Transferred from WeChat public account 1. In the face of survival, the animal attributes of human beings are fully revealed. Maslow's theory of needs states that people can only achieve higher-level needs by solving basic survival needs. When people can't even solve the problem of food and clothing, they will do whatever they can to survive and degenerate to a primitive animal state. It is said that "tiger poison does not eat its children", but in order to survive, the people in the film bury their newborns alive, or simply throw them in the rice fields like garbage to drown, which is shocking. The rain house family has a large population, and in order to survive, they embarked on the road of stealing. After the villagers humiliated them collectively, they buried them alive in the name of apologizing to the God of Narayama. Even Asong and the child in his belly could not escape. Afterwards, everyone greedily divided up the food in their family. The purpose of this was to satisfy their own selfish desires in the name of righteousness. . On the other hand, the film presents the primal desire of this human superior animal through a large number of undisguised sexual scenes. A Lingpo's grandsons Kasakaji and A Song release their desires anytime and anywhere. They have sex in various places, on the rocks by the stream, on the trees, on the grass... And the second son of A Lingba helps because of There is an odor on his body, and the 35-year-old has not yet led a new life, so he often peeps at his elder brother Chenping and his sister-in-law, and even goes to a dog to solve his physiological needs. Just like the snakes that mate, the moths that mate with their tails, and the mantises that mate with each other, the raw and extensive sexual desire is displayed on the screen without restraint, which will catch you off guard. 2. Feudal superstition and barbaric behavior in primitive society under the camera People in the village follow this custom. As long as people reach the age of 70, they will be sent to Mt. Nara to pay homage to the mountain gods, so that the mountain gods will also bless the villagers.
However, when Chen Ping came to the mountain with his mother on his back, there were only piles of bones and birds pecking in front of him, looking very desolate, how could it be as calm and peaceful as people say. The vast majority of the elderly were forced to send them to Narayama. The bones of the deceased were still hanging on the rope that was tied before his death. Chen Ping even saw with his own eyes another old man was tied up with five flowers because he was unwilling. The old man held his son tightly and refused to let go, but the son cruelly pushed the old man down the mountain. Furthermore, the husband who was seriously ill claimed that the evil spirits had been haunting their house because of the mistakes of the ancestors. Before dying, he asked his wife and every man in the village to take turns to spend the night in order to make up for the mistakes of the ancestors in exchange for future generations. of tranquility. Whether it is throwing the old man on the mountain, or letting the wife and others take turns to drive away the evil spirits, it is a manifestation of the ignorance of people's thinking under extreme isolation. The way of sacrifice is soothing and hope that the problem can be resolved. . 3. Human nature is good, there is no evil for no reason. In the movie, A Lingba is about to go up the mountain, but her body is very tough. In order not to make her son sad, she deliberately uses some methods to make herself look exhausted. Such as holding back the pain and knocking out your own teeth.
A-ling also helped the sons to solve their worries and made all preparations for going up the mountain. . The eldest son lost his wife, A-ling helped Chen Ping to welcome his new daughter-in-law A Yu into the door, and taught her the skills of fishing, allowing her to Not to starve; the second son, Lizhu, was disliked because of his body odor and had no sex all the time, so she persuaded the aunt in the village to satisfy her son's desire to become a man; and when winter came and food was in short supply, she took the initiative again. Acting as an executioner, he tricked Asong into Yuwu's house and buried him alive together.
. A Ling Po can be said to have broken her heart for her son. This is the kindness of a mother. When there was a shortage of food, she took the initiative to ask to go up the mountain. Facing the lazy Assong, who was already dying, she did not hesitate to become an executioner. Is Aling Po a cruel person? Do not! She said that she could be reunited with Asong when she got to the mountain. Everything Grandma did was the kindness she left to the family. The son, Chen Ping, carried his mother to the top of the mountain. After seeing the tragic appearance of bones everywhere, she couldn't bear to abandon her mother here alone. She hugged her mother in pain and couldn't bear to leave. It's kindness as a son, in stark contrast to the son who pushed his father down the mountain. When Chen Ping was going down the mountain, it snowed heavily. He violated the regulations and ran back to the top of the mountain excitedly, watching his mother sitting there peacefully and calmly with his hands folded. With tears in his eyes, he shouted: Mom! It's snowing, which is a good omen! When Chen Ping returned home, he saw that everyone in the family was wearing a belt to commemorate his mother. Even Kasakaji, who had been making fun of grandma's teeth, sang: It snowed heavily on the day on Mt. Nara, and the tree stump family's A Ling was very lucky... Maybe. We think their actions are ignorant, but we can't take the current ruler of civilization as the standard of judgment. Grandma's love for her son and family, Chen Ping's inability to part with her family, the aunt agreeing to grandma's request to dedicate herself... These are the most direct and simple and kind-hearted humanity in this extreme backwardness of material civilization. manifestation. . And finally, with a long shot of a set of snow-covered peaceful villages, the film gradually ends, just like the snow at the beginning. I think this probably means that for everything in the movie, he just presented it to the audience without any disguise, just like Snow White, without any subjective criticism or negation.
