What story was told? I have to pull out of these movie elements, because the atmosphere created in the play and the foreshadowing, the jumping expression style, these will interfere with your understanding of the story. Leaving that aside, I'm talking about a young man who came to Paris from New York. That night, he came to a hotel and checked in. He was only going to stay for one night, but he ended up staying for half his life because he hooked up with the landlady and finally got married. , Shortly after the marriage, the wife cheated and fell in love with other men who stayed in the hotel. The three of them maintained a weird relationship together. In the end, the wife committed suicide. , lost his wife in middle age, and was infertile, had no children of his own, and his wife committed suicide because he fell in love with other men. In addition, his personality was rather strange and melancholy. From the content of his chats with the heroine, it can be inferred that he The childhood is not happy, there is a strict father, the psychology professor also said that childhood has a great influence on a person's character. So it is easy to cause him to be more withdrawn and closed, or even abnormal psychology. The film begins with Paul ranting. In this way, I lived a life of walking dead every day, wandering on the streets, and finally met Jeanne, a 20-year-old heroine. She was playful and lovely and had a lot of female charm. The first time I met two people's bodies, it was good, although one was a widower and the other was a widower. There are male friends, of course, everything about the male protagonist, including even his name, was not told to the female protagonist at first. After that, the two people often met privately in that closed hotel house, like strangers, but not like them. The plot develops later. On the day of the female protagonist's engagement, she came to confess to Paul. Paul didn't say anything that day. Then he cried bitterly in front of the body of his dead wife, began to let go, and decided to leave the closed cabin. I came out and planned to tell the heroine about her own situation, indicating that she wanted to organize a family life together with the heroine, but who knew that the heroine was unwilling. Finally died at the gunpoint of the heroine.
To be honest, this story is very old-fashioned, a middle-aged man who is quite attractive, his wife cheated and committed suicide, he has infertility, has no children of his own, has no enthusiasm for life, is withdrawn and indifferent and irritable. . Finally met a young, lively and lovely heroine and wanted to walk into his life. When he finally opened up, the heroine didn't love him anymore and planned to leave him for reasons that could not be explained. To express the complex human nature, the spiritual crisis and the deformed relationship of contemporary urbanites.
And this theme can also have N kinds of film shooting styles, which can be light comedy or tragedy. When I wrote this, I suddenly found that it is really suitable to use this style of film language to present deformity and morbidity. I also understand why the film begins with Bacon's oil painting
director has already expressed what he wants to say from the very beginning.
There is a word in the film called "film aesthetics", which is related to the director's aesthetics. Bertolucci must have liked Bacon's paintings, or at least appreciated his creations, before applying them to his films. .
Bacon said:
"I'm a blender. Everything I can
see can be ground and mixed together." The lover that Paul's wife finally found was actually similar to Paul in terms of temperament and appearance. , why cheat? Why can the three of them coexist peacefully? Why would the heroine have sex with a strange old man when she clearly has a boyfriend? Why does she still choose to marry him when she obviously doesn't love her male ticket? Why did the male protagonist want to be with the female protagonist in the end, but the female protagonist backed away and finally killed him? There are N whys, and every analysis can pull out complex human nature. The same is the presentation of deformed and abnormal human nature, Bacon uses paintings, Bertolucci uses films.
