My Watch Book: "Blissful Feast"
Mikel 2022-03-16 08:01:01
When the most primitive desires of human beings are infinitely exaggerated and satisfied, they will eventually lead to disgusting destruction. An example of the latter is The World of the Senses, and a typical example of the former is Blissful Feast. Five elite characters from various fields, stripped of their usual sanctimonious appearances, stuffed food into their stomachs like lunatics, and kept eating, even if they stinked and couldn't stand up. He didn't stop talking, as if he had gone crazy, he only knew how to fill himself up mechanically and then die one by one. Watching such a movie, the audience sometimes feels like an envoy, looking at the common people under their feet with compassion, those people desperately filling their desires without knowing how to restrain, and in the end they are nothing but a stinky mess. God's corpse.

Decent participants, exquisite dishes, and a feast that seems to never end. This is probably the scene of the banquets of ancient Western nobles that have been handed down. It can be said that this is a space-time display of ancient civilization across time. The gradual breakdown begins with the frivolous actions of prostitutes who are regarded as morally corrupt, but even without the interference of these interlopers, the breakdown will start from another source, just as food that is left open will always spoil. . What's more, the direction of the development of the situation is entirely dominated by the original participants, and it is no longer in the hands of the prostitute who caused it. The situation that finally came to the fore was hilarious and surprising, but terrifying on second thought. What fuels all this is not fanaticism, not a momentary desire, but the unconsciousness that arises when all the joys of life have been overdrawn and there is no more stimulation to be found. In the unconscious behavior, you can't experience the change of emotions, and you can't see the abnormality of the scene. The actor seems to be a step element in the whole operation process, and it can only be repeated continuously until he can no longer participate in it.

What kind of feelings do people who insist on eating until they die! How do I feel after watching it twice!

Ugo: Wanting to be Marlon Brando is vanity.

Marcello: You should do a special menu. "A dinner offered by four Burgundian gentlemen to three nice Canterbury whores!"
Philippe: Ah, so they're whores, eh?
Michel: What did you expect?
Philippe: I've got a great menu idea. "The Whore Menu"! A sauté of fat and lean given by four gourmand gourmets, epicures for three young ladies, in twelve courses.
Marcello: That's it.
Philippe: Crayfish à la Mozart on a bed of rice à la Sully, with Sauce Aurora.
Marcello: Not bad.
