A practice of fetish split

Destin 2021-10-18 09:30:28

There is no new point of view, all tooth wisdom is stolen.


Fetish split and survival anxiety are both causal and inward and outward, and the former is more closely related to "projection" and "gaze" after being re-evoked and explained by Zizek in recent days. It is worth noting that the writing of survival anxiety in this film is also based on the expression of "viewpoint".
Although the film did not start with David, the opening of the film that was originally ritualized and endowed with a certain kind of unstable energy, and the train scene with information and events have more formal opening meaning.
Let us recall two iconic behaviors of David in the train scene. One is that a beautiful woman sits beside him and quickly takes off the ring, and the other is that when he looks at the child in front of him through the gap in the seat, the child looks upside down and looks awkward. . If the act of picking the ring is a kind of self-betrayal (we will see that David used to be obsessed with marriage later) and a vague identity recognition, then the curious lens as David's subjectiveness just explains the chaos and instability in David's heart. When the son comes out on the stage, his viewpoint lens shows an inverted and abnormal world (an inverted TV). If we regard the relationship between this group of characters and the viewpoint as a kind of fable: the father passively sees something Wonders, the son is actively creating (or trying to create) the wonders. Therefore, we found that those who secretly weighted the barbell and pointed the gun at the father were all sons who were in the same survival anxiety (the son felt not like his father) in the Oedipus triangle and still lived in the imaginary world.

Eli’s fetish split is separated from the director’s intentional or unintentional abstract narrative, which appears to be more pure and reveals himself. Eli’s first contact with comics provides at least two other layers of information for introducing comics into the narrative line. The first is Eli. Seeing the abnormality of his bones as an injustice and trying to find a reasonable explanation, followed by the incomplete structure of Eli’s family (forgetting whether there was a fatherlessness at the beginning), and the Oedipus triangle relationship between Iran and Iraq. Lay's lack of the usual projected object (father) also more or less circumstantial proof of the rationality of the dualistic narrative of the typical empathy comics. Putting aside the nonsense, the comics provide an effective distance between Eli and the current reality (Zizek). Being immersed in the comic narrative allows Eli to be sure that there is someone who can replace his mother somewhere and continue to prove his own existence. The projected object of meaning (the meaning of defects), Eli must have enough fetishness for comics to generate his desire to try to explain his own defects. On the other hand, it also explains Eli’s existence as a "big devil": in the narrative of comics. The devil "is often the role that really pushes the narrative to proceed and end.

2. Let’s review Mr. Lancière.
"Gazing always means externality...covering the self... Gazing is a process of self-loss."
Eli struggled with a certain existence that could prove himself, but chose The method is rooted in abandoning oneself and burying the truth by looking at the comic narrative (disorderly, nihility).

3. Eli's shots looking out of the window are easily associated with Deleuze's comments on "Rear Window". The
peeping point emphasizes his own passivity and incompetence (an anxiety

4. There are several inductive shots in the film, which make people I almost believed that Eli was really harmless to humans and animals. When
Eli chased the man in the camouflage jacket to the subway station, the camera quickly opened.
The description that may appear in the pull-sheet notes "the scene becomes bigger and smaller, the character is in a dilemma", Is it very similar to what Astruc said in some specific scenes of Cohen's "Mirror Abyss" ("They plunge the central character into a bottomless abyss. In the end it almost becomes a kind of game"

5. There is also a lot of sharing with "Dress in the Water" Key words
Both stories are based on some kind of narrative mythology, the legend of the water monster in "Water" and the heroic manga in "No"; the characters share the same survival anxiety (I guess Shamaran may take herself seriously; everyone All are forced to join the narrative and voluntarily play a functional role. There are many specific images in "Water" and David in "No", and in the process, there will be unconfident doubts or confusion. In "Water" The confusion between the interpreter and the guard, and David’s fear of water.

Probably so much, let’s talk about it after thinking about it

    [A] Countless amazing passages remind me that this is an author's film that is absolutely dominated by the scheduling of the internal space of the image. Shamaran is almost using scheduling to determine the direction of a script, which is in the traditional sense "overwhelmingly dominant". From the first shot, the answer has been told to the audience. Through the visual deception brought by the double mirror reflection, the core of the story and the reversal structure are embedded in the movie. Whether it’s the lens design of the train spying on the dialogue, the weird atmosphere created by the rotating movement of the camera and the blurring of the crowd when walking out of the hospital, the use of bright colors to pursue evil in the museum, and the climax of the second half, the curtains rolled up by the wind, slowing down The slowly sinking plastic sheet, the movement of the material is captured by Shamaran, and it has promoted a real personal awakening. The look and feel is actually similar to "War of the World". In order to successfully absorb the essence of the image, the audience needs to choose to actively ignore the dross in the script.

Unbreakable quotes

  • Elijah Price: This is from Fritz Campion's own library. This is before the first issue of the comic book hit the stands in 1968. It's a classic depiction of good versus evil. Notice the square jaw of Slayer, common in most comic heroes. And the slightly disproportionate size of Jaguaro's head to his body. This again is common, but only in villains. The thing to notice about this piece... the thing that makes it very, very special... is its realistic depiction of its figures. When the characters reached the magazine, they were exaggerated... as always happens. This is vintage.

    Young Father: Well, wrap it up.

    Elijah Price: You've made a considerably wise decision.

    Young Father: My kid's gonna go beserk.

    Elijah Price: [confused] Once again, please?

    Young Father: My son, Jeb. It's a gift for him.

    Elijah Price: How old is "Jeb"?

    Young Father: He's four.

    Elijah Price: [frowning] No. No, no, no, no, no. You need to go. Now.

    Young Father: What'd -- What'd I say?

    Elijah Price: Do you see any Teletubbies in here? Do you see a slender plastic tag clipped to my shirt with my name printed on it? Do you see a little Asian child with a blank expression on his face sitting outside on a mechanical helicopter that shakes when you put quarters in it? No? Well, that's what you see at a toy store. And you must think you're in a toy store, because you're here shopping for an infant named Jeb. Now, one of us has made a gross error... and wasted the other person's valuable time. This is an art gallery, my friend... and this is a piece of art.

  • [David and Audrey on a date night]

    David Dunn: ...I think rust.

    Audrey Dunn: Rust?

    David Dunn: As a color, not as rust. You know, a rust-colored paint or wood?

    Audrey Dunn: I didn't know that. Mine's still brown.

    David Dunn: My turn. What's your favorite song?

    Audrey Dunn: "Soft and Wet", by the Artist Formerly Known as Prince.

    David Dunn: What was that?

    Audrey Dunn: We're supposed to be honest.

    David Dunn: "Soft and Wet". That's very interesting.
