I love kind-hearted people - a story of Peeta from The Hunger Games (Part A)

She's the Mockingjay, she's the fire of the revolution, and Peeta is just an accessory. He was left in the Hunger Games arena, and while it was Peeta that President Cohen wanted to save, the others disagreed. So Peeta became Snow's kidnapper, a mutant. How to make a gentle and kind person, a boy who loves Katniss unconditionally, become someone who will kill her when they meet him? In the third and fourth films of the film, there is no direct picture to express this process, but the shape change of Peeta is used to convey to the audience the torture he is suffering. What is the brainwashing process of the killer bee? How did he face Avacs being tortured to death? How did he get blood splattered on the camera after he escaped his mind control and warned the people of the Thirteenth District that they were in danger on live TV? How he and Johanna were familiar with each other's shouts in the cell...these movies don't explain it.
After being rescued, during the treatment process, Peeta couldn't tell the difference between reality and fantasy in these implanted horror memories. Katniss brutally publicly humiliated Peeta as a mutant. She was angry because the old Peeta was never coming back! Haymitch was right to blame Katniss, how would Peeta treat her instead of her?



In this true-or-false game, it's not whether Peeta has a flash in his head, it's that there is true and false. After experiencing both mental and physical torture, Peeta is looking at the so-called memory of the past with a third party, and the true and false are already intertwined in his soul. From Katniss's first kiss for "survival" to her request for marriage from Peeta for "survival", this is a well-known fake "game", and it is painful in itself. That's why Peeta locked himself in his room and didn't come out for a long time. True love is painful for falsehood.
"I must have loved you at that time."
"Indeed ."
"Did you love me at that time?"
Katniss
couldn't answer this question head-on. She was longing for Peeta and obstructing her, demanding and abandoning. She had been terrified of the relationship and felt guilty for Peeta. Peeta's love became a luxury for her, which she gradually embraced. She used to be mortal in order to keep Peeta alive; she also used to forget that Peeta was as easy as everyone else when Gale showed up. Her pain lies in Snow's "hijacking", which allows Peeta to discover her true side, and she is no longer a perfect girl. However, she didn't realize that Peeta, who loved her unconditionally, knew all this. In other words, Katniss couldn't face a real self after all.
What would she do if her beloved sister Prim had not been killed by a bomb designed by Gale?

    Foreshadowing...forging people to fall asleep. A journey of sadness for the image spokesperson.
