First, clarify that the movie name is translated incorrectly
I Sell The Dead
My English is not very good, but I also know it should be "I sell dead people" or a similar name
Dead’s noun part of speech "n." means dead person, dead body; and "adj.", which is an adjective, should be translated into "lost life" or "hitting"
In the same way, the famous game DOA is also incorrectly translated.
Because in the noun part of speech, dead is a dead body, while Alive has no noun part of speech at all. Alive is just an adjective.
In other words, the correct translation of "Dead or Alive" should be "dead or lively XXX [XXX was added by me, because the grammar is not valid, XXX represents a certain noun; adjectives cannot be used as objects. The grammar of the game name is just There is a problem, to be precise, this is not human words]"
I clarify this point to pave the way for film reviews. Don’t be swayed by the name.
I still don’t understand why people always change their names, including movies, games, music, novels, etc.
"Dragon Cavalry General" in Dragon Spear Chronicles How does this translate? Look at English for yourself, that's Dragon Knight
Dragon’s Creed, Dark XXX, is perhaps even more weird. Just look at the Japanese "Dragon’s Contract-Dark Awakener". Can this be translated incorrectly?
No, really, study hard, whether culture is useful, let alone talk about it, it’s terrible. I came from the back of the school crane. Thinking about my own future and future, I couldn't help but feel a little scared; but these experts are even scarier than horror movies! !
Okay back to the topic,
This movie is not a movie of mainstream values, because the world values it has shaped are not correct.
In other words, there is no problem with social values, because it is too macro, so the cruelty of that society is actually shown through a special perspective. This design is very clever, just like the movie "Focus" I was talking about in 2011. Isn't that a unique perspective (a reporter or a paparazzi perspective) to see the erosion of the church?
And this film also won a gold award, but the domestic evaluation is really not high; but after all, it was also No.1 that year.
This movie "I Sell the Dead" also uses this unique perspective; it uses two socially deflated perspectives to see the world hundreds of years ago; of course, the perspective of this movie is not like Focus wants to expose, but is more effective Complete the environment contrast, and it is very successful;
In other words, the production team wanted to express the cruelty of the society, and they succeeded; instead of deliberately applying heavy make-up, the arrangement of roles was half of the success, because for the poor or other people at the bottom of society. In other words, society is cruel.
Here to explain, if you translate into "Tomb Raider" then you must be misled, the protagonist is not a professional tomb robber at all! ! Not at all. He is just an orphan with no fixed job, no five insurances and one housing fund. He went to the tomb because he stole a corpse, sold it, and ate a full meal.
As a tomb robber, he does not love tomb robbers. He has no professional honor and disgrace to this position. In other words, he robbers the tomb because he can eat and eat. He seems to do everything except tomb robbers.
But this movie focuses on tomb robbery, that is because the protagonist is sentenced "in name" because of tomb robbery. But in fact it is not at all. The film will tell you the root cause of his sentence. [Even if I don't spoil it now, I guess it will be in the future]
For the masters of plot production, he explained that the plot is by no means a single layer, this movie is also, many plots are multi-layered.
It's like the protagonist shaping is multi-dimensional. The film has successfully shaped a poor society at the bottom of the society. On the surface, they can do everything. If you have milk, you are a mother, but that is only his life rule, and who is he?
In fact, he is an ordinary person,
What does he want? You can eat three meals a day, marry a wife and live your life, it’s nothing more than that,
But just for such a low-end demand, the society can't give him. He robbed the grave for the above-mentioned "satisfaction" and he took the risk to move the cheese of the gang, nothing but because of "marrying a wife."
For example, we can introduce it to others in a high-sounding manner. Boss Zhang’s wife is the secretary of XX secretary, his other wife is the financial director of XX Bank, and the other is a graduate student of XX University.....and so on. Without pressure.
