The film actually tells a very simple story of how an alien gradually develops human emotions.
At the beginning of the movie, the goddess showed full sincerity. She took off her own clothes and put them on again. She was very interested in ants and turned a blind eye to the human body. In contrast, the goddess looks in the mirror in the house of the man who took her in, and at this time she has developed an interest in the human body. It can be said that it is a kind of cognitive generation.
Among them, the mirror is a very interesting image. The several times the goddess looks in the mirror is the process of gradually understanding herself. The mirror here can also be virtual, a kind of contrast, that is, self-reflection with social interaction and evaluation with others. For example, the question and answer with the guide men and the evaluation of the goddess' eyes, lips and black hair directly led to the motorcycle men's observation of the goddess, which led to the behavior of motorcycle men looking in the mirror. The goddess didn't really wake up until she finally took off her skin and looked at herself.
We can observe the emotional production of the goddess during the awakening process over time lines. Facing the hooligan who knocked on the window of the car, the goddess drove away without panic. At that time, she didn't have the feeling of fear, which was a huge contrast to the ending where the goddess was molested by the forest ranger and ran wild. The inclusion of ugliness is also a result of empathy, that is, the establishment of self-awareness under the social interaction reference evaluation system.
Several scenes are worth pondering, one is the liposuction process of the fruit man under the black water, I think it is the spring of dieters. And when the goddess makeLove was afraid that her skin would be punctured, she was shocked to check her lower body and found that there was a hole. I laughed and urinated at this scene. Of course, there are also benefits from the goddess, hehe.
