I watched this film in fast-forward in high school, and I'm here to mourn the fast-forwarding. At that time, I thought it was a teacher-student love movie. I watched it carefully today, and the teacher-student love was just one of the episodes.
This film and "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" are unforgettable erotic movies that I watched every night in high school. I now admire my own vision. My peers are looking at the third grade of Hong Kong products and discussing Li Lizhen, and I have entered the realm of art.
But it's not just that, it's more about finding your own shadow in these two films. The awakening of juvenile sexual consciousness, youthful sexual impulses, irrepressible sexual desires, longings, fantasies, beautiful and mature women, the psychological description of delicate feelings... These are more profound and long-lasting than Hong Kong-made three-level. However, how many teenagers at that time wanted to watch an erotic movie and also think about human nature? Most of the pictures are just for a while.
I remember reading such an article, saying that a young woman is a perfect match for a young man. One was born in the age of tigers and wolves, and was inexhaustible; the other was in a state of conscious awakening and was full of energy. The combination of the two is a match made in heaven. Of course it doesn't make sense.
The fledgling teenagers are eager to mature, and beautiful, intellectually mature women are undoubtedly the most lethal. And the teacher fits that perfectly. At that time, there was a teacher with a sturdy chest, and the boys talked a lot after dinner and turned off the lights at night. But China's own tradition is here, talking about sexual discoloration. You won't even find a real-life picture of an alien body in biology class, only a glimpse of nudity in an art textbook. But that kind of thing is too unreal, it doesn't have the impact of a real human body, and it is not even as good as the looming shoulder straps under the thin shirt in summer, and the brief moment of flashing under the bending over. Therefore, Chinese students all envy the teachers in the movies. Under the news of the teacher seducing the students, there are also a group of comments "let go, let me come", "why I haven't met such a teacher"...
In China, being a teacher is a sacred profession. Students can only respect the teacher, and must not have any unreasonable thoughts, even if there is, hide and hold back. Here, I admire Westerners' exploration of human desire and human nature.
In this film, you can't tell whether the students seduce the teacher or the teacher seduces the students. What you see is the explosion of human desire. The kiss on the stairs, the teacher did not want to refuse but also welcomed it, thinking that this is immoral. The student also did not treat her as a teacher and was inviolable. When desire comes, any ethics and morality must be left behind. This is the most terrifying thing for human beings. If you are a hooligan, he will talk to you about morality, and if you talk about morality, he will use force. After you use force, everyone uses force. After all, it is only the barrel of the gun that power comes out.
After the boy tasted the ripe fruit, he and the teacher were glued together. The class was also showing affection. This scene was very well shot, and the teacher smiled, all with the coyness of a young girl. Touching the lips is even more charming. The teenager also imitated the teacher's usual actions, and the two flirted with each other. The lonely heart is radiant, and the boy's spring is proud.
As I said at the beginning, the teacher-student love is just one of the episodes. The movie is more about the growth of a boy, the experience of a boy becoming a man. His sex is opened by the teacher, his love is given to girls of the same age, and his psychological growth is given to his brother and the husband of the female teacher.
There are more scenes between the teenager and the female teacher's husband than the female teacher and her husband. It can also be seen that the marriage between the female teacher and her husband has long existed in name only. Her derailment just confirmed Freud's id, and everyone pursues the principle of happiness. As a wife, you cannot see her comfort when your husband is frustrated at work. Even after her husband was drunk, she still thought of making peace with her lover. At this point, does the female teacher have more elements of love or more elements of sex? unknown.
After getting to know the female teacher's husband and his brother's death, the teenager's psychology seems to have grown and sublimated. Due to the problem of subtitle translation, I don't understand the scenes of the female teacher's husband and the teenager very well. The death of his brother gave the boy a great feeling. To truly mature, one must end a sexual relationship with a female teacher and have a relationship with a peer.
As a result, the female teacher became the biggest "villain". She made the teenager repeat her class, expelled her from her class, and used despicable methods. The beautiful and mature character set in front collapsed instantly. At this point, I think the female teacher fell in love with the boy. Sex partners can change, but when it comes to true love, you can only love one. The female teacher made him feel betrayal because of the student's betrayal, so she still teased him in class. But at this time, the teenager is no longer the brain of sperm, and his self-consciousness is awakened. When he first learned the news of his brother's death, he chose to bear it himself because he didn't want his mother to worry in vain. After getting the exact news, he chose silence again because he didn't want his family to be sad.
Growth has a price. At the end of the film, the boy takes the dictionary from the classroom, implying separation from the school. The female teacher in the church looked like she wanted to cry, she really loved this boy. It's just that love is too paranoid for her.
This film does not talk about human nature from a moral point of view, which is a clever point of Western films. It doesn't teach you what to do, what's right and what's wrong, just showing a part of human nature.
Just after reading it, I can't help but feel a little disappointed. The blackening of the beautiful female teacher is unacceptable. I prefer to describe her as a guide for juvenile sexual growth. Sex is mature in her, and the sexual relationship between them will be a good memory. The female teacher will not take anger at him because of the betrayal of the boy, and will finally feel happy for her growth. This is how they should have ended, with the teenager snuggling in her arms after the last intercourse, telling her to end the relationship. Without saying a word, she stroked the boy's hair and shed tears.
