Cherish your wife, she is all you can have - to a man.

Food color also. As Kubrick's last work, the theme of the film returns to the gender. The incision in the film is very small, and it is the process of the couple from estrangement to reconciliation. The mixed morality, Religion, marriage, capital and power in the mais still make this a great work. Haruki Murakami is very good at integrating personal stories into the background, which is intriguing.

Apart from the front and back (when two people), the surrounding movement camera (when a group of people) constitutes the main way of moving the camera in this work. The former can focus on "Kubrick's gaze", the wife, the man in black, the priest... But only without the gaze of the male protagonist Bill. The surrounding motion camera is reminiscent of Zhuang Zhou's "in the ring", which is actually a perspective of gazing at others, and in the process, we are all spectators.

The story unfolds from a friend's introduction, which seems to be the way it often moves the story forward in a Western context. At the initial banquet, Bill and his wife were in contact with the other and the other, and it should have been the two of them together, but in fact they were both walking on the edge of leaving the track. Here, Bill met his pianist friend Nick. Back at home, the two had a quarrel, and the dialogue about the relationship between beautiful women and other men brought out a certain thinking of the male director. This is the first time a long dialogue paragraph scene appears in the film. Later, when Bill left, and when he was going to have an affair with the old lover, the appearance of another man prevented this from happening. On the street, the lost and restless Bill met a strange woman, and when he arrived at her home, a call from his wife once again shattered his urge to try - from the scene behind, of course, it was his wife who saved him a handful. Bill came to the bar and remembered the nick he met before. He got a password to go to the castle, which is the name of a song. Going his own way, he decided to give it a try - of course, he accidentally killed his friend. This is a metaphor for the victim. When it comes to the castle, in fact, about this mysterious land, there has already been the intervention of literary works, such as Watanabe Junichi's red castle, Kafka's castle, here, as intelligent creatures, people lead everything and exert their own imagination. Force to practice the game, this is the entertainment method of the upper class, so once an intruder enters, it will inevitably lead to sacrifice-ex-queen, as the Holy Mother, saves the male protagonist. This once again reflects the imaginary gratitude of male directors to the opposite sex during the creative process, and it is they who are the supplements of the other half and save us. In the end, the mystery of the story is revealed. To put it bluntly, it is still the estrangement between the group and the group. Although Bill and Victor are nominal friends, they are ultimately separated from each other. After all the turmoil, bill returns to the family, and the movie ends with the last line about amour.

Perhaps it was Kubrick, who was created at this time. As a middle-aged person, after experiencing the prosperity of the world, he realized the beauty of the family after all, so he used a work to call us back to the family and back to loving ourselves. around people. As the work of a male director, the film still reflects the deep fantasy of men towards the opposite sex, and its most direct manifestation is the carcass, whether it is in the dream of Paris, in a cloud in the sky, or in the sensory world Among them, these male directors are doing their best to show the imagination of the opposite sex in their minds, presenting them in front of the visual medium, and the most direct one is body after body.

Each of us is a married man on the streets of New York, and when we escape our family, we find that the outside world is not as good as it feels, so if we finally go back to home proudly, then undoubtedly we are lucky.
