Although it has been given too much symbolic meaning and made it a little difficult to think about, it is still humorous and witty in general, and it is merciless when it comes to exposing corrupt and declining dynasties. It's just that people living in modern times may find it difficult to understand a lot of irony in the film.
Throughout the film, there are floggings against corrupt dynasties and autocratic kingships.
1) "Here lies my wife, the victim of the king's hunting"...Whether it's bird hunting or fishing, the sacrifice is always the common people.
2) "How can there be such a reason, how can there be such a reason, in broad daylight, the poor people are shot and killed"... This line also shows that the civilians are just ants under the control of the king.
3) The king is hypocritical. It can be seen from his old man's shooting that the soldier was surprised, but forced by his arrogance, he could only manually add the hole of the gun. The strong dissatisfaction of the king... don't know if they are really stupid or pretend...
4) The building symbolizes the state machine of the corrupt dynasty, filled with various violent institutions and fake institutions, whose role is to maintain the rule of those in power, or For those in power to satisfy their little hobbies. Every time I hear the voice of the machine in the elevator introducing the various functions of the building layer by layer, I feel emotional.
"On the second floor, the court office, the royal dispute management office...the king's sleeping quarters, the king's steam bath, the king's fountain management office, the king's chamber music hall, the king's guard bugle storage room..."
5) Court life is full of fun, the king As soon as the door of the living room was closed, the attendant put his eyes in the keyhole, put his ear to the door, and motioned to the people around him to be quiet...
6) The king was cruel, because the painter drew cross-eyed, and he ended up 's life.
7) The king is lonely, with only pet dogs in the secret room.
8) The king is timid and can only call the police when he is in danger.
9) The king is helpless and the police can't save her.
10) A new king appeared, and he enslaved the people even more severely and wasted lives.
