The ending of this "Common Guard Area" is fixed on this picture, as if God had predicted it long ago.
Park Chan-wook, who was born in philosophy, never relies on mystification and metaphysics to express the film, and his preaching seeps into the story.
This is a great, sad and direct-to-human story about human nature.
This is a kind-hearted Rashomon at the intersection of North and South Korea. I suddenly thought of a poem by Han Dong, one of which is a line "What can we know about the Big Wild Goose Pagoda? We climb up, look at the surrounding scenery, and then come down." In fact, when we look at human nature and the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, too many metaphysical and false sublime hinder our thinking, what "people In the beginning, nature is inherently good", what is "human nature is evil, and good is hypocritical", in fact, we only need to "climb up, look at the scenery, and then come down" to understand.
Sergeant Oh of North Korea risked his life to rescue Sergeant Lee, a South Korean soldier trapped by landmines, who had left the team, and they became good friends due to the jokes of North Korean soldier Yoo Jin. Pulled in, this is the good side of human nature. Due to different wars and political systems, they stand in different positions, but after all, they are a nation, a species, and it is an instinct to save their own kind.
Tragedy happened at the last meeting they expected. The intrusion of outsiders shattered this happy, carefree small group. The male sergeant instinctively killed the North Korean sergeant who broke in by accident, and almost frantically killed his own. Good friend Youzhen, he abandoned Sergeant Li and fled first, and Sergeant Li subconsciously pushed the first shot of his friend to Sergeant Nan. In fact, there can be no standard for the good and evil of human nature. Park Zanyu is undoubtedly the best to deal with this problem. The good and evil of human nature are actually the game between the subconscious and morality of one thousandth of a second in his heart. Lloyd said that this is not something that civilization can absolutely control, so the good and evil of human nature are by no means an attribute, but a dynamic product of a game.
This is a tragic film about morality and ideological kidnapping
, and it magnifies social problems. Why do good friends who are close as brothers kill each other from the same ethnic group? Why is there another war?
This seems to be a complex question that cannot be answered at all. In fact, in short, this is the role of morality and ideological kidnapping.
I remember a certain economist said, "If you have rights, you have obligations." To be protected by a group or country, you must be obliged to maintain the honor of this country. From the most powerful point of view, this is absolutely true. In the eyes of North Korea, South Korea is an enemy, whether it is a brother or a clan. There are many examples of this kind of collective kidnapping of individual thoughts, and the most helpless thing is that if a person wants to live in an upright world, he must be kidnapped by this kind of kidnapping. From the settlement of primitive people and the establishment of the country to today, this This kind of kidnapping has become an important symbol of group unity and division, and jumping out of this circle is undoubtedly a declaration of war on the entire human civilization. Therefore, tragedies will still occur, wars will still occur, and people will continue to become more and more imperfect because of the system.
At the end of the film, Sergeant Li's suicide with a gun is undoubtedly an individual's helpless admission of defeat to the system. With the improvement of the social and institutional machinery, people are becoming more and more like a machine. Under its prosperity, people are becoming more and more difficult. Get out of this machine.
