Compared with the story, the film is more eye-catching because it reflects the spiritual value of the times. The protagonist of the photographer leads the audience to focus on the fashion and aesthetics of the 1960s, the lack of belief in the younger generation, the addiction to rock and drug addiction, and the collapse of mainstream values... Of course, the discussion about the real and the virtual is also very interesting: the group at the end There are two interpretations of hippies playing "virtual tennis" - 1. The virtual theory of tennis games: as long as the rules of the game are recognized by the group, even if it is absurd and empty, it is meaningful; on the other hand, photographers experience corpses. The murder case as evidence, because he is the only witness, so when all traces are erased, it seems that nothing has happened! 2. Tennis game truth says: People who have seen the movie must have the same idea as me, except for the lack of Apart from the props, the movements, expressions and reactions of the hippies are almost exactly in line with the scenes of playing tennis. Even the photographers watching the field participated in "picking up the ball", which actually reflected that he also recognized the rules of the game, or was similar to them in a certain level. To outsiders (who don't believe in the photographer's character in the film), the photographer is like a "madman" dancing in the air, ridiculous and meaningless, only the photographer and the hippies believe that dead bodies and tennis balls? Existence, they testify to their existence, to prove a certain truth. Even if all traces have been erased, this does not deny existence itself.
In addition, there may be a possibility that the whole so-called "murder case" was imagined by the photographer, who is actually a fellow traveler of the hippies? Haha, mom, that's horrible too! There is a little basis - A. Think about it, in fact, before the body was disposed of, the photographer's friend (Lun?) and his wife (lover) did not believe his statement, at least showed indifference and impatience . (A normal person should be interested in a murder case.) B. Before going to the park to see the body the next day, the camera is aimed at the male protagonist who is waking up from the bed. Then the corpse I saw last night disappeared, and the park was unusually calm, which made me feel like I must have had a nightmare... C. Both shots of the park made me feel unreal: Big Vision, There are few pedestrians in the park full of vitality, the sound of tennis playing in the distance is occasionally caught in the invisible wind, and the branches are trembling (a corpse may lie under the branches), how weird is it?
In terms of materialism, considering the background of the times, this is the product of the general spiritual nothingness and the lack of subject value in the post-war West. It's not that they don't believe the photographer's words, they're just indifferent to death itself.
- "That's just a body."
- "I just don't care!"
