The selection of materials for the movie "Quil" must have caused a lot of controversy. This film has never been shown in China, and not many people have seen it, but almost everyone knows something related to the prototype of the main characters in the film, that is, SM The S comes from the initials of his name - the Marquis de Sade, a controversial figure in the late 18th and early 19th centuries in France. This marquis lived a rotten life and liked perverts xn. After being imprisoned in the Bastille, he wrote a series of works about bt, and was regarded by later generations as the originator of perverted psychology. His theory is: only qy is the true face of a person, and any gs is a false illusion. This film selects the story that Marquis de Sade wrote with his life during his later years in the lunatic asylum. His tenacious and unyielding spirit is comparable to the martyrs in the scum cave in the movie, and is definitely better than that. The asylum is run by the kind and generous young priest Kaulmai, who allows Thad to write and even organize the patients to act, which he believes can help the patients relieve their illness. But with the help of the maid, the Marquis de Sade was able to publish the sq novel, which caused social shock and also caused Napoleon's anger. The young priest confiscated the Marquis de Sade's writing tools under the threat of doctors closing the insane asylum. But the Marquis de Sade continued to write novels using wine for ink, chicken bones for pens, and sheets for paper. The priest was even more angry, and took away all the furniture, books, etc. in the room, leaving only one empty room. The marquis even pierced ten fingers with glass, and used his own blood to write works of sq on his trousers. The priest was so furious that he simply stripped him and left the Marquis of Sade naked in an empty room. However, Sade did not give up, and in the middle of the night, with the help of the patient, the maid recorded the sq story in a house-to-house manner. On the way, a madman was too excited and set the room on fire, causing a fire. In the chaos, the maid was killed by a perverted patient. Father Colmar, who loved the maid very much, became extremely sad and angry. Use anesthesia. The Marquis, who lost his tongue and was in handcuffs and shackles, did not give up, and in the last moments of his life used his own feces as ink to write sq stories on the walls. The scene is absolutely shocking. Regardless of what Sade did, just as far as the process of depicting Sade in the film is concerned, there is clearly a lot of sympathy and admiration for the character. Yes, a person can do things with such a clear purpose, such tenacious perseverance, and his achievements must not be small. The worst example is the diabolical Hitler, and there are good examples abound, but it's hard to reach the level of terrifying respectability in the movie. The other three people in the film are also very important and are indispensable characters used to express the theme. The beautiful and simple maid, Meidelian, was deeply loved by the priest. With his help, she learned to read and write, but she was addicted to Sade's erotic novels. . The maid herself explained to the priest that when she read the novel, she transformed herself into the whore slut in the book, so that she could be a good girl in life. After she was killed, a medical examination confirmed that she was still vergin. Her story seems to tell people that there is also a lustful beast lurking in the hearts of simple and pure people. The priest is a noble person, with culture, accomplishment, morality and ideals. He cared about his patients and obeyed strict rules. Although he loved the beautiful and kind maid, he did not stray from the line at all. He only cared about her and tried his best to help her. When she was found to have passed the sq text and was whipped by the doctor, the priest stepped forward and was willing to accept the punishment in her stead. Meidelian had always loved the priest deeply. Seeing such a move, she went to the priest's room in the middle of the night to show her love and dedicate herself. The priest had a violent conflict in her heart, and finally rejected Meidelian in the name of God. However, in the mortuary of Meidailian, the priest was distraught in the middle of the night, waiting by the side, but dreamed that Meidailian had come back to life, and the two made a loving gesture. love. At this moment, someone reported that the Marquis had written on the wall and was about to die. The priest wanted him to make a final confession to save the Marquis' soul. Unexpectedly, the Marquis bit the cross and swallowed it. The greatly stimulated priest, insane, became a patient in a lunatic asylum, and finally began to write. The priest should be regarded as a truly noble person. Although he has the last dream, he still cannot be called hypocrisy, but he looks weak. Perhaps this is what the creator wants to tell us: the noble virtues cultivated in later generations are in front of the human beings themselves. , Even if you can avoid hypocrisy, you can't escape the fate of being pale and weak and doing nothing? The villain in the film is a doctor, who is noble on the outside, hypocritical, cruel and dirty on the inside. He uses torture to treat the mentally ill. He himself was old, but he adopted a beautiful orphan girl and put it in a convent. When he was less than sixteen years old, he hurriedly married her home as an xy tool, and locked her up like a prisoner. But she managed to find Sade's sq novel and put it into the "Anthology of the Holy Maiden", which was torn from the inside pages, and read it with relish in front of the doctor. In the end, he also used this book to seduce the architect who decorated the doctor, and successfully eloped, which can be regarded as the author's great ridicule to the doctor. When the priest became mentally ill, the doctor officially took over the madhouse, changed the priest's generous and benevolent management, and transformed the madhouse into a printing factory, specializing in printing Sade's works, and the doctor made a fortune. We can disagree with the movie, but we can't deny that the movie is attractively made. In fact, if we expand lust into material desire, and then look back at the present, it will be difficult for us to deny the authenticity of the movie. Real, and it's shocking, albeit frustrating. But daring to look back at this truth may contain the intention of breaking away from vulgar taste.
