Chapter 323: To be alive is to be tortured

Half-white hair,

Huge black-rimmed glasses,

A somewhat numb gaze in the coldness,

Ding Cheng looked at the character in the mirror with a face full of vicissitudes, as a grassroots CID, the pressure not only comes from work, but also from the cruel life of reality.

Strictly speaking, I don't have too many scenes, but in fact, I cut in from the perspective of a bystander, leading the audience into the inner world of the victim and even the murderer.

Looking at the dazzling performances of spring and summer, a spiritual actor, especially the confused gaze, adds a blurry temperament to the character.

I have to say that even though the Hong Kong Island film market is declining, it still enjoys considerable creative freedom.

There are many forms, from Wong Kar-wai's philosophical exploration, to John Woo's violent aesthetics, to Stephen Chow's nonsensical comedy......

There are masterpieces in every field, especially restricted-level crime movies, which account for a large proportion. The first few scenes were the scene of the murderer's body at the beginning, and the director didn't even let go of the details.

This is the unique wharf culture, which also gives crime movies a suitable space to grow, because half of the Hong Kong character is water.

The mobility brought about by commerce gives the city a strong sense of wandering. Walking in Tsim Sha Tsui at 12 o'clock, it is still brightly lit and crowded.

Accidentally turning into the Chungking Mansion, Indian uncles surrounded the dim light to peddle spices.

Escape to the iSQUARE mall across the road, but it is modern and modern, and the trendy men drink coffee in the store endorsed by Angelababy.

Low-rent housing and high-end apartments face each other, and residents on both sides live in peace of mind. The baptism of multiculturalism allows the audience to tolerate differences and accept different scales of film and television.

The other half of the Hong Kong character is an alley, and the alley is lined with signboards, or the vegetable market is noisy, or deserted and dilapidated, which is always an indispensable scene in Hong Kong films, full of market atmosphere.

The reason is very simple, like "Golden Rooster", even if she is a dust girl, as long as she lives.

Like "Lame Hao", although the rivers and lakes work hard, they are happiest when they are full.

Or like "Sweet Honey", even if you are a low-level person, even if you are not vigorous, you have to fall in love well.

finally understood that the director actually wanted to find the fainter and weaker Hong Kong flavor, born with the water, prosperous and easy to come, prosperous and easy to disperse.

Seeing that Shenzhen's high-rise buildings have overtaken Victoria Bay, Shantou's port has come from behind, and Disney's voice in the magic capital is full of ......

This is no longer the unique Asian capital, and it is difficult for Hong Kong films to be coquettish. It's just that the flow, loneliness, and market in the bones will not fade easily.

This work gives Ding Cheng a wonderful feeling, and there is a sense of detachment from being in it!

Look at the whole process with a scrutinizing eye, Wang Jiamei, who is like a lonely chick, and Ding Zicong, who is like a rotten rat.

Each of them is isolated and alone.

When I see them, I can't help but feel sad, hating them for disrespecting life, but lamenting the hopelessness of life.

was shocked to find out,

There is a shadow of our cowardice.

When the plot developed to the point where Jiamei's tablemate self-harmed and saw blood, her face was calm......

Wrote on Facebook: When I turned on the light, I saw a bed covered in blood, and the two of us rolled on the bed like two pigs in a slaughterhouse......

She will never know if her mother asks again: Is it really the kind of heartache that pulls out her bones when she sleeps with a man at night......

I will never see the weakened back of my father in my hometown village north of the port......

Sixteen years of poverty is a delicate age, with the best flesh of youth and the most confused and dull soul in real life.

Economic deprivation...... Dream trampling...... Family Failure...... Men take advantage of toying ......

At this time, she no longer cares about life and death, not to ignore it, but not to understand.

The misfortune of life, the shattering of dreams, the neglect of family, and the frustration of feelings......

Life is like a reverse journey, always cold and warm self-knowing, and finally powerless.

Under the lens, it can't help but be reminiscent of a bird without feet, flying and flying, and sleeping in the wind when you are tired of flying.

The moment she landed, it was time for death.

But as the murderer, is Ding Zicong really heinous?

Even Ding Cheng himself didn't expect it,

I can't help but sympathize and feel sorry for a fat man who kills people and shreds corpses and looks obscene!

He is a person who is more marginal than the fringes in this society, and he lives among the rats and ants every day.

Lost his mother, divorced his father, and had no friends, he played a sideline game in love and lived in a dimly lit room.

He is actually sincere, flesh and blood, and holds his mother's posthumous photo all the time when he sleeps.

Bringing a cat to play with her crush, and even cutting off her fingers, just the blood that flows out of her lust is like her menstruating......

He has low self-esteem...... Impulse...... irrational......

But he didn't understand, and he fulfilled her, but he wronged himself.

In Ding Cheng's eyes, compared to Jiamei, what seems cruel is that the fat man is the one who suffers!

Because of life,

Sometimes it's more desperate than dead.

This is the most cruel carving of life under the blade of helplessness and sorrow of people at the bottom of the bustling city.

On the other hand, he is a perceptive old CID. Divorced, I miss my daughter who follows my wife. The concern is not how the murderer kills the person, but what is the murderer's motive for killing?

The director arranged a counter-climax, confessed the murderer soon after the beginning, and broke up the narrative structure, in order to let the audience better understand the story line, and follow himself to seek the truth.

In the end, it is discovered that poor people must have something to hate, and the family background and living environment of each character are the catalyst for tragedy to happen.

Jiamei has always been in contact with her father in the mainland, but she can only imagine what it feels like for her daughter to be by her side.

In the scene of the prison visit, the murderer's expression was numb, and he sat in front of Ding Cheng in a daze, without saying a word......

Ding Cheng was also speechless, standing from the perspective of the audience, he seemed to know the truth, but endless darkness came to his face.

"The acting is good, work hard and have a future!"

More than 20 days later, the last two scenes were completed, Ding Cheng encouraged the spring and summer full of excitement, quite a potential seedling, although the acting skills are still a little immature, especially compared with other old actors, it is difficult to find an actor who is so in line with Wang Jiamei's image.

Innocent like a child, but lonely and desperate like a dying little beast, innocent and stubborn, desperate while looking forward to it.

With big deer eyes and the appearance of the corners of his mouth facing downward, I have to say that the director's vision is very accurate, and it can only be highlighted on the big screen like a movie, which is more in line with the characteristics of the characters.

If it weren't for Liu Tianwang's quick start and the signing of the contract, he would really be optimistic about this fledgling girl.

"Well, sometimes it's so hard to erase a body!"

At the finale banquet, Liu Tianwang sighed: "Because there is blood, flesh, organs, and hard bones, I like the scene where Ding Zicong confessed how he dismembered his body......"

"It seems that there is a power that penetrates life and death, just like the impure view in Buddhism, through the illusion of love, and through the illusion of life. ”

"Though through the illusion of life, it cannot be through the bewitchment of death. If he is truly through, then why should he live, and why should he die?"
