The ending of "The Tuner" is so capricious

I just finished reading the tuner, and I wrote down my feelings while the memory is still deep.

The comprehensive feeling after watching it gives me the feeling of a roller coaster-like excitement.

The following content contains a lot of spoilers, please skip it if you haven't watched it yet.

To be honest, the opening scene is very necessary. It describes the male protagonist as a pianist. He carefully pretends to be blind. With Sophie, the daughter of the tavern owner, a free and well-paid job. It's a pity that the plot description is not very attractive, which makes me think I have seen the wrong movie.

The male protagonist thought that everything was fine until he received an invitation from an old musician to prepare a birthday surprise for his wife. He continued singing and dancing in front of him, and the cheerful tone had a 180° reversal.

As the villain, Simi has established her character from the moment the drama begins: selfish, indifferent, and a showgirl.

The plot leaves the audience the first hidden point: who killed the old musician, his wife Simi, or his wife's mistress Mahendra?

When the male protagonist witnessed the old musician's video and then inserted everything that happened before Akash came, but the camera shot from the old musician's lie about his wedding anniversary on a business trip to the moment when he rushed home and broke his wife's derailment and got the pistol. After that, the plot returned to its normal sequence.

At this time, the male protagonist fell into deep consternation, and continued to pretend to be his original character and continue to play the piano. Some people will ask, the male protagonist can take the opportunity to fight back and then flee the scene to call the police, why doesn't he do this?

This point needs to be traced back to the setting of the male protagonist in a French micro-film that was earlier in this film. The male protagonist is cowardly by nature. And the second point is that because of the role he played, he was used to it and his only thought was to go to London to make money and continue to expand his pianist career, and he did not want to be involved in this.

In this section, I can already realize that the male protagonist and the biggest villain Simi, the wife of the old musician, have one thing in common: selfishness.

The third point is that he has seen an old musician. He is fat, and it is not that his wife can easily bring down his wife. This is because the male protagonist's cautious behavior drives him to dare not act rashly, because his role has not been exposed. , he told himself he had to keep it up, it was the safest for his own personal safety.

It turns out that he lied to go to the toilet to prove this point, a man stronger than Simi (Simi's lover) is hiding inside, and he has a gun in his hand, as long as the male protagonist shows his power, he can immediately kill one of them. Shot to death. In the end, it was his wise choice that saved the hero's life, allowing him to deceive Simi's lover and escape the catastrophe.

After watching the whole process of Simi and his lover cleaning up the murder scene, and continuing to forge the time when the old musician came back to the old musician and was about to leave, the male protagonist did not take the initiative to participate in it, and continued to watch the changes until Simi asked him to leave.

But the male protagonist, who had just relaxed his nerves, made an irrational but reasonable move—going to the police station to report the crime.

According to common sense, even if you don't maintain your role at this stage, you can solve a catastrophic murder case in one fell swoop.

So the question is, why did he suddenly have the courage to report his cautious actions earlier?

Isn't he cowardly? In doing so, he will voluntarily throw himself into this chaotic vortex.

No clear explanation is given throughout the article, only inferences are made.

One: When he meets Simi's lover and is armed with a pistol, he realizes that he is likely to be silenced, whether his identity is revealed or not.

Second: If this matter has not been resolved, it will make him uneasy and affect his performance.

However, the goose is crazy, and Simi's lover is actually the chief of the police station! His actions directly aroused suspicion and led to the exposure of his residence. In the end, he used all his acting skills to deceive the other party and save his life.

The plot comes to the funeral of the old musician. Simi and her lover use tricks to fake the old musician's suicide. Simi is responsible for playing a heartbroken widow and wins the sympathy of public opinion.

So what about the male protagonist, has he escaped?

It's a pity that his move to the police station has already alarmed Simi and her lover, and used this to pull him into his field of vision to monitor him. At this time, the male protagonist met Simi's daughter and came to participate in the middle. Funeral - Simi's neighbor, the old principal, told the police at the scene that he was a witness, paving the way for the next episode.

Then the male protagonist was dragged to the police station again to record a confession. The confession he had to sign was full of Simi's lies. He just opened his mouth and said it was the truth, but suddenly the male protagonist suddenly turned his face and stood up to point out that the police chief and Simi were the real culprits. , but everything was fine afterward, and he also signed.

This is actually implying that the male protagonist had the urge to resist, but in the end he only stayed in the imagination, describing the anxiety of desperately wanting to get out of this vortex.

