As long as the tricks hidden in the film stories in the Ossack Mountains of the United States are gently placed in the activities of human beings to set standards to protect the owners of the earth, you can see a clear game rule, no matter how complicated it is, no creature can escape. linkages in the food chain. In layman's terms, it has nothing to do with feelings, it is a balance between the so-called justice and the so-called darkness. The state machine is the judge who watches the fire from the other side. The weak and the strong, life and death, determine the direction of the emotional balance of countless spectators.
Let's just say that all the changes in "Winter's Bones", if there is no trouble of Rui's father's accidental disappearance, then the family survival crisis and the conflicts and struggles within the ethnic group may all be caught in another "dangerous" sweep. There is the disaster of the "ego", but the "new look" that has been completely uprooted has reorganized the poison cave that a large family has always controlled. Transform into another life and continue to be brutal. This is a hypothetical deduction.
In this way, local law enforcement officers are people’s trustworthy public servants, and in fact, such a feat of punishing individuals but certainly benefiting most is rare in reality. In fact, the movie has some clues that reveal the reality. The death of Rui's father resulted in temporary emergency money, part of which was handed over to Rui, and the executive actually admitted that they had withheld the part they deserved. Although it cannot be said that the "law" is incompetent, on the one hand it admits that it is temporarily unable to severely punish crimes and needs more time to collect evidence, while on the other hand it uses a cold and harsh attitude to deter the weak and powerless people.
Another possibility is that Ruorui's father was not silenced. Regardless of whether Rui's father betrayed his family, the entire drug-making system would not be destroyed (in fact, it would not be possible to completely take over the nest), and at most a few backers could be found to accompany him to jail. This is not the best, but the game will not be played in such a cruel and silent situation, nor will it torture the innocent three sisters Rui and their mother, and the result is nothing new, and it does not allow them to live a new life in the true sense. The robbing of the house not only shows the meaning of meticulous law enforcement, but also ridicules their unjust "kill the chicken to warn the monkey" method. Except for Rui's father, the three children tried by the law and the mentally ill mother are the weakest. Ordinary people.
In "Winter's Bone", I felt like I was totally on the Rui family's side, including Rui's father. Although he is an invisible character, he controls the pulse of the entire show. The general image of Rui's father can be determined from the behavior of Rui and his uncle "Teardrops". Tears told Rui that your father loves you very much, and his family is his weakness. Without you, he would not have come this far. What information does this reveal? "Extorting confessions that threaten family members?" "Family punishments to protect family members?"...
Later, another woman could see the image of a loving and righteous "lover". The woman told Rui that her father had a relationship with several Strange men together, but pretending not to know her, this should be the way to protect women, when he was in danger. As for the "Dolly family" that Rui is proud of, at first Rui faced the patrol officer with a defensive attitude, and said, 'It's all your accusations against him, but there is no evidence'; in the teardrop words, 'Don't tell Whoever I killed him, if I knew, I would be done' oath. You can see the stalwart of the invisible man. As far as the matter of selling drug cartels is concerned, they are actually taking the road of justice. It's just that life is always changing, and no one knows whether to pursue what they will get what they want.
Talking about these two assumptions, my contradiction is to point to a more powerful survival system and environment. As the face of modern civilization and the hub of business and economics, the metropolis is proud of the new era of urbanization, and is spoiled as a bright and splendid pioneer. It is sure to step on the page of history. Casting reinforced concrete into a machine monster with super appetite, overloading labor and satisfying the insatiable desire of human beings, it is necessary to have three heads and six arms to ensure that the anger that is always in a state of hunger does not jump. The endless cycle of export, and around it, what holds up its star status is the suburbs, countryside, mountain villages, and remote areas that modern people are infinitely longing for, all of which are waiting to grow and grow.
The meaning of this is nothing more than to express the ubiquitous law of human development. No corner is immune to the sweeping of the struggle for interests, and it will also lead to the worsening of the simple and backward regions. Like the words in the Korean drama "City Hall", as the little brother of the United States, the pragmatic action to please is to digest a certain amount of garbage for the big brother every year, poisonous and non-toxic. There is nothing to sigh, this is the family rule of the human family. If you want to protect the earth, unless you travel to the primitive, Master Tang said the word 'endurance' long ago, which means that the future will intensify.
And no matter how well-developed it is, there is no need for PK between the world's factories and Wall Street. The difference between blue and white is so different, it is clear at a glance, of course. Even if the land is connected with the same roots, the banner of "city drives the countryside" will still be flying. Except for the essence of civilization being sent to the countryside, I don't believe that there is no hidden dross. And in the barren wasteland of nature, sins must breed, similar to the cultivation of opium poppy to form a drug factory (winter's bones); the establishment of orphanages, the development of international trade in the sale of children (to find the starting point of happiness); the moral theory of "improved blood" , to realize the conspiracy to seize homes, undeveloped land (anti-rabbit fence), etc., as if it was the call of the right time and place.
As for the story background chosen by the movie "Winter's Bone", and the authenticity that the faithful life wants to show, it is exactly the opposite reality that is thrown at the city people's fantasy paradise. In the middle of the performance of "Winter's Bones", I fell into a crusade that was too ruthless and indifferent to the screenwriter, of course, blind and arbitrary. Although not about that background, but about the beliefs and ways of choosing how to live.
How much I wanted to blow the wind in the ear of the girl Rui and tell her the words of the Eastern Wisdom grandmother, "If the tree moves to death, the person moves to live." However, I also think of the Irish family who are pursuing the American dream, and Lilia, who has died in a foreign land. If life is cruel in its true form, where is it not life? Or as Grandpa said, "All changes in life, all charm, and all beauty are made up of light and shadow."
In short, whether the movie is about a family in a remote mountainous area in the United States, or a call led by children Trying to expand the depth of the theme, the connotation involved in the film is unexpected. The only thing that is not majestic enough may be the director's calm attitude that he is unwilling to discuss in depth. The story was told warmly and ended cleanly. But it leaves behind various vague remarks, not attacks on law enforcement agencies, but allusions to their resilient responses. With helpless compromise, it shows that "repressing violence with violence" is a means to maintain ecological balance. There are also heavy thoughts. Rui will not abandon the courage of her mother and younger siblings. When she admires, does she want to torture the whole society? Because Rui's underage younger siblings, the infant children of good friends, they need hope.
In the process of watching the movie, the large amount of natural light I felt leaked the delicate and emotional cognitive form of the female director, and inadvertently reached the realm of drama to reality. The several female characters she set up for the film, who are "helping in the snow", also aim to try to melt the hard ice of reality with a bit of warmth. Although "Qing" precedes "Li" in the present world, it cannot control the direction of Li, and the word Li is not as bright and translucent as the blue sky covered by the intertwined and towering trees.