But the protagonist in our movie, his girlfriend was originally a pirate, [the severity of the robbery of merchant ships in that era was more serious than taking a chopper to the public security organ XXX] It can be said that his girlfriend:
1 No money [Squander with money]
2 Make trouble [There are countless enemies, it can be said that anyone in any tavern wants to kill her]
3 smoking
4 drinking
5 hot head
....etc
But our protagonist will not discuss whether he really loves him or not, but he wants to marry her, and he wants to live his life. He wants to make a living through the tomb robbery and fight for a dim future for the family, but it is always brighter than the idleness now. Little bit.
Think about it, do you dare to marry such a woman? I bet you will walk around her!
But in that society, the protagonist has no choice, to be honest, marrying this March 8 will take his life sooner or later! [And the plot is the same, isn’t this sentenced? death penalty! 】
Think about it, we have received nine years of compulsory education, high school and university jail, and heroes may have squatted for graduate students [such as Boss Zhang's girlfriend No. 3], and even bigger heroes have squad for post-doctorate. [Sorry, reading, not squatting] We know at a glance that the protagonist will be rushing to the street sooner or later, but as the completely uneducated protagonist, he himself does not know how dangerous he is. This also confirms what I said first, uneducated very horrible.
Well, the fact is the same. I stepped on the feet of a gang to help my girlfriend get rich, and was finally sentenced to death;
Then the film uses flashbacks to explain the plot in the form of confession before execution, and it is not the priest who listens to his confession, but the copycat. That guy is a big brother from the underworld. Didn't you see that he squatted when he read those words?
The above are the biggest highlights of the film in my opinion. The role positioning, viewpoint, plot structure arrangement and design, narrative method, elaboration, and storytelling are all excellent.
But also because of the design of this viewpoint, high-profile groups such as tall handsome and rich, fake tall handsome and rich, white rich beauty, fake white rich beauty, pretending to be forced to see this will have serious discomfort.
Moreover, people who reject the lower social groups, lack IQ, have substandard literacy, and have their brains flooded, please make a detour. The consequences of watching this kind of film are very serious, whether it is the collapse of the heart caused by angry rejection, or the brainwashing of insufficient IQ is terrible.
Then it’s worth mentioning that I like the style of the film’s beautiful comics, the decadent beauty of the environment, and the music is also good.
The role of the heroine is very fucking, but the actors are beautiful and perform well.
The film actually expresses positive energy in the end,
In other words, the film does not directly express positive energy, but the questions left, the questions that fools will answer, and the answers are all positive energy.
And they are all cultural and social,
If you give him half a hamburger, he won't go to the tomb. Why don't you give it? Because that society is short of money or sympathy? Maybe, that society lacks a way for good people to walk, right?
If you want to stop a certain evil in society, it is best to start with demand. Why not stop demand? For example, when someone smokes, someone sells cigarettes, and someone who engages in prostitution leads to prostitution. Whether it is the widow of the cigarette stand who was killed by the city management, or the prostitute who was discriminated against and abused, they are all victims and will not work. It's like, what's the point of you hanging a tomb thief? right? What's the meaning? Just revenge! It was a counterattack by bad guys that was worse than tomb thief. The gangster said "I use the law to kill you!" Or "I use the law to rape you" OR "I use the law to discriminate and abuse you"...this It's scary enough, too scary!
No matter what the reason, that society didn't give those people a way to survive, and then there would be such a laughing movie where my bowels would be broken.
Wonderful social values are the breeding grounds for weird flowers.
Therefore, the brains of those who have been attacked by my bad words before are flooded, IQ and culture are not up to standard or something, don’t take it to your heart, it may not be your fault, more is...I don’t Dare to say, I am afraid that I will be labeled as a tomb thief, and I will arrange a death penalty for casually, and then find a fake pastor to listen to my confession, I rely on it. Am I scared by the movie? My girlfriend is not a pirate! !
Look at the society in the movie, the gangs can kidnap even the judiciary...I can't say more.
In short, this movie made me cry and laugh. It has a rich experience and a unique perspective.
As a point of view of a movie, the movie is worth recommending,
As an audience's point of view, I like it. The movie says things I dare not say, and asks questions I dare not ask.
