The most touching part is the part where the flea princess escaped. I have watched a lot of movies and TV series, and I have seen a lot of horror stories, but I have never felt so overwhelming terror and panic because of a movie like this.
Ever since the little princess was brought into that cave, the airtight fear and unease, like the worst nightmares of our lives, grabbed your throat. Weakness, collapse, nothing, meeting someone like a life-saving straw, only one after another please, begging, stumbling, running, fleeing, all the time, with all the strength, struggling, struggling, shouting, and finally cut off at the last moment , that seems to be the only rope connected to the nightmare. It seemed as if she was reborn, and she broke free from being shrouded in darkness, but the story was always like this, I haven't had time to take a good look at those, just like what she had dreamed of, handsome, brave, and the appearance of the boy who rescued her, not yet well Taste this "fairy tale" story of a hero saving beauty. That force dragged you back and fell into the devil's palm, destroying everything. Like many "romantic" stories I've seen, the savage couldn't kill the princess. I was discouraged and thought that the story was going in the direction that everyone was most accustomed to. The princess tried to comfort and approach him. His burned skin and flesh were exposed but Forgive the princess and prepare to carry the princess on her back and take her home as in the beginning. Just when I thought it was about to end, the next second, the princess raised her sword and fell, and finally everything was over.
When I saw this, I finally breathed a sigh of relief. When I read it, I was dragged into the boundless fear by this story and kept thinking that if I took that step and jumped off that abyss, there would be no need for pain. But there is no doubt that the last knife is undoubtedly the best ending. It is not to exchange pleadings for the father's soft heart, not to flee in embarrassment, not to be rescued by the good boy in his heart, and then to live a happy life. But with his own hands, he cut off the hand that had been holding his throat.
I saw many comments saying that the savages are pitiful, but the savages are actually very gentle, and the princess was cold-blooded and killed her husband. I really can't feel the same way. The day before, a girl who was just like many of us once fantasized about Prince Charming, a carefree girl, suddenly one day her father married a man who even he was afraid of, and was dragged into the forest. Falling off a cliff and being thrown into a cave full of bones like that, does anyone care about her feelings? There is no equality, no respect, and no marriage. From beginning to end, this is their destruction to her.
Why did everyone selectively narrow down or even ignore the pain of the heroine? Is it because of too many stories and plots of such vulnerable women being bullied? Or is it the masculinity ideology that is not surprising? Let's get used to the fact that women are always on the victim side, let's get used to the brutal image of a man killing the circus family and even nearly killing the vulnerable woman. So that when the savage stopped to pat his shoulders and some little "humanity" after the violence, our nerves that have long been accustomed to tearing have an illusion, let us silently accept it, as if he is good, the heroine should follow If he goes back, the princess can also live a "fairy tale"-like happy life with the beast.
Fortunately, the heroine in the play is very awake. She knows that she finally escaped, and she must never go back there to live her nightmarish life. She was cruel but decisive and killed the savage, and then took his first step. One step back there, to find her life back!
Bless yourself and escape from those imprisoned caves, bravely take up the knife and cut the throats of those demons who control us.
