Tribute and Elegy: It was not Bill who was killed, but the whole era of Hong Kong films~

If I'm a killer, I can't leave trouble if I have the opportunity to kill myself. Those who hesitate are dead killers. You must strangle your own conscience and hesitation beforehand with the same ferocity as strangling a baby. Retaining the alertness of a feral cat who is asleep with one ear on the ground is the killer who is most likely to live longer. Rather be overly sensitive to any bells and whistles, and even allow some superstitions or ominous signs to be believed, otherwise, what else can we believe? Thinking about life is much harder than killing people! Long-term money and power are the ones to worry about, we just live happily and numbly in the moment when we kill. Those who think that they can wash their hands or live in peace are all fairy tales among killers. In addition, every killer is also obsessed with something like ordinary people, just a little crazy. For example, the props to kill, the knife and the gun, such as the car that will not turn off at the critical moment, such as a courtyard or a hat and a flute. There are also people who are obsessed with some abnormal emotion: I, Beatrice, are no exception. The wise and graceful Bill, like a father, was all mine before, taught me to appease me and gave me one list after another, and I firmly believed that I was his most important and sharpest knife. I firmly believe that his arrangements for me will never go wrong. Until I have his child, it doesn't matter to me whether I can die for him at any time, and whether I can live until tomorrow. But, a child has too much meaning, the meaning that can't be let go, if I am a male killer, I can hire a nanny to raise her, and she will not be discovered by the enemy. Since there is not much time together, one person will die first. Not too sad. But I'm not, the kind of life I used to spurn from the start of vomiting grips me more quickly than the enemy. There was a heartbeat in my body, which obviously became weaker and easier to be slaughtered, but for the first time, I had a longer expectation: Is it a male or a female? Is it tall or thin? Laughter or introvert? Is it blond like me? What kind of people will you fall in love with in the future? Will I learn everything as fast as I do...such as killing people. and then killed. Do not! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I think Kill Bill is a summary and reflection of Quentin's collection of many anime and martial arts: 1. It must be cool and cool, but it doesn't have to be beautiful or beautiful. It should be too far from reality (so yellow sports uniforms and school uniform girls and even meteor hammers can be used, but the pigeons still have 300 rounds of battles and no one is seriously injured) 2 Everyone has their own behavior patterns and motivations, Jianghu loyalty and loyalty and filial piety The Chinese don't believe it anymore (such as Infernal Affairs), so let's just forget about it now. What's more, the family and affection of the main theme of Europe and the United States are politically correct. This is the bottom line that the godfather has from the beginning. (So ​​when you encounter a child, the fight will be suspended automatically, and the child will not touch a finger, especially cold violence and deception, and in the end Bill should be damned because he dared to instill in children the idea that it might be right to kill? Do you think I'm a killer Hajime with no lower limit? ) 3 After the revenge is over, it can only be empty, and can't live a happy life like a fairy tale. Therefore, the reclusive killer has to die in the sequel if he doesn't die in this episode (the killer Leon and his brother in the raid), and the eastern logic of joining the world is now out of date. The killer's worldview is no different from the world understood by straight men now, but it's just another way of adapting to society intensely, with a high degree of intertwining involution and lying flat. 4 So I understand now that I can understand the ending of thank you is to thank Bill for not killing this child, but also thank this child for letting her see more ways of life and possibilities in this world, which is the way the world is. Not the "efficient yet brutal" look the Bills assumed. This film is a martial arts gangster film. It is better to say that it is an elegy to the old times like "Don Quixote" and "Once Upon a Time in the West". In the City of God and Pulp Fiction, men survive from the same darkness and can only rely on faith or God. trace. (Or a desolate death like a godfather.) And a woman can reconnect with the world by relying on a new life, relying on her own emotions. No need for gods. (In fact, Terminator and Alien have the same values. Those who cannot turn emotions into power, regardless of the appearance of robots, especially males, are just consumables. Women are more likely to master rationality and sensibility at the same time, and have the real key to the world.) — —You who like watching movies and don’t pity tears and anger in them are stealing the key. You are thanking Bill for not killing this child, but also thanking this child for letting her see more ways of life and possibilities in this world, which is the way the world is.
