After analyzing "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Nest", the teacher showed me this movie. I don't know if my mind is controlled, free, and freedom is flooded with words, which makes me inevitably think of this when I watch this movie.
Unlike "Flying Over the Madhouse", what this movie makes me feel is how people are so controlled that they can't breathe, want to break free, but have nowhere to escape, desperate to self-depravity, and try to forgive and redeem.
In the story, he who belittled the woman so much, he actually didn’t believe in what he preached at all. He wore a heavy mask and even tried to deceive himself. He plunged himself into his own abyss; the little boy in the story actually knew what he called Erudition is all meaningless knowledge. He doesn’t like answering questions and doesn’t want to break records. But he has to do it because he wants to be praised by his father. I don’t think he is being controlled by his father because he knows it. He knew what he was doing, he was trapped by himself; in the story, the woman who was sexually harassed by her father, in my opinion, she was still Electra, she had sex with a man many years older than her, and could not date others, she hated My own father is also self-loathing and self-depraved, she sinks in the web she has woven...
From my perspective, this is of course a movie about redemption, about self-salvation, and also about self-shackling. Before the ridiculous rain of frogs, I felt so depressed that I couldn't breathe, but gave me sin and punishment, and also gave me salvation and liberation.
