The second film I misread, confused "Lawrence of Two Sides" with "The Life of Adele" again. The last two films that were confused were "Blade Runner" and "Blade Runner 2049". Well, anyway, these two films are also to watch. When I first understood the concept of lgbt, it started with a short film, which was actually shot by high school students. The senior year of the senior year of the International Department of the High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China. They are busy with their studies and can still make movies. The short film is called "Escape", and it can't be called a short film. It has been 75 minutes, which is quite long. Probably starting from this film, I learned about the concept-transgender. Then, there seems to be less of this kind of subject matter, maybe I don't watch it too much, but there is a little bit of it in "Dallas Buyers Club." This director, I first knew him, from a MV called "School Boys". At the time, I thought this MV was well done, and then I watched "I Killed My Mom", which also contained some discussions about homosexuality, but this film should be mainly about the mother-child relationship. I think the mother-son relationship in "Lawrence of Two Sides" is quite similar to this "I Killed My Mom", it looks quite alienated, but in fact, blood is thicker than water, both sides are not good at expressing, or the mother and son are too similar. Very tough. There is also a movie called "Mummy", but I haven't watched it yet. This director really likes to discuss the relationship between mother and son.
Well, maybe it has something to do with his childhood, maybe we need to know more about it. This movie is very Doran's style. Especially fight scenes. When I saw the special portrait like "I Killed My Mother", I suddenly had a violent noise without any foreshadowing, and the noise was fierce.
For that "I Killed My Mom", what impressed me most was the quarrel scene, and the use of music was also very obvious. I can't tell you the specifics. The music is slowed down, but there are similarities.
The emotions in this film are very exposed, and his expression technique is also very, it can be said that it is very obvious.
For example, when the heroine reads the book of the male lead, she pours water on the top; this flood reminds me of Park Zanyu's "The Bat",
There are also two people who reunited after many years and eloped together, but it was also raining from the sky;
And when two people were arguing, a butterfly flew out of the male protagonist's mouth. I especially liked this episode.
These emotions are all very exposed. How should I put it, I think there may be some other metaphors, not to say that it only reflects the inner subtext of this character.
For example, this butterfly, the male and female protagonists met for the first time, didn't the male protagonist make a butterfly out of iron wire and give it to the female protagonist?
If this wire is a butterfly, it symbolizes the beginning of their relationship.
So starting from the scene where the butterfly flew out of the male protagonist's mouth, the emotions of the two of them should have been exhausted. I wanted to use the word "disintegration", which felt inappropriate. Because they were later connected to each other,
But I think from that scene, the relationship between the two of them should have ended. Just like the end, the two of them have a tacit understanding and run away from each other.
When the two of them first met, the heroine was dressed like a boy, very capable. It may also be this, that attracted this male protagonist, so does this male protagonist want to accept it?
The value orientation of these two people at the beginning is actually quite the same, that is, they are different from ordinary people, and then they don't follow the rules, pursue the unconventional, pursue freedom, and don't take the secular in their eyes.
In fact, this boy has always been like this, but when he was with Charlotte later, he still seemed to have some unexpected visions.
But this heroine can't do it. Since she had a big quarrel with the proprietress in the restaurant, she has been unable to keep her eyes on the unexpected world. She even cared so much that she was suffering from anxiety.
She still really wanted to be a person who was different from ordinary people and pursued freedom. Since the two of them met again later, the heroine abandoned everything and ran away together without hesitation. This section can be said to be the heroine, the kind of review of love, and the original intention of pursuing freedom in her heart.
But ah, this freedom will not last long, freedom cannot be eaten as a meal, the heroine still has to return to her normal life, she has no turning back, and her abandonment of everything is actually only two weeks, or even shortened to one day once the conflict breaks out . And this free time is built on lies.
I think this heroine is actually very contradictory and timid. She is not as pure and brave as this hero. But ah, it was also because of the existence of this heroine that the hero took the first step bravely, and suddenly felt that the power of love is really special. But then it immediately changed.
That is, after the two of them quarreled on the island, the heroine woke up alone from the bed, and I once felt that the hero committed suicide. It's mainly the movie. Before this part, what was shown was that the power of love is very powerful and important, and the male protagonist is a little paranoid. I really thought he was going to commit suicide.
But the male protagonist did not commit suicide, but lived a good life. The transsexual is getting better and better, very elegant and beautiful. It feels like overthrowing the idea that love is above everything else constructed before the film, and starting to construct an idea of individual freedom, in other words, freedom that is not tied to love.
Especially at the end, the two of them were going to quarrel in the tavern, but they restrained themselves, and then they each fled each other very tacitly.
Is love already like this? run away from each other? But it can still be seen that they once fell in love with each other, at least it can be seen that they have a tacit understanding.
Love is sincere and precious, and life is more valuable. If it is for freedom, both can be thrown away.
It's just that this movie is a bit long.
