Although the film "The Tuner" is from the French short film of the same name, the discussion of human nature derived from it is obviously beyond blue. It interprets human nature incisively and vividly, leaving people with mixed tastes and indescribable words. In this big "fraud" of society, no one is good to whom, only who is of value to whom. Let me talk about my understanding of a few details first.
1. Is the male protagonist pretending to be blind for art? Not just. You can get many benefits by pretending to be blind, such as getting sympathy, becoming a gimmick, making it easier to pick up girls, and being able to live in cheap public rental housing from the government. Compared with Simi, the male protagonist's acting skills are even better. Simi just deceived the whole world, but the male protagonist deceived himself. The last "Blind Rabbit" was his consolation for deceiving himself. In the ending of deceiving Sophie, he said to Simi in the cab: "Don't kill her, or I will never be able to play the piano again." And what are the specific facts? I don't know, but the male protagonist must have done something bad, so I pray for peace of mind.
2. Simi and Sheriff Manjano were cheating on each other, but just because Manjano had a gun, he had to kill Plummer who "created a surprise" and "fired away"? Can the sheriff's gun fire at will? This is what Simi said when explaining the facts of the murder, but I think it's probably just her lie. But anyway, for Simi, she didn't want Plummer to die, and when she confronted Manjano, she said: "Why do you have a gun, maybe Plummer will forgive me." It can be seen Simi is scheming, while Manjano is more simple and rude. He firmly believes that the dead can shut up, so it is estimated that Manjano directly shot KO Plummer, which is easy for a sheriff. In order to gain Akash's sympathy and create opportunities for subsequent harm to him, Simi made up a lie of "shooting and misfire". It can be seen that Simi's acting skills are deep, even when revealing the truth, he did not forget to cover up. We often say "bad guys die by talking too much", and it seems that Simi is one of the few villains I've seen online with IQ.
3. The purpose of the mother and son saving lives was to earn 200,000 rupees. After hearing the male protagonist say "Tattoo of Lord Shiva", he gave up the plan and regarded the male protagonist as a god. Really? I speculate that the reason why the mother and son gave up this plan is that after the male protagonist said the tattoo, he was uneasy. They did not know if the male protagonist knew some other information, which might be detrimental to them, or even bring about murder. So after the male protagonist woke up, he immediately asked with concern "Can you see us?" Of course, the male protagonist understood the meaning, so he pretended. However, the male protagonist did not accurately say what the doctor looked like, which may have reassured the mother and son. Maybe he wasn't blind before, but he was really blind now, at least they could be sure of that. At this time, the male protagonist announced his plan to kidnap Simi in order to protect himself. The mother and son decided to take it upon themselves, and had long planned to tie the male protagonist to pocket the money. There are two ironies here: one is the background music of that paragraph, to the effect of finding a true friend; the other is the tattoo of Lord Shiva on the mother's hand, which is also her doing it in the name of a god against her conscience. consolation of things.
4. When Simi was about to kill the doctor, the male protagonist saved the doctor. Only then could the doctor subdue Simi and thank the male protagonist, saying, "You saved me, I must repay my gratitude." It seems very reasonable and in line with the Chinese value orientation. But is it really so? Based on the doctor's temperament and the situation at the time, I think it would be more reasonable to kill the male protagonist no matter what. why? Because the male protagonist knows all his secrets, killing him will never cause future troubles, and at the same time he can get two very good kidneys, and the male protagonist and Simi are both people who should have disappeared in this world, for him, there is nothing to gain. It is very easy for a doctor to kill a blind man with one harm. Then why didn't the doctor kill the male lead? I speculate that the reason should be the next operation or a certain link with the chief. The male protagonist is still valuable to the doctor. As for what the value is, there is too little information in the film to infer. So why would I infer that? Because I think it is unreasonable that the doctor suddenly "discovers his conscience", and the second is that the doctor actually has a nurse (a real nurse appeared when he was teaching his son's math homework), here we can boldly infer that the proper occupation of a doctor should be He is the director of a certain hospital, and then he starts a black market operation behind his back, and the black market operation done by a doctor must be behind his family and those nurses (at least in the hospital where the male protagonist works), the real nurses have not appeared), but need that To help an amateur like a mother and son shows that the doctor needs help during the operation, even if the person knows nothing.
In this film, maybe Sheriff Manjano is the most ruthless, but he is not the worst. On the contrary, I feel that he is a little pitiful. It feels like he has been sucked by Su Daji and needs to replenish 16 eggs every day. While others did not kill directly, they interpret the "selfishness, greed, and desire" of human nature, even if it is only a small role.
