On the way home, it was so noisy that I couldn't sleep. Life was such a big drama.
I watched Gpysy one day yesterday, I don't know, maybe I watched it too fast, and I didn't have time to sum up my thoughts.
At first, because the introduction on the official account is an American drama related to psychological plots and the heroine is very good-looking, I thought I should watch it. Yesterday, I started reading after memorizing the words with nothing to do.
Jean's three patients: Sam, Claire, Alison. I mostly read Sam related stories.
At the beginning, Jean was on her way to work and entered Rabbit Hole, an underground coffee shop that didn't seem to be her level. Intentionally approaching Sam's ex-girlfriend Sidney. The distinctive female customer managed to attract Sidney's attention. After one to two times, the Diane-Sid line was opened.
Many people say that the heroine is bisexual and gradually debauched in her heart. I am more supportive of those who think that the heroine sees the past in Sid. When he is middle-aged, Jean is unwilling to continue to pretend to live a normal life and live a repetitive and dull life every day. Her heart was never at peace, and Sid was an opportunity to re-awaken that part of Jean's self, allowing Jean to start chasing potential personalities again.
In fact, when I watched it, I didn't realize that the whole drama was mainly to show the female lead's desire for control. At first I thought Jean was frustrated because as a psychologist, he could only listen silently and couldn't see the improvement of the patient's situation for a long time, and wanted to do something to help them. I didn't realize that when I got involved in a patient's life, all treatment started to lose its objectivity. Nor did he think deeply about why Jean would start interfering in the patient's life. Stupid still think the hostess is good? But ah, many things in the world have nothing to do with good or evil, as said in the play, subconsciousness decides performance. The subconscious mind has a lot to do with a person's deep character. Jean is a very controlling person at heart. If things don't go as she wants, she starts to control other people's lives and manipulate other people's psychology. At the end of the first season, this desire for control expanded into bully and victim. All bully is ultimately because of wanting to control themselves. Indeed, many times we react to others because we have various views of ourselves. "I hate you because I hate myself."
Going back to Diane-Sid, Diane and Sid are bully in a relationship, likes to manipulate others.
Michael is Jean's husband. Michael and Jean broke up because Jean couldn't commit herself fully to Michael. Michael found a woman, Catheline, who wanted to settle down with him for a lifetime. After Jean knew the news, he started to make a frenzy, torturing himself and using Michael to His own love tormented him constantly hanging and beating the remaining caring. Fortunately, Michael was very cowardly and returned to Jean's side. As a price, Jean began to suppress himself as a good wife and mother.
As for Sid and Sam, it's the same situation. Sam is madly infatuated with Sid, and Sid just wants to control other people's feelings for her, hoping that others will be around her, and she will control the near and far. While accusing Sam of not being overly dependent on her, Sid complained angrily to himself when he heard that Sam and his ex-girlfriend were engaged: "Everyone was moving forward, I was left alone, and now even Sam is gone ."
Sid and Diane both seem to enjoy the superiority of dominating others, but in fact they are deeply incapable of being out of control of their own hearts.
It was because of the phrase "you remind me of me" between Sid and Diane that Jean gradually went off the track and go chase the wild.
If Sam and Michael knew each other, would they also be able to share the same illness? They were also played with each other in the palm of their hands.
I don't know if I'll be bully or victim in a relationship. But, think about it, bully and victim won't be as distinct as the characters in the play. When you want to control others, your emotions are also restrained by others. I am very possessive and controlling, but I am also so fragile that I am completely unable to regulate and manage my emotions. I like to show the adhesion with the cracks in the constant pulling, and I also suffer from the consequences of the cracks. Repeat this over and over again, and one day, the adhesion will be torn apart by such a morbid complex. Just like in the play Michael lost confidence in Jean step by step, reaching out for Catheline in the last episode. Everyone likes to take the dominant position, but different people have different degrees. If they are hurt in the weak, they can only turn to a situation where they can have the advantage.
So in my one-sided focus, Diane and Sid's affair is not about whether or not the lily, but a parallel analogy to reveal the relationship between Jean and his partner.
I suddenly felt that all the explicit sexual relationships in American dramas are exaggerated reflections of human nature and desire, and ultimately explore the real human heart. (In 2018, after watching the six or seven seasons of shameless, I have habitually ignored the sexual scenes? I will pay more attention to the plot)
And what the line about Claire reveals is Jean's relationship with her mother. Claire is a mom who wants to be involved in everything about her daughter, Rebecca. In order to get rid of her mother's control, Rebecca decides to cut ties with her mother. And the mother still persevered and did not relax for a moment. Jean and mom also have a jarring relationship. All mothers seem to be strong, they hold their children's terrible pasts and try to meddle in their children's adult futures. Maybe it's because they can't accept that the baby in the palm of their hand has grown into an independent individual with strong free will. If they can't let go, the next generation will have to flee. In order to rebuild the relationship between Claire and Rebecca, Jean used the identity of Diane to approach Rebecca while treating Claire. Through understanding both sides, Jean planned a blueprint to make the mother and daughter move closer to her plan. As the process progresses, the danger of Jean's exposure gets closer. I didn't read this episode seriously, and I don't know what deep feelings I felt. Anyway, I knew that Jean saw herself and her mother from the relationship between Claire and women.
So Alison, a misguided little drug addict girl, and Jean directly helping her detox and even get rid of her ex-boyfriend in her original identity came from her infinite love for her daughter. When Alison disappeared she was so terrified she said what if it was Dolly. In other words, I don't know the purpose of the portrayal of Dolly's character. Is it just to show that Jean's family is not as perfect as it seems on the surface. What role Dolly's ADHD and gender cognitive impairment have on Jean's characterization, I don't understand much. And the fact that Alison was actually in Tom's car when he disappeared at the end, and Tom was the drug source for Sidney's Francis, might have a reason.
I can see these now, and the second brush may have other ideas.
