They lock up their children in isolation and shape them in the direction they want. But can people be controlled? Has anyone completely figured out how the brain works? As if everything was out of control. When people who want to control other people's brains can't justify themselves and start contradicting themselves, they will definitely go in a direction they can't control. Licking the soundtrack to change the headband, only after the canine teeth fall, can the car go out the door, the male protagonist's walking posture, all kinds of games that seem absurd and incredible to us, and a theatrical performance that makes people numb. All the laws of this house are made by one man, and he doesn't seem to be a smart man. He doesn't have the ability to control this family. I don't know exactly what the motives and real purpose were, but from the conversation between Dad and Christina he meant that he didn't want them to grow into "bad guys". Language is the main weapon of the manipulator, but it is also the most error-prone link. The thinking required to build a language system is beyond imagination, even if it is only a small one, the same is true. At least in 1984, a whole government was doing this, and the parents in this movie would always backfire if they made up random words.
