Looking back, look at this bloody fairy tale (I prefer to use this translation name to call this movie), this is a bloody story in the cloak of a fairy tale. Before seeing this, many viewers have their own opinions on whether the hero and heroine in this movie have "love", but there are a few questions I want to sort out fundamentally: 1. No matter the American version or the European version of this movie, the protagonist has It's a man, not a man and a woman, and everyone can see the plot for themselves (don't fool yourself into thinking that the director set the vampire as a woman just because you didn't see the scene, this is a psychological comfort deception); 2. The vampire man has nothing to do with castration or not. However, in fact he is a man, just a man who has transformed into other biological species before he is mentally and physically mature, so, based on the principle of not necessarily being gay, what does Abby do to the boys he attracts? It may breed love. Of course, if some people insist on the subtle changes in their psychology after Abby's castration, or they themselves look like girls, there are all kinds of speculations, but this is something other than the movie; 3. From knowing Since owen, Abby has never deliberately concealed his difference, which means that Abby has deliberately revealed it to owen. Why? Aren't he afraid that his identity will be exposed and bring him danger? Actually, he won't, because he sees Owen's cowardly and lonely psychological characteristics; 4. If Abby loves Owen, why didn't he love the guy with glasses before? , why not turn that glasses man into a vampire at the right time, but let him grow old, become useless, and finally become her food? I think this is because of the need for more survival, so at the beginning of the movie, owen chanted the sentence: "eat a little and save a little", which echoes the theme of the whole story; 5. owen is indeed to abby Those who are attached, admire Abby's ingenuity, admire Abby's strength, and like Abby's cuteness and softness (this is exactly the same as Owen himself!) 6. There is a scene in the movie where Abby leaves in a car, but He suddenly appeared when Owen was being bullied, which only meant that he had been following Owen, waiting for a suitable opportunity to give Owen a psychological fatal blow. 7. When abby touched the glasses man, there was more pity in his eyes, pity for the road of no return that the man who was deceived and used by himself and led to the final tragic fate; and the glasses man said: "Don't say goodbye. That boy." It's actually compassion for his own destiny, not just jealousy, of course there's an element of jealousy, because he knows what's going to happen, he knows himself Will be abandoned soon, but he doesn't want anyone else going down the same path as him. But at the same time, he misses the beauty when he first met Abby. There is a scene, when Abby drives the glasses man out of the room in order to communicate with Owen through the wall, the glasses man holds the photo of the group photo... In an angry life, the beauty of the past is the driving force to support him to continue; 8. Overall, it can only show that the director set the American version of abby as a role only for survival, not out of love. The glasses man set in the original is actually a wretched pedophile, which makes abby in the American version actually different from the original. But the so-called love in the US version is at most the mutual need between Abby and Owen. Owen's spiritual attachment to Abby and Abby's need for Owen's realistic survival, each takes what he needs, and uses the bloody fairy tale color. Reality is the best way to describe it.
