"Tear Doom" also easily reminds me of the Cultural Revolution. In the film, emotions are suppressed, everything related to emotions is eliminated, "emotional crimes" are burned alive, suppressed and eliminated. The scene is simply a reproduction of the ten-year catastrophe of the Cultural Revolution. It used to be a dark period of absurd and insane dehumanization, and it was the president of the state who was worshipped by thousands of "foolish people" who initiated this evil struggle. Surprisingly similar to the content of the film.
The background of the film is gray and white, and the clothes are also gray, white and black, with no color, and only a little red collar in the Cultural Revolution will be labeled as a corrupt and degenerate element of the bourgeoisie, and will never be turned over. And our rulers and their families at that time were still searching everywhere in order to watch foreign movies and enjoy a corrupt life.
When the precious Mona Lisa oil paintings were burnt, many precious works of art by ancestors during the Cultural Revolution were also burnt as the so-called "broken four olds", which I feel very sorry for. The looting of culture is first reflected in looting, burning and killing.
This also raises another question: Is communism really necessary? The Utopians are nothing but a fool's ideal. Can human beings really evolve to the point of wanting nothing? Parents, children, husband and wife also have to contribute and share? Personal words and points, behavior must be in accordance with the rules of the Communist Party? Do not allow any alienating thoughts, do not allow any outrageous behavior, do not allow private feelings and possessions? Including freedom? All we have to do is listen? But the premise of doing this is, is it still human beings who lead us? NND! I almost yelled at me.
There are too many similarities between the film and the Cultural Revolution, and it is almost a copy of the Cultural Revolution: expressionless faces, stylized slogans, similar crazy behaviors, lost personalities, rigid thoughts, blind and stupid beliefs... What a ridiculous age it was. It is not surprising that it can happen in China. It's just that one is a fictional movie and the other is a past history.
I don't know if the director and screenwriter were influenced by the Cultural Revolution or imitated George Orwell's "1984", but the movie is far better than either, at least entertaining. John Preston, played by Kristen Bell, is absolutely handsome and cool in black. Some action scenes are almost identical to "The Matrix". Personally, I feel that "Tear Doomsday" is an assembled version, like a combined computer case, not first-class but absolutely useful.
Unfortunately, people are animals that like to live in groups, and they must obey certain rules when living in groups. Freedom is a very luxurious and rare thing. To survive, you must first work, and work must abide by the rules of the company. Everything is based on the orders of the company's leaders. You only need to obey the orders. Those who want to be cool, want to be independent, only the fate of being expelled. In fact, every similar organization is a small sauce jar world.
And the country is a big sauce tank.
