A lot People translate it into "Eyes-Opening Ring" and "Eyes-Opening" because of the nudity in the play. Actually, it's better to use the English title.
DOUBAN's most popular review revolves around the commodification of women, as well as social bribery. The film is two and a half hours long, and the plot in the second half is quite depressing. If you haven’t seen Kubrick’s previous films, it’s hard to watch. ), I always feel enlightened after reading movie reviews.
The whole film revolves around this word - temptation. In the face of the conflict between the temptation of material desires and the shackles of ethics and morality, how should we choose?
At the beginning of the dance, alice dancing with a man,
"Don't you think one of the charms of marriage... Is that it makes deception a necessity for both parties?" One...is it necessary to make up lies for each other's sake?)
"You know why women used to get married,don't you? It was the only way they could lose their virginity... and be free to do what they wanted with other men." (You know why women are used to getting married? That's the only way they can lose their virginity and then...have fun with other men)
Alice said that she used to run an art gallery in Xiongnan District, and the man said, "I have some friends in the art world, maybe I can help a little bit." The subtext is that Alice can exchange her body for benefits. Repeatedly mentioning Because, Because-"Husband", "married", and the wedding ring on the hand, followed by the scene of Bill and Alive in front of the mirror, Alice's last look, the ideological derailment.
Alice smoking marijuana and Bill's mutual suspicion (I didn't expect foreign couples to have such nonsensical jealousy), Alice's dissatisfaction with patriarchy (Millions of years of evolution, right? Men have to stick it every place they can. .. ...but for women, it is just about security and commitment... ...and whatever the fuck else!)
Alice said to the naval officer "And at that moment, my love for you.. .was both tender and sad." (My love for you was mixed with unease and sadness) That's the guilt after temptation.
Bill brooded over the incident and faced a series of temptations - first a widow of a rich man, a woman who already had a fiancé, who interrupted them during the kiss. Another hooker called Domina interrupted them by Alice's call. Then there is that mysterious Party. (There is a scene of borrowing clothes here. When the clothes are returned later, the owner of the clothing store has a very different attitude towards the two men who fucked with his daughter, suggesting that even his own daughter can be regarded as a man for some material gain. commodity.)
The mysterious Party is the climax of the whole play. It is the same mansion as the party at the beginning. The difference is that everyone wears a mask (hidden true identity), and the bishop in red applies teachings to women (get rid of inner ethics and morality). constraint). At a banquet everyone instinctively indulges their desires. Seeing this reminds me of the fight club in "Fight Club", but it has become a "fuck club"...Mandy repeatedly persuaded Bill to leave (doesn't know how to find out Bill's) After Bill's identity was revealed, the people at the banquet Afraid that what they've done will be exposed and lose face, and want to kill someone, then Mandy (sacrifice himself? Don't understand) saves him. The man in red warns him (if you make any further inquiries... or if you say a single word to anyone... about what you have seen there will be the most dire consequences for you and your family. West or if you leak a word of what you saw, you and your family... will have to suffer serious consequences)
After Bill returns home, Alice's dream is the pleasure of guilt? ? ? Humans are such animals, knowing that the destruction of ethics and morals will cause serious consequences, there is still an impulse to break through them subconsciously, for a moment of pleasure.
Bill was very concerned about Alice's dream again. Bill went to Domina and met Domina's roommate. He wanted to trade with her roommate, but her roommate told Bill that Domina had AIDS. Bill felt bad.
Classmate Bill, the pianist's disappearance, and Mandy's death (the front page of the newspaper happened to say "Lucky To Be Alive", it's not a coincidence, it was a deliberate arrangement by the director), the stalking of the mysterious man, or Bill After the warning from his employer, Victor, Bill felt a serious threat. He went home and saw the mask beside Alice's pillow. Bill collapsed and told Alice all his experiences.
The conversation between Bill and Alice at the end is a classic.
What do you think we should do?
What do I think we should do?
What do I think?
I don't know.
I mean, maybe...
Maybe I think.....we should be grateful.
Grateful.. ...that we've managed to survive through all of our...adventures...whether they were real...or only a dream.
Are you sure of that?
Am I sure?
Only as sure as I am...that the reality of one night...let alone that of a whole lifetime...can ever be the whole truth.
And no dream is ever.....just a dream.
The important thing is...we're awake now...and hopefully...for a long time to come.
Forever.
Forever?
Forever.
Let's not use that word. You know?
It frightens me.
But I do love you...and you know...there is something very important...that we need to do as soon as possible.
What's that?
Fuck.
Forever is too heavy a word to enjoy now.
Eyes closed, in front of temptation, in front of loyalty.
