Because "Lake Eden" and "Mystic River" have been mixed up before, SO, Mao did not watch this supposedly powerful horror film until yesterday. For the cat, the film is very exciting, but it is also a desperate and embarrassing film. It seems that the cat has accidentally watched a lot of films with this kind of tone recently, and maybe the cat needs to think about it. Is there any contact in China? . . .
Well, without further ado, let's take a look at the film. . .
In fact, the main line of the film is very simple. Kindergarten teacher Jenny and her boyfriend go to the beautiful Eden Lake for vacation together, but this trip has become their nightmare trip. The indifferent and noisy town, the rough and defensive people, and that A group of diabolical children - why villains again? Perhaps, in people's minds, children are innocent, just like what the film said at the end: "They are just children." It seems that children always feel innocent and innocent, but when children become demons , then perhaps the impact on us will be stronger? SO, the director is calm, when paradise is no longer a paradise (Eden - Eden), when children are not pure and kind (most people's point of view), then is the world sick? ? Or is it human nature? It is said that this video once circulated on the Internet, a video of the post-90s generation in Ukraine brutally killing innocent victims, but unfortunately the cat has never been able to find it, but in reality, we have also heard of the cruel behavior of many children. So, this is this A morbid embodiment of society or, or is this just human nature? Although Mao Mao believes that human nature is inherently evil, Mao Mao also believes that social life and good education play a role in regulating children's behavioral growth. Because children are always imitating their parents and the surrounding concepts and values of survival unconsciously, when SO, the father of the leader of the bad boys we saw in the film, Mao couldn't help but sigh, he really is an upgraded and enhanced version of the leader of the bad boys. .
In fact, at the beginning of the film, when the hero and heroine were on their way out, the radio broadcast on the car: "Learning to respect is an important issue in the last general election. Prime Minister Blair hopes to bring the idea of mutual respect back to the school and the community. Therefore, parents are encouraged to participate in how to The suggestion of parenting lessons has been supported by more and more parents." When the cat made remarks such as "solve your own affairs by yourself", the cat began to have a hunch that this film would take a human perspective. (Wanting to watch this film is purely a temporary intention, SO did not go through the background check) SO, Mao deliberately paid attention to the details during the later viewing.
In order not to affect everyone's viewing, please try not to touch the main storyline, let's take a look at some details. .
From the beginning of the film, it can be seen that the heroine is a kind and caring lady, and this is the viewing angle set by the director for us, because in most cases, they always think that they are also kind and caring. , SO we will also experience the heroine's inner feelings and changes step by step with the protagonist's experience, and finally achieve a strong psychological impact.
When the two protagonists just arrived in the town, the hero first found a parking space, but was preempted by a pair of parents later when he was about to park; in front of the town hotel at night, the heroine sighed: It's so late, these children Should have gone to bed! What followed was a rude rebuke of a mother to her child. (If you see this scene in reality, I believe many people have become accustomed to it, but in the film, it is somewhat awkward to feel from the heroine's point of view.); And the TV program broadcast in the hotel is full of violence , foul language, pornography so that the heroine has some criticism. From this we can also see that the heroine is indeed a very educated lady. But all this is but a prelude. Then, after encountering an unpleasant conflict by the lake, when the hero and heroine returned to the town and complained to the waitress in the town about their experience, the originally enthusiastic waiter immediately changed his face and said coldly, "That's not mine. Child! No!" This can't help but make the hero and heroine a little helpless, but it seems that this scene is so familiar to cats, because it seems that most people around us are used to and distance themselves from bad things. Relationships, especially parents of some children, are always reluctant to have certain problems, and even unrealistically have some good fluke thoughts about their children. In fact, this is also a kind of human nature for cats. Selfish!
And the protagonist's 2 escape opportunities in the film are also deeply chilling. Not long after the film started, the protagonist met a child in the forest. The heroine greeted him warmly, but the child just replied coldly: Mom won't let me talk to strangers. In the middle of the film, the boy encounters the escaped protagonist again, but under the protagonist's various requests for help, the boy still indifferently uses various excuses to refuse the protagonist to use his mobile phone to call the police for help; the indifference and selfishness are now reflected in the instinct of cowardice and self-preservation Afterwards, the protagonist encounters a man who is driving by, and it seems to be alive again. However, in the face of the embarrassed and seriously injured and frightened protagonist, the man asks to finish his own affairs before helping the protagonist. . . As a result, the protagonist is in danger again! ! !
The cat feels that the protagonist's encounter is not just caused by the mischief of a few villains. Just like the music playing in the town "Please believe us ain't ever gonna be respectable" How is a society without the minimum mutual respect different from the instinctive survival of animals? And it seems that most of us in our lives seem to believe in the words of the father of the head of the villain: "Let's take care of ourselves." That's enough. . Indifference and selfishness contribute to the development of violence and evil, while inappropriate educational methods and social influence are the source of violence. And then without proper intervention, it all becomes a vicious circle, and maybe everyone will be a victim one day.
