There are two official posters for Park Chan-wook's "Miss", one for the preview and the other for the release.
The official poster at the time of the screening revealed the plot: The perverted uncle (the old man on the left) controlled the young lady with a leather gloved hand, and the fake earl held the maid with one hand and the "Miss" with the other, while the lady was wearing The flesh-colored gloved hands clasped the maid's fingers, and the young lady was in the middle of the screen, with an expression of indescribability.
The poster of the trailer reveals the style. A few cherry trees, a man (fake earl) hesitating under the tree, a woman's body hanging, a maid holding an umbrella to accompany the lady for a walk, and an old slave reading a book with his uncle (yellow) Book), two naked women are doing shy things... a thick Ukiyo-e style.

Ukiyo-e is an art form that emerged during the Edo period in Japan, and it is also the quintessence of Japan.
Many masters have emerged in the field of Ukiyo-e, among which the most famous is Katsushika Hokusai. Katsushika Hokusai's paintings have had a great influence on the European painting world. Van Gogh, Gauguin, Manet, and Degas have all admired him and copied his paintings. He is also the only Japanese selected as one of the "100 Celebrities Who Affected the World in the Millennium".
This world-renowned "Kanagawa Surfing" is a painting by Katsushika Hokusai when he was 72 years old. This old man has been painting, moving, and changing his name all his life. The reason for his move is said to be because he never tidied up. He moved to a new house and continued painting when he painted a house and couldn’t put it down. One way of saying that he changed his name is to say that he When I draw a pen name, I sell the name for money. The old man lived to 90 years old and painted to 90 years old, modestly and arrogantly said, if I give me another ten years of life, I will become a real painter.
Since Katsushika Hokusai is engaged in the Ukiyo-e business, of course he must be ashamed of painting. When he draws pornographic paintings, he uses the pen name "Iron Rod Slippery", which is very erotic at first hearing. Among them, it is similar to "Kanagawa Surfing The famous masterpiece of the world of shame and shame is the same as "Aya and the octopus."
This painting is based on the legend of "Ogaki". The Dragon King stole the treasures that Japan welcomed back from the Tang Dynasty. A minister named Nakasuke Kanzu willingly took off his official uniform and went to the beach to lure a pearl plucking girl and gave birth to it. a son. When the child was 3 years old, he told the truth about the pearl plucking girl. For the future of her son, the pearl plucking girl sneaked into the deep pirates to return to the treasures. When they went out to the sea with the treasures, they were caught by shrimp soldiers and crabs and died. This subject is very popular in the Japanese art world because the woman is naked when diving, so the picture of carrying Baobao out of the sea is glamorous, and this glamour is not like the glamour of a prostitute, she has a maternal brilliance and a sense of sacrifice. In the evolution of the core of the story, the shrimp soldier crab will gradually become an octopus, and then it is finalized.
The octopus with the same theme painted by Hirakawa Hiroshi.

octopus is called Devilfish in English. It can be seen from the cultural context that people have attitudes towards octopuses.
The octopus’s smooth, sap-filled tentacles and the octopus’s habit of sucking shellfish have given octopuses an erotic and male genital intent. In most works of art, octopuses are a symbol of desire and violence. This kind of desire and violence is often accompanied by pornography.
Going far, returning to the movie "Miss", octopus plays an important role in the film "Miss", it is the foundation of the tone-suffocating desire.
The fake earl and the perverted uncle in the film met for the first time. He Zhengyu (fake earl) copied this masterpiece by Katsushika Hokusai while chatting with his uncle, and the two tacitly reached a tacit understanding (both Perverted erotic lovers).
"Miss" was practicing reading aloud with her aunt when she was a child, she read the word OMANKO, and the uncle suddenly rushed over and covered the faces of the lady and aunt with her hands wearing brown leather gloves. This picture is of octopus paste The intention to live.
And when the "lady" asked her uncle why her aunt didn't spit out her tongue as described in the book, and she was ugly to death, the perverted uncle took her to the perverted basement, and finally revealed that there was a huge in the basement. Octopus. It can be seen that the aunt was killed by the perverted uncle with a living octopus... This has become the deepest fear and shackles of the young lady.
There is a detail in the "Ama and Nymph" copied by He Zhengyu, which is enlarged in the movie, that is, the portrait of the lady turned into a lady, with her sapphire earrings hung. This may be an important reason why the young lady finally decided to escape, not to get out of one yoke and enter another yoke.

As the plot of "Miss" still has a big impact on the viewing effect, I am not going to spoil it. I wish you all a happy viewing.
