I feel that this is a very interesting movie. The movie itself is full of strong imagination, and it can give the audience a strong desire for imagination, which is very interesting. Rare.
Let's talk about the title first. The real name of this film should be "Man bites dog: This killer is not too cold" or "Man bites dog: Gentle killing". Because the killer in the film is really a very talented guy , he is full of enthusiasm for life, he loves his work, he understands architecture, he admires the architectural style of Frank LloydWright. He understands music and likes to play the piano, he studies social problems and the formation of contradictions, he is disappointed and dissatisfied with the government and is curious about everything, so A perfect guy, it's no wonder that he brought a bad film crew. Let's
get down to business. A long time ago, Teacher Wang from the
church gave us such a lesson.
What do we call the Chinese who have their precious lives?"
We: "National Heroes!"
Teacher Wang: "What do we call the Chinese who have dedicated their precious lives to the interests of the capitalist country, the people's well-being, national dignity and social stability?"
We : "Traitor!"
Pastor Wang: "What do we call foreigners who resolutely sacrifice their precious lives for the benefit of the capitalist country, the people's well-being, national dignity, society and stability?"
We: "The enemy of the people!"
Teacher Wang: "We take What do foreigners who resolutely dedicate their precious lives to the interests of China, the people's well-being, national dignity, society and stability, are called
"people of insight!"
Speaking of which, Teacher Wang took a sip.
Teacher Wang said, "Since they all serve National interests, people's happiness, national dignity, social stability, and resolute dedication to their precious lives, why do they have different names?"
We: "I don't know!"
Teacher Wang [Push the glasses on Conan to see the sense]: "Because the position determines right and wrong." All of
us bear children are enlightened, or pretend to be enlightened.
The same is true in the film, a person's judgment of "right or wrong" depends on the person. The environment we live in is just like the Japanese think that the Diaoyu Islands belong to Japan, and the Chinese think that the Diaoyu Islands belong to China. Which camp we are in determines our judgment and choice of things, so everything is relative, and patriotism is also relative, only To achieve the unity of human interests and the pursuit of unity can there be absolute "right or wrong."
Unfortunately, this is impossible. Because this is not the light we want, or the
communist society.
Rotten sky and earth can be broken, all human beings side by side, hand in hand, hand in hand~" Before we know it,
we digress.
The movie tells us not to look at things in terms of right and wrong, and the position determines right and wrong. After staying in the position for a long time, I will gradually have a killer's view of right and wrong, and the so-called view of right and wrong is a very subjective existence. Is the killer wrong? He just has a different view of right and wrong from that of most people in the society. Many movies, the so-called contest between good and evil in books, in the final analysis, is just the collision of right and wrong. Like ideas, there is collision and there will be assimilation. Most movies At the end of the novel, one party assimilates the other party, or one party simply destroys the other party. The ending of the collision in "Man bites dog" is that the killer assimilates the film crew, because "human nature" is originally closer to the killer's concept of right and wrong, yearning for stimulation and boldness And extraordinary.
Finally, in terms of film style, in my opinion, this film is a qualified and excellent CULT film, just like "a thousand readers have a thousand Hamlet". Everyone probably has a CULT My own definition, let me explain why I think this movie is CULT enough.
The most CULT part of this film should be consistent in the CULT movies, the indifference to life and the straightforward description of violence. Every time the killer raises his hand, one person falls down, and then the killer will squat next to the corpse and explain to the camera crew such as "The weight used for sinking a corpse is three times the weight of an adult, four times that of a child, twice that of a dwarf, and five times that of an elderly person because of their loose physique, so that they will not float." Full of AIDS. This kind of disapproval of life and total immersion in self-inflicted fantasies, I think this is the most prominent performance of this film. The scene in the
film where the killer shows his "superpower" to the camera crew is my favorite. Yes, it is also where CULT is. Imagine a killer with a different view of right and wrong from yours, sitting on the opposite side of you and moving his nose, that scene is too CULT!
