"Breaking the Waves" Personal Review (9/10)

Even if the surreal at the end is too urgent to show the basic position of devotion to religious belief, thereby dissolving the ambiguity of the text, the amount of information and the thickness of the plot is far beyond expectations. It would be too difficult to record all the movie-watching experiences worth talking about, except for a second brush. In order to expand the viewing breadth of the movie more efficiently, let’s fool it, and say two points:

autonomy. The girlfriend criticized the heroine's lack of autonomy, but it was precisely these words that led to the heroine's autonomy in self-selection in the "belief" chapter. Looking back, the concept of "autonomy" that the girlfriend intended to instill was only based on her own or the public's own. On top of cognition, and ignoring this point just leads the heroine to rely on her own unique cognition to "distort" mainstream values, just like the quarrel between mother and daughter in "Mysterious Superstar", and it can even be extended to feminists and so-called men. The eternal moral contradiction between power slaves, if the seemingly innate cowardly character is constructed by the context of patriarchal society, is her subjectivity still worthy of respect?

I prefer to understand the religious upper body of the heroine many times as an attribution mechanism, and the fuse of its failure is caused by the psychiatrist's use of personal emotions to forcefully instill opinions, which directly leads to the heroine in the "sacrifice" chapter. The ship of destruction. In the end, religion came back up again, not so much as the return of the attribution mechanism, but as a smashing and rebuilding. After the mechanism failed, the heroine kept breaking with the values ​​of the outside world, because the outside world constantly confirmed the views of the psychiatrist. This was the reason why the heroine fainted again under the bullying of the child. When she woke up and heard the news that her husband's condition was worsening, she decided to bring The scars that have repeatedly collided with the secular view are forcibly reborn, and go to the ship of destruction again. This kind of rebirth is the reconstruction of the attribution mechanism. However, it is not based on facing the world and constantly questioning and exploring in the eternal conflict, but on simple and rude escape, so destruction becomes inevitable. It can be seen that the negative impact of the misattribution mechanism penetrates deeply and stubbornly, and this is the truth of the so-called rebirth. I hope this isn't this year's personal best.

    20190720 2nd brush @FG | 2018815 1st brush @ HKBC Nima really wants to show off my big Lars ah I really miss him? This one is too good for Nima, Emily Watson is so awesome. Also driven by lust, she plays the poor man who is forced to be martyred, and I still prefer the madness of the modern witch of the Antichrist Rigainsbow. By the way: Which is the stronger evolutionary metamorphosis? Four dads, four dads, four dads! ! @Cinematheque
