Say this is cool drama, I believe in your evil!
Let's talk about the digression of the drama first. The opportunity to watch this drama is that it was the most weird election night in modern American history.
I won’t go into details about the script, service, performance, and director’s excellence, and I don’t understand chess skills either. A lot of self-media nicknamed "Shuangju". To be honest, I was not upset at all. Genius is indeed a very cool setting. However, Beth is not like the benchmark of Shuang drama at all: One Punch Superman Bald Teacher, behind her every victory is huge anxiety and confusion. The powerful ability did not bring her absolute sense of security. It seems that "After" is a story about the growth of competitive sports geniuses, but in fact, the most exciting game part is stripped off, this story is completely uncomfortable! Even abuse the heart! (It's even more torture to stay up late to watch!)
The genre marked on the wiki of the original novel of " Hou " is " bildungsroman ", a German word consisting of two parts: bildung-education and roman-fiction. This style focuses on the spiritual growth of the protagonist over a period of years. When it comes to growing up, family is essential. However, from the first scene of the show, the ignorant little girl peeked out the window at the quarrel between her mother and an unknown man in the middle of the night, we can know that in the tone of the story, "family" is missing, especially the identity of an orphan, which has always accompanied Beth. . The more I watched the later episodes, the more I thought about it, what exactly did the production team want to talk about, and what was the "burden" they buried? Could it be that I am the only one to be so happy? !
One of the reasons that makes me most uncomfortable is that Beth is obviously a socially alternative person with a colder personality. Based on her experience, this is understandable. However, she is also an "addict". Medicine, alcohol, and chess are all her addictions. Contrary to her coldness towards people, she chooses to indulge her addiction unreservedly. Self-discipline makes people progress. This is for those of us who are not geniuses. I hate indulgent people because they don't care about the consequences and are not responsible to those around them because they have the capital to splurge. Now that the problem is there, what is the magic to solve the problem? My answer is, "family". As mentioned above, the family is missing at the beginning. Therefore, in 7 episodes, we saw how Beth gradually gained and lost his "family" during the ten years from childhood to adulthood. Just like every one of us, after slowly understanding the meaning of family, we will eventually lose our family, and we will also gain family, in which we grow.
"Father"
It can be said that Beth has 3 dads. The first biological father was absent from start to finish, and Beth had only seen vaguely through the glass twice. Coupled with the fact that her mother always "educates" her nervously, "Women must rely on themselves", Beth is new to the concept of father.
The second father, in chronological order, is the cleaner Shaibel. This is a dad who has a cold face but silently pays attention to your father (Is it reminded of my own father?!). He led Beth to recognize the sport he loved all his life, gave her gifts, and paid money directly when she needed help. . . . . . It wasn't until his father's death that Beth found out that he was being watched all the time. The pain of losing her father made her sober, and the expectation and trust of her relatives made her find courage.
The third father, although he exists, has perfectly set up a negative teaching material, Mr. Vitry. This man made me gritted my teeth disgustingly. I really hope that Beth can be more merciless in the end! There are many wonderful features in the setting of the confrontation between the two. For example, the father did not dare to look at the "daughter" wearing the clothes of the deceased wife. For example, two so-called successful men were sitting on a shorter sofa. On the bench, the "weak woman" who was a few decades younger than herself asked aggressively.
So far, in the most important years of the girl's growth, she did not have a qualified father to accompany her. In that era, women still depended on men to provide material security in their lives. Whether it is physical personal safety or material living conditions, Beth has no such source. Coupled with her mother-in-law babble, Beth has become a girl with a strong sense of self-protection or even excessive self-protection. She always speaks few words and has few expressions. She does not express her true thoughts easily. When facing others, she likes to put her breasts in her arms and her walking posture that is slightly stiff. I wonder if she did it intentionally?
"Mother"
I just want to talk about the second mother, Mrs. Vitry, who is also the most inked supporting role in the film. A typical middle-class housewife, with a good background, is a romantic literary youth in his bones (playing the piano, drinking, and beloved online dating). She was originally educated to find a good man to serve in the three observances of the four virtues, and regenerate a litter of middle-class children (see the great Mrs. Maisel for details). However, her husband still didn't love her, and the child died. Even so, she never yelled once in the whole show. On the day when her husband told her that she would never come back, she cried and put on makeup, still playing Gymnopédie No. 1 beautifully. She is innocent and cute, and exasperating. Trying hard to learn to be a mother, the daughter stole the medicine in a muddled manner, allowing her daughter to stay away all night, and taking her to drink. Beth's alcoholism is somewhat "hereditary" (toasting to an empty seat). Beth slowly learns to accept "mother", learn to open up and rely on her, and will hold mother's hand silently after her first love fails, from yes madam to mother. But, Mrs. Vitry, is she a qualified mother? In front of a daughter who is stronger, calmer and smarter than herself, what exactly did this mother teach Beth?
