Ang Lee's "Lust and Caution" was completed silently, and it soared to the Venice Golden Lion, creating a legend in film history. The profound portrayal of human nature in the film, the accurate grasp of Shanghai style, the delicate performance, the rigorous screenwriting, and the proficient directing skills, all of which seem to add up in China are not as exciting as the ten minutes that have been deleted. Still far from it.
Any places on the Internet that indicate the unabridged version of Lust Caution are bound to have a high click-through rate; pirated hawkers on the street hold CDs and use the unabridged version as a commercial advertisement; In fact, I want to use the deleted part to hype myself; even more media wrote that the number of mainland tourists visiting Hong Kong this winter has increased by 40%, and there is only one purpose - the ten minutes that were deleted when going to the cinema to watch Lust Caution... …So, those who watched it went on to discuss more in-depth details and even technical issues, while those who had not watched it were even more tormented, either going to street vendors or risking poisoning on the Internet I searched everywhere, and even worse, I might have booked a flight to Hong Kong.
Perhaps for today's China, the artistic value of the film Lust Caution is far less than the social problems reflected in the abridged ten minutes. The abridged ten minutes of a movie has become a social topic, and even a trend, and its connotation is only one word: sex; behind it, there is actually only the essence of two words: repression.
There is no need to spend any more time explaining how Chinese people suppress themselves, let alone analyze why there is such repression, because this is actually just rhetoric and self-evident truth. The depression is slowly being released, and there are more and more channels for venting. Smart water conservancy workers are pondering the countermeasures for dredging and solving. I hope they can put the obvious and simple methods into practice as soon as possible. .
Since someone is trying to figure out a solution, we might as well go back to the details and technical discussions, put the problem back where it should be, and have fun, why not?
Lust and Caution is a good movie, this is a nonsense that has to be repeated. Fortunately, this film really shows a perfect fusion of grand feelings and subtle emotions; fortunately, this film can take a more in-depth and moving step at the level of the original soul; fortunately, this film is performing, The techniques of music, editing, screenwriting, and directing are all natural; fortunately, under the gorgeous and soft appearance, this film serves the soul of the story with a rigid perseverance and a fierce expression, while reflecting With today's Chinese society, the psychology of the Chinese people is real.
So let's go back to the joyous discussion, let the dust return to the dust, the earth to the earth, let the back-pin posture and the discussion of whether it be true or not continue, let Lust and Caution exist as a complete movie, let Everything goes on, because everything will change...
It's the same question at the beginning: Have you watched the full version of Lust, Caution? :)
