For a high-end comedy that reflects the ideology of the times, I have two main thoughts after watching it: one is the inspiration of the play, and the other is the view on the art of comedy.
Let's talk about the drama first. The source of all the suspense, conflict and dramatic tension in this film actually comes from the lie set in the early stage, that is, the audience follows the plot with the attitude of "hanging a breath for the two male protagonists" after learning the truth. So there are many more possibilities for setting jokes. Two fake women joined the women's band, one of them pretended to be a rich man to hook up with beautiful women, and the other used the opportunity of being hooked up by a wretched uncle to befriend a real rich man. As a result, when the truth was finally revealed, both of them gained understanding and unchanging feelings, and ended with the classic "Nobody's perfect" as an explanation and ending. This is how satirical this human society is full of lies. Forgiving understanding. While creating a comic effect, the film also incorporates many iconic ideologies into the design of characters and details, such as money worship, snobbery, hypocrisy, emptiness... The clever thing is that you are deeply influenced by these ideologies I can't hate the character, and I even like it a little. For example, Monroe's character is a high unity of gold worship and cuteness. When people see the opposing qualities of this multifaceted and three-dimensional character, they will naturally seek answers from the environment of the times, and this is one way to lead the characters in the short story to the larger environment.
Speaking of comedy. I used to be a person who rarely watched comedy, because I think the ideological level of comedy is still a little worse than that of tragedy, so when I saw "The greatest art is to bring happiness to people" in "The King of the Circus" How much is it? Some disagree. However, the period of the epidemic is indeed an excellent period for learning and precipitation. While coming into contact with more literary and artistic works, I gradually began to think about a question that had never been thought of before—what else do human beings want beyond appreciating tragedy? In literary works, tragedy ultimately leads to a common theme, nothingness. However, we have learned so much of the nihilistic atmosphere of Haruki Murakami. Do we know that behind the various nihilities depicted in "The Great Gatsby", which Haruki Murakami admires so much, it seems that he has been brainwashed by obsessions. A little fearlessness and true bravery? When we felt like Matthew McConaughey's character in True Detective had the wisdom to see through everything, do we remember how his nihilism was finally reconciled with existentialism in love? As human beings, we may be dying with nihilism, but we need to survive with existentialism, which is why we are always giving all kinds of "meanings" to what we do, and why we need to pursue happiness, Not just excitement and pleasure but true pleasure. As a human being, you can never escape the essence of human beings, which is also doomed that even if you reach a height that can resonate with "Disqualification in the World" or even "The Outsider", you can only use one of you to understand it, and the other yourself will always be Return to the sensory experience and perceptual cognition that happens all the time. I don't know if "rare and confused" has this level of meaning, but this is my current understanding of these four words at the highest level. So to sum up, a person may like to watch vulgar comedies at first, and then start to indulge in lamenting about tragedy, but then it will be a stage where both tragicomedy and tragicomedy are in contact to maintain balance, and the comedy needed at this stage is It will be a relatively high-end comedy, that is, a comedy in the true sense that can give people hope and optimism. Some movies set the binary opposition of despair and hope in the plot to enhance the final hope effect, such as "Interstellar"; while others use tolerance to enhance the comedy effect in the presentation of humor and irony, such as "Passionate". After all, the great thing about comedy that brings joy to people is that it brings people hope, and the importance of hope to people is self-evident.
