it is already very late to watch this film. After reading the short review, the interpretation of this film is roughly divided into two groups. One is to bring in Hong's personal experience and derail the director. Forcibly whitewashing the theory; the other type starts with the relationship between men and women, just like the analysis of Hong Fu's works.
Hong Sangxiu is an interesting person. Obviously the whole world is talking about his scandal of cheating with Kim Min-hee, but he decided to film this "scandal", and he also gave Kim Min-hee the throne of actress in Berlin with this film. Hong can almost be regarded as a relatively prolific director in the peninsula film industry in recent years. You must know that he can make a film ("Claire's Camera") by the way when he goes to the film festival. But each of his films has almost a single style, regardless of the narrative structure, the theme of the performance, and even the cast team. Lee Sun-kyun, Jung Jae-young, Jung You-mi, and his current girlfriend, Kim Min-hee, and others.
What can I say, the males and females in Hong's films in the past seem to be completely different species. Men are just as weak and incompetent. They evade key issues, but they are pitiful, but this is a true portrayal of today's "Phallus aphasia". No wonder the men in Hong Sang-soo's films are either film directors, painters, or writers. . The female image is simple but also more complicated. Minzhen played by Lee Yoo-young in "You and You", Hae-won played by Jung Eun-chae in "Not Anyone's Daughter Hae-won", and Sun-hee played by Jung You-mi in "Ok Hee's Picture" , is a kind of rescuer's attitude into the world of men, different from the traditional patriarchal society's "acquisition and acquisition" relationship, Hong's films always make men approaching "aphasia", and women stretch out a pair of Mary's merciful hands rescued. The so-called love has become a kind of "giving" from women to men. Although men's "worship" seems to be pious, it is not very clever. Said it was stupid.
According to Lacanian psychoanalysts, in the growth process of an infant, it must go through two stages in order to form an independent individual, one is the original self to be formed through the mirror stage; the other is to experience a complete Philippine In the Phallic stage, the mother's desire was overcome through the Oedipus complex, and the phallic center and the lack of the matriline were identified. It is clinically manifested as the period when the infant gradually recognizes the fact that only men have penises. In Freud's biologicalist tendencies, Phallus and Penis seem to have equivalent meanings, while Lacan's Phallus tries to gradually strip away the original biological level, making Phallus completely a A psychoanalytic vocabulary. He said: Phallus is an absolute signifier, there is no signifier of the signified, only the signifier of the signifier.
Phallus is the eternal shadow, symbol and illusion behind the discourse environment, so why should the shadow itself be related to the gender of men? There seems to be no other reason than the accumulation of culture and the biological meaning of the etymology. Hong's films have always been known for their "long and awkward dialogue". In fact, many of them are a provocation to the male position of the center of the phallus. How could phallus' desires converge with the needs of men? Or, in today's discourse order, male characters have become increasingly "aphasia", and Pheleus, who is linked to males, has apparently left the scene.
In the film "Night by the Sea Alone", there is a very interesting scene of indoor dialogue. Several friends gather at home (we learn from later that their identities are independent filmmakers and actors respectively), halfway through drinking. Suddenly someone mentioned that Yongxi is more attractive, it seems to be a kind of inner maturity after suffering, Mingzhu and Tianyou senior quickly added that she has always been so beautiful, Yongxi just followed a faint smile, and someone else Q, doesn't Yong Hee have a man (boyfriend)? Yongxi also smiled and replied: Do you want to get close to me? Many, on the street, in bakeries, but all too obvious.
In contrast, Do-hee (seemingly the girlfriend of Senior Myung-soo?) sitting across from him was not so wise, and asked anxiously: I have been through torment, why haven't I become beautiful/Where is my charm? Only got the perfunctory evaluation of "full personality".
Now look at a passage like this: Two women, no matter what their faces are (Kim Min Hee is definitely prettier), but their dominance of the conversation is vastly different.
Do-hee seems to want to dominate the evaluation of her identity as a woman, she is more proactive and positive, but the purpose of being proactive is still the evaluation of men. On the surface, Yongxi obeys the evaluation of men, but at a higher level, she pursues the dominant establishment of her own identity. Interestingly, Yongxi also talked about in the conversation, "The men there are all great and gentle, and it is very big." Senior Tianyou asked, "Is it really big?" Yongxi smiled and nodded. This is amazing. It seems like a joke, but it directly points out that the male identity itself is also deficient and castrated. In ordinary Lacanian narratives, people only have realistic expressions of what they have. Philly's desire. Women want to be paired with a phallus symbol, or directly expressed, because women aspire to be phallus, requiring that they must abandon certain aspects of her femininity to be what she is currently not, she wants to be desired, to be loved , while the signifier of self-desire is assumed to be in the male object that appears to have a "Phallus". Therefore, when Lacan scholars examine the gender perspective, they believe that in thousands of years of civilization, women's lack of sexual satisfaction is more tolerable, because they affirm the fact that they lack phallus, which makes women's own desire perspective. Neglected, but also inherently less repressed in desire for women than for men.
When Yong-hee rhetorically said to the two male seniors that people in other places are "bigger there", it obviously implies a gender discourse in which "the lack of male phallus". Temporarily serving as a signifier of power and desire, although males themselves possess a phallus in the true biological sense, this phallus is incomplete in psychoanalysis, or, in other words, it has an actual reference, that is, a biological entity. Penis in the sense, as for the full Phallus, is still lacking; since it is lacking in itself, men can never provide women with the phallus they need, since phallus can never be obtained as a signifier Refers to the signifier), the so-called central worship of Phyllis has left the scene, so Yongxi actually expressed a mockery of the patriarchal political discourse system.
