"White Dog" in my eyes

"White Dog" is an old film that gave me a great visual impact.
I watched "White Dog" because I heard the teacher talk about it in the human culture class by chance. Later, I followed the pace of the class to watch this old film. After that, I really felt that the shock was too great, and I went back to the dormitory and had a good aftertaste. Fan, in short, the movies that can influence me in this way are still movies adapted from the original novels, and they are also old movies. In the gray movie market that has been devastated for a long time, there are very few.
This is a film about racial discrimination in the United States. Surprisingly, its protagonist is a dog, it is not an ordinary dog, it is a white dog, and it is not an ordinary white dog, it is A white dog that specifically attacks black people, there is no racist in the film, but when the white dog madly attacks black people, it is vivid and vivid, which is more memorable than the direct description.
You know, there are not many films that directly expose the scars of American history in this way, but "White Dog" did it. Of course, it also spent a difficult 10 years waiting for its release.
Experience the feeling of waiting for 10 years. It is like you are going to participate in a swimming competition. You have never been able to swim to become a good player. How much effort has been spent in the middle, and when you finally get the chance to compete, the organizer says your swimming posture is "not good-looking". , affect the public image, pass you off, you have to wait ten years before you can regain the opportunity to swim, uh~ This feeling is really complicated and difficult to explain!
Fortunately, in 1991, it appeared in the public eye in the form of a banned film. From the point of view of our cultural teachers, this is the performance of cultural dissemination and development. From the point of view of the analogy just now, that is, after 10 years, your swimming style has not changed, it is still "unsightly", but the aesthetic level has also changed, your swimming style is no longer affecting the city appearance, but swimming. another way of elaboration.
After the sudden applause after the snow, it was a bit harsh to listen to at this time. Despite this, I still sighed comfortably. No matter what, good works are preserved and circulated.
In my opinion, besides the connotation and connotation of the movie "White Dog", there are also its promotional posters. How can I describe the horror and shock I felt when I saw that poster? A simple, seemingly ordinary white dog, with the pure white fur around its mouth, but smudged with red patches. It sounds like the color matching is quite distinct, just like the white skin of a newborn baby. A good blood color, tender and red, so beautiful, come on, girl, the reality is not always the same as Qiong Yao's drama, the white dog's mouth is full of red, and the shocking red is the blood of black people!
Well, you said that the black man and the white dog had a grudge in a previous life, or that the black man robbed the door of his house and robbed his beloved white dog daughter-in-law to be with his black dog, and his nine tribes were all skinned and cramped by the black man. Stewed dog broth, come on, do you think you are Jin Yong or Gu Long? Uncovering the mystery, the white dog and the black man who was bitten and killed have no grudges, they are just two unfamiliar species.
Dogs are actually colorblind. In its eyes, there are no whites and blacks, but only whites and blacks. It can be said that it is a species without racism. "The old white owner is inseparable. It's not just the white dog in the film that has such a fate. In the United States at that time, there were too many attack dogs like that. Most of them passed through the so-called pups when they were young. The special training of their owners - their owners hired alcoholic, gambling-addicted black people to torture them. The ending is predictable, and their attacks have become logical as they grow up.
Not to mention a dog, even an elephant can't stand such a toss! Well, I'm excited again.
There is no doubt that the deprivation of animal nature and the fighting of black humanity in the film are regrettable and reflective.
