Darling, this is the reality.
We adorn our city with countless grey buildings. This has also created our gray city, the reality is gray. Grey has become the word we use to describe facts. Similarly, gray reality also has an opposite word, called: colourful fairy tales
In order to build or create childhood for children (please refer to "The Passing of Childhood") as adults, social citizens have created dreamy and beautiful fairy tales for children . And "The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko" tells a story, gray. Intermixed with fantasy fairy tales, grey fairy tales.
They said the film was based on Ai Iijima's tragic life. Out of ignorance, I searched for information on the Internet and found that Ai Iijima is a Japanese AV star who has committed suicide. Obviously, she is the target of the "anti-pornography" operation. However, it is deeply loved by netizens.
I have a lot of respect for all AV stars. Including Sora Aoi. (Sora Aoi also starred in this movie) Because of this movie, I finally got to know Sora Aoi, Ai Iijima and others that you have not told me. They sacrificed their bodies for your YY. But this does not mean that their hearts are as humble as some people, such as Sister Feng.
"The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko" has always been unable to escape some key words, such as disgust. Matsuko is a very attractive, very sexy woman with a wonderful singing voice. She was well educated and taught in schools when she was young. Throughout the film, Matsuko has been chasing, looking for her own happiness, looking for love. Since childhood, in order to let my father's eyes stay on my body for one more second, so that my father can smile at me, I even made strange faces. Even on the girl's festival of adulthood, she was dressed up, and she still made a face, and completed her first costume photo since she was an adult. Just because of his father's words, "It would be great if you could see Yumi dressed up." Yumi is Matsuko's younger sister.
In the school where I teach, in order to protect the students, I took on the crime of "stealing money", but brought myself a lot of disasters. After I couldn't bear the pressure, I finally negotiated with the students who stole money to admit my mistake, but Being beaten down, she completely lost her qualifications as a teacher, and her first love.
I met the first man in my life who loved me. But he was beaten by this man. Talented man, driven mad by the coercion of life, painstakingly looking for a way to survive. All kinds of contradictions made him have to start beating the woman who depended on him and who loved him and could sacrifice everything. One night, he left "I'm sorry, I'm ashamed of being a human being" in front of Songzi and died under the rails.
All the time, fate makes people. From the beginning to the end, Songzi is like a fairy tale, silly, chasing his love, but chasing countless betrayals and countless injuries. The hardships to find love again and again are to add an attribute to others before describing her "trivial life": prostitute, murder, turkish bath girl... The family's betrayal made her lose her place. This is pine nuts.
Matsuko is definitely not an ordinary, contemptuous woman. Out of helplessness, he betrayed his body and was betrayed by a man, so he killed someone, and met love again on the way to death. Finally wanting to settle down and live with this ordinary barber, the police came to the door and put her in jail. For three years, no one has seen her, everything around her is out of tune with her, and the monotonous and stinky life has never destroyed Matsuko's heart. She protected a pure, beautiful and loving heart with her scarred body. Get out of jail. But he found out that the man already had a wife and a child. The camera stopped, she said, she smiled and said: I'm back.
The phrase "I'm back" in the film is an unbroken line. When he was beaten to death by a group of children, he also said "I'm back", and when he missed his hometown, he still said "I'm back". When I returned to the person I had always loved, it was still "I'm back", with a bruised nose and a bruised face. After failing to apply for a Turkish bath girl, he still smiled and said "I'm back". In this film, she only says "you're back" twice. Once when he was a mistress for a scumbag, and once when he was waiting in the snow for his boyfriend back from prison. "You're back" was greeted with scolding twice. The first time he was pushed to the corner of the table, the second time he was punched and lay on the ground, the bright red nosebleed stained the crystal world exactly like the fairy tale world. Likewise, she also asked "why" twice.
People clearly love each other, but they always hurt each other.
This principle is repeatedly raised in this film. The scar on Matsuko's face, Matsuko's face flushed red and she wanted to strangle her sister to death. They, they, love deeply and deeply. But they. They often hurt each other. Sprinkle yourself with a realistic grey powder after staying away. Then get close again. They think they are protecting themselves, protecting each other. However, it uses the most instinctive and violent method to ruthlessly hurt the opponent.
Such a gray fairy tale is presented with the most fairy tale lens.
The shots in the film are always paired with sweet backgrounds. When Matsuko ran away from home by bicycle, there was a cluster of beautiful paper flowers on the left side of the screen, and in front of the long road, there was a bright moon, the moon is the face of a lover. However, everyone knows that Matsuko is not moving toward the beautiful fairy tale world, pursuing pure love, but falling into the real hell.
Finally, pine nuts died. When she rekindled hope for the world, she was beaten to death by a group of children who should still be reading fairy tales. The camera slowly pulled up from Pine Nuo's face, which was obscured by her long hair, further and further away. We saw pine nuts die by the river, by the river with green grass. The theme song sounded like a nursery rhyme. Matsuko changed from the spurned Matsuko back to the one who was still teaching at the school at the beginning. She sang happily and walked through the scenes. Everyone sang in unison, singing nursery rhymes, clapping their hands and smiling. Look at this beautiful girl, bless her, go to death. On the stairs to heaven, she saw her dead sister and said to her "you are back" and she said "I am back".
Incomparably moved. Her love is still at home, and there are people who love her. Her hostile sister greeted her at the last moment from the world of misery into a beautiful paradise. At this time, Matsuko should understand. Love is here.
Although I can understand the last scene as the director and the fans wishing the dead Ai Iijima to find the love and family that she has been looking for in the filthy world in heaven. However, I also saw another side. When Matsuko left home, there was nothing else in front of her except the bright moon of love and the road that drifted away, but behind her, there were white fences and colorful beautiful flowers. Love is behind it.
Once Matsuko went home before going to prison. When I went upstairs, I met my sister who was going downstairs. My sister rushed down with great joy and said "you are back" when she pushed her away. This scene is very similar to the previous one. When Matsuko was about to run away from home, her sister cried and hugged her leg to prevent Matsuko from leaving, but Matsuko wanted to strangle Yumi. These actions are on par with what the men do to Matsuko throughout the film.
Did you understand something?
When Matsuko finally understood this, and went back to find the hero's father (Matsuko's younger brother), he was indeed told please never come back. This also led to the transformation of Matsuko's "rejected life" from spiritual to physical. Matsuko, who is forty to fifty years old, no longer wears makeup or dress up, and finally becomes the "stinking old woman" in people's mouths.
Sometimes, what we have been chasing is not our "love", but God gives us Our "love" is always abandoned in the back of our minds. It was not until the last second of our lives that we found out that we have always been loved, but we always thought that the world had abandoned us.
I dedicate this film to the children who can't find their way, are confused, and think that the world has turned away from them.