There is a bridge, I hope someone can discuss it together. Beth went to the restaurant and ordered a glass of his mother's favorite wine. My first guess at the time was that the Gibson in this store used this cup to serve it. Isn't it delicious?
Both of Beth's mothers kept telling her that women would eventually be abandoned by men. (So self-improvement?! What's weird to express the awakening of women's independent consciousness in this way?)
"spouse"
First love, first night, a person who yearns for himself, a person who is conquered by himself, Beth meets four men.
During adolescence, he caught a glorious scene in the library. So far, Beth has a desire for sex. It's a pity that the ideal target for ambiguous play has a boyfriend, although in the end, I use "Blame it to blame you for being too attractive". So Beth couldn't bear it, and gave the first time to a college student who was more mature than himself in night school. She seemed calm throughout the whole process, of course, the whole process of the drug's influence is estimated to be only three seconds. It wasn't until she finally got into Tsundere Banny's bed that Beth said "supposed to be this way".
Many people who are obsessed with competition belong to Mu Qiang, right? Beth is a little red in the male-dominated chess world (the fledgling is wearing a red coat and shuttles among the gray crowd). There are countless men who have been defeated by her. After experiencing failure and frustration, they can't help but look forward to this beautiful and talented woman.
The most distressing of these four men is Harry Potter's cousin. Because of Beth, she trimmed her teeth, and waited for her to return to her hometown after many years. Careful dedication, not daring to cross the boundary, ecstatic after getting the goddess's permission, and saddened after getting the goddess's blessing. He did not choose to expose or accuse him when he discovered Beth's drug dependence. After knowing that the other party’s feelings were not on him, he continued to entangle, and left the scene with speed and politeness. situation. He knew the upper limit of his abilities, changed cars, and became an ordinary hitman in ordinary society. To be honest, it's not bad for Beth to marry someone like this many years later.
Let's talk about Banny sauce, the guard with a knife. Why is he still the face of an elf boy in his 30s! ? I have always felt that he has a good face and good acting skills, why not give me a big hit! Well, Banny, he and Beth have too much in common! The last name is B. . . . . . Insecure, arrogant, and clever (when the brain is playing chess, I don't know if one looks at the sky and the ground), the object chess has a love that transcends everything. Because of this similarity, two people are destined to be unable to love each other completely. The design of this character became more interesting as he thought about it. As soon as he appeared on the stage, he was a good-looking ruffian. I thought it would be an hour-old story, but I didn't expect it to be a real talented number two. And he has extraordinary bearing, the hormones walking on the chessboard (after all, the suicide model suddenly fell in love with him). I thought Beth was going to love the stallion bitterly, they said, don't want to eat my body! (Then what are you doing naked all day! Do you sweat it!) No smoking, no drinking, no promiscuity, knowledgeable, and excellent chess skills, so Beth finally fell. And Beth used his strength to conquer him on the chessboard, as well as the other two who buy one get two free. Banny asked timidly, do you still like my hair? Tsundere, is it Tsundere? !
Speaking of, on the night the model trio arrived, the director must have deliberately disgusted the audience's appetite! First in the middle of the night, Banny hinted that we would have some excitement, and then three gorgeous men and women (actually just the Cleo exhibition) came, and then Cleo said that I did not fall in love with any of them, but, both of them. . . . . . . . Saved my life! But I fell in love with Banny. Beth, who was undergoing the baptism of romantic France, suddenly felt the scorching eyes of the three men towards her, as well as the expressions that they were obviously intending to themselves. Seeing this moment, I was shocked that the two children who had grown up by myself were about to go into the sea like this.
Then they played chess. . . Director, why bother, everyone is grown up!
By the way, cleo's actor is British, but it's so French!
"family"
The first positive mention of "family" was in the last few episodes, from the orphanage's best friend Xu Lin, "We are not orphans, we are family". At this point, Beth finally accepted the fact that he had lost his family and realized that he also gained the hope that his family would not be alone. Finally, he was willing to choose the people around him instead of the green pill. Finally, he did not drink alcohol and was eager for the help of friends. . That cold, paranoid, indulgent, and arrogant Beth, finally, cute, can be loved, and can be loved.
There are many elements that can be sorted out in this drama, such as the three-time game against Borgov, such as changes in clothing and makeup, such as the confrontation between men and women, the confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union, such as Anya's acting skills and so on. There is a very personal feeling here. For works that have little personal emotional connection, they can think more rationally. For those works that cry and laugh while watching, they can't write a word. Here, I wish Anya become the next Ronan, don't always play horror and thriller, there are more and more good roles to try. And, the shoes from the 60s are too good-looking! I am going online shopping.
