original sin

1 The male protagonist becomes a kind of male-slightly combination. 2Adam as the title, Adam preached the original sin. The "sex" throughout the text becomes the representative of original sin.

Joe's desires create tragedy, and desires are based on selfishness. Joe's weak conscience tries to save the prisoner during the trial, but it fails. Girlfriend fell into the water, burned photos, threw the printer in the water, and finally threw the mirror in the water. The river takes away the good side of the male lead step by step.

In addition to the male protagonist's good and evil, sex, and class division. The boatmen's entertainment is throwing darts, saying yellow jokes, and discussing gossip. To be able to show a little face on the news is an incredible thing. The high-level police specially reminded "Don't get dirty" after Joe's signature. The lawyer asked the owner of the boat, and the owner responded with "My mate" with obvious jeers, all of which seemed to be superior.

Joe, who is reading a book after work, is caught in the middle and looks different. He seems to have gotten rid of the prejudice of ordinary people, but he can see the combination of evil in him. He is like a naive child, his actions are free and uncontrollable, and sin is caused by him.

Just to cater to "Adam", I was born in sin. In my mother's womb, there was sin.

In the end, Joe's departure, I don't know whether to choose to escape from the pit of "sin", or to throw away kindness and join the world. With the only expectations for human beings, hope is the first species.

PS: Although the film is the product of the director, the actors can definitely affect the quality of the film. The director's selection was too correct, and the performances of Erwan and the Queen added a lot to the film.

Young Adam quotes

  • Joe Taylor: I think she went to a bridge fully dressed and stood there breathing the warm night air. And she took off her jacket and folded it neatly on the ground. And then she unbuttoned her blouse and undid her brassiere and let it drop down on top of the other clothes. And she'd unbutton her skirt and let it slip down over her hips. And then she'd unroll her stockings and hold them out so that they blew in the breeze like penance before she let them float off into the night. And she'd shiver and ask herself if she really wanted to go through with this, and she'd answer that question by kicking her clothes into the river. And hurriedly now she'd take off her garter and her knickers. And there'd she be, standing in her petticoat, thinking about whatever it was that brought her to this. And then with her petticoat billowing around her she'd drop into the water like a rose, float there for a moment, and be gone.

    Les Gault: What kind of woman would do that?

    Joe Taylor: Just an ordinary woman.

  • Joe Taylor: [after having sex with Ella] Are you sorry?

    Ella Gault: Fat lot of good that would do me.
