- Rapunzel
, the 2010 animated film of Disney's 2010 animation Rapunzel, is a brand-new "adaptation" work. Most viewers who appreciate this film are moved by the beautiful characters and perfect love in the film, and of course, they are also interested in the twists and turns of the plot. That's right, at least the "look" of the film is.
What I want to say is not that this story is worth watching. Although this is a very good film, in the current mainland China, this film should be banned. I really don't know what the screenwriter thinks. This is clearly an "anti-government" film that "incites" the people to fight for "freedom and democracy" to the end, and is the product of a "philosophy of struggle". If the people in the General Administration understand it, I believe they will definitely get chills down their spines.
The film opens with a story about a magical flower turned into sunlight, occupied by the witch Gothel, who has continued her life for hundreds of years. Afterwards, the kind queen of the emerging kingdom fell ill with an incurable disease. She searched for good medicine and found a magic flower, which saved the queen's life. The magic power of the magic flower was passed on to the fetus in the queen's womb, so that the little princess' hair had the healing function of the magic flower. These are still prologues. Next, the witch Gothel, who was "stolen" and "belonged" to her own magic flower, took action. She did not make a deal with anyone, but directly broke into the palace and stole the infant princess, just before the princess could not tell the difference. When who was his own mother, after that, he built a tower and put the princess under house arrest, deceiving the princess that only inside the tower is safe, and outside the tower is a dangerous world. The story officially begins.
Many people may think that these are just the wedges of the film, and they don't need to pay more attention. The screenwriter probably also understands that the audience cannot focus on the beginning of the story, so it is easy to pass it with simple narration.
In the author's opinion, these introductions are the hidden conceptual basis of the film. Without these introductions, the story will become a superficial castle in the air like the original.
Sunshine, a metaphor for "innate human rights", symbolizes the freedom and democracy that human beings should have. Without freedom and democracy, there will be no development and progress of a society or country; Magic Flower, a metaphor for freedom and democracy is the foundation of social development; Princess, a metaphor for Every commoner who has life and dignity; the unity of the sunshine "magic flower" and the princess, a metaphor for "human rights" is the birthright of the common people; the witch, a metaphor for the evil leader who seizes the freedom and democracy of the people, and uses "Mother" as a metaphor Self-proclaimed, doing things that make use of "children", such as using the princess' hair to prolong her youth and life for herself; high tower, a metaphor for the "high wall" built by "mother" to prevent "children" from escaping her own power; sky lanterns , which is a metaphor for the people's celebration and yearning for freedom and democracy; the
above plots are quite familiar when we go deeper into their meaning...
In the early 20th century, China launched a revolution and achieved success. The bourgeois revolution in Europe in the sixteenth century, the flames burned into the nineteenth century, and the flames of democratic revolution in Russia in the north and China in the east were also ignited. Some people who understood the importance of the democratic revolution, took advantage of the trend of the revolution to establish their own organization and successfully obtained the leadership of "freedom and democracy" at that time. Then came the dictatorship that has now lasted for nearly a century, countless "sweet lies", and the "high wall" that has now been built higher and higher.
Similar to South Korea, West Korea and Libya, isn't it?
This is where Rapunzel's story officially begins.
A thief, Eugene, who entered the tower to hide by chance, helped the girl who yearned for the sky lantern to leave the tower. Rapunzel, who had seen the world outside the tower, felt the atmosphere of freedom and democracy, and had doubts about whether to return to the tower. Rapunzel's doubts fully showed that the children who were fooled and exploited by the hypocritical mother not only hoped to no longer be bound, but also did not want to "betray" the "mother" who claimed to be the most "loving" of them. And that chance, we can call it "Internet".
This looks familiar, how similar to the status quo of Chinese and Chinese Government...
The witch Gothel saw the royal horse Maximus and realized her negligence, so she followed Rapunzel all the way. First, she designed to cause a misunderstanding between Rapunzel and Eugene, and then plotted to frame Eugene to get him arrested, and then betrayed the Stabbington brothers who conspired with him to frame Eugene. In order to achieve the purpose of completely deceiving Rapunzel. And, she really succeeded. Rapunzel really misunderstood Eugene and returned to the false embrace of "mother". Eugene and the Stabbington brothers were also imprisoned in the palace's prison, ready to accept punishment. It seems that Gothel's wishful thinking is indeed playing quite well. She tricks Rapunzel into saying that the tower is built to protect Rapunzel.
Wait, isn't this familiar again? As the "mouthpieces" controlled by the Chinese Government - public media and public opinion, such as CCAV, News Feeds, etc. - advertised, the Mouthful of Lies, inciting and manipulating the people under its jurisdiction, makes them think " The outside world", "human rights", "freedom and democracy" are all dangerous, wrong, and lies, and the various policies they implement are to protect the people. And they also succeeded. Today, many Chinese people really hate Uncle Sam, English Gentleman, Japanese and other countries with freedom and democracy for no reason, although in fact this sentiment is unreasonable, it is a misguided and distorted "patriotic" complex" and "national complex", as well as the wrong "philosophy of struggle" concept that has persisted for many years.
