above quote comes from “Private Life and Women’s Literature” in “The Silent Majority”. Book review of "Life". This feeling is the same as I watched similar movies like "Mulholland Road" and "Deadly id". I feel puzzled because of this. Why do many people like to watch such movies? Do you like to listen to all kinds of crazy things seriously?
After my understanding, I guess it can be explained like this. The most important thing is that the film is very famous. David Lynch is very awesome, so many people watch it and applaud it. Secondly, I mentioned a theory in the social psychology class I took, saying that in general, people will gradually like what he has put in a lot of hard work. Based on this, I guess that there is a reason why this film has grown up to two and a half hours. After watching it, many people subconsciously have to like it for their own time and dig out many perverted details. To be good is the fundamental purpose. Otherwise, a nightmare can be expressed in a few sentences, and no amount of psychoanalytic significance is worth more than 2 hours. Like Nicole's performance in "Open Eyes" for a few minutes, a nightmare that is sinful, sad and suggestive is activated, and such a nightmare can become the finishing touch in the movie.
In a word, after watching this film, what left me is extremely depressed. At least I, as a viewer, just like Wang Xiaobo said, I absolutely don't like being serious and listening to crazy talk and listening to dream talk.
