Dirt is a deposit that builds up over the years and eventually overwrites the image of the original, making him filthy.
The film is based on the novel of the same name by the author of Trainspotting. The author seems to favor this style of dark humor and self-deprecation.
He uses "dirt" to reflect some things - human heart, social atmosphere... Each of us has thick dirt on our body, covering our original appearance, and finally becomes unrecognizable.
The show is often logically clear and sometimes chaotic. This is exactly the portrayal of the hero's spiritual world.
Some people say they don't like Zhan Yimei's way of expressing - "playing 'I'm a sex addict, transvestite, alcoholic villain but I look totally normal" is better than "I'm a sex addict, transvestite, alcoholic villain, you love to watch." I'm nervous to "be smarter" - in fact, I think it's just a personal opinion, the actor is not a normal person at all. There are several hints in the movie footage, psychiatrist, psychotropic drugs, the hero's self-report, many places indicate that he has long-term Suffering from schizophrenia and depression. It's not easy to play a psychopath, it's not that you're crazy, just look crazy. No one knows what's going on in the mind of a psychopath , why are they tortured, why they are so painful that they almost kill themselves, normal people can't understand it at all, they don't know why they are suffering, why are they crazy. The
male protagonist is stretched on a critical point from beginning to end, and one foot has already stepped on it. In terms of personality breakdown, the other one has not yet stepped over. His brain is like a crazy machine whose screws have been loosened
, his mind is quick, he complains again and again, and he plays a group of normal people on the palm of his hand. But He often doesn't know where he is and what he is doing. He is lonely, painful, and helpless. But everyone leaves him.
Except for the last scene of his wife in the play, all the images about his wife are only for the male protagonist. Self-hypnosis. Can't blame his wife, after all, they have kids. She probably already knows she can't save him - that bastard wears a "I'm super normal" mask every day and tortures everyone around him hysterically- - My mind won't let me go, I have to let you go.
Zhan Yimei was indeed the right choice for this drama. Not to mention his acting skills, just his image, no matter how messy and dirty his appearance is, his eyes are always the same transparent blue. It was his soul deep in dirt. You see them screaming silently in the dirt, struggling, asking for help, and finally going crazy in the dirt.
I thought the last scene was done very well.
He widened his eyes and gave a crazy smile.
The final musical masterpiece -
When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel
Your skin makes me cry
You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
And I wish I was special
You' re so fucking special
But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice
When I'm not around
You're so fucking special
I wish I was special
...
"But I'm a creep, I'm a weirdo. What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here"
This is probably what the hero wants to say, a mental patient's Inner portrait - I'm here for Mao?