Maybe after watching this movie, everyone will have a feeling: society is so terrible, we are like "Sophie", completely led by the nose. Of course, some film critics directly define Sophie as "silly white sweet". Of course, this is understandable, because after watching the movie, Sophie is one of the few positive images and an innocent person, which can easily make the audience feel immersed in it. Sophie."
I think this is also the consolation that the audience is reluctant to admit to seeing the truth. Whether they are willing to believe in the "scam" of the world, or are willing to believe that there is still "truth, goodness and beauty", most people choose the latter, because the former is too tiring to live. This involves Nietzsche's "original sin" thought. God reveals the truth to the world, but the world turns a blind eye.
But actually, it's not that scary. Even if this society is complex and undercurrents are surging, you and I can't see clearly in the light, but we might as well live out our own lives. Here I want to talk about the Sophie I saw. Does Sophie really know nothing? the answer is negative.
In terms of work and scheming, Sophie, Simi and the male protagonist are probably a lot different from each other, which is why everyone gave her the "simple" label. But she is not a fool, she is also very smart, and there are many details in the film to show her cleverness and "little abacus", but she did not use these cleverness to the disadvantage. The biggest suspense in the whole film is the ending that the male protagonist told Sophie at the end. Does Sophie really believe it? I would like to doubt it. Since Sophie saw the male protagonist again, her eyes were filled with curiosity and doubt. And the male protagonist can guess that she is Sophie just by touching her hands, which is obviously unreasonable. If it is said that after a person is blind, the sense of hearing and touch will be different from ordinary people, but when the male protagonist is in contact with Sophie, the male protagonist is not really blind, then how can he keep this tactile memory and recognize it two years later Sophie?
The bridge of this encounter is the yearning for love stories in the hearts of many audiences. In romantic films, after the hero and heroine have been separated for many years, a sentence of "long time no see" can be worth a thousand words and tug at everyone's heartstrings. For example, in the recent 2019 version of "Eternal Sky and Dragon Slayer", the screenwriter still asked Ji Min to meet after a long detour to satisfy the audience's appetite. But this is not a romance movie. When Sophie saw Akash again, in Sophie's mind, Akash was a liar and a fake blind. So there is an error between the audience and Sophie, that is, the audience knows that Akash is really blind at this time, but Sophie does not know, so after Akash shook hands, Sophie naturally knew that the other party saw her, so she called Out of the name, it is not surprising. However, after Akash told the truth in his mouth, and showed his "really blind" appearance, wouldn't Sophie have a question mark in her heart? You are really blind, so how did you recognize me? Just the touch of your hand? Could it be that I have some unique scent on me?
If I were Sophie, then I would guess two possibilities: either I came to Europe this time, everything was in his calculations, and he deliberately created this encounter; or, he was not blind.
So with this question, when Sophie listens to the ending of the male lead, will she believe it? Not all, on the contrary, it will deepen her suspicion of the male lead. Because there is also the biggest foreshadowing in the whole film, only she and the doctor know that Simi has diabetes. Akash didn't know that Simi had diabetes, so the doctor told Akash that Simi would definitely die without a liver, because the most important thing for a person is the liver (point of question), but if she died, you can put her The kidneys are also used to save people, in order to persuade the male protagonist to start with him. And Sophie is well aware that Simi has diabetes, so there is a huge loophole in this story, so either the doctor is unprofessional, or they lied to Akash, or Akash lied to me.
Many viewers define Sophie's feelings after listening to the story told by the male protagonist as "moved and moved", especially when asked the male protagonist "then why don't you come to me", the male protagonist said "I'm afraid of hurting you", and he is willing to The flight time was changed to attend the male protagonist's concert, and it seemed that Sophie had no lingering feelings. But I don't think so. First of all, there are two misunderstandings here. As I just said, the director has captured the audience's two inertial thinking: one is that everyone has acquiesced that Sophie is a fool; It's normal, it's normal. However, maybe I've watched too many romance movies, at least I can't see joy in Sophie's emotions, or weeping with joy.
Maybe Sophie's plane wasn't the next morning?
What a coincidence, it just so happened that your concert was in the afternoon, my plane was in the morning, and we met in the afternoon the day before. I am more willing to speculate that Sophie politely refused this meeting with a skeptical mood, and the subsequent "I will try my best" is just a euphemistic expression. The three words "I try my best" may be very touching to everyone, and there is a feeling of being disconnected. But have you ever thought that Sophie also has an inconspicuous white boyfriend. We don't know if they came to Europe for a vacation or something. There is even a possibility that Sophie left the sad place of India and went to Europe to find a white boyfriend to settle in. The reason why she chose Europe may be because The only trace of nostalgia left in my heart for the male protagonist, after all, I have loved it (the male protagonist mentioned going to Europe). Even with a bigger brain hole, the male protagonist found out about the female protagonist and her white boyfriend, jealous of him, and deliberately created this chance encounter. Finally, seeing the female protagonist's hesitant attitude, he vented his anger with a can. Of course this is my pure brain opening.
