The overall impression of watching this film is just like the excitement and excitement at the beginning of the film to appreciate the exquisite and vivid image language of Asian films, and I look forward to a masterpiece of human nature with confidence, and the direction is probably nothing more than the subtleties of human nature. To explore, to show the most charming, humble, absurd and contradictory aspects of human nature or history. But the result is like the male protagonist who sees a sea of delusions at the end, and it ends up being a mirage. Some art films really successfully presented the mirage to the audience, even if it was absurd, it could justify itself in terms of art and philosophy; some showed the disillusionment of the mirage from beginning to end; and after watching this film, I realized that the creator's attempt The mirage passed on to the audience has never actually appeared. No matter how brilliant the video skills are, they cannot cover up the embarrassment of characterization, the fragility and absurdity of motives, and the immutability of the performance system. What is behind these is actually the embarrassment and inferiority of the oriental film art represented by Japan as a pioneer in the face of world art, especially Western independent art films, small plots, anti-plots and artistic solipsism, even in the past After more than 100 years, it seems that we still have low self-esteem and can't wait to set up such a beautiful large-scale closed-door by using objects-level images, language skills, etc. In a drama, the dunes, the male and female protagonists, and the villagers are actually installation art, in order to achieve the freedom that the director and screenwriter understand - confinement, sex, personal - a superficial understanding of society
A basic rule of artistic creation, especially film creation, is that the ordinary can only be explained by transcendence, and the ordinary can be explained by transcendence, but the transcendence cannot be explained by transcendence, and the ordinary can be explained by ordinary. In the end, it is possible to achieve indistinguishable from each other, rather than relying on a few life mottos to make up for the emptiness of characterization and drama.
Without an independent personality, there will be no freedom wherever you go. The director tried to label the heroine and the hero with the freedom of pursuit of social attributes and life attributes, but the final result showed that the heroine was more sexual to the hero. The so-called love and free radio are also more like a deliberately created symbolic value and animal instinct, while for the male protagonist, the characters who should be attached to the value of disillusionment have the opposite effect due to their resistance and despair. . If a director tries to show the relationship between individuals—social and political interactions, relationships between men and women, freedom—and imprisoned relationships, it is almost impossible in the history of world cinema to rely on only two main characters, one supporting role, and one independent scene. Characters and human nature have extremely deep insights, rich character history, and the possibility of complex dimensions and multi-angle interactions [Masquerade], or introducing other scenes [Furious Fang], or turning to commercial drama [Truman], Otherwise, it will only become a tree without roots and water without a source. Of course, from another point of view, the creative psychology and cultural cognition of this kind of fragility, ignorance and ignorance mixed with various Japanese characteristics, weird and even cruel and evil tastes, is also the reason why Japan faced the postwar desolation of human nature in the 1960s and was caught in Eastern and Western cultures. A dazed real projection between giants. This complex collective personality and cultural ecology is like the strange, sinister and morbid atmosphere created by the super close-up of sand, skin, flesh, water droplets and insects repeatedly used in the film. The eastern softness and western logic are in a cramped living situation. And pragmatism, a kind of cold and cruel cruelty, accompanied by extreme hunger for desire and power
