First of all, I declare that I am really not looking at "corruption"! ! After watching a lot of the noise of American TV series and the inexplicable nature of Japanese TV series, I really really just want to change my taste and enjoy the three episodes of British legends. I ended up watching one by one corrupt, watching "Sherlock" Yes, watching this "OK" Corpse Heart" is. The only difference is that Cuan Fu and the doctor are just doing petty ambiguous things, pulling little hands or something, while the handsome zombie guy and the zombie soldier brother in "The Walking Dead Meat Heart" are true love. Only later did I find out that the netizens of the Chinese dynasty also gave the country where the sun never sets an elegant name: the country of corruption. I snickered for a long time when I saw these two words, and silently made up my mind, go to the American drama that Nima will only roll the sheets, go to the Korean drama that Nima weeps and wipe away tears, go to the Japanese drama that the theme of Nima is inexplicable, love the corrupt and protect the corrupt general. The three-episode film of the corrupt country that has been carried out to the end is my destination! (Don't spray, fly yourself)
Actually, I never understand why people still discuss the relationship between Kieren and Rick after the first season of this show. I know a lot of people can't accept the premise that the protagonist is gay in a show they like, so they have all kinds of discussions and arguments that Kieren and Rick are pure friendship. One of the important ideas expressed: prejudice! It's the same prejudice against half-dead patients in the closed town in the play. Let's not have this kind of prejudice. The sexual orientation of the protagonist in a play does not hinder whether the play is good or not and whether everyone likes it.
Kieren and Rick's relationship is undoubtedly a romantic relationship, or at least Kieren's unilateral love for Rick. It can't be more obvious that the firm friendship will not write thousands of letters to friends who join the army without saying goodbye, and will not commit suicide in grief for those who died in battle. And all kinds of details: Kieren was excluded from the town because of his sexual orientation and refused to go to the bar, was teased as suitable for women's college, was forbidden to go to their house by the father he liked, Kieren has seen the photo of the two of them many times, and the two secretly dated The words "Ren × Rick 4ever" in the cave, as well as the dialogue between the two mothers, etc., can all prove that this is not ambiguous, this is love. (The chicken is frozen, please ignore it) The
above text is purely self-talk, please ignore it. (of madness)
About the name.
Of course, for me, a grade 9 handicapped in English, all I can see is the translated name (squatting in the corner and drawing circles). "The Walking Dead Flesh Heart", at first I felt that the translated name was difficult to read and easy to read wrong, and it was suspected of grandstanding. After watching the play, I found that the translators were not blind translations. It probably means that the protagonists in the text have zombie-like bodies. , but has a human soul, does not need to eat and drink, does not have the warm appearance of human beings, but expects to have the same life and treatment as ordinary people, live like ordinary people, and the protagonist Kieren has an unparalleled kindness. Bar. In fact, I think the name "Walking Dead Flesh Heart" is much better than the other simple and crude translation "Rebirth", which is in line with the style of the show with profound thoughts.
About race/ethnicity.
In fact, when I started watching the first episode and realized that the show was going this route, there were only two words that came to my mind: race/race. I thought it would be such a heavy topic, but it's actually not as heavy as I thought. Although it was not clearly pointed out in this play, it does not mean that this play does not involve the topic of "race". Half-mortal disease, no matter how dead, can be resurrected after death, infected by a virus, and become zombies after resurrection, preying on humans and eating human brains for a living. In fact, the zombies are not dead, they are just PDS (Partially Deseased Syndrome), part of the death syndrome patients. Through treatment, PDS can restore human thoughts and memories, but the body is like a zombie, with sickly white skin, eyes with out-of-focus pupils, and a body that does not eat or drink and only rely on drugs to maintain its immortality, and live like this for a lifetime.
