The first time I watched Pedro Almodovar's film, I downloaded a "Broken Embrace" before, and I haven't watched it for a long time after I put it on my hard drive. . The first feeling of opening the player is - this TM is not Kubrick! Almost obsessive-compulsive-like clean and restrained picture, there are no unnecessary elements in it, and the soundtrack that can drive emotions, it seems that I heard a Keren Ann song in it, it is a bit confusing for a moment, and quickly pause to see if it is iTunes or not. Careful opening or what. . . According to the traditional thinking of heavy oral films, it should be the limbs and blood organs flying all over the sky, or all kinds of people who are disgusting by the pictures, such as the long list of "human centipedes". . But this film uses another way to express the most extreme violence. For example, the doctor in the first 4/5 of the film is a god-like existence, genius, calm, and active. When transforming the human body, there is no scalpel. The picture of the cut body, but the needle tube, the centrifuge, the liquid nitrogen, the mannequin. . . After "XX formation", he told Vincent lightly, and then placed a shaper on the table to tell him the details of the use. . The victim hardly screamed or resisted, and silently accepted this fact.
I wrote a recommendation to the school about this, and found that there are quite a few people who have seen it, but it seems that many people, especially girls, seem to only think that it is "stirring". . . And after reading it, I felt a deep fear and confusion, where is the boundary of gender? What is the difference between dependence and trust and deception caused by the entanglement of spirit and body? A while ago, I read a few books by Li Yinhe with pure curiosity. They mentioned the origin of homosexuality. It was very popular in ancient Greece, and places like bathhouses were places for promiscuity, and women were not allowed to enter at all. . . . . There is also Plato's "spiritual love" that has been circulated wildly on the Internet. In fact, it does not mean what we think at all, but in ancient Greece, the form of teaching is almost like this: an adult "tutor" teaches a little Zhengtai knowledge and Be a man, and Xiaozheng relies too much on the flesh to repay. . I have not studied Li Yinhe's theory. . . I don't know how credible it is, but it does give people a new perspective. . I remember reading Freud when I was a junior in high school, and it boiled down all the formation of human psychology to a broad sense of "sex", which he called "libido". For example, don't think that the concept of sex is only available after adolescence. Its physical meaning, in our babies, chrysanthemum is actually an exciting part that can be stimulated. . .
Going back to this film, the concept of gender is how our bodies change after the age of ten? The film gave contradictory explanations. At the beginning, the doctor operated on Vincent as calmly as he was facing the object. The "XX operation", "raised chest", "artificial skin graft", the doctor seemed to complete a work of art. To change the gender, and then touch his own creation and say, well, the operation was successful; the skin is softer than I thought; ... and then the routine every night is to observe the near-perfect body through the camera. No one knows at what moment the feelings were generated, whether they were seduced by the body that he had transformed or the thoughts of his deceased wife, but at least they could see when the feelings broke out. The role of the "tiger" introduced in the play was surprisingly strange, and suddenly appeared, allowing the doctor to understand his inner emotions, and then. . let it be. . and. . A man who began to transform for revenge. . fell asleep. .
As for Vincent or Vera, I think he is the most interesting character in the story. He has endured so much in silence. From the transformation of his body to the transformation of his personality, it seems to me that he has finally accepted his female identity. And he also loves his own body. I think he/she really wants to live with the doctor at some point, until she sees the photo of herself and remembers that she is still waiting for her mother. . .
The film is over, but many questions are already stuck in my mind. This society has changed. When men not only need to rely on their bodies to feed the weak and the strong, masculinity may no longer be a widely admired virtue. "Wang Xiaojian" have become mainstream; Being able to be alone, the male lead outside the female lead will become more and more untenable. More and more feminine men; tomboy-like women. . Maybe the future is really as Da Liu predicted in "Three-Body Problem 3". . . . . .
