Where in the world speaks outrageous truths and does sensational evil things without being punished? It is the stage, where the actors perform. "Annette" directed by the powerful director Karax, appeared at the Cannes International Film Festival. The style of this film is paradoxical, but it is very refreshing to watch. Today, I will talk about the aftermath. Silence. So far, I have watched a lot of foreign movies, and I have also touched some musical films, mainly the humanoid films of Indian Bollywood who are good at singing and dancing. Of course, when they sang, it was more like a high-pitched song of urgency to find the toilet when emotions were fluctuating. "Annette" is more of a stage play, leading you to the audience from the beginning, telling the dear audience: Don't talk, the good show is about to begin. In the play, the dialogue between the protagonist and the supporting roles is mostly in the form of duet, as if the singing performed in the medieval court, with a feeling of pretending to be x. On the one hand, the lyrical nature of the song divides the complete narrative, and the film hides more empathy possibilities. On the other hand, unusual dialogue , which also made the show's stage feel serious, like moving a stage play to the screen, but his audience is everyone here. Of course, if you're lucky, you'll be immersed in it. If you are unlucky, you will feel that the unpleasant singing is the failure and offense of the bold director. (I'm lucky.) You can imagine that foreigners who watch our musical, if we use the folk singing like Liu Sanjie's, might be immersed in it. I mentioned the stage many times? Yes, it is an important element of the film. The male protagonist Henry, the female protagonist Ann, and the daughter Annette have all performed on stage. The comedian has always been a hard worker, he wants the audience to laugh successfully, and if he can't, he'd better pack up and leave. Too much emphasis on laughter may be asking or giving, but it is not a matter of benefiting the body and mind. Otherwise, it will make you bad. In the movie "Joker", the guy who can't control his smile and laugh so horribly and painfully is the clown. Henry, the male protagonist in "Annette", undoubtedly also plays the role of the clown, trying to tear the smiles of those goddamn audiences away. Every time the green-haired ape goes on stage, he warms up, eats bananas, and smokes. Warming up is to kill the audience and make them laugh to cardiac arrest; eating bananas is to replenish physical strength, after all, murder requires physical strength; and smoking is to numb oneself, to convey, with a smile, those deep-seated feelings of disgust and shame. Opera performers have always been full of energy and justice, singing the praises of greatness and abandoning evil, and saving the world in an upright and dignified manner. The heroine Ann is an angel and a queen. The apple she likes to eat is the forbidden fruit, and she tastes love, and she also tastes love that does not return. The director's inhuman setting of her daughter Annette makes the whole film cast a paradoxical style, but it is also in line with her role as a tool person in the early stage. It is regarded as the crystallization of love, as a shield, as a cash cow. The three protagonists are the people on the stage. Apart from the conductor who plays a role in promoting the plot, the supporting roles in the film are the audience. The interaction between the audience and the protagonists is a very interesting point. It seems that under the director's setting, the audience is not a good person. They yearn for excitement, such as death, such as vulgar jokes, such as hunting and miracles. In the green and miserable auditorium, they are Wumai's diners, crazy and restless. Did it also remind you of those crazy fans? The irony here is self-evident. Following the mentality of the male protagonist Henry, we can see deeper themes. Would the protagonists change their behavior if they knew that they were on stage and that someone was staring at them? Will not! The male protagonist will not have a sense of immorality. If he can, he will destroy the audience, just like he is shaking the microphone in the air, the wind is whimpering, and he will lose his hand at any time. As expected, it finally fell on the lucky audience ( an old man). Henry once said that he yearned for the abyss. This characteristic causes him to be extremely unstable, and he will slip into an unknowable state at no time, be it rage, jealousy, alcoholism, or the urge to destroy. What is the abyss? Maybe everyone has heard the phrase, "When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you." We should know that "staring into the abyss" is not the norm for a bad guy. Some men push the people next to their pillows to the cliff for high insurance and wealth; some students poison the water dispenser and kill their classmates because of jealousy; some professors bully students out of selfish desires, and finally end up forever. The end of the sun... There are desires in the abyss, and the black chains condensed from the pain everyone has experienced, which often make people have a tendency to self-destruct. However, no one would have imagined that when you were so intimate at the time, riding a motorcycle under the dark of night with both thighs exposed and being blown by the wind, you would one day kill you. In fact, the self-destruction here is not only to destroy oneself, but also to destroy everything that one cares about, whether it is love, family affection, or friendship. Maybe once, he cared so much, and regarded it as a treasure, more than loving his own life, but so what? The inertia of the devil in the heart is so great, how many angels must be filled? After all, the two are different, angels like to eat apples, and demons like to eat bananas.
