Solution to a problem
when the well-off saw his masterpiece anger Azeri straight kick scooter, his excited jumping on the bed, with his head against the ceiling, as if that is a reincarnation of the Third Prince Rebels. As a symbol of rebelliousness, the title uses the signature given to Li's mother by the fairy in the temple, and the well-off is the rebirth of Nezha. In real life, there also happens to be a father-son disagreement, youth disharmony and other phenomena that coincide with this label. The movie does not explain the past of Xiaokang. He is like a semi-vacuum person who has no friends other than family, wandering in the crowded streets of Taipei, without words, and life has no purpose. While suppressing his emotions and being indifferent to his father, he was envious of Azer's life and pursued the desires of Azer's people. For him, Nezha is the possession of his temperament. The moped replaced the hot wheel, the compass replaced the hot gun, and he patrolled and rebelled in this city. Quietly rebelled against his father with silence, and reminded himself of his existence with destruction. If the Nezha in the mythology made a riot in the Dragon Palace and turned the world upside down with heavy rain, the reincarnation of Nezha here is a silent inversion of love and self-deception. As Cui Zien said, "Xiaokang's disobedience is not only against the patriarchy, but also against the ancient and traditional 'male': in the secret inner world, he loves his own homosexuality. 'Objective' man , is the subversion of the male standard."
Rootless water
Water has no roots, and rain never touches the soil. Starting from this film, Cai Mingliang used water to wash everything in the world, explaining the changes and vicissitudes of the world with water. The world is originally made of water. Noah found land after seven days and seven nights. Human beings themselves are unknowable and mysterious. What's more, Taiwan, which has been surrounded by water since Zhou Dynasty, feels helpless like a small boat that keeps swaying in the water, and even the residents of those islands have a sense of no belonging. The film first filtered out the background identities of A Ze, A Gui, and A Bin, and let them steal in the rain and have sex on a rainy night. The humid air in Taipei is filled with youthful doubts, and today's happiness is built on the ignorance of tomorrow.
Water is also a symbol of a state of life. Li's mother poured water into the dishes in an attempt for her son to pass the exam and get out of the "magic way"; the waste water in Aze's house was pouring out of the gutter, and there was still sex and masturbation there. The nihilistic attitude of completely disregarding the surrounding environment showed the confusion of life. Finally, he wanted to block it, but it was useless. Where could the water go back? Where can he and Agui go back? It turned out that they were still trapped in a vast ocean. Although they no longer had the homesickness of their fathers, and the movie was nothing like Hou Xiaoxian and Yang Dechang, they missed their homeland, but the postmodern city is still like water without roots. Loss of memory and orientation. There is no past, no future, everything stagnates in that embrace, Abin smiled.
The clues of the film and the film of the lens
are being pursued from beginning to end. The two clues are intertwined at the street sign "Zhonghua Road No. 2", where Xiaokang and Aze meet. As a result, jealousy and secret love began, and the two clues began to blend together. Then there is the non-stop tracking, Aze is in the dark, his actions seem to be observed by the third eye, but there is no such subjective well-off scene in the movie at all, and I have to admire the director's ingenious handling of this. The role of father connects the relationship between the two characters in time and space, and it seems that everything cannot escape the care of fate. At the same time, the movie did not make these two clues blend together. After passing it, it was over. Later, the two began to separate again and began to have their own lives. Maybe "Long Live Love" is in the same room. Let's start.
