I have watched the first, second and third seasons of "Thirteen Reasons Why". The third season was bad and should not be filmed again. If the second season ends, the show will be even better. One or two seasons can be seen together to see the whole story. Hannah commits suicide, stirring up a school storm like a butterfly effect. Everyone affects everyone, everything affects everything, Justin Free photos, Taylor candid shots, Courtney's smears, Alex's list, Jeff's drunk-driving death, Jessica's rape, In the end, Hannah herself was raped. This series of events made up thirteen tapes, and Clay, as a participant and bystander in the story, led the whole story.
The first season of the tape is a combination of fantastic ideas and interludes, which makes the past and present overlap in parallel. The text narration of the tape goes deep into the corners of human nature that are difficult to touch with visual images. However, the narration is restrained and left blank. The delicate relationship between words and languages, the tape unfolds not only Hannah's whole person, but also everyone related to her. It is the lead of the whole play in the past time and space, and Clay's intermittent listening will show The past and the present are two time and space on one person, some things he personally experienced, but most of them don't know very well, and his anger is constantly backlogged as he listens, and it is released in contact with everyone.
But no matter what he can't completely let go, he loves Hannah, and Hannah died, when he finished listening to his tape, he cried like a child, I cried too, Clay's loss of Hannah is a node of depression and pain , is also the warmest and softest node. The emotions of loving someone and losing a lover are surging in Clay's heart at the same time, so that the repressed emotions of the whole drama are released at the end of the whole drama. Is it really released? After Hannah's death, Clay witnessed that the classmates in the tape continued to slander Hannah for the sake of their own reputation and tried to cover up with all kinds of despicable means. When they received the summons, they were still sitting together in Monet's Cafe. Discussing how to lie to protect himself, Alex finally looked at everyone with despair in his eyes, which was not unrelated to his shooting suicide. It can be said that the whole drama has never let the audience feel relieved.
The scene of Hannah cutting her wrists in the bathtub really made me cringe, as if it was cutting myself. I have never seen so many bloody throat cutting and killing moments. Thinking of the college roommate's death by drowning at the seaside, he was an honest and kind person played by the college community, the object of ridicule and use, but he was always rejected when he asked for love. He also wanted to talk to me several times before his death. My life as a classmate and roommate was a mess, too, to the point of being a numb, indifferent bystander. In the end, he died at the pier. The cause of his death was a mystery. Everyone was angry and didn't know who was to blame. Isn't each of us a participant in this silent bullying?
Human-to-human violence in society continues all the time. It can be serious rape, molestation, and violence, or so-called mild indifference, malicious words, and deceit. Junior high and high school are especially at this point of contradiction. After I started working, the conflicts and injuries between people became more complicated and trivial. How many people have not been sexually harassed or molested? My college classmates were raped in high school, and I heard a lot about others, including my own experience of being molested. The psychological damage will not disappear. Have we all been hurt and hurt others? Sometimes I don't dare to look directly at myself and human nature, and feel my conscience to reflect on myself. This film is like a mirror that makes me constantly examine myself. Hannah is each of us, full of sympathy and constant reflection.
Is Hannah's suicide sensitive and vulnerable? It must not be, she faced what she suffered with truth and intuition, and finally thought about the current situation of her own life. On the other hand, when I was in high school at the beginning of high school, I was under the pressure of survival, study, family, system and social collective evaluation. I never knew and understood the value of self and individualism education. I was used to feeling numb and silent. This is a negative and effective way of escaping pain. I am thirty years old now, and I have graduated from a master's degree, but I have not yet established myself fully. This is my sorrow and the sorrow of society. Everyone needs others. It is not that we are not independent enough, but that the social environment and others are the same essential elements of participation on the road of self-knowledge and growth. This play uses Hannah's personal perspective to constantly see the contradictions between individuals and society. Hannah doesn't see hope for others in society, can we wait? She left behind a story, which is regrettable, ends in youth, and is embarrassing.
In the second season, Hannah's mother seeks justice for Hannah and takes the school to court. This plot is logical, which involves a lot of other aspects of Hannah and her classmates, so that Hannah's entire character is more realistic and complete. The second season did not deliberately exaggerate the misery of Hannah, but some of her own gray problems. This kind of portrayal of Hannah is more objective, and the portrayal of several other characters in Baokuo is also more three-dimensional. It seems to touch the realm of Dostoevsky's literature to some extent, but it touches it differently and is not specific and perfect. But the second season is still lacking, since everyone said a lot of Hannah's gray side in court, the first season should be better. Montgomery's various intimidation methods are too adult, and the secret clubhouse of the stadium is like a pub! The second season is a bit playful on the whole. The common problem of this American drama is that the plot is for the plot, which leads to the deviation of the purpose. If the second season revolves around the court proceedings and properly spreads other story lines, the audience will be more focused on thinking, and the director and screenwriter cannot control it. , I always feel that some things deviate from the ability of high school students. So there are some problems in the second season, and the ratings will drop.
It is worth thinking about how much responsibility these people are responsible for Hannah's death? Are any people all good or pure evil? In the end, the court did not convict the school. Bryce's sentence was light, and Bryce was not given a fair punishment. It makes people angry. He is guilty, and it is not an exaggeration to sentence him to five or seven years. The school and others are indeed responsible. Losing the plot design lawsuit here is depressing, but it makes me think deeply. Who is to blame for Hannah's death? Who is responsible? Bryce is guilty, what about the others? Alex took the blame for his attempted suicide, and the others were deeply remorseful. Is it necessary to be rewarded for good and evil? Can we conclude that Hannah is good and most of the others are evil and hateful? If the viewer judges the good and bad of people based on this, then in this stage of life, no one can leave the stage spotlessly, the so-called phenomenon of good and evil will continue to flash in the human world, and each of us will eventually live in our own mistakes. In the midst of sin, is this constant human moral scourge the result we expect? Today, with the prestige of science, should our human behavior and morality remain on traditional morality and ethics? What this play wants is not to judge the good and evil of human nature completely, but to think critically about the individual and society.
Judging from the overall contemporary cultural context and the theme of the play, absolute good and evil do not exist. What is the nature and meaning of human nature, human behavior, and the relationship between people? We cannot use the simple opposite moral standards of good and evil, good and bad to understand and evaluate, "The essence of life is based on the inevitability of illusion, appearance, deceit, and error. Continued and inevitable injustice." "Behind all the appearances of behavior in life, the underlying fundamental driving force is difficult to detect and control." This leads to dilemmas and contradictions in life. From this point of view, Hannah is no different from you and me, so it is impossible to rashly judge the quality of self and others. If not, what method should we use to understand? Is there a way to see human nature beyond good and evil morality? This is a huge and arduous problem that cannot be discussed. I seek inspiration from Schopenhauer's theory of representation of the will, Nietzsche's superhuman philosophy, Tostoevsky's literature, and existentialism.
The significance of "Thirteen Reasons Why" as a work of art is to lead the viewer to explore its essence through the phenomenon of human beings. Art is like a gorgeous magic. Its value is not in its appearance, but what result it determines is whether it leads mankind to a state of deep understanding. Countless sages such as Socrates and Lao Tzu recognized the ignorance and insignificance of human beings, so everything cannot be easily judged to be wise, and so is human nature. Please go along with science, philosophy and art, although life is often painful and unsuccessful...
