He Was a Quiet Man--Another Angle Fears do Seduce

I always feel that SEDUCE is a dirty word. When you see it, you will think of a woman's snake-like figure and slightly closed eyes, making you do some good or bad things without thinking. And fear is a super resistance word, and seeing it makes you stop doing something good or bad. For example, if you are afraid of fire or a certain person, then you will never provoke fire or this person. Put the two words together and you would think I don't understand English or have a cognitive impairment.

The alopecia male protagonist in the movie has basic goodwill, is introverted and doesn't like to communicate, and has no special talent. He feels a little cowardly and ordinary. The whole main body of the movie is his fantasy before committing suicide. His fantasies are good (love, promotion), justice (heroes save beauty and bosses contradict), self-awareness (he said that the biggest problem in the company is the lack of communication between departments, so add small drinking fountains...) and so on. A colorful and realistic life, but without resistance or relief. He didn't do anything after all. He lived in his own smaller and smaller world, and the outside world was an invisible fear, like sulfuric acid flowing out of a broken test tube, seeping into the table, and you happened to be there. The next step of the experiment is the same as the concentrated reading.

In the end, you will protect yourself, either by killing everything that threatens you or by killing yourself. Of course, the protagonist executes the latter under the guidance of the former. At its root, I think it's people's own fears, whether real or imagined. People always think that fear is the moment when we see Sadako crawling out of the TV and pulling out his hair. In fact, it is more that we become vulnerable and depressed because we gradually give up and avoid them.

Therefore, the "fear" that we should be careful about is the kind of mentality that cannibalizes our true self bit by bit, lets us gradually follow into its world, and can't stop. When we are so simple that only fear is left, we can destroy ourselves (whether bloodshed or not) without external force (earthquake, car accident, etc.), without conspiracy (scandal politics or something), without organization (group fight or something). One of the principles of atomic bombs is nuclear fusion. Therefore, when we are in "fear," we can either use the pan that we used to fry eggs at home and firmly beat her back into the TV, or we can say to her with a sincere attitude and a smile: "Dig the plug, the lady is so white, use what brand of cosmetics do you have?" What are you afraid of? It's just a temptation.

    The opening paragraph is very convincing~~The middle-aged uncle with a very bad face~~ Actually, I don't want to think of the last as a fantasy before death~ Although this is the director's intention~~ I would like to think that it was the uncle who found himself even though he accidentally became a In fact, the hero is still looked down upon by his colleagues and still cannot get the love of the person he loves~~ It seems that there is no problem with myself, but the problem still exists~~ I feel desperate and wish I could just die as planned~~
