This director must be a little naughty, and I judge this mainly because of the name of the movie. Do you know the origin of this name? Yes, that's because the character (the book salesman turned director Alfred) wrote a script called Torremolinos 73, but where was the inspiration for that script? Heh, in the hospital where sperm samples are taken in a small room covered with pornographic posters! Alfred is such a hard-hearted man that he even has to look at his wife Carmen's two-inch registration photo! He put Carmen's headshot on a poster, which is an ordinary photo of the Spanish seaside town Torremolinos in 1973. Perhaps the inspiration will hit the artist's mind at the moment of reaching the climax, so Torremolinos 73 is bound to be printed on the poster. in Alfred's mind. By the way, opportunity always favors the prepared, which is absolutely true, know that inspiration doesn't explode at every climax, and Alfred was indulging in Bergman at that time. In worship, he has never left Bergman since he got involved with the movie. His enlightenment teacher used Bergman's famous words to teach him to see the reality of the world through the lens of the camera. He started his understanding of art film from Bergman's "The Seventh Seal", and he read Bergman's biography... oh , we need to pay tribute to the great Bergman, who made a materially rich life for a little book salesman who couldn't pay rent or even a condom, and who made a husband and wife team making a sex education film become The director and star partner of an art film, didn't the director pay tribute to him as the big man who looked down on all beings above everything?
What is the origin of people's demand for art? In the theory of human needs hierarchy, physiology is at the bottom and art is at the top. However, it is not difficult to find from the works of art that most of the art is pornographic. Is it possible to draw Malos' hierarchy of needs theory as snakes end-to-end more reasonable? The Alfreds wouldn't have been able to accept the almost humiliating errand if their lives weren't so embarrassing. Exposing one's most secret life to voyeurism in the name of science in exchange for the needs of survival, it seems that the level of life has improved, and the inner contradictions have become more intense, but isn't that how most people grow in a twisted way? The so-called visible happiness is only the definition of the onlookers, what about the self? It's just inner peace. In fact, Carmen has no intention of becoming a star, she just wants a child of her own, wanting to be a mother is all her motivation to live, the only reason for her madness and tranquility, she allows her husband to make family sex movies for a living Completing the only art film in his life requires her husband to fulfill her ideal of becoming a mother.
I like "Torremolinos 73" better than its Chinese translation "Happy Porn Movie". The original name has more room for expression because it is abstracted into place and time, but the translation is limited because of its specificity.
