In 2008, I reviewed "Guessing the Train" again, which was regarded as "the movie that moved the teenagers the most in 1996, and even made the lonely and helpless part of the movie cry." "Guessing the train" is a game in which idlers make impromptu bets to guess the time and destination of the next train in a place where the train passes by, so as to play time. In the UK, "Guessing the Train" is a controversial film. It describes the garbage-like life of a group of young drug addicts in Edinburgh, Scotland. It uses a calm and satirical tone to truly show how drugs are dissolved, heated, and sucked. Addiction, they have sex, undress, naked, orgasm, violence, robbery, degenerate without any cover up, a very gloomy life! No wonder some people say that the film is "inducing drug abuse"!
The scene shortly after the opening was: Mark’s partner shouted at the side of the silent railway: "Scotland, Scotland, this is the ugliest place in the world." Others laughed at her-this is the postmodern angry youth. , They exiled themselves in a nightmare-like life, and no longer established the spiritual father in any sense!
One of the scenes that impressed me the most: Mark got into the dirtiest toilet in Scotland to fish for his opium. As a result, I saw him enter the deepest and clearest body of water. Of course, it was a virtual lens deliberately transformed by the director, but it reflected a certain kind of strong opposition. It was a deepening of Mark into his heart!
Scene 2: Mark overdose and fell into a coma, and was finally carried to the rescue, using a subjective perspective. As he went through the process of being carried from the corridor to the ambulance and sent to the hospital, the whole process has been in a natural state. Amidst the shaking, the abstract pleasure after taking drugs is too realistically concretized into a psychedelic image of Mark's body sinking into the carpet.
Scene three: Mark is locked in a small room by his parents to detox. The room starts to twist from two directions and stretches endlessly. Diane and Shiba emerge one by one with the face of the dead baby who turns on the top of the wall, (to be honest, It's hard for me to accept that paragraph), the dizziness makes the pain make people feel anxious both physically and psychologically.
"Choose life, choose work, choose occupation, choose family, choose nasty big color TV, choose washing machine, car, laser disc player, choose health, low cholesterol and dental insurance, choose building mortgage, choose your friend, choose suit, casual clothes And luggage, choose installments and three-piece suits, choose to watch boring game shows, and eat snacks while watching...choose your future, choose your life...too many choices, what do you choose, I choose not to choose!”
Finally Mark betrayed his friends, which means that he betrayed the slutty youth life and chose to think about the value of the mediocre and normal majority. He merged into the vague crowd, merged with people without faces, and disappeared, because his shabby youth has come to an end. This is his luck and his sorrow! Is Mark's choice a betrayal and depravity relative to resistance?
"The world is changing, music is changing, and drugs are changing. You can't escape from heroin for too long!" The youth of guessing the train will eventually end. And our youth? How did it end? Are there any more? Are we hesitating to choose? Or escape choice? Each generation of young rebels will eventually become potbellies and a new generation of conservatives. What can we choose? We have no choice but to integrate into this undifferentiated society and lose ourselves!
After I ended my 19-year-old, I began to feel that I was old. With this as the standard flower, my youth had been lost for a long time, but I always felt that I was still stubborn and naive. Or is it transparent and lofty?
It’s been more than half of the Lunar New Year in 2009. Looking at the friends and classmates around me, they are getting married and having children. Time is constantly urging me and reminding me that I’m not young. I seem to be We owe a bunch of debt, last month's bill has come, I choose pressure in the pile of books, turn a blind eye, but the heart knows, Lai can not afford ......
Oh, want to laugh when you laugh heartily; kissing Don't be busy talking when you want to dance; when you want to dance, buy the most suitable pair of shoes...
because no matter how you choose, life should be wasted on the best things!