However, the story takes a turn here, and Rapunzel realizes that she is the princess who has been missing for many years, and the so-called "mother" is actually a real "Villain" who is constantly using herself. As Gothel himself said, Bad Guy . Rapunzel, who was bound and bound (which can also be understood as oppression and exploitation, oppressed Rapunzel's freedom, exploited Rapunzel's magical ability) finally rose up and challenged the witch who had deceived him for many years. The witch Gothel finally revealed her true nature and completely tied and suppressed Rapunzel, so when Eugene broke into the tower again, what she saw was a girl who was blindfolded, bound with chains, and huddled against the wall. And, Eugene was also backstabbing by Gothel who was crouching by the window. After that, Gothel intends to take Rapunzel to other places completely out of contact with the outside world.
It feels so familiar again...
For many years, no one would not believe that in this country, many people have indeed fought. But we basically don't know, the reason is that they are likely to have been tied up and imprisoned, more likely to have been eliminated... Rapunzel is lucky, because she still has value, Gothel has not been eliminated. she. But in reality, many Rapunzels are probably gone, because they have no value to use, the only value is that they are chickens that were killed to show the monkeys, reminding the other Rapunzels who are still resisting: this is the end of resistance. ...and, in reality, Gothel also shut down the internet, or turned the internet into a LAN. Here, how similar are West Korea, North Korea and Libya?
However, the screenwriter obviously does not intend to let Gothel win all the way, or, in other words, the ending of Gothel has already been written.
Rapunzel's declaration of resistance does not actually pose much threat to Gothel. Even if Rapunzel continues to fight and stops singing magic songs, Gothel will sing it herself, because Rapunzel's hair is her most important treasure, as long as Rapunzel is alive , her hair is still there, Gothel can continue to live, or she must grow old and perish. And the only way to make Rapunzel willingly follow Gothel is to force Rapunzel to make a deal, in exchange for her freedom with what Rapunzel sees as the most important thing. Gothel seemed to have calculated it, so she didn't hesitate to stab Eugene in the back.
So, Eugene thought of a way - to make Gothel lose her baby forever. He cut off Rapunzel's long hair, which touched Gothel's sore spot, so Gothel threw angrily at the long hair scattered all over the place, but Gothel, who had lost the power of magic, quickly aged, and the mirror reflected an ugly old woman. One last "assistance" of the chameleon Pascal, a panicked Gothel falls out of the tower she built herself. I thought Gothel would fall to pieces, but the "funny" thing was that she didn't, just a dress on the ground. Gothel, who used his magic power to extend his life for hundreds of years, lost his magic power, and his body immediately began to decay. Between the distance from the tower to the ground, it turned into ashes and disappeared into the air. Although Rapunzel, who was by Eugene's side, wanted to hold Gothel, she still had at least love for Gothel in her heart. Obviously, she didn't have the time and ability to save Gothel in time.
Does this sound a little familiar?
Remember when Soliet Union broke up? Why did Soliet Union disintegrate? Because the contradictions between the privileged class they established and the people at the bottom are too deep, the social economy and technology cannot be developed and progressed, and the political system has completely rotted from the inside. Those who have experienced the transition period at that time said that at that time, in Kremlin and Red Square, no one lamented, no one was angry, no one was attached, and the people naturally accepted the fact of disintegration. They said that maybe there was a chance I miss it a little bit, but the disintegration is the general trend and inevitable, because the political system of SU can no longer bring vitality to Russia, and SU has long existed in name only. No one will miss that rotting body.
The Afghanistan and Iraq back then had actually been corrupted from the inside. We always criticized the US for "starting" the war. In fact, the US was just the one who gave the last help and played the role of Pascal. Today, Taliban is a street rat that everyone around the world has killed, and Saddam Hussein has been sent to the gallows by the people he has oppressed for many years.
Let's look at Tunisia and Egypt, where the Rapunzel's struggle has achieved the initial victory, the rotten political system has been shattered, the rulers have long since lost their power, and they have been "invited" by the people, and the next is the beginning of the Rapunzel's new life.
Libya's current situation is unclear, after all, Kaddafi has a strong force and a mouth that constantly lies. We can see from their falsification of so-called "civilian casualties" (having their soldiers change into civilian clothes and pretend to be civilians) that Gaddafi is still fighting back. And Gbagbo from the Cote D'Ivoire. It is not known when they will be crushed, but their ending, like Gothel, will rot from the inside, and then fall away from the stage of their nostalgia, no matter how many years.
There are still some countries that continue to deceive themselves, including North Korea and West Korea. But we have all seen and thought that although these Gothels continue to fool their own people, many of the people are no longer deceived. Many of us have realized that we are Rapunzel, a noble with freedom, democracy and human rights. Humanity. And when these Gothels will lose their magic and die, we don't know yet, but it won't be surprising when it happens, because we know one thing, Gothel is dying, so whenever she rots , can't change her inevitable rotten trend.
When I look at this film from another angle, I find that it is actually a film that "encourages" people to fight hard against Autocracy and Dictatorship, and it also gives a bright ending - Freedom and Democracy will win.
From the point of view of the common people, this cartoon is an "inspirational film", but from the point of view of the Gothels, it is a veritable "incitement film", a "reactionary film" that incites the common people to "resist oppression" and "persist in resistance" ".
In short, I hope that the people in the General Administration can't understand it, so that this film can be imported smoothly, otherwise, this film will be completely banned as a "reactionary film", and its import, translation, and playback are prohibited...
However, those of the General Administration Pigs...get it?