But my opinion is that Sophie has also learned to protect herself. At least I think that after listening to the male protagonist finish telling the story, she is dubious, not completely convinced, nor completely disbelieving, after all, the story is bizarre, well-founded, and reasonable, but she no longer fully trusts the male protagonist, even if she does not I want to understand the reason, but I think she should not be the silly white sweet she used to be, and she has also learned how to protect herself in a complex society and understands that "the heart of being defensive is essential". I feel that the director is intentionally portraying Sophie's hesitation, which also gives a reasonable explanation for the last male protagonist to puff out a can: love can't.
There are also three slightly simpler characters in the film: the daughter Danny, the child, and the old woman. Daughter Danny should not love her father and stepmother. The emotions throughout the whole process were light. Maybe her video call with her father was just out of filial piety. Defrauded for ill-gotten gains, and finally received a slap in the face. As for the old woman, I think it is an unreasonable part of the whole film. Since she knows that Simi is full of lies, she will so easily believe that she is really having a headache and lead the wolf into the room? There is a murder case next door, what Simi said is not true, and her husband is a retired navy. Normally speaking, this role should have a relatively deep guard, even an ordinary person, when encountering a change in the neighbor's house, at least there will be So grumpy. Of course, maybe the director wants to use the story of "The Farmer and the Snake" to tell us that the old woman died because she didn't put on the "body armor" of "heart-proof", so as to deepen the theme of the film.
"What is life? It depends on the liver."
The film tells us that life is to live, and the director translates liver as liver, which is a pun. Many viewers exclaimed after watching it, it's really not easy to live, as if the story of the male protagonist is telling us that good people are deceived by others, and in a complicated world, only the wicked can rule. But I don't think that's the case. The so-called human kindness is not "stupid kindness", it's not kindness, it's stupidity. After the 2019 version of "Eternal Sky and Dragon Slayer" reformed Zhang Wuji, he stood at the highest point of benevolence, righteousness and morality, so he didn't want to be the emperor, the leader, or Zhao Min. This is "silly good". What is true kindness? It is Yang Xiao's tenderness towards Ji Xiaofu, Ji Xiaofu's determination not to kill Yang Xiao, and Zhao Min's courage to resign from the position of county master to gather with you. And Sophie in the film is also kind. Even though she has a lot of bad thoughts, she is affectionate and righteous, and dares to love and hate. When facing the approaching truth, she left a step for herself, perhaps this step is her last life. down the weights. Just imagine, if she is really that stupid and throws herself in her arms again, is the male protagonist still worthy of her love at this time? Is it worth her effort? It might even lead to murder. Sophie's hesitant step was her wisdom and her "bullet vest", which protected herself.
The male protagonist is not good. If he didn't choose this way of "pretending to be blind" and deceived at the beginning, and relying solely on his own talent, although he may have an ordinary life and never have a bright day, he will never be involved in this bizarre drama. In the whirlpool, this may not be the end in the end. The male protagonist's "pretend to be blind" seems to be worthy of sympathy, but in fact, when he faced the complicated society, he chose to opportunistically and used his crooked brains. If he knew from the beginning that "playing blind" would lead to death, I'm afraid this would not be the case. But what if there are so many?
Therefore, we often say that when you are a human being beforehand, if you encounter any difficulties and setbacks, don’t be ill-intentioned. There are solutions to the right way. Although it may be difficult, troublesome, and time-consuming, it is necessary to settle yourself and hone yourself. There will always be opportunities. What if you live your whole life without doing anything? As long as you know that you are worthy of your conscience, then success or failure, naturally there is no conclusion.
Human nature is complex, we can't see everything, but we can know what to do. Wang Yangming said: " The heart of a sage is like a bright mirror. I am only afraid that the mirror is unclear, and I am not afraid that things cannot be illuminated ." We are always just bystanders in other people's stories, so just be yourself. As for others who want to harm you, don't be afraid. The first step to being yourself is to learn to protect yourself. Just like Sophie in the film, when you find that the person or thing in front of you has exceeded your imagination, you might as well Take a step back. The only martial art Wei Xiaobao is proficient in is "Gods and Changes". If I can't beat you, can't I run away from you? Learn to protect yourself, and then understand your heart, then no matter how complicated the social eddy, you can also enjoy the heroic "Swordsman", why fear it?
