The story of "Boogie Nights" still has too much dark humor, a little absurd, a little ridiculous, but absolutely serious. Anderson is a smart director, and he handles the erotic parts very well and intersperses the film with a lot of character-focused stuff. Eddie, played by Mark Wahlberg, was actually forced to undress on Liangshan by his mother's underestimation, but from shyness to complete liberation, the conflict in the plot plays a huge role. He has no specialties, no talent but has A gigantic dick, earning tips for viewing his dick and masturbating, and of course Eddie could say, "I've been ready since I was born."
Like the movie's title, it's full of psychedelic madness , a large number of long shots, filming process and tidbits, and stop-motion shots enhance its documentary nature, restore the process of AV shooting, and keep the story and characters in balance. Radical shot scheduling conveys a kind of complex thoughts, making the film with a strong sense of rhythm become very impetuous, as if a violent storm has struck, and the characters who are already injured become more confused. The anger and fanaticism that seemed to be on the verge of being triggered were suddenly suppressed by helplessness, forcing everyone to go crazy.
The word respect was put on the table by the director bluntly. This clue runs through the whole film from the beginning to the end of the film. If the film is regarded as the growth history of a male actor, then respect is a one-sided personal behavior. The film's multi-line narrative seeks out their tragic points from different characters and draws closer to the sadness that the film creates in the story. The pulley girl was sexually insinuated by her classmates, Amber lost the right to visit her son, Eddie was beaten for not being able to get an erection while masturbating, Bill's wife had sex with other men in front of him at any time, the black A star couldn't because of his job Get a loan. The director connects these clues to form a complete social chain, and eroticism becomes less important.
The irony must exist. The porn industry was originally humble. The black A-star who failed in the loan could not fulfill his dream of a speaker store, but unexpectedly obtained a sum of money in a robbery. Dirty seems to be destined to be erotic, so the film does not have redemptive elements, but gives them superior confidence in the specific identity of the characters. Sora Aoi said: "I take off my clothes and lie in front of the camera to survive, you are well-dressed in front of the camera. But it's for selfish desire and deceit", it is undeniable that people are selfish, watching AV, scolding actresses, betraying their humanity, they are more worthy of everyone's scolding than prostitutes, it can be seen that this is the director's sympathy The heart is at work.
Absurd stories may need a person who has been absurd to fill. It is well known that Mark Wahlberg was once a bad boy, and the story of the prodigal son will never be difficult for him. The first half is shy, and the middle is crazy, and the second half is It's pain, Wahlberg's Eddie has a shadow of his own, and in the film centered around him, the story is much more full-fledged. Coupled with Julianne Moore's strong support, the film's group scenes are very brilliant, and there is no trace of hypocritical flaws from beginning to end.
"Boogie Nights" is not a typical pornographic film, it just extends its tentacles into the pornographic field. What we see is not a group of male and female actresses who are coquettish in front of the camera. It penetrates into every crevice of this industry. The original sin lies in society, we There is no right to discriminate against them, be more serious, "Boogie Nights" can save pornography with art, as for the vulgar, it refers to those who are self-righteous but nostalgic for pornography.
