Knowing this movie is due to the clip of the movie I saw on Zhihu before.
At that time, Mr. Li Liqun stood at the door and forced a smile to pretend that nothing happened, which made my memory very deep;
Although the clip is a bit of a horror movie, and I absolutely don't dare to watch it, but his performance is like a kind of magic, and he wants you to explore why the hero has such a state of mind.
So, I immediately clicked on this movie and watched it with Mama.
After watching it, to be honest, I feel that this movie is really an excellent work, whether it is character setting, plot arrangement, and scene shooting, it is impeccable.
But the kind of despair it conveys is a force that strikes directly at the soul.
Please put away your indifference for a while
The male protagonist played by Mr. Li Liqun when he was young is not like the beard and staring eyes that I saw in some TV dramas when I was a child. His eyes are a bit small, and he looks honest, even a little cowardly .
His first appearance was at home, in a conversation with his wife before going to work.
He loves his wife very much and supports her as a free-thinking writer.
But in the blink of an eye, he became a "villain" who made small reports and framed friends for many years. It was inevitable that he was a little dishonest.
His plot continues to advance, making people want to know what kind of person he is.
I think there are two plots that enrich the character of Li Liping.
A description derived from her wife. She felt that her husband did not trust her, that she would not cheat, but that he didn't care. He was always a "repeated person" who repeatedly went to work, repeated meals, and repeated sleep. In such a cyclic but single life trajectory, he Always like that little cog in the status quo.
Another is a description derived from his police friend. It can be seen that he does not like to socialize, he loves his wife very much, and he can vaguely feel that he seems a little unworthy of Yu Fen.
What kind of person is Yufen? She advocates freedom, like a poet who can't sleep; but she doesn't have the ability to fully pursue freedom, so she works after graduation, and when she can't write anymore, she is very hesitant to go to work.
What did she write? school life. What is campus life like? The beautiful scenery, the moon before the flowers. Moreover, her male protagonist will always be her old lover. After becoming a housewife and drawing a dungeon into a prison, her heart is very eager when she always has to constantly seek its inspiration through the love of her youth.
But Li Liping never asked what she wrote and what she was thinking. He didn't understand, so he only loved her in the way he thought was right. For example, figure out how to make money. With no background, in order to get promoted, he can only falsely accuse his colleagues by any means when the new leader takes office, even if the colleagues still talk to him with confidence in the end.
At this time, the reunion of the old lover after a long absence is undoubtedly the fuel for Yu Fen Hong Xing to come out of the wall. The old lover knew more about love and love, and was more willing to understand her thoughts and thoughts through novels , which undoubtedly satisfied Yu Fen's pink fantasy as a housewife, so she had that private affair.
But at this time, the relationship between Li Liping and Yu Fen still has a chance to mend. Because Yu Fen wants children and wants to rejuvenate the family, which means more stability for women. Maybe she has understood at this time that it is unrealistic to live in her girlish fantasy forever, and she needs a complete family.
At this time, the appearance of the harassing call was like a powerful force, pushing her back into her original fantasy; her husband's "suspected cheating" became the reason for her to leave.
I really don't want to judge her too much about the bad girl who made the harassing calls, because she's really bad to the core.
She is beautiful, but her character is shattered by the influence of her original family. Prostitution, fraud, and murder have become her means of making a living.
She is the photographer's muse, the embodiment of the dream he pursues, but she is so bad that she stole all the photographer's equipment and almost sold it (in the end it didn't sell because the old friend came back, and she was not short of money ), and finally the photographer gave up the red rose in his heart and returned to his girlfriend.
I know my dream has come to an end
Since Yu Fen's novel won the award, the photographer discovered the truth and told the hero, the plot began to turn into a nightmare.
During the period from when Yu Fen moved out of the apartment to when she decided to leave, she never explained to the male protagonist. Although in the old den, she didn't see the girl who made the harassing call.
But she told herself that her husband had cheated, and she could go back to her fantasy with peace of mind.
Knowing that her husband knew the truth, when she explained it to her, all she got back was "Fictions are novels, don't you even distinguish between true and false?"
When people receive information, they are always more inclined to filter out what they don’t want to hear, and keep what they think is close to them.
Here, Yu Fen starts to evade marriage confidently with the sentence "The novel is false".
The male protagonist was very angry and even wanted to vent his emotions through violence, but he held back.
He returned to the unit and was told that the person who was promoted to the section chief was not himself.
With no money and money, he can only think of the police friend who told him, "Good friends should contact me more, don't come to me when I have something like this," so he came to his house to drink with him.
