Our red often reminds people of positive words such as passion, enthusiasm, vigor and so on. But in this "Red", Kishilowski shows us the mistakes and sentimentality in the lives of three ordinary people in a slow, long and complicated narrative. Of course, they are all living actively in the red world. Here, people should be full of positive emotions.
This is a small space, just the life emotions of a neighbor and a neighbor and another neighbor. They are very close, the experience coincides, and the destiny crosses.
I chose to analyze the relationship between the characters in the movie because of their encounters, acquaintances, and everyone's story is intriguing. The setting of this relationship permeates the fraternity that the director wants to express, and I want to call it contradiction.
The relationship between the heroine and the old judge leads each other out of confusion and knocks on the happy iron gate.
The heroine Van Lentina, a student and model at the University of Geneva, has a busy and running boyfriend. The boyfriend never appeared in the film. From the conversation on the phone, he learned that he is a girlfriend who doubts him and has strong control. The man of desire often suspects that Valentina is carrying him and socializing with others. Even though she has a boyfriend, she still feels lonely and depressed from time to time. However, she actively faces everyday life, is loyal to her feelings, and resists other temptations. Because she accidentally ran into a sheepdog named Hida, Valentina met the owner of the sheepdog, an old judge who lived alone and withdrawn. Before retiring, the old judge often used illegal wiretapping as a channel to understand the truth. After retiring, he still maintains this habit. For him, human infidelity and betrayal are doomed, and the content of the tapped phone has confirmed his point of view. In the eavesdropping passage, the film critic shows us two meaningful phone conversations. In a happy family, the male host and his boyfriend make ambiguous calls, and the cute little daughter is an enthusiastic "audience"; the second is the old lady talking to her daughter. I complained that I was not feeling well and that I ran out of food in the refrigerator. In fact, the old lady just hoped that her daughter would care about her and visit her more. Being sick and lacking food are all lies. After the daughter listened too much, she no longer believed in the old lady. Valentina is always sad, but what can she do? To expose the man's secret, or to help the old woman "buy things"? The old judge used the words of others like Valentina to reveal the contradictions and powerlessness of life. Here involves a very important prop in the film-the telephone. At the beginning of the film, in the rapid movement of the camera and montage cut and paste, two spaces separated by oceans were connected along the telephone line. Then the old judge tapped the phone, and human beings lost the right to choose whether to escape or face. They were invisibly controlled. The lover on the other end of Valentina's phone would always have all kinds of suspicions because of her delay in answering the phone.
Written, I was wondering if they love each other? The old judge and Valentina? They drank pear wine together, chatted together, chatted in the theater together, one by one in my mind, I slowly smiled, he did not ask about her lover, because she opened her loneliness, love A man is more lonely because of this; he loves his brother but can't save him; loves his mother but is always alienated. Love as an existence is replaced by loneliness and suffering deeper and more lasting. She asked about his lover, he answered indifferently, and did not speak slowly until the end. His story is written later in the relationship between the characters and the young judge. Valentina has been asking the old judge about her dreams. His dream indicates that she will be happy. However, I read in the dream that she may be him, and young people in their twenties may be her. They will live a happy life with their lover lying next to them, and then slowly Smiling, Valentina awakened the old judge's dusty love for many years. The old judge conveyed his love for her through dreams. The relationship between Valentina and the old judge also implies that there is a bit of a miss. In the film, the two people seem to have a lot of spiritual understanding and tacit understanding. However, the disparity in age, status, and experience, I really hope that they can Together. He stopped prying others' secrets and poured out his own.
The relationship between the old judge and the young judge is so "perfect" repeated.
The story of a man named Auguste (he was also one of the judges’ eavesdroppers). He and Valentina were neighbors and had experiences very similar to those of the old judge. Carefully fall to the ground, the page opened is exactly the test subject of the law exam; for example, he was dating a two-year-old blonde beauty, and the same woman clamped the thighs of other men. They even loved it. The same CD, this CD is also Valentina's favorite. Of course, the most obvious point that the old judge and the young future judge August are similar is their attitude towards dogs. This is the second important prop in the movie-the dog. The old judge gave up his dog after distrusting love, and Auguste gave up his dog after being betrayed by his girlfriend. But in the latter part of the film, I saw Auguste holding his dog aboard a yacht. This is a symbol of hope, and his love is not dead.
