Anemia's dream

Carefully avoiding the story, for fear of touching on the meaning, but unable to hold back my sympathy, this sway confuses me. We can pay attention to some empty symbols: the photo of the fish tank being shaken by the closed door, the machine carried by the driver who talked about the dream, the girl in the toilet looking at herself in the mirror, especially the pair of men and women in deep focus when the psychiatrist spoke, do you imagine , if you let them kiss passionately, and a psychiatrist in the close-up is talking about his inner anxiety, the comical opposite effect will be immediately highlighted, and the intention will flash. But no, the film seems to be giving up construction all the time, and sometimes even deliberately cutting off half of the story, this timidity is so timid that one wonders what the director is unconsciously avoiding. At the same time, dreams, as a means of presenting meaning while concealing the narrator, are frequently used. The invisible participation of psychoanalysis also makes the film more personal, opening a window to appreciation but completely closing the door to interpretation. It may be said that, from the perspective of the Western system, this film belongs to the pedigree of "exploring" existence. The title and Goethe are a guide, and it has an innate weight and an ethical height that seems unreasonable at the moment. God is dead, but God's love is still alive. At this time, who is to tell, who is qualified to tell, and how to tell this love becomes the anxiety of the writers. Just like in this movie, the woman lying on the chair praying, sang two songs about heaven, especially the last time, the man in deep focus looked up at the same time, looking up to heaven, the director couldn't catch it after all In order to escape from compassion, at the same time, the overall lighting of this film is from the window inward, unnatural and alarming, the girl's toilet and the mourning hall, the strong light that penetrates through the window, is just like heaven. Summoning, and the dark room, just means the dark predicament of people. And under this kind of internal pressure, in addition to dreams, exaggerated performance styles, strange costumes and conversations of a fat man and woman, fat women wearing military helmets having sex, etc. , to darken the humor, it actually came from an internal thoracic injury, making the murmur of the lesions in the throat sound like laughter. Perhaps in terms of structure, prose-style and fragment-style works give up the whole, meaning, and preaching. If you are not willing to fall into pure games and jokes, each fragment needs to be meticulously done. This is relatively a reconciliation between species and meaning. At this point, there are only three shots that light up my eyes, the flowers caught in the cracks of the door, the house and the music in the girl's dream, and the repeated copper horns, that metallic, fighter-like sparkle golden snake. Most of the time, the swaying inside the film makes me unable to grasp the feeling that pervades the unintended image, like an apple, drained of moisture, the glossy coat is pleated.
