Among the big wave of Oscars in 2015, there are two most anticipated, "Carol" and "Room". "The Room" really did not disappoint me. The movie is divided into two parts, escape the room and face the world. In the early part of escaping the room, the narrative of the heroine and Jack's life in the room is the center. Jack's childhood memories will also be a foreshadowing. Through this part, we can see the different states of the bondage of the mother and child. The mother was deceived, abused, and detained in the room from a free identity; Jack was the product of her mother's abuse, and at the same time Jack was also a combination of purity and filth. Jack was born and grew up in this room that is the world to him, so he has no anger or resentment. In the early part of the room, I was surprised that the director did not shoot the darkness and depression, on the contrary, because of Jack’s curiosity, he let me know how a person views the living space and the world in a state of ignorance.
In Jack's worldview, there are two kinds of truth and falsity. The truth is everything in the room, and the falsity is on the TV. The old Jack is somewhere in between. Jack didn't know or started to be curious about the world, it started with curious old Jack. He touched old Jack just to see this third human being. The mother's state is to protect Jack, but to struggle and tolerate her own life. The greater tension and focus of the film is the second half of facing the world.
Starting from when Jack rolled out of the carpet, the sky quietly spread endlessly, the trees stood so tall, everything was too empty and too big, for a child, the whole imagination and sense of security, all All external senses are infinitely subverted.
In this process, Jack also demonstrated his sense of security for different groups of men and women, such as being able to communicate better with female police officers. The real test, which seems to be the test of returning to the normal world, is to the mother the intensely retracted discomfort after being saved. I understand this kind of grumpiness and ranting as the helpless frustration and implosion of nowhere in the old scenes of the fracture behind my dirty pollution, so I questioned and ranted my mother, always always Teach yourself to be a kind person, only then will you be deceived with lies. This is her vent, and it is also the torture of humanity that she has regretted countless times. But when her mother asked her back, is her life the only life destroyed? At this time, I noticed that in this incident, no one is complete. Her parents are divorced and her father is far away from here are all silent explanations.
At the same time, I want to say that the director used the mother's perseverance and found a kind and friendly wife to live in their former home, which shows a mother's resilience and determination to give up and protect her child.
For example: the family reunited in the hospital, as a grandmother to thank Jack, saying thank him for saving his daughter. The grandfather's inability to talk to Jack also illustrates the different behaviors of men and women in the face of injury. We cannot criticize our grandfather easily. After all, old Jack is Jack's biological father, that is, the man who hurt his daughter. As a father, it is difficult to tolerate Jack who carries evil and stains. The tipping point of the movie that really makes people think about is the interview with reporters, asking how the hostess will explain his father’s problems with Jack in the future, and asking her when she had the opportunity to send him away when Jack was born, so that Jack has one. In a happy normal childhood, he was free, why didn't he do that? That night, the heroine was sick and passed out, and then began to separate from Jack, thus entering the self-independent healing of the two.
At this time, Jack himself is new, even though his existence is a permanent proof of this dirty past for his mother, a combination of angels and demons, but Jack does not mean our life itself What? Regarding the past, we all want to cleanse, and all of us can't bear to look back, but everyone can't easily forgive and understand. For the mother, watching the youthful and pure life end in the 17-year-old photo, end in all the old things in the room that could not be continued after returning, end in the scars of the family that cannot go back. How to face Jack again, how to face mother, how to regain life, where do you start? When the hostess and Jack said that I am not a good mother, Jack replied, but you are the mother. Perhaps this is the most critical answer in the film, and that is love. This is also the best answer to reporters. Childhood may be important, memory may be important, but family, love is not more important, we, you and me are the subconscious answer, and why there is no answer to send it away. In the movie, Jack and the hostess later went back to see the room. I myself subconsciously thought at the time that for the heroine, this is a torture and also the best way to get rid of it. Sure enough, the hostess was standing at the door of the room. In fact, she was still scared subconsciously. This is like everyone who has been bitten by a snake for ten years and feared the ropes. When being immersed in the scene, they will also worry that the room will be locked again. .
However, for Jack, the room is a childhood, a place where he and his mother will always be together, and the room is a place where no one can walk around. So Jack will kindly say goodbye to the table and chair, and will say that because the door is not closed, the room is not a room and has become smaller. But when the hostess asked him if he needed to close the door, Jack said no, and at the same time, Jack reminded his mother to say goodbye to the room.
Perhaps at this time, the director warmly reminded everyone, you see, the past, which is almost unforgivable and unbearable, will gradually become lighter and lighter. We might as well take up the courage to interact with the past, ourselves, and all our unwillingness. Say goodbye to everything you accept, don't worry about it, don't have to hate anymore. In the movie, there are many confessions in Jack's tone, which mainly explain that I have different feelings about the two worlds, and are also words to deal with growth and sudden changes.
The original world was very small, and the original sound was very quiet. Originally, it was only my mother and me. The original room had no bacteria. The original room only had reality and TV. Now the world is very big, with trees and rooms, sound and time never stop, crowds Coming and going, bacteria and temperature also change at any time, and I also need to be in contact with other people. This is the new world. There is an understanding and narration of freedom, the meaning of family and family, the power of love, and the process of injury and healing in every growing life. There are also the principles of life and the courage to face the world that everyone must understand. . We are not an isolated island. We need love, freedom, space, and an infinite world of imagination!
