"Perfect Sense" (Perfect Sense) is the grand opening of MOVIE MOVIE, a movie station co-operated by Broadway Film Center and pay TV NOW TV, and the first simultaneous broadcast of TV and movie theaters. Sitting at home, paying attention to the time, you can enjoy this movie, it's really fun. I heard that this newly established movie station will simultaneously play the first round of movies with the movie center every month. For Hong Kong movie theaters, which have always shown few foreign language films and featured movies, the emergence of movie stations may give hobbies to different kinds of movies. The opportunity to see the screening is a good thing for the audience. The Broadway Cinema Center is basically the place where I watch movies. One is that the Cinema Center regularly organizes small film festivals that are different from the other ones, such as the French May, Gay Film Festival, Refugee Film Festival, and dance troupes. Co-organize a dance video film festival and so on. Give viewers more choices beyond mainstream and commercial films.
Under such an opportunity, it is good news to be able to sit down at home and watch the first round of movies without entering the venue. With the appearance of movies in different interfaces today, as Director Hou Xiaoxian said: "The habits of watching movies have changed." In this way, a certain part of the film should also enter the scene to feel the texture of the film. The roughness of the film film during the copying process is the taste of the film. Or "Paradise Lost for the Senses" will be a movie that makes us think and gain something.
In recent years, there have been quite a few movies about doomsday and infectious diseases. First, there are "2012", "Blind Flu", and "War Epidemic of the Century." However, "Blind Flu" is a set that I like very much. The human nature and metaphors in the "Blind Flu" are appropriate for the physical blindness of the inner world. Even if the people in "Blind" are blind, they still have the sense of hearing, smell and speech. With her ability, the heroine in the story uses her body to record what happened next. She has seen all the ugliness, distrust, and selfishness of human nature, but what she leads a group of people to see is hope. However, "The Epidemic of the Century" is only recording the course of the epidemic, but it is a bit eclipsing in the performance of human nature. The movie elements of "Paradise Lost for the Senses" are basically a comprehensive version of "Blind Influenza" and "The Epidemic of the Century", but the elements of love literature and art are added to "Sense", which extends the development of the epidemic through the relationship of love.
"Paradise Lost for the Senses" is innovative in the expression of the film, which is outstanding in similar movies, but it is hastily in the part of love art. The part of love is not hot enough, lacks passion, and lacks warmth. The story also deliberately arranged the heroine as an expert in infectious diseases, and met the hero chef in one-night stand. Unexpectedly, soon after the acquaintance, the unknown epidemic began to spread in the community, and then infections appeared all over the world. The film’s protagonist’s narration opens the film’s prelude. From our communities with restaurants and families to the point where humans have gradually lost their facial features, it tells how humans can continue their lives under a panic, and continue to face them. We find our "heart" and learn to "love".
Love is a very deep and difficult subject. We have spent all our lives searching for the meaning of love, learning to love, give and accept among many extraordinary things. The love between Susan and Michael, the protagonist of the story, is based on a one-night stand, or it may not be love, it is sexual desire, but through the plot in the story, the two people meet and love begins. He may be a bastard, with emotional flaws and guilt, even if he wants to make up for it, he can't go back to the past. The lover is gone, and he has been running away. She was abandoned again and again because of physical problems, and she was unable to give birth to the one she loved. However, they love when the plague spreads.
At first, they just lost their sense of smell. The diners still have the sense of taste to feel the food, and then they lose their sense of taste. The dining hall is just for entertaining and showing off, but they can still see and feel the texture of the food. The people in the movie begin to find new ways for the feeling they have lost. They may not only eat fat and flour, but eat food with texture. Every time they lose a feeling, people will behave abnormally, madly retaining the last feeling for what they are about to lose, there is only a moment of madness, and then disappear without a shadow. Every time, people will have regrets and sadness, because of the unknown epidemic, but also because of their personal lack. People always know how to remember after losing, and then they know how to hurry up. The men and women in the story have different attitudes when facing the epidemic. The cognition in the brain is suddenly depressed and full of mind.
Love stories still have to have an end, and it is necessary to overcome all difficulties, so the end is an open ending. Next, whether they lose sight or not will have to be judged by the audience. Since love is a difficult language to understand, the story cites us that any lack of physicality is inferior to the incompetent love of the soul. The author thinks "Paradise Lost for the Senses" may not be the audience's favorite work, but it has its own metaphor, the kind of getting new ways from being to nothing, or a subject that everyone must encounter in their lives. Speaking of not necessarily love, it can be family, friends, or even an object. We are all experiencing the things we don't want to see in our lives, disease, death, and departure. Everything will have a beginning and an end, even if there is more perseverance, it is more in vain, no matter how life has to continue, the magic of love is infinite. There is love in the world, and I believe everyone will experience it.
This kind of essay, whether it is a fable or not, everyone will understand that we can't escape the stage of growth from birth to growth, growth to aging. The meaning of life, even if we suffer silently, feel the dissatisfaction and joy of others towards you. Then love some people and be loved by some people. Then disappear silently.
Regarding the performance of the film, one thing I like is that the narration runs through every chapter. The film must be edited to a certain degree of material. The material used in the narration is also suitable for the way the film is presented. Doomsday movies are not necessarily bloody, violent, or fleeing. It is more about spending more creativity, carefully constructing a beautiful new world, and more able to explore the direction of human nature.
