Watching "The Pilot's Wife" last night, I always knew that Rohmer films were spoiler-free.
Although the title of the film is the pilot's wife, the real wife does not appear in the film. She seems to be absent, but she is a center, the object that is misunderstood by the male protagonist, the object that is envied by the female protagonist, and the object finally chosen by the pilot.
Looking at Rohmer can never sum up the syllogism, the conflict, the climax and the ending are unpredictable. For some people, it is full of anticipation, and for others, it is a sense of loss of control. Just like the heroine in the Moral Story series, it will bring a sense of discomfort that the worldview is being tapped.
Is the heroine a "good" person? Can moral good and bad be judged by cross-sectional speech? Because in the first half of the film, we all know that many of the female protagonist's complaints are very easy to be "on the line" in terms of value. It is easy for most people to use their own values to judge the heroine as "not so good". The male protagonist and the girls he met seem to be relatively positive. But as the film develops, we see that the heroine is more sincere from beginning to end. She does not lie or violate others, she is just trying to defend herself. The male protagonist's jealousy and lies show his strong sense of insecurity in the second half. It was he who projected his insecurities onto the heroine in the name of love. It is the male protagonist who has a high desire to dominate, and he is trying to prove that he is the one who has the right to choose. And the girl I met was confirmed by the kiss at the end. She is an interesting liar, but is lying absolutely bad? Who can give a judgment?
The hostess said: I never thought about living together. She said it clearly to the male protagonist, this is her clear expression. But the male protagonist's performance is obviously not listening. This is an example of reality. The reality is that most people can't hear what other people are saying, especially in relationships. Everyone is trapped in their own world.
Everyone can only hear what they want to hear. This is absolute loneliness. absolute self-existence. We are responsible for our own world. Even in the closest partnership, we can only be responsible for ourselves. The male protagonist needs to take responsibility for his own insecurities.
Although the incident of following and co-following may seem bizarre, it is very real. How many of you have not peeked at your ex-boyfriend's Weibo? It's not uncommon in the internet world to share your secrets with strangers. Just like Dr. Li Wenliang's Weibo.
Everyone lives in loneliness, looking for driftwood in loneliness, and many times strangers become safe driftwood. Because to strangers, we are just a person, not a label under the framework of work, character, family, class. We can be "de-stereotyped" by not having impressions and become human beings. This is the strange charm. It seems abnormal, but it is true. This is the theme of Rohmer's film.
A clear and clear existence is a beautiful desire of human beings. But the reality is chaotic, confused and hesitant, and people can only walk slowly and hard to themselves in the fog of self. If people are willing to open their eyes and realize such a not-so-lovely reality, we can also treat other human beings in the world as human beings.
