I have an appointment to watch this movie tonight on CCTV's Best Movies. Fortunately, there is a reminder that there is an appointment for a good movie. Otherwise, I would never understand such a painful movie.
The actors' real names are used below to refer to their roles.
The heroine in the film always seems to be changing, first Sophie, then Monica, then Little Monica, and finally back to Sophie, and then Sophie + Monica. In fact, there are so many changes, just need to grasp one core: what you see is not what you see.
In fact, the heroine of the film has always been Sophie, always, no matter who you see, her real appearance is Sophie, and the protagonist that the audience sees is precisely Sophie hidden under this appearance 's heart. In the beginning, Sophie's inside and outside are the same, her appearance is Sophie, and her heart is also Sophie. But then it was different. Her appearance was Sophie, but her heart changed several times as we saw it. Why didn't the director keep the protagonist's appearance consistent? Maybe it's because the number of changes in the heart is very large, and only the protagonist who changes can be expressed. But the change in Sophie's heart also created a problem. After the change, everything around her became unfamiliar. How can she express this strangeness? It's very simple, change the surroundings, Sophie's husband and children have changed, and the furnishings and decorations of the home have also changed. Everything is different, the audience is confused, how can this be? Everything is unfamiliar? Yes, what the director wants to express is this kind of strangeness. In fact, everything around him, including Sophie's husband, children and her home, has not changed. All this has changed.
Of course, I still didn't understand the second half of the film. I didn't understand what kind of story the director wanted to tell, whether little Monica died or little Sophie died. It seems that in the end, the two personalities of Sophie and Monica successfully coexisted peacefully in Sophie's body, and Sophie finally adapted to the life of split personality.
Speaking of split personality, I can't help but think of the movie "A Beautiful Mind". In the end, Monica occupied Sophie's body, and Sophie's own personality was illusory as another person, a role that "Sophie" herself, that is, Monica, could only see.
This kind of personality mutation that Sophie experienced reminds me of some science fiction novels about idealism and materialism, such as the Japanese fox fairy novel, which is about someone who is psychedelic and sees a fox as a beautiful woman, and after marrying her Think of the muddy fox den as a beautiful big house, and lived with my wife for decades, but only a few days in real life. Another immigrant alien novel is about an immigrant whose brains are tricked after surgery to treat the dark and dirty little coal kiln labor on a new planet as picking fruit when the sun is shining and the flowers are blooming. . There is a deviation between the physical reality and the reality that the brain receives from the senses, which is exactly the hallucination produced by each "Sufi".
