It's not so much a suspenseful action movie, it's a love movie, or a more appropriate emotional movie. This film inevitably reminds people of Hai Yan's positioning for his works: to use the skin of police and criminals, and to pack emotional stuffing. This film also seems to have the color of the case. On the surface, it is about a case, and it is a case about a serial killer. The only feature is the addition of the so-called "face blindness" element (about this face Blindness will be discussed later), the final case has been solved and the murderer is relatively hidden (for senior suspense horror movie fans, it may be far from hidden and unexpected), but in essence the most What moved me was the emotional element in it, forbearance, suddenness, and sensibility. The male and female pig's feet have just overcome all kinds of difficulties and obstacles together, but the male pig unfortunately died, leaving behind a sad and confused heroine, sad in the rain. Leaving (of course, this plot is also criticized by many fans), coupled with the interpretation of JM's deep eyes - all of them hit me straight - sorry, everything I'm going to say next may be more catering to women's tastes, men's You can leave directly. I think the summary of a bean friend in the film review is also in place. The bright line is the suspense and the case is solved, and the dark line is the emotional line of the hero and heroine.
The original English name of the film is Faces In the Crowd, which literally translates as "faces in the crowd". If you want to highlight its suspenseful qualities, you can translate it as Phantom Tracking as you see it now, which is not too far off the mark. I want to highlight its emotional qualities, why should I translate it, I'm sorry, I really haven't thought about it, but I just recite English in my mouth a few times: Faces In the Crowd, it feels endless aftertaste!
Immediately turned around to look at the person beside him, both familiar and unfamiliar. Why did we choose her/him among the vast crowd in the first place? The face that once moved us so deeply is now a source of calm and dullness. After having survived the seven-year itch, there was no more affectionate glances, and no more adrenaline hitting the top of the head, and even the occasional passion has become a routine to appease each other. Once we pretended to look casually in the crowd, and when we found that face, our hearts would speed up and our blood would surge. Today, this face has hardly changed, but we turn a blind eye, and often cannot find each other in the crowd, even I didn't even know it when I passed by, how similar the symptoms are to the female pig's feet with "face blindness"!
"Facial blindness" is not so much a kind of organic disease as it is a kind of psychological disorder. For example, when the female pig's feet was discharged from the hospital, the doctor told her that if your symptoms persisted and did not go away, please see a psychiatrist. I understand that the female protagonist's face blindness is caused by trauma to the brain on the one hand, and on the other hand, she has lost the ability to recognize faces because of the huge mental stimulation after witnessing the murder scene and the real face of the murderer. In her eyes, It's not that you can't recognize someone's face, it's that everyone's face is constantly changing. I originally understood this plot as a bug, but after thinking about it, I can't call it a bug. It should be said that for female pig feet, eyes Every time she closes her eyes and opens her eyes, she sees a stranger, just to show her feeling that every time she sees a stranger, the director uses the method of changing actors to deal with it, so in the eyes of the audience, they also experience a strange feeling. The feeling of constantly changing faces to make them unrecognizable. But in fact, the female pig's foot's vision is not damaged, she still sees the same face, but in her impression, this face has never been seen before, just like "a new person". When we look at the people around us, their faces have never changed, and even their personalities, identities, backgrounds, and behaviors have hardly changed. What has changed is our own heart. Some people always complain that they have been with another partner for a long time, she/others are old and yellow, and they no longer love them, so even if she is always beautiful, even if you always see a different face, you will experience something new every day Will you love it? If the heart no longer loves, even if she/he changes in a thousand ways, it still does not love.
Is there a way to make my heart unchanging and sing a song "My Heart Will Eternal"? The answer is yes, yes! That is, just like Jack and Rose in Titanic, Brother Bao and Sister Lin in Jia's house, when they just ignited the fire of love, they quickly retreated, and one party completely left the yin and yang, so their hearts will always stop at the most beautiful and peak one. In an instant, unforgettable. Otherwise, both sides will be completely caught up in firewood, rice, oil and salt, live normally ever after. Only what is lost is the most precious. However, after a lover leaves, there will still be a new lover. No one will stick to something that no longer exists. It’s just that memory is not like love. It will disappear over time. There is still a new love with a new lover, not a repetition of an old one. Or like the famous Smith couple, come to the field to fight heartily, the two of them survived the disaster, the Phoenix Nirvana, the two newcomers who were reborn, will also experience the feeling of heartbeat again.
I believe many people will ask, is there anyone she can definitely recognize? Like your parents and children? The film answers this question, arranging for her to mistake her father for a killer, so what about the child? As a new mother like me who has not been upgraded for a long time, I may have such questions even more. The film also answers this question. The narration of the female pig's feet explained that only her true love will remain the same when it is serious. As in the first half of the film, in the eyes of the female pig's feet, even the real boyfriend's face is constantly changing, but only the male protagonist's face remains unchanged, so she regards the male protagonist as the real life that can pull out her own sword of purple haze Son of Heaven. It's just that after the male protagonist shaves, everything ceases to exist, and the female pig's feet finds out that he has obvious features such as a long beard, which causes her to recognize it correctly every time, rather than some nonsense such as the real son of the heavens. . Before the final death of the male protagonist, facing the pale confession of the female pig's feet with a little pity, he answered very rationally: You don't love me, I'm just another face in the crowd. The sadness at this time is real, but whether it is true love is debatable.
Because the male protagonist lost his life, the ending was not a happy ending, but after all, it avoided firewood, rice, oil, salt, and many practical problems, so I think it is also ideal. In the end, the female pig's feet moved to the town where her lover lived in her childhood, and became a mother, becoming the mother of a little girl, and explained that this was the seed sown after the only one night of passion, and it was a continuation of the lover's bloodline. And the strange thing is that her daughter's face will never change in her eyes. Even if she is hard to recognize in the mirror, her daughter's face has miraculously remained the same. The heroine monologue said, this is love! Only the face of love will never change, in other words, only her true love will never change in her mind. This just confirms that sentence, only maternal love is absolute true love, without any controversy, without a trace of impurities, and without any suspense, and there will be no changes. Every time I put my arms around my daughter's small body, I feel a similar electric current rushing through my body. I know very well that this is still the effect of hormones, but as a mother, the hormones can be secreted forever, unlike in love, only 30 months only.
Passion is over after all, but maternal love can be eternal. Probably this is the reason why human beings strip off the gorgeous literary coat for love and restore the essence of living organisms.
