Some understanding of characters and plot

At the beginning of the film, Dr. Aziz watched the car drive past the raised dust and said to his companions that these civilized people will change in a year for men and half a year for women. At this time, he was obviously dissatisfied and contemptuous, but Later, his attitude towards Adela and Mrs. Moore was very flattering. This kind of contradiction should be commonly owned by the colonized. Looking up to civilization has always produced a sense of inferiority. On the one hand, it desires equality and on the other hand, it considers itself too low. In the film, Dr.Aziz finally changed his suit and leather shoes and put on Indian clothes, completing a self-identification and returning to the native land. It also seems to imply the power of the native culture. Although the colonial culture has a strong sense of oppression and superficial superiority However, foreign objects have never been able to take root in the local area, and returning is the final way.
Adela and Mrs. Moore came to India full of joy and curiosity, and like the rest of the British in their home country, they had no idea what colonization was. When they really came to this exotic land, everything was so new and mysterious. They were eager to communicate with the locals and visit the local culture. At that time, she saw the real Indian culture, which was different from the romantic and mysterious scenes in her mind. These statues revealed erotic and barbaric atmosphere. In the shrill cry of the local wild animals - monkeys, she panicked. Running away, I believe she was quite frightened. And this kind of fear, the fear of Sex, the foreign land of India, I think is also one of the important reasons for her hallucinations in the cave later. Being alone in a dark, empty cave, the sultry heat of summer, the unfamiliar environment, and the oppressive atmosphere in the cave must have made her deeply uneasy, reminding her of the kind of fear she felt after seeing the statue, and she felt uneasy about Sex. The deep fear of the unfamiliar environment, and at this time Dr. Aziz's voice (exotic accent) came from all directions, oppressing her fragile nerves, causing her to have hallucinations. (I don't think Adela had some kind of affection or desire for Dr.aziz, in short, the hallucinations stemmed from her fear, sex, fear of India, and Dr.aziz happened to be there that day, and he was the only one she A relatively familiar Indian, so some kind of hallucination about him is understandable.)
The most mysterious person is Professor Godbhole. He retains the most primitive things in India, living habits and clothes are very native. In this colonial farce, he represents the part of the native India, and his mystery is also the mystery of India. .
