"On the Beach Alone at Night" is the only recent movie that decided to write a review 20 minutes before watching it. Although Kim Min-hee and Hong Sang-soo's infidelity is a lot to talk about, but the director and actor are not involved. The meaning given to the character by the identity, to watch this movie, you will get different feelings from person to person.
The film is divided into two parts. The first part is 27 minutes long. It tells the story of actress Yingxi avoiding domestic scandals about herself and the director in a small European town. She is in a foreign land, but she is always fettered by "that person". Through Yingxi's rough words, the audience can only imagine the general outline of a man in his mind, with a family and a little bald head. The rest are unknown. At the end of the first segment of the film, Yingxi walks towards the sea, the camera pans to the right and then back again, Yingxi is already carried to the distance by a black back like a dead man.
At the beginning of the second segment, the credits appeared again, and gradually, Jin Minxi's face became brighter, and next to him was the red sofa. At this time, the audience knew that she was in the theater. When I saw this for the first time, I firmly believed that the first paragraph was all the bridges in the second paragraph that Kim Min Hee watched and starred in. The reason for the confusion between reality and film is largely due to The repetition of the credits makes it easy for people to regard this film as a director, and the actors themselves are reflexive in their art.
Yingxi is doing a deep reflection on herself, on men, on love, and on loneliness all the time. The men in black appearing twice in this film only show their backs, which can be interpreted as a male threat. It can be interpreted as a kind of love that reaches a certain point and is unfamiliar to each other. The first time a man appeared and carried Young-hee away from the sea, it might have been a relief. The second time in Young-hee's hotel room, the man wiped the glass with all his might, as if wiping away the past. Hong Shangxiu is noncommittal about the appearance of "man", so this paragraph is that the benevolent sees the benevolence, and the wise sees the wisdom.
For the male characters in the film, Young Hee's performance is very interesting. Outside the theater, he clearly saw Senior Sang Yuan but didn’t go up to say hello. After being accused by Sang Yuan of pretending not to know him, he used the delicateness and responsiveness unique to women to talk about the release time of the movie. In a sentence: "You seem to have become mature, a little older but feminine." This is the first time to look at Yingxi from a male perspective. Therefore, when seeing Mingzhu later, Yingxi seemed to be trying to reverse his weakness. Yingxi explained that Soo was getting old and dark, and asked him if he had a medical examination. When he was old, Mingzhu laughed incredulously, and Mingzhu said that Younghee should get married and have children. This is probably the most deadly attack on women. Here is the second male look. Functionalizing women is often more terrifying than pure admiration. The dialogue between the two successfully attracted the attention of Ming-soo's lover (the owner of the coffee shop). The lover asked Ming-soo to pick beans in order to show his initiative. Under the coercion of the other party, Ming-soo seemed to have no dignity at all. The relationship between men and women is In a tug-of-war, he exhausted my profits, and the enemy defeated me.
The most exciting part of the film is the meeting between Yingxi and the director in a dream. It seems that the two of them must meet each other in order to vent the accumulated anger after years of mutual tolerance, mutual love, and mutual hurt. As Tong Young-hee said, there is nothing more irritating than the director's filming of his and his most private, obscure, and darkest side of love to the public. Below the surface of love is a bloody wound, so why untie its bright skin and reveal its most unbearable side. Young-hee's emotions exploded here. She yelled that she was a bomb, destructive, torturing the people around her and destroying them. As everyone knows, her destructiveness is the self-defense of having experienced thousands of deceptions and injuries. When Young-hee asked why he loved her, the director said very frankly: "Because you are beautiful, I like to do things with beautiful people." Here is the third male perspective.
Is this the answer Yingxi wants to hear? of course not. At the dinner table in the middle of the film, Yingxi tried to attribute the frustration of love to the weakness and disappointment of the male group, so he showed an inexplicable mutual pity between the same sex to Sang Yuan's wife. This may not be the real love between the same sex. But Yingxi heard the most touching thing from this woman: "You are very smart, you are really smart." In the eyes of men, Yingxi is regarded as a beautiful object of appreciation and a functional reproductive tool , then in the eyes of the same sex, her charm comes from the frankness of her character, the purity of her thoughts, and her attitude towards things. The script read by the director comes from Chekov's "About Love", which is a novel about the discussion of love and morality. The following is an excerpt. In this private room, our eyes met, we both lost our original spiritual strength, I hugged her, she pressed her face to my chest, tears flowed from her eyes; I kissed her Her face, her shoulders, her tear-stained hands, ah, how unfortunate I am with her! I told her that I love her. With burning pain in my heart I realized how unnecessary, how small, how vain all those things that prevent us from loving each other. It dawned on me that if a man is in love, he should consider it in terms of something higher and more important than happiness or misfortune, sin or virtue in the worldly sense, otherwise he should consider it nothing at all .
Love is obviously related to morality, but it is not the same as morality. It is only a proper balance between love and morality that will create a good relationship.
Where in the world are there any real talents and beautiful women, but they are only hurt and hurt others day after day. In this case, why struggle in the sea of love, because people always have greed, every person before going to sea Everyone will feel that the sea is not deep, and the temptation of the sea is irresistible. Moreover, everyone has the desire to taste the forbidden fruit and not be punished. Until that day, someone put a hot, bloody heart that was about to stop beating. When you are watched by thousands of eyes in front of you, you realize that love has already been stripped of the last bit of dignity.
