Is Killgrave love Jessica?
In fact, I still swayed a bit before reading it, but after reading it all, I am more inclined to control and obey.
But control and obedience are not love. It will never be.
After reading it, the feeling is very complicated. On the one hand, Killgrave, the little boy who was still Kevin at the time, grew up completely in an inhuman condition, and was forced to acquire "superpowers," or a curse. When he said "I need to be careful about my words", I suddenly understood a little bit. When a person is literally responsible for every word he utters, his conscience is indeed too burdensome for him.
On another level, if he can gain the ability to control others, it is not a particularly worthwhile goal for him to rule the world.
At least it's not harder to get than Jessica, whom he couldn't ask for.
Is it possible that the two of them maintain justice together? Have. If Killgrave hadn't been that bastard before and hadn't killed so many people. If Killgrave respected Jessica's self-will from the beginning. If Jessica hadn't been forced to suffer the physical and mental PTSD so severely.
The most responsible aspect of "Jessica Jones" is that even if there is a miserable childhood, a person must pay the price for the mistakes he made. A normal adult really cannot push all the guilt to the unfortunate native family.
So is Killgrave's so-called "promising" difficult to understand? If he wants to, of course he can go to others to fight for power and gain, and he can get it by opening his mouth. But after several ten-hour dreams, he will only be killed by people who fear his abilities and fear, just as he is also living a life of self-protection surrounded by a group of bodyguards, and being known will only let him. The days are more dangerous.
Think carefully about the experience that is completely under the control of others. What can be terrifying? He had to learn to consider words and sentences more carefully to avoid revealing the stuff, and he had to guard against those who knew it. Everyone can open up to him frankly whether it is voluntary or not, but he has to work hard to pretend to be a fully armed person in order to live longer.
It's probably a better choice to kick open the door of a house in a low-key secret and live in it to enjoy life?
Does Killgrave have any difficulties? some. After complaining to his parents of being abandoned, he could only knock on the door of a house and let the other person feed him. I felt very sad again in the absurdity. It is self-evident whether the survival instinct or the weak and never-established conscience and morality prevail. The last thing his mother did before abandoning him was ironing, and when she met him later, half of her face was burned. His parents ran away because of loss of control, but it took many years to understand that the root of the loss of control was his behavior and not himself.
But he was left with only the hatred of the painful experiment and the fear of being left alone, but he forgot that his original intention was to cure him, and that the mental pressure he caused was irresistible and would make everyone fear and escape. He only remembered that he needed to be careful about what he said, but he forgot to hurt more people by his words.
Before the age of ten, there is no way to resist, but after the age of ten, there is no "want to ask". Only Jessica. He was obsessed with her specialness at first, then morbidly yearned for her understanding and company, and in the end he only wanted her to obey.
The essence of many things Killgrave did for Jessica afterwards was that he knew he couldn't control her with his ability. So he tried to bind her will with "love" and threats to the lives of the people around her, turning her into the one harmless to him, "his", and could not tolerate her thoughts of resistance. Knowing that Jessica moved to give up and must kill him and there is no more room for him, he didn't hesitate to kill him. Killgrave stood on the rooftop while instructing his cowardly father to develop a new medicine for him, while secretly vowing to make Jessica kneel down and beg him. What he wanted was submission, obedience, and the once strong and vivid, tenacious and rebellious self-will eventually broke under his control.
It is a kind of win and control. Maybe Killgrave once had the idea of "want to get along with her for life", but that kind of getting along is essentially the same as picking up a doll and taking it home. He can give everything for her if he wants, he doesn't want to just say "Leave." to get rid of it. On the dock, he looked at the helpless Jessica with a bright smiling face, as if he had finally found the one at his disposal in the claw machine.
That is not love.
If you really go to the bottom to find the source, Jessica herself will have a lingering tendency to self-destruct. One thing I really like about the plot is that there are always people who say that you don’t have to carry it alone. This is not your responsibility alone, not because Jessica has such a voluntary obedience that Killgrave spontaneously and does not know how long it will last. All the responsibilities rested on her, asking her to be responsible for Killgrave.
In the final analysis, she is unwilling to forgive herself. Parents and younger brother got into a car accident because of their own temper. Hope killed their parents because Killgrave's rage was not out of self-will. The reason for Killgrave's rage was that Jessica left him when the bus crashed. The reason Jessica left him was that Killgrave said "Take care of her." and Jessica went all out to kill someone.
what. This sentence is really the most rogue logical sentence. If I heard Killgrave's defense, "I didn't tell you to kill, I only told you to take care of her", I would be dead on the spot. Killgrave, who had never learned to take responsibility, dared to say blatantly, "I have never killed anyone." And this sentence is indeed the truth. All people who died because of him committed suicide or homicide. He has never done anything before.
She couldn't blame anyone, she could never forgive herself and she didn't know who to hate more except Killgrave.
There are so many deaths related to her but not in her at all. So from a personal point of view, her choice to live is already a very heroic decision.
Later, everyone blamed Jessica, everyone thought she was the culprit, the source of all disasters and misfortunes. Obviously as long as she obeyed, everything would be resolved, but she insisted on fighting. Too many people died, but not because Jessica wanted to try him through procedural justice, not because she died because she was "indecisive", not because she died simply to save a girl who was in prison.
It's because of Killgrave.
Just because of Killgrave.
The guilt of the victim is a form of power discrimination, which projects the resentment of the perpetrator and the fear of uncertainty about their own safety on a weaker object, rather than the murderer himself.
No one "should" be blamed by everyone after experiencing this inhuman torture. No one should take responsibility other than their own for such terrorist acts. No one should be hunted just because of the pursuit of procedural justice.
Of course Jessica doesn't have to. There was nothing wrong with her desire to resist.
But many people do not understand. Killgrave didn't understand either. His ignorance makes me feel very sad.
It's not hateful, it's not terrible, it's sad.
The essence of the villain is step by step towards the ultimate irreversible tragedy.
He may have been sincere when he met Jessica in the life that he was used to in a smooth and smooth life. Sadly, he didn't know how to get along with people normally. He also regretted the bad consequences of curses on others in a state of rage. He can also realize that he needs to think carefully when he speaks. He knows that his control diminishes with time and distance, so he won't let the person who "stands there forever" really stand there forever.
But this is not enough. The price paid by every normal person to grow into a normal person, the rules that he observes and the respect he learns, even a person who can control his mind cannot bypass it.
His general self-control of charity and more disregard for human life pushed him to the opposite of ordinary people and normal society. And Killgrave, after being pushed to the opposite side, attempting to step back without cost to obtain normal human emotions-to obtain Jessica's love-is destined to be tragic.
