Anna's sense of alienation, her unease and contradiction. She is a neurotic, somewhat crazy woman. Perhaps it is her sobriety that makes her and Claudia good friends, the two most prominent female characters in the film. When Claudia expressed the morally strong unease and guilt she felt about her relationship with the male lead, the male lead said, "I've never seen a woman like you before, to figure everything out." Claudia: " I just want to see everything clearly." It is a true portrayal of the indifference of other people (the protagonist's upper-class friends) to this tragic event and the implicated, and their constant pursuit of novel experiences. The scenery everywhere in the film is breathtakingly beautiful, but the hero and heroine are alienated from such an environment. Magnificent scenes always place a small character in a quarter of the edge of the screen, making him think about his own thoughts and have no sensory interaction with the scene, making him seem alienated and confused. Gives Claudia the most long shots of scenes looking for Anna around the island, these silent searches reveal great confusion. After falling in love with Sanders, Claudia wishes one more heroine to return. Layer meaning: I hope that Anna will come back, prevent this guilty love from causing more serious consequences, and prevent what will happen. Anna actually represents a fulcrum, a fulcrum that allows Claudia to decide what is right and what is wrong, and Anna's return can prevent her from choosing the wrong. Anna, who doesn't know whether she died or not, is a soul interrogator who is barely there. It's wrong to be with the male protagonist. It's wrong to hope that Anna will die to reduce her guilt, and it's wrong to get rid of the pain of guilt. , everything is wrong. After Anna disappeared, Sanders said to Claudia: "She doesn't seem to care about the love expressed in words. Our love, my love, your love, her father's love." Combined with what Anna said at the beginning, "A month apart, the relationship will fade." Perhaps Anna's performance of the male protagonist as the constant pursuit of novelty is empty. I can see clearly the same temperament of other people in the upper class, and think that the love that is spoken is often a lust that arises from the moment, more or less just a show, even if the truth is revealed, it is very short-lived and cannot stand the test of time, so it is not necessary. Believe in "love expressed in words". At around 1:40, the super-beautiful Claudia was stared at by all the men on the side of the road very blatantly. When the male protagonist came out of the building, Claudia immediately turned around and entered a convenience store to avoid the male protagonist. This scene seems to imply that Claudia clearly sees the essence of the male protagonist's fascination with her as a gaze full of desire and novelty, and thus cannot stand it. The male protagonist catches up, and Claudia expresses very anxiously that she thinks it is shameful and humble, and feels that "if you say I love you, I will believe it, and I will want you to promise all kinds of things". Pain, that is, being ashamed of the desire and possibility of self-deception, that the whole thing is absurd. The male protagonist said, "Absurdity is better. Absurdity means that this is something we can't control." This way of defense shows that the male protagonist is a rootless person and is willing to be pushed by instinct, which is similar to Claudia truth-seeking contrast. On the clock tower, the image of the male protagonist is suddenly full of emotions. The truth is only presented when encountering difficulties. If the male protagonist thought that Anna really encountered a shark, he swam to her without hesitation. Claudia finally decided to accept the male protagonist after facing her inner contradictions, guilt, and pain for a long time. The male protagonist never faces the torture of his conscience, nor does he resist the temptation of prostitutes. It can be said that he speaks "love" lightly without paying any price. On the clock tower, the male protagonist was very emotional and a little gloomy when facing the exquisite and beautiful city, and told Claudia about his designer experience and regrets. This scene on the clock tower enriches the image of the male protagonist. Impressed, Claudia said, "I think you can create beautiful things." He said, "Who needs beautiful things today? How long do they last? They took countless centuries to build, but will How long will it last? Ten years? Twenty years? Who knows?" Then he proposed to Claudia, who at this moment may be sincere, thinking that Claudia is beautiful, the two of them are beautiful in love, and they look like each other. The marriage is beautiful. Claudia was also moved, and this was the opportunity for her to fully accept the male protagonist. On the clock tower, when Claudia was facing the entanglement of the proposal, she was saying "I want to see everything clearly" when she accidentally rang the bell, and the opposite clock tower responded with a bell, and she forgot The entanglement just now was thrown into this novel experience. piece In the book, I tried my best to portray the heroine's sensitivity to "whether it is true or not", and used many details to show that the "love" of the hero to the heroine is actually different at different times and occasions. There are "really love" At times, there are times when it is "just lust", and times when it is "inadvertent"... and the switching between love and non-love is very fast, the audience can experience the short-lived "sincere love", but that It is true love indeed. The male protagonist deliberately knocked over the 23-year-old's ink bottle, soiled his sketches, and after returning to the hotel, he vented his lust to Claudia. This city evokes the memory of the male protagonist's experience and pursuit of beauty when he was young. He overturned the ink bottle because he was jealous of the youthful youth and sensitivity to beauty. These complex emotions finally turned into an outlet for lust, showing that his heart was already corrupted. , like a rotten apple, the only way he could imagine to resolve his emotions was to cater to instinct, lust and the pursuit of novelty. The artist in the film painted all nude women. The female partner asked him "why are all women", and he replied "there is nothing more lovely than a woman". It symbolizes that "the satisfaction of lust and novelty" has become the only need. In the final ending, the male protagonist and the prostitute were found by Claudia and cried regretfully. (The prostitute was exaggerated because of her beauty and unique personality. It attracted all the male onlookers, and was surrounded by enthusiastic crowds and reporters like stars), Claudia hesitated again and again, and finally raised her hand and stroked the male protagonist's hair, comforting him, and I don't know whether to express forgiveness. Maybe more of pity, pity for him and for myself. It is the peace of "I see" after stripping away the emotions of love and hate.
