I basically disagree with the views in this article, except that everyone agrees with the "mask personality".
This "madness" is outside the "normal society"-this is the first place I strongly oppose. Isn't this madness just the revelation and amplification behind the so-called mask of normal society, the truth of normal society? How to talk outside the normal society? This noble separation of the so-called normal society is very Nazi.
Second, the distinction between clown violence and mass violence is problematic. The movie only reveals the heart of the clown, not the heart of the crowd. How do you know that the crowd is different from the clown? The masses are one of the majority? Abstracting the masses as a symbol and giving a single personality is violence. The clown personality mask that symbolizes violence and resistance, and the life experience and psychology of each clown behind the mask cannot be completely singularized.
Third, although the performance of the clown has had an impact on protests around the world. But to reverse the connection between the film that took several years to produce and the current reality, the cause and effect are reversed and simplified.
Replenish:
At the beginning of the movie, the clown puts on makeup and goes to the street to work. The billboard was snatched by a gang of hooligans. ——This shows the evil of human nature, not class hatred.
In the film, the polarization between the rich and the poor and the psychological processes formed in the survival of the human society and family are intertwined.
The key to several psychological outbursts: the breakdown of the observant performance relationship between mother and son. The mother's treatment of clowns from physical violence to hidden violence in life control has something to do with the gap between the rich and the poor behind the mother's narcissistic personality, but it is not the only relationship. And the actual control of a mother's life (the kind of fragile and artificial mother's behavior and voice are too expressive!) is violence in violence, destroying the core of a person's trust in the world.
The daily ridicule of colleagues in the troupe is another form of neglected violence. The relationship between people is very cruel and cruel. Although the clown was unemployed, the dwarf and his colleagues who had laughed at the clown expressed kindness, but the clown could not escape the old account when the accumulated and enduring hatred broke out. Only the kind dwarf is immune from revenge.
Individual psychology and collective psychology have a convergence, and there is a side that needs to be represented and symbolized; but they are not equal.
The two levels in the film, the fragmentation of people in the family society in modern life, the hurting relationship and the structural violence, the two cannot be equal, they are mutually related and different. This is the more profound aspect of this movie. This situation is a common phenomenon in different countries and systems, especially in places where history has never been faced and the collective trauma will never be repaired.
The expression and symbolism of collective consciousness and violence in the film appear to be single and powerless. This is the focus of many criticisms. This point can be discussed more.
