a little whim, a little bit of the past, mixed with some old memories, love, friendship, kinship and all those "relationships" and songs you've heard during the day, what you see, There is also personal privacy, the subtle combination of these complex ingredients that form the dream and this film called "Scientific Sleep".
Freud believed that dreams are formed by desires in consciousness bypassing resistance and taking the opportunity to break into consciousness in a disguised way. It can be seen that dreams are a euphemism for desires that have been suppressed into the subconscious when awake. "Scientific Sleep" is a good movie that is easy to miss. It is full of symbols and symbols, and it is full of films that probe into people's subconscious. It narrates dreams in detail and straightforwardly, cleverly puts the contradictory unity of dream and reality in the same space, and conducts a fierce analysis of them.
The male protagonist in the film is an unwilling little man named Stephen, who is addicted to dreams and stays in another world in his heart. In the dream, he is the director of that world, he is the master of that world, and his consciousness controls the occurrence of those images. You can do whatever you want, you can do anything you want, you can achieve success, you can get complete freedom, you can fly completely freely... It is a colorful and fantastic world, which makes people indulge in it.
Stephen is a child with the body of an adult. He is intelligent and selfish, insecure and caressed, weak and good at escape, possessive, fragile and eager to be strong, eager to realize his own value, afraid of being hurt but not knowing how to protect himself. When he met Stephanie, who liked to make puppets, he couldn't help but fall in love with her. Cotton and wool are soft and harmless and are undoubtedly the most suitable for him.
He said: "Stephanie can achieve the complete union of the synapse and the fingers." She can make a little cloth boat and collect injured little cloth foals, and she can understand him, and she can make his dreams come true, he thought. They need each other. Stephen murmured to her dream words on the other end of the phone, dream and reality were connected together, he brought her into his world, the spiritual world of the two people merged together, and their souls found common ground. The attribution of dream and reality is no longer difficult to distinguish.
When Stephen soberly realized the gap between dreams and reality because of his love, he chose to give up trust and choose to escape, and dreams also became a place for venting his inner fears and a city in ruins. Desire is a bottomless black hole. His emotional longing for everything but not being satisfied is a kind of torture, a huge spiritual betrayal, all of which he cannot accept. And when he saw the ship carrying the forest, he saw the match between dream and reality again, everything returned to Enron, and his heart regained a sense of belonging.
This movie makes me feel like "Angel Emily" with elements of reality. The two stories with the same plot structure are equally timid, lonely and lacking in self-confidence. The two protagonists are equally addicted to the whimsical world. Fortunately, they finally have found their other half.
In life we always have dual attitudes, our automatic implicit attitudes about people or things are usually different from the explicit attitudes that are controlled by consciousness. For example, Stephen thought at first that he liked Zoe because his reason told him that Zoe was beautiful, and his subconscious intuition had detected that he really liked Stephanie; for example, Guy threw the TV into the river and abandoned the media. The shackles of the stereotypes of the objective world on people's thinking patterns; for example, the film's editing method of no transition between dreams and reality, and the same trivial shaking shots made me have to think that if dreams and reality are reversed, that is, the so-called reality is just a sleepwalking of the body, And our true origin is the self that exists in the dream. I like the so-called word, because it gives people a reverie and makes more possibilities exist. If the so-called soul exists, then it is more free to wander in dreams!
The most impressive part of the film is that apart from the male and female protagonists discussing making a small cloth boat, there is also the male protagonist singing "IF You Rescue Me" with a melancholy voice in a furry bear costume in his dream, the guitar sound is warm and kind, warm Straight to the heart:
“If you rescue me,
I'll be your friend forever,
Let me in your bed,
I'll keep you warm in winter,
All the kiddies are playing
and they're having such fun,
I wish that could happen to me,
But if you rescue me,
I'll never have to be alone again.
Oh the cars drive so fast
and the people are mean,
and sometimes it's hard to find food,
let me into your room,
I'll keep you warm and amused ,
all the things we can do in the rain
If you rescue me,
I'll be your friend forever,
Let me in your bed,
I'll keep you warm in winter,
Oh someday I know
someone will look into my eyes
and say, "Hello, you're my very special kitten",
So if you rescue me,
I'll never have to be alone again,
I'll never have to be alone again,
I'll never have to be alone again.”