Then he ended his performance in the pub ahead of schedule, left silently and went to the scene of the crime again alone. The plot here is not clearly explained (may be a problem of space, and it is left to the audience to infer).

Then there are two possibilities: one is that he knew that the paper could not contain the fire, and that his pretending to be blind would be exposed one day, so he negotiated with Simi in advance, indicating that he would not interfere in this matter, hoping to let him go. .

The second is that he heard what the old principal said at the funeral. He came here to find her completely, so the murder case in her identity will soon come to an end.

It's a pity that he made the wrong wishful thinking and underestimated Simi's ruthlessness. His innocence set a death flag for himself.

When she first arrived, she saw Simi pushing the old principal downstairs, causing her to die on the spot. She was able to kill a good friend who had a very good relationship and had been with her for many years. This scene suddenly stunned the male protagonist, but immediately pretended to see nothing.

The death of the only eyewitness has dragged the male protagonist, who had a glimmer of hope, into the abyss again.

Simi is not stupid. After so many things, he already doubted whether the male protagonist is a real blind man, so he took the opportunity to go to the male protagonist's apartment, gave him a tribute of medicine, and even scared him in front of him. Drugs, no matter which step, as long as the male protagonist refuses, his disguised identity will be self-defeating, and there will be a dead end.

Although he avoided her temptation, and even took the opportunity to overturn the coffee, he was unfortunately defeated when Simi pointed a gun at him. Although he stressed that he would not expose Simi, the tribute he ate at the beginning came back to his senses. It's too late.

At this time, Simi knew that his hands were full of blood, and that he did not want to kill anymore, so he temporarily went online to find a way to blind the male protagonist, so that the confession signed by the male protagonist at that time would come true. untie.

At first, I thought Simi was going to poison the male lead, but when I saw Sophie suddenly came to visit later, and was exposed by the troublesome kid downstairs, I went up to question him in anger (after all Have a skin-to-skin relationship), Simi's disguised scene not only drove Sophie away, but also made Sophie completely give up on the male protagonist, preventing future troubles.

But when Simi went back to report to her lover, she was angrily complained that he had to be killed. In the end, she personally went out and attacked in the middle of the night to kill the male lead. Unfortunately, not only was she injured but also the male lead was let go.

There will be a doubt in the plot here, why is the really blind male protagonist so familiar with the road?

At the beginning of the movie, the male protagonist often came here before he became blind, and met the eldest sister who sold lottery tickets and Moxie who drove the tuk-tuk.

The male protagonist was so anxious that he slammed his head into the lamp post and fainted. He was discovered by the team of siblings and sent to the clinic.

Finally met a good person, and want to start revenge?

This is a common-sense plot, but unfortunately, the tone of this movie will go all the way to black, which is very depressing.

At first, the male protagonist asked the doctor if he could regain his sight, and he got a positive return. He stayed here to recuperate, and got a short respite. The doctor here is simply deceiving the male protagonist. His ultimate goal is to take the male protagonist's two kidneys and sell them to the black market for profit. The two brothers and sisters are just helpers, and their fundamental purpose is not to save people.

During the whole process, when the male protagonist's resistance was suppressed and everything was about to be played, the male protagonist suddenly revealed that he could give 10 million, and accurately described the appearance characteristics and even preferences of the two siblings in a blind state. The eldest sister stopped him just before the doctor was about to use the knife, and suddenly claimed that the male protagonist was the reincarnation of Shiva (an ancient Indian god with eyes to the sky), and believed the male protagonist's words.

When the male protagonist woke up again, he reached an agreement with these people who almost killed him, and temporarily formed an alliance. These people are for money, and the male protagonist is for the treatment of his eyes.

Then a plan was made. The male protagonist visited Simi's house when she was not at home. It was Simi's daughter who opened the door for her. All of this made Simi feel astonished when she saw this scene. At this time, Simi had already decided In order to join hands with her lover to kill the male protagonist.

It is a pity that Simi has fallen into the trap of the male protagonist. Although Simi wants these people to go against the water, it is a pity that the male protagonist has been vaccinated in advance, which is completely ineffective.

Use Simi's phone to call her lover's wife, claiming to be a private investigator, and exposing her husband's derailment in one word, and blackmailing her 10 million, and then there is a scene where his wife yells at her husband with a gun (both exciting and thrilling) ).

