In fact, even without Heath Ledger’s sudden and premature death, the clown in this film is also a character who "overwhelms the master", and the "Batman" series has always been the opposite. For example, not many people remember Batman in the first "Batman" Who is the actor, but I firmly remember Nicholson, the actor of the clown. Heath Ledger’s version of the Joker is more dark and cruel. As a character with obvious anti-social personality, he has shown the dark side of the individual to the fullest. At the same time, he is also like a dark mirror, reflecting, reflecting, and furthering the darkness of society. Zoom in and disturb Gotham Town. In the film, the seemingly prosperous and orderly society is actually fragile, and many times people are more accustomed to the bright news and expectations of singing and dancing, but they are unwilling or afraid to face the darkness that already exists. Therefore, the clown appears. , He exposed the darkness of this city without doubt, and also made people who usually appear well-dressed, peaceful and friendly to show the darkness under self-protection in the dark. Everyone is panicked and helpless. They can abandon the rescue of them in order to protect themselves. A hero in the middle; can raise a gun to attack a villain who is trying to explode; he will even act to save himself and slaughter everyone on a ship. You can say that these private thoughts and actions are understandable under instinct, but There are several dark stories in the world that are not caused by the private thoughts and self desires of a few people, so instinct and darkness are often only in the line. And the clown is just a kind of time. He is not wealthy, not good, just wants to destroy, wants to make more people tremble in fear, and wants to force everyone to face the eerie gloom. Such a character is frightening. But with an unforgettable "charm", as many people who have watched the movie said, this role is too deep, he is dark, but it is unforgettable.
Nolan's works often have that gloomy feeling, but in the more commercial "Batman", he still shows a glimmer of hope in the dark story. For example, in the first prequel, he spent a lot of space on Bruce's self-salvation. Finally, he dared to face the dark memories that once caused him to have nightmares and become a hero full of righteousness. And the most human brilliance in this film is undoubtedly the game of human nature between the two ships, each holding the button to let the other blow up. According to the game theory, this situation is very similar to the classic example of two prisoners being interrogated separately. , Often the probability of lose-lose is the greatest. And Nolan’s more ingenious design is that the people in one ship are criminals, the people in the other ship are civilians, and the buttons are in the hands of the police who control the order. At this time, we see the performance of criminals who have been defined as the dark side. It was more helpless calm, while the civilians showed a strong desire to survive and pressed the button that caused the ship on the opposite side to explode. At the same time, the symbols of order on both sides showed indecision. At this time, the civilians also tried to vote for all. One of the criminals on the opposite side made a decision with the glory of humanity and threw the button out of the ship. The civilians finally made the decision to give up harming others. The situation in the room shows the fragility of order, showing that the so-called transition between darkness and light is so microseconds. The prisoners labeled as dark have to face their own crimes, while one of the tall and burly criminals confronts them directly. At this gloomy moment that tested humanity, he made the brightest choice and gave the clown the most powerful counterattack.
The popularity of "The Dark Knight" in 2008 is definitely the result of a combination of many factors, and the dark temperament created by director Nolan and many actors is the point that attracts me the most. We all need the courage to face the darkness directly. In addition to relaxing, understanding the darkness that is unfolding or about to unfold may make people obstruct, but it is a way to make our hearts strong. Just as some people wonder why some literary works are obsessed with the discussion of death. When talking about how pathological they are, I would say that "life" and "death" are actually the most universal state of mankind, and they are more eulogized than people's life. Love is universal, and being able to face the ultimate fate of this person, think about it, and explore it, I think it is a kind of calm normality rather than a pathological state. In the same way, I once again moved out my hypocritical words, "A person dares to face the darkness directly because his heart is full of sunshine". Face it and be alert to it will make people more calm. For example, when the stock market is soaring and the economy is booming, you You can face the recession and depression that will inevitably follow under the laws of the economy, instead of screaming at someone mentioning it, then facing the economic dark period that is said to be a once-in-a-century period. Economic interests, how to deal with former partners and other issues that may have darker results), we may be more calm and calm.
