There is still a slight resistance to "violence aesthetics". "Kill Bill" didn't last for 20 minutes and felt that Sick was too bad, so he had to give up. "Fa" is not to be watched in one go, but in this film, the exaggerated and bright makeup of the characters, the strange decoration of the future British social family, the deliberately lengthened British pronunciation of the tail, and the multiple embedding of the symphony, all make the whole film The film is like a gorgeous stage play. Contrary to Woo's favorite slow-motion motion of white pigeons flying all over the sky, "Fa" uses fast motion to express the whole process of three-some. The protagonist even sang "Singing in the rain" leisurely during the crime.
In "Battle Royale", adults attempt to achieve absolute domination by forcing junior high school students to kill each other, using frightening brutal and hard violence. And the little characters in "Fa" are victims of soft violence. Whether it is "cured" or "recovered", the male protagonist is just like a clockwork orange, being used by politics. Being cured as a so-called "good person" is only because the individual has no choice. I agree with what the priest said, "Goodness should be a choice from the heart." The result is that social violence succeeds in suppressing individual violence.
