- "I'm Phil Diana"
In such repeated dialogue, Piero ran his search with the rigidity of his face and the nervousness under his thick lips. The camera pulls away in anticipation of the voices telling a fairy tale, and Piero's boredom overflows from a warm-faced middle-class family, from the bathtub to the restrained furnishings. And Marian appeared destined to appear, a hidden emotional flow commemorated N years ago as a way of life.
Rebel, rebel
departure
naturally great. Piero resists with a morning, blood, comic books and an old face. He and Marion set off firmly. Everything is fresh. A revolutionary romance like "the sun shines in the sky, the flowers smile at me", even the violence is quite clean because of the distance and the brightness of the picture. Things gain texture by being clean, and Piero acts like a conspiracy. The conspirator's mind almost drowns out the pleasure of the speed of action.
The sea, the sea
poetry
faces the sea, and spring flowers bloom. Like the clear sea of The Big Blue. Piero was a poet at this time, and he murmured: Fishing, hunting...the part of living by the sea is beautiful on this day. Can't say too much about beauty, but, this beauty is set, Piero is portrayed over and over again when he tells stories in the bathtub, it's disillusionment, yes, soon to see this aura disillusioned in in endless boredom. It is exactly what Benjamin said: the spiritual atmosphere based on organic society only touches a little aura when it is about to disappear. The syntax I was looking for was the movement of aura. The voice line spreads the cracks between the color blocks with verses: death, life, persistence, betrayal... all shattered, and only poetry remains.
weary, weary of
betrayal
Sound logic. Piero didn't know what he was looking for (Is it an empty way of questioning? - What is life), or what he had already reached and disappeared into the jungle of desire, just like love - the greatest myth . The result is the same, boredom. Boredom is a precursor to narcissism/vileness and masochism/sadism. Boredom or depression is an image that pervades the massive psychological feelings of the moment. In this way, Piero experienced betrayal and saved his life in a conspiracy that was not at all a conspiracy. Marian became illusory, even more unreal than the exiled princess of XX small country beside her. Because some things are never real.
Youth, youth
destruction
Piero used to look in the mirror. Had to talk about his face again. The crazy face of this middle-aged man. What is he thinking in the mirror? Then the mirror no longer appeared, because then he was youth, he was in desire. "The curve of your waist, the curve of your waist" Piero sang in the woods. Youth and life are always a major theme, and it faces the authenticity of the faces in the mirror. Youth and truth confront each other on the way of searching, and the result is destruction, that is, there is no result. Piero's way of searching has no result.
I realize that this is too male-centric, but the character of Marianne given in the film is subordinate at all, she exists in the looming tension, it seems that she is leading Piero to the point of no return. Is that her? It was actually Piero himself, his desire and his body. Instead, the film achieves a romantic effect, and Marianne is Piero's mystical center, symbolizing all his unattainability. The woman's moral flaws are of little consequence. She is a body, floating around, in self-imposed exile.
Let's look at Piero's last glimpse of the sunset, the
sea, the rocks, and everything at the end of the film
, except that Piero has dynamite wrapped around his head, which is too satisfying. Although death adds nothing, it adds a way to die.
