"Six Feet Under" (Six Feet Under) is a repressive American drama. With the strange background of a family funeral career, a mother and three children, according to the characteristics of American dramas with many people, strong clues and many clues, analysis and development of the psychological process of each family member's personal experience has become an important task for screenwriters. Because of that background, life and death has become a proposition that secretly touches every family member. This family used to have a cautious, sensitive and weird atmosphere. Everyone looked peaceful and fragile inside. They cared about the surface peace and rationality, and no one wanted to tell the truth, as if it would make them instantaneously collapse.
The eldest son, nate, this handsome blond boy, is one of the protagonists with the most pen and ink experience, and his personality does not have the shadow of a family atmosphere at all.
He is the person I hate most in this play.
Because he is a naive chaotic pauper without religious beliefs. Even though he left home at a young age and then switched careers, suffered from a rare congenital brain disease, was married twice, was the father of children born to two different women, and even had his virginity deprived of his virginity by an old woman. Old things, but in my opinion, those experiences didn't make his life special at all. He never grew up and achieved nothing. He was just a pauper who was born with a bare head and died with his head shaved. He didn't really care about anyone around him. Every time he made his choice was for his so-called confused heart, and for the normal and good feelings in his heart only at that moment. His moral code is to require others to observe morals, and his principle of doing things is to make him feel right. His forty years of life experience is full of ridiculous contradictions:
Nate felt that the family’s funeral business was not what he wanted to do, so he left home, and his father died and he returned but he was completely reluctant. Then he felt that dedication to the bereaved was his strength, and then he decided to take this The funeral home was sold, and then he obtained a license. He felt that it was his family’s business. He insisted on taking it back and fighting his business rivals to the end. Then he said that he loved his girlfriend Brenda and be engaged to her. Then he carried Brenda and his confidant Lisa and had children. Then he told Lisa that it was impossible to marry her without thinking about it, and then he found that Brenda was addicted to sex games with strangers and threw the engagement ring at her angrily. Then he had a major brain surgery as if he had realized life. Marrying Lisa believes that he loves Lisa and the child deeply, and then he accuses Lisa of making him no longer himself, and then he is helpless when Lisa goes missing and sleeps with a strange woman. Then he knows that Lisa is dead and feels very depressed. He was so perverted and decided to quit the funeral business, and then he started having sex with Brenda, and then he came back to continue running the family business and felt he loved Brenda, and then he was thinking about the unidentified dead Lisa. The dead are on par, and then he decides to marry brenda, and then he thinks it is impossible for him to really become a family with brenda this freak, and then he sleeps with other women in confusion, and then after the orgasm, a congenital disease broke out, and he finally had a cerebral hemorrhage .
Then, even before he died, he still had to tell the pregnant brenda seriously that he didn't want to be with her anymore!
When I saw this passage, I was angry, Lao Tzu, you think, you have to have the ability to live until that day! I gritted my teeth and sent him a sentence in Chinese, accumulate some yin virtue! When he finally died, I sent him a vicious sentence in English again, you deserve it!
It's not the screenwriter's intention to make this character so disgusting. Maybe this repetition is just to extend the serial season. Many cheats are just to seduce the audience. But as we have seen, absolute loyalty to one's heart leads to infidelity to others. The pursuit of absolute freedom has turned into absolute selfishness, and that's how odious. And the funeral family that was once restrained and repressed seems to be the opposite of Nate's moral code: endure reality, treat others with courtesy, avoid the heart, and indulge immorality towards oneself. So not only nate, but other people should also be disgusted. You shouldn't talk about the so-called principles of life, and stop masturbating with a ridiculous sense of moral superiority!
But nate has the hate of hurting others, and it is also valuable to be sincere to yourself. Just like every ordinary person in chaos and contradictions. I hate and sympathize with him, and I sympathize with the people he hurts.
I don't believe in morality and so-called correctness, but I hope to believe in truth, goodness and beauty. Only happiness and sadness, happiness and misfortune, everyone is the same.
