Incest has always been a taboo topic, but no matter in the West or China, it exists between people and gods in the earliest myths, and even relies on incest relationships to thrive. Going to Freud, he put sexuality at the center of his theory, and as a man of psychosis, he was naturally interested in strange phenomena like incest. Freud liked to form gangs and form his own team during his lifetime, so his theory had a great influence. How big is it? In the past few years, when Wenqing was not a derogatory term, when young literary and artistic young people wanted to talk about sex and have sex with girls, they basically took Freud's theory from Sartre or Dostoyer. Fsky pretended to be a deep transitional topic. Of course, today's young people no longer need such a roundabout transition. But some concepts of the old gentleman are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, such as the "Oedipus complex".
The relationship between a man and his mother is very delicate. Many times they may have a relationship like a lover, but this intimate lover relationship can only be a psychological dependence. Many people think that men like to find a wife who is like their mother, but empirical research shows that most men do not think so. If the lust of the flesh is mixed in, it is obviously incest. The relationship between Haarlem and the two women in this film is incest.
No matter how his stepmother came into his life, she always wanted to be his and his sister's replacement. In this way her place in this home is complete and proper. But for whatever reason, a woman having sex with her father first and then with her son (with an obvious interlude, happened?), is an incest. I remember that in junior high school, a physiology and hygiene textbook taught us: masturbation is harmful to the body, we should focus on learning and meaningful things, and try to tie your hands to the head of the bed before going to bed at night. If you think about something during the day that makes you feel physically, think about something else right away, like your mother. The effect of this method is very obvious. In "Friends", there are also many bridges showing that the image of the mother appears in the son's sex life and has a heavy blow to the man. It can be seen that if the mother is associated with sex, and there is still a physiological response, it must be an abnormal psychological and physiological state. So, Hallam, how do you feel about peeping at someone who is like your mother and having sex with someone else, and having a strong physical reaction in front of her?
Everyone's growth has to experience confusion and confusion, spiritual wandering and lonely thoughts; the lack of maternal love also needs other feelings to replace. But such feelings should not be replaced by some vague and sad voyeurism that wanders between motherly love and the allure of sexual maturity. Is the director a follower of Freud? Does he believe that the key to the growth of boys into men is sexual exposure? And this sex does not care whether it is deformed and morbid? Haarlem's upbringing, at least in the film, is tightly bound by a morbid longing for his mother and all kinds of bizarre sexual relationships. The opening is a peeping in the woods; followed by an inexplicable insertion of his stepmother; peeping a third person like his own mother cheating with a married man, and claiming that he wants to have sex with her the most. Some might say that if the simple plot didn't feel so uncomfortable: it's just a teenager who just lost his mother in puberty, you know, a lot of things come together. But we have all seen Sophie Marceau's "Fang Fang", there are also youthful voyeurism and sex, why is there no morbid love? So from the very beginning, the director didn't want to tell a naive story with many shadows growing up, he just wanted to tell a special case: there is such a strange boy who lost his mother, he has a sad growth story, There is something special about his sexual identity, and a little bit off the track of normal ethics. I think this story is okay. With more nudity scenes, it can make a good movie, what do you think? Well, if you happen to be moved by this alternative aesthetic temperament, then Mr. Freud must be very happy. This thing in people's minds is really what he said, and there are vivid cases everywhere.
The so-called pathological and abnormal, and their obvious counterparts are the normal and the normal. It used to be said that homosexuality is a sexual perversion. Later, I found that some people are born that way, so they are not "perverted". At the same time, homosexual behavior is also common in the animal kingdom. This kind of thing has become the norm, at least you are physiologically Can't say people are perverted. Others have come forward and said that homosexuality is not acceptable. The primary purpose of sex is reproduction and reproduction. It is obviously unreasonable that homosexuals cannot have children. This is an obvious counterpoint error: first of all, it is called reproductive capacity. Apparent reproduction is a physiologically objective possibility, but not a necessary physiological requirement. At the same time, as mentioned earlier, homosexuality does not correspond to a biological Sickness; secondly, sex is not just a physiological instinctive activity, sex gives more social and even aesthetic value in human relationships. Therefore, whether homosexuality is normal or not should mainly be placed in social relations, and it depends on the understanding and tolerance of the whole society towards them. Let’s go back to the matter of incest. First of all, it has been suppressed by modern medicine physiologically. Inbreeding will inevitably cause potential danger to the health of living organisms, which seriously violates the basic laws of species evolution. Destroying, replacing the former, more basic and more stable kinship relationship with the latter, is a disturbance and a threat to the entire human ethic structure.
It could be making a fuss or playing some sort of vindicator role. Although I strongly support the freedom of artistic creation, I know that, like philosophy, it truly reflects the spiritual condition of our time. However, the director of this film uses a small and fresh style to use the lonely psychological process of a wandering teenager to splicing popular erotic gimmicks to satisfy his so-called artistic ambitions and deformed desires, which is really unacceptable.
