Nana tilted her head and said, I think we are always responsible for what we do, we are free.
Take responsibility for her actions and words, and on the surface, I think Nana did it. Just as Nana chooses to leave her body to others and her soul to herself, it is her responsibility for her own soul. She peeled off her outside as a salesperson, then she peeled off her inside as a prostitute, and finally Nana was herself. She has enough courage to choose freedom and take responsibility for herself. She thinks and practices at the same time. She pays more attention to actions than words.
I love the scene where Nana talks to the philosopher, the description of language and love, yelling "Jesus Christ! I love Godard!" with Yang Yang in the dorm room.
In fact, I actually agree with the thoughts in it. The fragmented plot and the slow movement of the camera really made it difficult for me to concentrate. I was immersed in it until the last poem and dialogue, and observed Nana's two big, deep eyes.
The reason why I am so excited is actually.... This philosopher can be said to have exactly stated what I was thinking and gave a solution.
I was also discussing this matter with Yangyang today. We all have a sense of awe for language, or we all feel that some words are too heavy to express. For example, she is reluctant to say words such as "I miss you" and "I love you" directly. We seem to feel that the sense of responsibility attached to these words is too heavy, and these words are too expensive, so that we are reluctant to pick them up.
I call this "language perfectionism", we look at Nana, her behavior and language are the same, but in fact Nana doesn't feel that way, because we can't know her thinking activities, we can only infer from the dialogue and expressions , Nana has a strong "perfectionism" for the unity of thinking and language. So at the beginning of the conversation with the philosopher, she said, "It's odd. Suddenly I don't know what to say; it often happens to me. I know what I want to say. I think about whether it is what I mean. . But when the moment comes to speak, I can't say it.”
Say and want to say correspond to outside and inside. The person behind want to say and in the identity of a prostitute inside is the identity of Nana, the real Nana. This is the "self" that Nana has been searching for. Nana thought that being a prostitute meant that she had achieved her own freedom, to be herself, but when she danced uncontrollably among the three men and saw them avoid indifferent eyes, I think Nana was disillusioned and suspicious. Therefore, Nana has fallen into a state of nihility in terms of expression, whether in language or inwardly. Nana, who has pushed aside the Russian nesting doll, has not achieved unity, and more of it feels the betrayal of her language and identity. We see that she has a strong demand for perfection of language, identity and self, so she said: "Why must one always talk? Often one shouldn't talk, but live in silence. The more one talks, the less words mean ." She sees the split between expression and self as a betrayal, and as I said earlier, she has a sense of responsibility between the two. That's why, she mentions language later, arguing that there is a risk of lying.
Philosophers answer this in an existential way. this is life. We have to wander between silence and language. A person who learns to speak well must experience a complete abandonment of life. Because of despair and disillusionment, a sense of division, outside, inside, and self, is born when we are wary of language. Only then can we constantly wander between language and thinking to achieve a balance between superior life and elementary life, which is life.
And this sense of division is not the same as division. The word "feel" is very important. Because thinking and language can only be grasped in an instant, the two themselves are glued together and cannot be distinguished.
So we can only accept mistakes, because in mistakes, we may just be chasing and not finding the right language. "Lies too, are part of our quest." There is also a search for truth in mistakes.
Backdoor Nana and the philosopher talked about love again, Nana asked the philosopher, shouldn't love be the only truth, there is a sentence I agree with, "Love would always have to be true. Do you know anyone who knows at once what he loves? No. When you are twenty you don't know. All you know are bits and pieces, you make arbitrary choices.”
This is what I said to Yangyang today, love has always been, have to be, should be true, which we agree with, but if we are sensitive enough, we will find that love is nothing but a mixture of vanity, pity, A complex mix of admiration, déjà vu, and sensory experience, we include a lot of mistakes and lies when we say "I love you." And if these mistakes are not accepted, we will be silent and shy.
But we have to accept that because we are going to live. We know that love should be true, so when we face these mistakes, we will better practice, work, search, solve, and act to prove and convince ourselves that our love is close to true, "That's why love is a solution, on condition that it is true.”
I'm thinking, yes, I have to admit that I'm constantly persuading, hypnotizing, loving people, maybe because I use those words to describe myself that make me seem insincere. But no one can tell how they love someone. In my opinion, "persuasion" and "hypnosis" are states that better express my love, and they are no different from causative words.
I let myself in love just because I know I want to balance myself, I have to fall in love with someone who is more balanced, but do I really have such a strong purpose when I love? Maybe not.
So I suddenly understood that Nana's final death was a kind of renunciation, a struggle for division. This is Nana's free will. So similar to the death of Joan of Arc before, "God knows our path, but we understand it only at the end of the road!" Nana is free and brave, at least in the end, she is willing to jump to realize herself, in the destruction Also being reborn.
