If it is said that "Painted Skin" was still seriously under the sign of "adapting Liaozhai Zhiyi", based on classical characters, it wrote modern junior stories, and now "Painted Skin 2" is the only one left. The story and characters are basically new, and only Xiaowei's identity as a fox demon can be related to Pu Songling. Therefore, it is inevitable that some open and modern things will be added to the screenwriter and consciousness, so, This is more than an infatuation, the idea of "smelling the fragrance of azaleas" is simply a feminist counterattack.
First of all, the dominant role in the film are two women, a woman's heart. Princess Jing and Xiao Wei are both independent, emotional and responsible. The former is precious as a princess, with high martial arts skills, with the most ardent heart in the world, with the deepest love and perseverance in her heart - even if Huo Xin escaped for eight years, even if Huo Xin did not exist in the world. This kind of love is non-utilitarian, the most sincere, and independent of the existence of the other party and the world. Such an independent and courageous Princess Jing, only because of her persistence, only because of the most beautiful and childish emotions and memories in her heart, even the most precious self is willing to give up, put on someone else's skin, use someone else's identity, What a precious and terrifying sacrifice it is to just stay by the side of the one you love.
Not to mention Xiao Wei, as a beautiful fox demon, he has seen through the weakness and lies in the hearts of most men in the world, so he can eat them calmly in the face of them. Those dirty hearts are better not to have. But even this sober and omnipotent Xiao Wei still recites "There was a man once, he said he loved me, and then I believed it." She taught Princess Jing the principle that "men only need skin looks", and in the end she wiped out herself, gave Princess Jing a heart, and gave her a good face (or in other words, she died to give Princess Jing a good face, and she gave her a good face. Donate a heart... In fact, it is more in line with the intention of this article). If she wants to be a person, she has to do it, at any cost and regardless of the consequences.
The embrace of Princess Jing and Xiao Wei in the water is a real acquaintance. The two women have the same soul, so they can share a heart and beat together.
Look at Huo Xin again, what else would he do except shoot with his eyes closed?
Compared with Princess Jing, he is a coward in love. If it is said that he has been away for eight years, it is to exile himself, punish himself, repent of his past dereliction of duty every day, keep love silently in his heart, and wish Princess Jing to find something else. Man... But fall, he clearly knows that Princess Jing loves him, shouldn't he love someone and give her what she wants most? Shouldn't she be willing to give up all her wishes? Shouldn't I take her away to sing the boundless world is my love? Just like him drinking and indulging in the "wrong" of the past is precisely the "right" of giving up the future, not to mention being easily bewitched by Xiao Wei. From the perspective of Princess Jing, I despise Huo Xin.
Compared with Xiaowei, he is a mess. Look at how much Xiaowei has done for her dream, escaped from the ice hell, feared day and night, and finally found the opportunity, all the appearance, demon spirit, and practice are all gone, even if she accidentally enters the Heavenly Wolf Kingdom scam, it is her wish to be a human once. Also realized, can sing a song calmly. But as for Huo Xin, facing the woman of his dreams, he didn't dare to reach out and have it; his deepest understanding of himself was in "These two-color eyes hurt me", director and screenwriter, you let Huo Xin represent men The compatriots poked their eyes, all the role is to relieve the hatred of all the sisters inside and outside the screen. From Xiaowei level, I also despised Huo Xin.
Going back to the topic of skin appearance, before Huo Xin testified to himself, "What men want is beauty" Xiao Wei said earlier, "Everyone loves beauty, you are not wrong" Princess Jing understood it long ago, as women, they I haven't competed on this issue, I haven't poked any man in the eye, I have long been detached, rational, deeply aware of and accepted the fact that men are sensory animals, and I can still devote myself to loving a certain man. Can't it be said , Is a woman's love a broad, tolerant, sacred, and mother-like existence?
Whether it's joking or serious, look at "Snow White: The Magic Mirror", where Snow White, who once only screamed and fainted, fought beasts to save the prince, but the prince was easily taken for a pug; In the "Painting Wall" of the "Painting" series, there is a utopia built by a woman, and the queen respectfully told the fairies that "there are only two kinds of men, one is willing to lie to you for a while, and the other is willing to lie to you forever"... "Painted Skin 2" is the biggest The meaning is to let us recognize that women have seen through and despised men, and the era when women are superior to men is about to happen. Women should be brave, persistent, honest, decisive, deeply loved, sacrificed, and victorious. Men, please shrink back and cry.
