This afternoon, I watched the Hollywood movie "Anna and the King" starring Chow Yun-fat and Jodie Foster. The movie aired for nearly 4 hours. Although it took me a lot of time, it left me with a lot of reverie. It is not a bad thing to use the spiritual food of human civilization to relieve hunger in leisure time. In the movie, Anna, a British woman, was invited to be a tutor in the Siam Palace. Due to the differences between Eastern and Western cultures and their personalities, she sometimes had conflicts with the king's children and even the king himself, and was even almost driven out. But with the deepening of understanding, especially in the process of smashing the coup plot of the hostile elements, Anna's fearlessness and the king's loyalty to his country left a deep impression on the other party. The king realized that women can be equal to him. ; And the children sincerely regard her as their good teacher and friend. Just when the king loved her from the bottom of his heart, she thought that she had completed the task of coming to the palace to teach and solve doubts, and resolutely returned to her motherland. Forty years later, the proud protégé of the year has inherited the throne, showing allegiance to his country like the old king, and leading his people to prepare for the march into the twentieth century. In the movie, Anna dared to pursue the truth, dared to maintain the cultural dignity of herself and her country, dared to fight against the secular and power, and the image of the king who was able to be close to the people, be able to express the old and accept the new, and be able to learn from the common will have left me with the image. deep memory. At the same time, when Anna left Siam and was about to return to the country, the little prince's narration was even more classic. The little prince said, "I was still young at the time, but I will remember the picture of my father hugging his most beloved woman. It is clear. The good moments in life are often only a small part, and sometimes it is over before it begins, but the impact it brings will be unforgettable. Anna is an example.” View of Anna and the King afterthought 2 "Anna and the King" naturally reminds me of another Hollywood blockbuster, "Silence of the Lambs," with the same female lead, Jodie Foster. It seems that Judy's quiet face, seemingly introverted and inner hard temperament make her the perfect choice to play such an intelligent and strong woman with ease. At first glance, although the stories, times and backgrounds narrated in "Anna and the King" and "The Silence of the Lambs" are so different and interesting, they have the same inner spiritual clues - breaking the constant object nature of Hollywood films' narrative women. As a convention, women do what men can't and become saviors: In Silence of the Lambs, "Clarice/A woman defeats a perverted killer/A man saves another woman/Innocent and innocent. Helping Catherine" (Dai Jin Chinese); in "Anna and the King", Anna/a woman conquers the king/a man, and indirectly saves a country/an ancient and uncivilized Thailand facing a colonial crisis. And is this really the case on the inside behind the surface? Is it Hollywood's gender strategy, the evolution of the female perspective? Is it an exotic romantic saga love fairy tale? or something else? Looking at the leopard in the tube, we can choose two very representative stills for comparison to cut into our thinking. One is "Silence of the Lambs", Clarice entered the elevator of the FBI building, and she was petite and slender among a group of tall and burly male police officers, resulting in a somewhat comical effect. Wearing a ponytail and wearing sportswear, there is a kind of childish immaturity and confusion on his face; one is a poster of "Anna and the King", in which Anna, wearing an elegant and luxurious floor-length apron, leads a group of descendants of the Thai royal family who are too short and even dwarfed. They are like a kind of refined and noble that stands out from the crowd. These two stills are actually quite representative of Jodie Foster's intrinsically positioned in both films. Regarding "Silence of the Lambs", Mr. Dai Jinhua's book "Mirrors and Secular Myths" has a very profound and incisive analysis.
