The point of the film is not what you say about him, it's that after you watch she will mysteriously in ways you can't feel Entering the depths of your consciousness, when you are unaware, the inner consciousness of others has come to you through the cloak of the movie, quietly entering your consciousness, combining, and giving birth to a world of only personal consciousness. The movie, this movie is hidden in the mind as a memory, she will be reunited with other works in the mind that are combined with external information in the mind, and the descendants will be endless.
I can't see the inside of my mind, I can only selectively watch the outside, watching movies, condensing the product of another small world of consciousness, making me ignore the real world that I can see from the corner of my eye, the real world often seems so tedious.
"Pan's Labyrinth" creates a labyrinth-like movie, and if your thinking goes right, it's close to the director's expressive intent. There are as many audiences as there are new films in the minds of individuals. Some people may only reach the entrance of the labyrinth in their consciousness. Near the entrance is the imaginary Spain under Franco. Some people are hideous, some have hidden dreams, some are submissive, and some try to change all this. Some people will follow Ofelia into the labyrinth. As long as you enter, there must be an exit. There are as many exits as there are spectators. It doesn't matter whether you are close to the director's intention. What matters is that you have changed when you come out. A moment mysteriously changes without you knowing it.
The dullness of reality creates the desire to watch movies, and movie watching itself is a part of reality. Movies are also part of reality in memory. Film criticism has created another world of viewing, a part of reality that is used to eliminate boredom but is always a part of the boring world.
I have a desire to express, and at this time, my desire to express is closely related to the reality I live in and to watching movies.
Guillermo del Toro has his desire to create, to express.
The princess of the underworld is curious about the sun world, Ofelia is eager to enter the underworld, and Pan tells Ofelia that she is actually the princess of the underworld, but she has forgotten everything about the underworld. In Ofelia's fairy tale world, there is a tree whose shape is like yin and yang, and its root is like the entrance of female genitals. The golden toad swallows countless bugs and spit out only one key.
Mercedes also hides a key, which she uses to protect the life she wants to protect. Those lives breed life in the terrifying sun world, resisting Vidal, an officer who ruthlessly devours life. He is so evil, like the hell demon called by humans in the sun world. .
In this way, she was also born, but the mother died.
If there is one life, one must die, then it is just reincarnation. What Pan God promised to Ofelia is to become the princess of the underworld forever, and there is no reincarnation. Ofelia's first desire was a one-way desire, swallowing the forbidden fruit in her mouth. Still in the world of reincarnation. But she used the key to find the knife, Mercedes hid the knife and opened the mouth of the general Vidal, so Pan gave Ofelia a second chance, this is the second chance to give eternal life, the woman took the knife, the man was inserted , the suture of the corner of the mouth is the completion of the second birth.
It is also an end. Vidal will die. Before his death, he completed his mission to help Ofelia return to the underworld and live forever with his relatives in the underworld. He only wanted his son to stay in the Yangjie, to remember the time of his death, the pocket watch recorded the moment, but no one would pass this memory on to his son. His pocket watch is clockwise.
At the beginning of the film, the direction of the rotating picture is also clockwise, and Ofelia's blood is reversed.
Vidal's worldview is that you live or die, so he can only die, and dead is dead.
Mercedes confronted Vidal, completely confronted Vidal, she chose life, she did not let Vidal's son die, Ofelia did not choose to let her brother die, Pan fulfilled his promise, Ofelia returned to the underworld and lived forever in the underworld .
However, after she goes back, she will still be boring, and it will become a paradox forever.
Still can't escape reincarnation. Reincarnating between two worlds, but immortal, both worlds exist at the same time. "Pan's Labyrinth" creates a movie like a Mobius circle. The narrative structure is like a Mobius circle. The movement of the camera at the beginning is like the flip of the paper, creating a strange monohedron.
A bizarre Mobius-like movie, two worlds seem to be two worlds but they are the same world, eternal reincarnation is one, the two worlds of yin and yang coexist in one world and are separated from each other, Ofelia and Mercedes are two people and one world. It is a person who can be both male and female, and female and male. No beginning, no end
The Mobius circle made of paper rings will not become two circles when cut along the center line, but one circle, an ordinary circle.
An ordinary circle is a one-way cycle of life and death, separated by yin and yang.
The world I live in is still a boring world of duality, or my conscious world is still a boring dualistic world, so my movie viewing experience can only be ordinary reincarnation, and my expressions are only boring words. , rational division, trying to mourning the film again and again in consciousness, and then entering another round of viewing.
For the sound and picture world created by the film, the short-lived warmth that flesh and blood can provide is quickly forgotten. Touched or not touched will be forgotten.
Expression can only be limited to binary.
Watching movies and commenting on movies can only be two worlds.
