I don't know how fast I watch the Ten Commandments, but I feel a little bit distressed every time I finish watching one. Although it looks like there are a lot of movies now, how many can you really watch, and Laoji’s movies are even one less one. Every time I watch a Ten Commandments, I enjoy the coolness of thinking, but at the same time I feel a deep pain in my heart. Hey, this dark cool opportunity is missing again, but each of his movies should be watched repeatedly, just watch again, I am afraid it will feel different again.
Without further ado, there are very few characters in the Ten Commandments series, as is this one. In fact, there are only two protagonists. If you add an absent mother, there are only three people. At the beginning of the story, a scene of an Easter daughter pouring water on the father’s body was used to show the harmony between the father and daughter. Note that although this scene is just a simple presentation, it already has a three-fold meaning, except for the one mentioned above. Point, and her daughter’s childlike innocence, which is in sharp contrast to what she said later that she had sex with many men and had abortions, and the most important letter also appeared for the first time. The father was going to the airport and told the daughter who was seeing him off that there were still some expenses left. The receipt was in the drawer. The daughter went home and opened the drawer. He did not see the receipt but saw the mysterious letter. The daughter cut the shell, and there was an envelope inside, which read: When I die, to my daughter Anka-obviously, the letter was written to her by the dead mother. The daughter hesitated for a long time with the scissors...The father came back, and the daughter who greeted her looked unhappy. She memorized the letter. It turned out that she was not her biological daughter. The furious father beat his daughter and left alone. The daughter ran to her boyfriend's house and expressed to her boyfriend's mother that she was willing to marry her boyfriend. After returning home, the daughter and father finally talked frankly. The father admitted that he was jealous of his daughter being a lover with other men, while the daughter admitted that she always felt betrayed her father when she was intimate with other men. The two scenes here are very subtle. One is the daughter lying on the bed and crying, her jacket is lifted, revealing her entire back. The father's hand hesitates in front of the camera and covers her daughter's clothes; the other is the daughter takes off her jacket in front of her father and says : In front of you is no longer a child but an adult woman, don't you want to caress? Father just took a blanket and wrapped her around. The next morning, the daughter who woke up found that her father was not by her side. She was anxious. She rushed downstairs and told her father that everything was her own fabrication and the letter was written by imitating her handwriting. The true letter had not been moved at all. Afterwards, she took out the true letter and let her father burn it.
When the father and daughter talked frankly, Lolita's taste is already very strong. There are many reasons for the formation of this atmosphere. First of all, the father is very kind to his daughter, as he said to his daughter, no matter what happens, he will smile. It’s okay to comfort your daughter, just do it according to your own ideas. This has to make the daughter attached to him for a long time. Second, the father has always remained single. This family has been absent from the mother for a long time, which makes the daughter a certain sense. When it comes to the support of another gender in a family, that is, the role of the father’s partner, the third is the existence of the mysterious letter, because if a father and daughter fall in love, after all, it is incest, and the existence of the letter is for this. The inconsistency provided the possibility of legalization. After all, the father is sensible, and the daughter is also impulsive and fantasizing, so everything after that is normal.
I used to be gossiping about an unusually vulgar plot where both the father and the daughter did not resist the call of fate. After that, the lover finally matched. When the daughter was pregnant, she died of dystocia and died. Before she died, she told her father that the letter was a forgery. Yes, the true letter has been destroyed by her, and the content is not known, and the father is holding the child in a daze. Suddenly, I remembered that the director was Lao Ji, not Park Chan-wook.
When I watched the film, I finally verified a little bit. The habit of interacting in the old Gipai series of movies. When I watched the third, I seemed to have seen the face of a middle father. In the fourth middle school, who is coming up in the elevator? Two old doctors inside. I was wondering if anyone in Wudai got in the taxi of that person in Sanni? By the way, there is a famous murder video in the back. The one who killed was a taxi driver, Khan, wouldn't he be the good man who promised his wife would never return all night, right? Khan... look back.
I have finished writing, and looking back, I suddenly felt very cold. It was originally a human mystery, but I almost used it as a model for sociological problems. I began to reflect on why I was so indifferent. Didn't the video impress me? When my father put the blanket on my daughter, I was almost crying. Maybe I have taken this kind of indecent habitually, and I don’t think it is so shocking. On the contrary, the final return to the usual ending, although the contradiction lurks underwater again, restored the normal frequency of my ordinary human heart. Later, it also disappointed more subconsciously. The destruction of that letter made the result always a mystery, escape, escape, these two people who escaped feelings and responsibilities. When you can blame them, think about it in another way, what will happen to yourself? Escape in the same way, and yearn for the extraordinary in the ordinary.
Like Lao Ji’s past scenery, there is still an accidental third person in the film. The first episode is a fire-fighting man, and the third episode becomes a drunk man. In this episode, he is a yacht rower. When he was about to open the letter, he passed his daughter with the yacht on his back. The stranger's gaze in her daughter's eyes was startled and slightly blamed, and she was too scared to continue. The second time it appeared was when the daughter told his father that the letter was forged, and the person passed by again, and the daughter was surprised again. Maybe the person's surprised expression was just the subconsciousness of seeing a strange woman, but the daughter could not calmly face it. Wait, take a closer look at the person carrying the boat. It is actually the fire-bearer inside. Lao Ji has drawn out this character. I think I still have to remind that God is everywhere and God is omnipotent.
Unfortunately, I forgot to save the pictures I captured this time. I am very frustrated, I don't know if it is because of the missing pictures or because of the movie itself.