Such a part of people, with different appearances and different ways of living, are classified by most ordinary people into the categories of "monsters", "dangerous" and "hatred". ) acts of discrimination against an alternative lower race/ethnicity. I remember watching an alien movie "District Ninth", which is also an alternative alien movie, under the guise of aliens, using the struggle of different planetary groups/groups to insinuate human race/ethnic conflict/conflict question. (Encyclopedia says that it alludes to South Africa's racial/apartheid/segregation policy/policy).
There is an interesting little detail. I watched "District 9" first, and I knew that the protagonist changed from a human who slightly discriminated against aliens, and finally became an alien. So when I saw Bill in "The Walking Dead" who hated the half-morbid patient brutally killed the half-morbid old lady and returned home and learned that his son, who had been dead for many years, had become a half-morbid patient, I was very interested in the following: How to expand. After reading it, I sighed that the screenwriter of the BBC is really not a vegetarian. Bill accepts the return of his son, and the family escapes the fact that Rick is half-dead, while still showing his discrimination and hatred of zombies and half-dead. This is a great development!
About prejudice.
Watching "The Walking Dead Heart", I believe everyone feels that the play implicitly implies that the townspeople reject gay plots. This gay plot seems to be irrelevant. In fact, what the screenwriters want to express is still about "prejudice" and "equality". Like the homosexual group, the semi-morbidity belongs to a minority group, and is considered to be an outlier and beyond the common sense. Not only that, there are similar conflicts in many places in the film, the rebellion of Kieren's sister Xiaojie, people in a small town ruled by religion have to attend religious meetings even if they don't want to, Kieren's actions and language every time he pretends to eat. Before Kieren died, he was excluded from the town because of his sexual orientation. He became a half-dead person and was still excluded when he returned to the town. This kind of prejudice permeates the entire play.
About inclusion.
If a zombie kills my relatives and eats his brain, one day the zombie will be cured, become a half-dead patient and return to the street, let me treat him like a normal person, and even be a neighbor with him My friend, can I do it, I really dare not answer this question. Hate makes people lose their minds. We only see people in this closed town, the endless indifference towards zombies, we only see Bill's hysterical hatred towards zombies and half-dead patients, but what's behind this seemingly inhumane? There is no doubt that the town was once occupied by zombies. Many people died tragically at the hands of zombies. Everyone lived in fear to avoid zombies every day, and lived heartbroken for the loss of relatives and loved ones. Behind the hysterical hatred is endless sadness. .
At this time, I actually thought of "primary Conan". Every murderer behind Conan has a reason that is not too big, not too small, or even touching, not only the famous detective Conan, but even Japanese big and small reasoning dramas Crime novels, etc., rarely appear in the American-style crime literature of unmotivated perverted murderers, which is why I prefer Japanese reasoning. (The topic is a bit off-topic) So what I want to say is that the seemingly simple word "tolerance" seems to be something that anyone can do, but it is really not something that anyone can do.
Those who can let go of hatred and tolerate those who have hurt themselves are truly kind people. It's not that most of us are not kind, but that human beings have an instinctive sense of self-protection. If they hurt themselves, they will resist from the bottom of their hearts. What a great virtue is the tolerance of "the world kisses me with pain, and I shall return it with a song".
About healing.
Watching this drama, I actually saw the shadow of my Natsume Takaji-sama from Kieren. To be honest, my general impression of foreigners has always stayed at the levels of "rough", "strong" and "frank" (sweat), and it lingers. Just like foreigners look at us, short and introverted, flying over the eaves and walking the wall is our pronoun (mistaken). So when I saw such a gentle yellow-haired handsome guy, I was really shocked. The touching dialogue between Kieren and his dad at the end of the third episode made me cry. It was the first time in my life that I watched European and American dramas and was moved to cry. This show has been identified by the Healing Department!
Finally, I look forward to the second season next year, I look forward to seeing the gentle and handsome young man Kieren with yellow hair again, I look forward to being full of love, and I look forward to the three more good-looking episodes of the rotten country!