But he was a cowardly person. He avoided his failure and pretended that everything was turning around, so the most chilling monologue appeared.
His cowardice had already doomed him to death, but everyone in the audience still hoped that he could kill those who bullied him, so there was the first dawn scene.
In that scene, he shot his leader, broke into the lover's house and shot the lover, but he was not willing to hurt his wife.
He also found the girl who made the harassing call, and seemed to be ready to shoot her too.
But this time the police broke in.
Suddenly, like waking up from a dream, everyone woke up.
This is the second dawn, and the real dawn.
The police found their gun missing, as in a dream, perhaps an ominous omen.
However, it wasn't anyone in the dream who died, but the hero himself, who committed suicide by swallowing a gun in the bathroom of the policeman's house.
At this time, Cai Qin's singing sounded, and Yu Fen suddenly had morning sickness. She wanted to have a complete family.
The end of the play.
some thoughts
At first we would think that the hero Li Liping is a terrorist: he betrayed his friends but did not get a promotion, he lost his wife's love forever because of a prank, and what the world owes him should be returned to him.
But it wasn't until the end that I realized that everyone around him was the catalyst that led to his death, and everyone was a terrorist in life .
The wife writes the desires in her heart in words, writes it to everyone, and writes it to her lover, so that the old lover can take advantage of it;
The bad girl on the phone always regards ruining other people's lives as her own pleasure;
As for the old lover, the old friend who seems to be the hero, seems to be at ease about destroying other people's families.
Who among them does not deserve to be called a "terrorist"?
There may be many people who think that diaosi and goddesses are destined to be inappropriate. Even if there are no prank calls and no old lovers, their lives will still be broken;
But in this regard, I have a slightly different view.
I think that since Yu Fen wanted to have a child, she actually had the intention of waking up from a dream . Having a child and living an ordinary life, perhaps freedom will become a treasure locked in a treasure chest, and it will become a thing of the past.
But her lover, that prank call, kept teasing the seed of selfishness in her heart.
In the end, she still did not persevere.
This feeling is like Scarlett is always entangled with Ashley before she finally wakes up, and it stems from Ashley's ambiguity.
Once people become ordinary and mediocre, what does it matter if they are unhappy or not?
On the other hand, Li Liping is not a perfect person: he has no money or background, and accidentally married the goddess in everyone's mind, but he ignores her, doesn't even know what she is doing, and always "takes it for granted". the way she treats her wife.
What he does is to make life better, to make life better the way he wants it to.
But I always feel that he is a person who can't feel happiness very much.
He neglects interpersonal communication, and there are some elements of escape in the process of getting along with his wife.
Even after discovering that life has failed miserably, he can only cowardly choose to end his own life.
If there really is such a person, does he deserve to have a beautiful girl; if he does not deserve to have it, should such a person be born with a "death sentence"?
Perhaps thinking of my own experience a while ago, I always feel that this movie is constantly torturing me.
Although I can't tell where exactly it bothered me so much.
On the other hand, this depressing film is a delicate work that deserves scrutiny.
Bad girls, photographers, cops, and even the photographer's reading girlfriend are all essential elements of this film.
With the setting of these characters' personalities, the plot progression of this movie has also become very natural and smooth.
The composition and shooting at the beginning of the film, including the photographer's later studio and the scenery outside the window, are quite artistic.
It's really shocking to see such a great movie in the 1980s.
In the past, when I came across a movie I liked, I might watch it back and forth several times in a few years; however, after watching this movie, I really have to have a strong heart. The work that brought me this feeling last time, It is the novel version of "The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko". Although I liked that novel very, very much and put the book in the easiest place on the shelf, but I never had the courage to pick it up.
Then, listen to this song by Cai Qin! It's also the ending song of the movie.
While listening to this song, I wrote down some of my thoughts.
This song is very gentle, but every sentence is aimed at the plot of the movie,
Hope "Tonight you make everything as usual, give me tenderness one last time"
Please pretend that you will miss me
Please put away your indifference for a while
Pour me a glass of wine as usual
let me enjoy a moment of tenderness
Please pretend that you will miss me
Please put away your indifference for a while
please hug me gently hug me
Give me tenderness one last time
I know my dream has come to an end
you don't belong to me anymore
Please keep everything as it was tonight
Tomorrow I will be alone
/
Please pretend that you will miss me
Please put away your indifference for a while
please hug me gently hug me
Give me tenderness one last time
I know my dream has come to an end
you don't belong to me anymore
Please keep everything as it was tonight
Tomorrow I will be alone
I know my dream has come to an end
you don't belong to me anymore
Please keep everything as it was tonight
Tomorrow I will be alone
