I've been so busy that I don't even have time to watch movies, let alone write essays about watching movies. By chance, I saw this so-called 2008 American suspense and reasoning blockbuster "Perfect Stranger" on Yanzi. I have always liked suspense and reasoning movies or novels. Facing this kind of temptation , just put the work at hand again, down and watch it.
The plot unfolds between power and freedom, reality and the Internet, love and friendship. The protagonist, Xiao Luo (I forgot his full name), was suspended for reporting on a scandal involving a government official. The resentment, but unfortunately, the friend was bizarrely killed. In the face of the death of his friend, Xiao Luo and his colleague Xiao Qi (I also forgot her name, not her full name), who also had a crush on her, launched an investigation. Advertising Man", and this man named Hill was a giant in the advertising industry. The so-called investigation is to constantly spy on other people's privacy. Whether it is with the eyes of reality or the eyes of the Internet, Xiao Luo is the eyes behind the back. She discovered Hill's secret and her colleague Xiao Qi's. Secret, when Hill was found guilty as a murderer, Xiao Qi also discovered Ronald's secret.
Everything was directed by Ronaldinho, killing his friend and blaming the advertiser Hill. And the reason for all this is the eyes behind it. A long time ago, Ronaldinho's father tried to sexually assault him and was killed by Ronaldinho's mother. When his father's body was buried in the back garden, he was killed by the little girl in the neighbor's house - that is, Ronaldinho's friend - -See, when Ronaldinho's friend tried to use this to blackmail her a few years later, in order to avoid the gaze of those eyes, Ronaldinho designed all this and succeeded, but in the end, he was discovered by Xiaoqi.
He eliminated a pair of "eyes", but another pair of "eyes" staring at him appeared. They were also his friends. Faced with this difficult situation, Ronaldinho started to eliminate these "eyes" again, and everything seemed to be successful. Now, when Ronaldinho called for the police to come, he didn't find a man's eyes watching what he was doing behind a window in his neighbor's house.
In fact, the core of the story told in the whole film is the old saying, "A lie needs countless lies to make up" or "the fire cannot be kept in paper". Many things in the world are watched, whether the fixation is intentional or not, and some fixations may be forgotten, and some may be turned up again years later.
Countless people may read countless feelings or answers from this movie, but I read awe and fear from it. For the former, no matter what we do, we may be watched from behind and hide the truth. It is just an ideal, so we must fear and control our own devilish impulses; for the latter, it is a kind of fear, a fear of people's lack of security and privacy in society, especially in the current In the network society, there are countless eyes watching you, no matter whether you are a celebrity or not, it is possible that all of your things will become material for others to judge one day.
We can tell ourselves to be in awe, but can we avoid fear?
