#Event: Babies can be killed for wealth, buried thieves
A. Risuke saw the abandoned baby boy in the field
(If it is a boy, it will be thrown away; if it is a girl, it will be raised and sold to the salt house.)
B. It's normal for people to talk about discarded children ("If I have a son too, I'll throw it away." Curse a person and curse him "You will have a son.")
C. Because of the theft, the Yuwu family was buried and killed to share the spoils. (Reminds me of Nazis, militarism) ➡️ Cruel
Because a boy can't be raised, at least it's not a loss to sell a girl.
2. Sex: beast promiscuity, intergenerational incest, widow and wife
A. Li Shi secretly found a bitch late at night and vented [shocked]
B. In order to get rid of the curse of her husband, Azhi gave the unmarried men in the whole village a turn as a wife for one night
C. Chen Ping persuaded his daughter-in-law to give his brother a free night
Chen Ping's reason for persuasion is that it is free, but this winter is already very difficult, and he can no longer let his brother trample on the crops. This request was so unreasonable that Chen Ping was able to make it. (Shock)
D A Ling advised the old woman to have sex with her second son Risuke
Because in order to alleviate the food crisis, only the eldest son in the family has the right to marry, while the second son is deprived of the right to have sex, so he helps to find a bitch in the middle of the night, and then finds an old woman to vent. There are many scenes of animal mating interspersed in the film, indicating that human beings, like animals, mate, do not understand restraint, and have no ethics, but the fact is that people in that village don't care. Looking at it now is very contrary to our cognition, so it is more impactful.
3. [Chen Ping carried his mother up the mountain, while Lu Yu villagers pushed his father down the cliff]
In a situation where the productive forces are not yet developed, human beings cannot fulfill the responsibility of raising children and raising mothers and fathers. In order to survive, they can kill infants who are still in swaddling, and can push their fathers off the cliff, just because there is no such thing. Ability to create labor value. Mothers and fathers after the age of 70 cannot contribute anything to their families, even the food they need to live, so if they cannot create value, it is best to die. Therefore, people put seemingly moral reasons for cruel facts. ——When you go to Narayama at the age of 70, you can get the blessing of the gods.
But the fact is that there are many bones there. Whether it is because of lack of food and clothing, or the death of the son, as long as you embark on this road, there is only one dead end. And people tacitly choose to abide by it. If they don't send their parents to the past, it is a violation of morality and everyone hates them, so Chen Ping killed his father at that time because he was not ashamed. But in the end, I clearly found out that Chen Ping didn't want his mother to die there, so he ran to find her, (how I wish he could bring his mother home), but the mother just waved his hand to let him go back (the mother didn't want it either). Her son has a name for immorality on his back. In the film, the old mother often said something like "rules are rules" and "I'm going to go up the mountain this winter". In her own opinion, she must go up the mountain. The less "burden" the mountain brings to the family in the morning, but in fact, the mother is very healthy and works hard to fish, raise her children, do farm work, cook meals and organize housework, so she finds a hostess for Chen Ping, let the old woman have sex with Lisuke, and let the old woman have sex with Lisuke. Her granddaughter-in-law, Yuwu's Asong, was buried that night after returning home. She has always been doing what she knows is good for the family. She even knew that she would die when she saw her son coming to find her, she just let him Going home, and then quietly waiting for his own death in the snow) Chen Ping just comforted himself with Ji Xue.
What makes me uncomfortable is that everyone is so tacit, even if they know that it is bad, as long as they survive, they can destroy morality.
This reminds me of Parasite and Seven Samurai. It seems that only with the development of productive forces, everyone can have a sense of morality, and even become rich. In that embarrassed and even destitute living situation, people fight for survival and go against "true goodwill" (respect the old and love the young, not hurt others), but what is forcing them to be like this? Don't go down the path of such a wicked man.
#裝裟吉: His name is composed of "Kassa + Ji", which I find ironic. The cassock = the robe worn by the Buddhist monk, and the monk is not greedy for women, and the cassock has a bad character: 1. He disrespects his grandmother, and sings songs to satirize her ghost mother-in-law, saying that she has 33 teeth and 33 hairs underneath. , "counting ghosts has 33 teeth" (I don't know why they keep saying the number 33, does 33 teeth represent health, and a 70 year old has healthy teeth which is disgusting, no 2. Disrespectful to his uncle who called him "stinky"; 3. Looking for a woman
The only kindness he may have is his wife Asong.
(I may have overinterpreted)