Finally, on the day when the plan was implemented, the siblings asked Simi's lover to bring 10 million yuan to the construction site to exchange evidence with them. Tying the male protagonist and Simi in an outdated ward, it seems that the male protagonist has been destined to be drained of the value of his body by the two brothers and sisters from the very beginning.

The siblings asked Simi's lover to put the money into the elevator first, and then he returned the evidence. Although the male protagonist warned the two that this man was very cunning, at this time both of them had been blinded by 10 million yuan. They successfully trapped their lover in the elevator, which was abominable and retribution. The younger brother Moxie lost too much blood. The rescue was ineffective, and the heartbroken eldest sister found out that most of the money in the whole bag was blank paper, and in the end it was a miserable backstage.

At this time, Simi suggested that the two should join hands to escape from here, and take the initiative to help the male protagonist to untangle the knot. When she came to her, the male protagonist didn't know whether he really couldn't see it or acted stupid, and he never untied the female protagonist's mask. In the end, he chose to trust the heroine. Not only did he take off the mask, but he also followed the instructions of the heroine to break the glass and escape together.

When all the restraints on the heroine were untied, he beat the hero frantically, as if he never intended to let him go.

At this time, the doctor came in, because she was very upset by the blood drawn from Simi before, so she picked up the surgical scissors scattered from the toolbox and stabbed him in the chest frantically. In the end, thanks to the male lead, he saved his life.

While Simi was in a coma again, the doctor tied up Simi and threw her into the trunk of the car and drove away together with the male protagonist. On the way, the doctor finally revealed his true intention. It turned out that the purpose of drawing blood from Simi was to verify the matching of blood types, because a rich man in the Middle East urgently needed someone with this blood type to save his daughter.

But for some unknown reason, the male protagonist was suddenly kind-hearted and asked the doctor to transfer Simi to the public security organ.

This scene seems very abrupt. I have never shown the kindness of the male protagonist before. Such a scene is really confusing. Suddenly the Virgin is possessed. The only explanation can only be that the male protagonist realizes that if he does not stop all this, then You will become the accomplice of the murderer yourself.

This interpretation is entirely to fit the selfish and cautious character of the male protagonist, otherwise it will not make sense.

The doctor took him all the way to repay his favor, because he saw the cowardly side of the male protagonist and decided that even if he let him go, he could get out of his body. At this moment, the kidnapped Simi woke up, and Both the doctor and the male protagonist noticed and stopped halfway.

Suddenly the screen switched to 2 years later, the male protagonist and Sophie met again in London. Sophie questioned him about what happened in the past. At this time, the camera cut back to the scene of parking, the doctor was killed by Simi, and the male protagonist found that the driver was driving. It was Simi. The male protagonist re-emphasized that he would not intervene in this matter again and was kicked out of the car. Simi finally chose to turn around to kill the male protagonist. It was still evil, and the car overturned and killed people.

Finally everything is over.

Seeing this, many people will feel that this scene is too abrupt and too coincidental to accept.

Finally, the male protagonist said goodbye to Sophie and left with a cane.

But after leaving Sophie's line of sight, the male protagonist uses crutches to precisely pump the moment under his feet, and the movie ends.

Just after watching it, I wonder why there is such a plot movie and the score can still reach 9 points.

But thinking about it carefully, most of the plot of this movie from beginning to end is based on the male protagonist's vision, then when he explained to Sophie the result of the incident two years ago, it suddenly got through.

Because he made it all up.

It's not that Simi was really killed by the dramatic scene. It's more likely that it was like the scene when he was making a statement at the police station. The doctor sold her to a rich man in the Middle East. She really died, but she hopes to die. The value of it is atonement. He also gave back a favor to the male protagonist. The doctor and the male protagonist have no relationship, but they have morals. They really let the male protagonist go and helped him resist London.

As for the treatment of the eyes, there is really no conclusion.

In general, there will be a lot of doubts after watching this movie, because there are many reversals at the beginning of the main film, which makes people unable to turn their heads. Perhaps this is also the director's intention to let the audience follow his pictures. There is no time to think too much, and finally let the film come to an end in the open ending.

This dramatic approach makes the audience think more after watching the film, and finally finds the director's intentions surprised, and really understands the intention of the unreasonable parts of the film.

The above is my personal introduction combined with the plot of the film. If you have any shortcomings or have more conjectures of your own, you can leave a message. After all, everyone has different ways of thinking, so it will be more interesting to discuss the film.
