How far can maternal love go

After watching "Mother", I was more excited, and the house cat was lying next to me. Seeing its indifferent and incomprehensible manner, I was a little bit angry. So he punched a set of Wing Chun on his fat belly continuously, which made him panic. Few movies can make me so forget about it now. Bong Junhao's handling of this movie gives people a feeling of getting better. As the plot develops, you will find yourself being led by his nose again and again, and you'll be convinced. It's not about how far the director has gone to fight the audience with his wits. All the plots have developed in a reasonable and reasonable way, and they slapped the audience's mouth lightly. It's like doing Tai Chi, seemingly weak, but the stamina comes from it. I won’t go into details, so I don’t have to scan the interest of fans who haven’t watched this movie. The movie "Mother" expresses such a contradictory theme: How far can maternal love go? What we have seen from the beginning to the end is a great mother. Even when she is working, she keeps our eyes on her mentally retarded son. He doesn’t blame him for doing something wrong, even if Jintai unreasonably demands compensation of 5000. Yuan was also offered in full; on a rainy day, he took a broken umbrella and paid for someone else (of course, the old man also paid a clear price, and only received a ticket. In this movie, I really can’t find a real one. Bad guy)... However, this kind of mother's love is the source of all evil. "When someone insults you, you have to pay back twice." It was this sentence that cost a girl's life; and in order to conceal the facts, the mother had to kill and burn the body... If a person believes in the value and When the emotional norms are distorted, then for him, where is the boundary between heaven and earth? So when the interlocking film began to end, director Feng Junhao brought countless Tai Chi shocks to the audience: Mother went to prison to visit the scapegoat Japanese lunatic, she only cared about one thing "Do you have a mother?" This line of dialogue makes people feel mixed. Will the mother of the little madman be sad? Will the little madman's mother do stupid things? If a little madman doesn't have a mother, can he let him be blamed with peace of mind? When the mother returned home with a guilty conscience, the mentally handicapped son was out of time to talk about why the girl’s body was hung on the roof. “It must be for people to see, and then someone will call the hospital to save her.” The mother was in. It should be applied awkwardly. The purity of the son makes everyone feel distressed. In the following scene, the mother went out to say goodbye to her son for a short time, and the son gave a gift, nothing else, but an acupuncture box left by the mother at the murder scene. After seeing the box, her mother desperately tried to get rid of everything and got up and left. From her expression, it could be seen that the guilt that had been forgotten suddenly crawled all over her body. The director seems to be saying: "Once you do something wrong, don't try to get rid of the relationship." After getting in the car, the mother took out a needle and stuck it at the base of her thigh. This is also the elimination that the director introduced before. The acupuncture points of memory, after this, the mother joined the team of passengers in the car jumping for joy. My mother "dismissed" the responsibility, leaving us the audience lost in emotional and moral value judgments. In the whole story, the only person who is under tremendous mental pressure and harm is the mother. It was she who used this kind of dedication to temporarily save her son's pure future. Why is it temporarily? Because a mentally handicapped son would naturally forget everything, but maybe just as he suddenly remembered that it was not him who knocked down the rear mirror of the Mercedes-Benz, maybe he would think of other things someday. Many people should compare "Mother" with Bong Joon-ho's predecessor "Memories of Murder". I think technically speaking, the status of the latter is still unshakable, but "Mother" is emotionally and the core of the play. They are undoubtedly better.
