribution Yes, I think that love, sex, etc. are too related to private ownership of property. Everything is to maintain social stability, and then we don't know why modern values ​​are formed.
