high conceptual indifference

If this is an article of reading comprehension, it will be full of points... Because there are too many detailed analyses, I won't go into details. There should be many people who have written it
. Let me give you a few thoughts: a. , there is no bisexual option, you must choose homosexuality/heterosexuality, shoes are not half a size, clothing and work and rest must be exactly the same as others, black and white rules are pervasive and suffocating,
b. People do not fall in love with each other And the only way to stay together is to find the same points, people who are different can't survive,
c. If you can't find a mate in the city, you will be turned into an animal, and if you have feelings for anyone in the jungle, you will be executed. Any point of view or proposition will become a power once it is taken to extremes. Thinking of religion and feminism that have been controversial recently,
d. Resisting a partner in a blind date hotel, or looking for a lover in a forest of loners, human beings are inherently rebellious.
The film as a whole expresses a sense of futuristic sci-fi. The lens tones and characters' costumes are all cool colors such as black, blue, white and gray. The characters' lines are mechanically rigid and seem to have no emotions, but the absurd words spoken in a serious manner create a special kind of black humor. The ideas and concepts are very new, with strong irony, but lack of flexibility. I feel that the film has already printed "I'm going to start mocking here" on the screen. The audience does not have enough space for independent thinking, and the second half of the process is slightly delayed.

    In fact, it may be more interesting to reverse the two paragraphs. It would be more disillusioned to escape from the single jungle and enter the world of two. Xiaoben's fake nosebleed pairing is an insinuation of gay marriage cheating.

    The hotel does not allow single dogs, the city pays attention to matching families, and the extreme couples in the woods (countryside) die together... It's a true portrayal of the world. The narrative and soundtrack are quite retro... Actually, I think a soundtrack with a minimalist impression like "Into the House" should be used.

The Lobster quotes

  • Trainer Waiter - Shooting Range: It's no coincidence that the targets are shaped like single people and not couples.

  • David: [as the Biscuit Woman screams in pain in the distance] What happened?

    Heartless Woman: She jumped from the window from 180. There is blood and biscuits everywhere.

    David: I hope she dies right away.

    David: [he pauses] On second thought, I hope she suffers quite a bit before she dies. I just hope her pathetic screams can't be heard from my room, because I was thinking about having a lie down, and I need peace and quiet. I was playing golf, and the last thing I need is some woman dying slowly and loudly.