The setting of the two of them makes time no longer exist in the film as a one-line one-way existence, but a complex mechanism operated by countless gears and scrolls. When the old judge enters his twilight years, his first half of his life begins to be in the same space again. Reappearing, this kind of time miss makes us have a wonderful illusion. This is my favorite screenwriter structure and character relationship in this movie. When the old judge begins to narrate his own story, we have the influence of the young judge in our minds. The repetition is so perfect, he seems to be August’s. In the past life, I was surprised, and I didn't feel that it was accidental exaggeration. But the young judge may be the continuation of the old judge, continuing the impossible love with Valentina, thinking that he is so perverted. Absurd and true. Awesome.
The relationship between Valentina and August, what will happen next moment?
Valentina and Auguste are two parallel and mutually revealing clues. August and Valentina meet every day, but they are still just familiar strangers, each with their own lives. They all just think that their next meeting will be their first meeting. The director has been deliberately arranging scenes where he often passed by Valentina in the film, but they never had the opportunity to get to know each other. Through the phone, through the old judge, the two strangers formed a connection in the audience's mind. Auguste would stand in front of the huge red gum ad, smiling, and Valentina would stand at the window and stare carefully. The red jeep downstairs, you never know what will happen to themselves and each other in the next moment? The setting of the neighbors, the state of living all the time, the parallel space that can be covered by the same lens, but they don’t know each other, until two people get on the same boat and encounter a shipwreck. On the TV of the old judge’s house, they become common survivors. Was connected for the first time. At the end of the movie, the old judge saw in the TV news a scene where a young man who was surprisingly similar to his fate and Valentina were rescued in a shipwreck, close together. The freeze-frame shots are strikingly similar to the look of the huge commercials. In the film, when Valentina encountered a storm at sea, her advertising signs were also experiencing wind and rain. The director used close-ups and used a lot of shots for performance, weird The storm, the weird surviving, the weird look is similar. Surrounded by mystery. Everything seems to have a certain ambiguous warm atmosphere and the light of hope. In the red light, she still had such a lonely but innocent look. The cruel destiny seemed to have turned around at this moment, with unbearable compassion.
The relationship between Valentina, the old judge and Auguste happened unexpectedly.
The phone, tangled together, he and she tapped his phone. The working setting of the telephone personal weatherman was an excellent setting, laying the groundwork for betrayal, and also for the development of the story and their acquaintance and their destiny. A suitable reason. What’s even more bizarre is that they like the same CD. Seeing Valentina went to buy the CD, it was bought by Auguste and his lover. At that moment, I suddenly remembered that the old judge gave Valentina to Valentina. At thirty francs, the money was placed on the portrait of Van Don Bud Meyer, and the director gave a close-up shot of about three or four seconds, and there was a weird chance between them. At the end of the film, after the storm, when the old judge was anxiously looking for Valentina on TV, both Valentina and August were lucky enough to be rescued. The two stood together. At that moment, the personal life seems to be formed into a ring, accompanied by the hope of a new life, at that moment, "Red Love" is full of red. Valentina made the old judge who had been completely disappointed in people surpass the negative experience of the past; because of her, it rewrote Auguste's fate of repeating the old judge's mistakes.
Is the relationship between the seven rescued fate?
One thousand and five hundred people were killed and seven survivors. I was thinking about the meaning of this number. When I searched for information, I saw this interpretation, which represents the seven redemptive names of Jehovah. The survivor between them is the protagonist in the movie, and the meaning of fate and gods is the end of the movie, and the power of thinking cannot be underestimated. This is a ray of light that the movie cares about the world with God's compassionate eyes, and mankind has truly gained salvation and fraternity.
Perhaps the sad look in the huge red gum is the fateful hint of this storm.
In the last film, the director still sent us sentimental, but this time it was warm.
