Fighting with the evil dragon for too long, he also becomes the evil dragon. Staring at the abyss for too long, the abyss will stare back. —— Nietzsche’s classic quotations once again confirm the terrible aspects of human nature. The world we live in is a huge hypnosis show. People who want to live have only two ways to go-hypnotizing others and pretending to be hypnotized. The vast majority of the remaining people can only be reduced to cannon fodder, not even victims. Generations of people lost their way, trying to find who they used to be, but they were constantly chased by the wheels of the times and had to choose to abandon themselves, merge into the huge dyeing vat of society, live in a muddle-headed manner, and finally enjoy it without knowing it. , As if being hypnotized.
Kurosawa Kiyoshi is the director and screenwriter of the film and has absolute control over the film. In other words, he is the hypnotist behind the scenes. In order to keep the viewers deep in it, Kiyoshi Kurosawa used a variety of film shooting techniques to create an extremely weird atmosphere, and we were unable to extricate ourselves before we knew it. These techniques are mentioned in detail in many film reviews of the neighbors, so I won't repeat them here.
The viewers are shrouded in this extremely depressive atmosphere, it is difficult to hold on to themselves, they will inexplicably have a sense of uneasiness, and will become more and more intense as the plot advances, and then they will continue to examine themselves, and even to the living The meaning and the value of life all have doubts, and finally the soul is drawn away, and is unable to extricate itself into hypnosis. And this is exactly what the director wants to achieve. He wants each of us to see the true selves in our hearts, so that our souls can be redeemed.
After washing out the lead and blooming, you will see the gold, and the glitz will fade and return to the true. I think this is the original intention of being alive. But entering this level is indeed too idealistic, and it is almost impossible to exist in real life.
Therefore, in the film, Mamiya uses hypnosis to give those people psychological hints, inspire their anti-social personality, and use this extreme method to heal the wounds in their hearts. On the other hand, the senior criminal police and the psychologist Sakuma kept trying to get close to Mamiya, and tried to communicate with him many times. However, Mamiya's rebellion was repeated and he returned without success. In the end, Sakuma didn't know what to do. Juezhong realizes that he has been hypnotized and forced to commit suicide. At this time, the senior was tortured by his wife to nearly collapse. Under multiple pressures, he chose to use force to solve everything. Unexpectedly, after shooting Mamiya, he seemed to be hypnotized and replaced him. Become the next hypnotist.
This seems absurd and true. Just like the plot of "Blue Beard" mentioned at the beginning of the film, Blue Beard’s wife finally releases a second personality, from a victim to a perpetrator, to a murderer who seduces men and kills them. , Doesn't this image fit the high department? He slaughtered the dragon and finally became it. At the same time, it also confirms the unchanging truth that Hegel said-"The only lesson we learn from history is that we never learn from history."
