"Idiot", gangbang and anti-social

After a long time, there is no trigger point to start writing. Two days ago, a girl said that she would recommend each other to me to watch movies, and I was quite surprised. However, it was later discovered that she was a bit bluffing. This also seems to be what I meant before: the more you know about a thing, the more difficult it is to give a more accurate definition of this thing. Of course, now I know that I'm just a bug in the apple of the movie world. I watch too much and eat too little. I'm afraid it will take time to jump out of the movie and watch the movie. And what I can understand and speak, seems to be less and less, more of a kind of hazy, or simply in a state of silence. After holding it for a long time, I actually held back something, in twos and threes, I came up with something I don't know the importance of, I am really ashamed.

It was an accident to find "Idiot". At that time, I was collecting the complete works of Akira Kurosawa, and I accidentally downloaded it. I later learned that this film is actually a representative work of dogma95. However, I don't think it can match "Dancer in the Darkness". dogma95 is a trend of thought created by a group of European directors. It has never become a mainstream, but it still has a lot of influence. After watching "Dancer in the Darkness", student DV was just emerging. I was optimistic that this technology would flourish, but the result was not what I expected. Now that DV is rampant, and even dogma95s often break their own rules, there are fewer and fewer reasons to insist on doctrine. Speaking of this destruction, "Idiot" turned on the lights in some places, and some of the voices were made later, but it became a pretext for the opponents, so that the activists smashed the doctrine in the foot with doctrine. Of course, this does not prevent many people from watching it, and many people like it.

The second reason I want to write about this movie is the word gangbang. When I wrote something on msn, I briefly mentioned the word. I didn't want to prompt that there were stop words, so I couldn't send it. This surprised me a bit. Filtering words is generally a reason for outsiders to laugh at the mainland network. Why does msn also play this? Later, I checked Jinshan, and it was inevitable that I was a little surprised when I understood its meaning, but I still didn't quite understand the reason why msn banned words. Of course, it is said that this film was also controversial because of the lens represented by this word. After all, it is still difficult for "real guns and live ammunition" to enter the public table. Just like the alternative female writer-director in France who filmed "baise-moi" back then, of course, it didn't just refer to the gangbang scene. It also has anti-social connotations. Anti-social, I have never felt deeply, maybe the culture we belong to is getting more and more difficult to breed this kind of thing. I don't know much, and I don't intend to expand. The anti-social in the title has other intentions.

"Idiot" tells the story of a group of Copenhagen youth pretending to be crazy and selling stupid things. In order to express their dissatisfaction with the society, or even to escape, a group of people got together. And their stories are strung together by a middle-aged woman who just lost her child. At first, the middle-aged women went from being amazed, to watching, and then to using practice to prove the actual meaning of this behavior and save this movement, the film came to an end. There are always various ills in society, so dissatisfaction with society is the most common. If dissatisfaction is expressed by extreme or even anti-social practices, it seems that the problem is not small. "Idiot" seems to have little description of this. The dissatisfaction of middle-aged women with their waste of caviar seems to reveal that these people are at least wealthy, and it is always difficult to say about wealthy people, otherwise large-scale wealthy people Nor will it be an active promoter of things like democracy. However, they still did not play, either as a game or as a struggle. Although middle-aged women bravely walked out of the house, it seems self-evident what the future holds. They can continue to choose their so-called struggle, but they cannot see any future in this struggle, and even they themselves doubt the true meaning of this so-called struggle. They don't know how long they can go.

I have no intention of arguing about the effects of being anti-social, or criticizing anti-social, I just want to stress that they can't play anymore in the end. I walked around, took a lot of detours, and suddenly found myself walking back. If you want to ridicule the society in an anti-social way, but you don’t want yourself to be the object of ridicule, you have to go back to live a normal life honestly in the end. The motives behind their actions are not pure - everyone who was given the final "belief appraisal" easily chose to give up - this kind of very impure behavior has few opportunities to resonate with people. That's all I want to stress. Including the seemingly bizarre things that happen around us all the time, which can be stripped of their turbulent and gorgeous coats, as practiced by young people like "Idiot".

Anti-social is also a value orientation. And this article does not intend to do any orientation.
