What a movie! The religious metaphor of Jesus' death, the materialism of the upper class, and the emptiness and decadence of the human heart.
The three-hour movie is not lengthy, like a long narrative poem of images. The life of the male protagonist flows slowly on the screen. Through the large and small branch plots, it depicts the male protagonist from silence to struggle and then back to silence. Along the way, he met too many people, such as dancing girls in nightclubs, roadside prostitutes, gorgeous American actresses, girlfriends who relied on and control him, rookies in the film industry who were single-minded, rich families immersed in joy Female, clear and bright restaurant girl•••••• In addition to all kinds of women, there are friends who are happy and perfect in his eyes but suddenly commit suicide, the same romantic but not close old father, including the star who has been pestering him to take pictures However, the male protagonist did not know them from the beginning to the end, and even his biological father was so strange and alienated.
The climax of the film is the suicide of his friend. The actor once expressed his envy for his friend. In his heart, this friend has met a lot of people, has a happy family, and has money and status. Man, but chose to shoot two children and then commit suicide, giving everyone a blow to the head. Only then did the male lead realize that he had never really understood this friend. The police asked him if he knew the reason for his friend's suicide, and he replied: "Maybe it is Because of fear”—a friend’s inner fear of himself and the outside world. It is worth mentioning that the film repeatedly depicts reporters who are chasing after the public figures for the purpose of filming the privacy of public figures. In front of the camera, people's privacy is exposed. This kind of record is almost dehumanizing. , the reporters are still trying their best to point the cold machine in their hands at the woman's face, and scramble to take pictures of her sad and desperate expression, so as to report and sell it for profit. As a result, these left an indelible mark in the male protagonist's eyes and heart, pushing and pulling bit by bit, which eventually led to the almost crazy and absurd resistance at his party.
The beginning and end of the film match each other, and the film begins to take the audience into the scene with a five-minute aerial shot. The statue of Jesus overlooks the people on the ground. The solemn statue invades people's lives and breaks the tranquility on the surface. The girl in the bikini asked, "What statue is this, and where is it sent?" The church bell rang, and the film entered the topic. The woman at the beginning of the film didn't know what the hero was talking about, just like the hero at the end didn't understand the little girl's gestures. When she saw this, she suddenly burst into tears, and the little girl waved goodbye to him. The life in the hero's heart has left him. He's gone, maybe he doesn't know what he's after.
After an extremely absurd feast, the movie ended, the poem ended, people walked out of the house in various gestures, and the male protagonist also ushered in his curtain call, leaving only a piece of chicken feathers in the house. The people in the carnival saw Dawn and the strange fish, but they laughed and said, "The fish is dead, but the eyes are still staring."
(Finally, the film depicts "Sylvia" so beautifully, with a frown and a smile, she is extremely sexy, charming, charming and charming, interviewed, dancing, learning to bark, teasing cats, playing in the fountain, No matter which plot, it is so beautiful that it makes people's hearts rip! Although it is short-lived, it has created a film history classic.)
