The same incident from different perspectives, 1001 painful restraints
After the bloody incident, are we condemning the evil person or the "evil" itself?
has launched 6 episodes and has a Douban score of 9.4. It has been booked in advance and has the highest score in Chinese TV series of the year - "The Distance Between Us and Evil" (hereinafter referred to as: "With Evil"), which is a stunning start to the season of this year.
The most rare thing is that the main creative lineup From the childhood goddess Chia Jingwen to "Hua Tuoye" Wu Kangren, to the familiar face in Taiwanese dramas Wen Shenghao... These people who came out of idol dramas have transformed after the passage of time, and they have all sunk into the dramas and turned into another face
The incident happened by chance, but like a butterfly flapping its wings in South America, it set off a fateful series of despair:
News editor Song Qiaoan, played by Alyssa Chia, lost her son in a theater shooting incident two years ago.
Two years later, she became irritable. Suspicious and sensitive, I can only rely on alcohol to fall asleep every day, forcing myself to indulge in work to escape reality.
The once happy family of four has become scattered and sad. The mother who once had gentle features has turned into a devil who is afraid of Mother's Day. A cowardly woman who blames herself every day for not being able to die with her son. Wen Shenghao plays Song Qiaoan's husband. Herald media person Liu Zhaoguo
As a man, he is restrained and forbearing most of the time. When the murderer's defense lawyer comes to visit, When he asked for cooperation in delaying the execution of the death penalty, he was pushed to the extreme and could only yell, "I am a family member of the victim, I am not God."
Faced with his wife's questioning, he was sad and helpless, leaving the sentence "I will go to Tianyan (pass away)" "My son sleeps in his room" and then hurriedly walked away.
The real emotions began to spread wildly when he looked at the small toys in that room and the pages of the book that no one had opened for a long time - there were no tears, no hoarseness, his hands were burning. Putting down his son's things, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and his glasses were broken with broken light. The silent heartbreaking feeling was like a heavy hammer, hammering into everyone's heart.
As he said, he no longer cares about the murderer Li Xiaoming. Life or death, two years are enough to torture everything beyond recognition. Love is dead, hate is also worn away. So what if you kill Li Xiaoming, you can't get back what you lost.
Look, time It does not heal the wounds. After those bloody cases on TV news end with legal justice, the audience gets the joy of "good will be rewarded with good and evil will be punished with evil". However, after comforting the victims' families, they still have to endure the pain of time. The wounds become infected and fester day after day, leaving no scars and always dripping with blood.
As the same camp of "evil", what kind of life do the family members of those who commit violence live?
In "With Evil", after Li Xiaoming committed a crime, his parents and sister rushed to the door of the victim's mourning hall immediately. They also wanted to do their best to compensate and apologize.
But after witnessing the collapse of the victims' families, His father, who had become unrecognizable overnight, was lying at the door of the mourning hall and crying loudly - a man in his late sixties, the mainstay of the family, wailing like a child with his mouth open, "I can't help it, I really can't help it, so much Man, how do I apologize and compensate..."
Every day and night, people come to the house and break down the door and insults
The front door of the small noodle shop that used to be doing well was splashed with paint and full of obscenities
They sold the house To compensate the victims for their losses was only a drop in the bucket. The family wore masks all the time when going out for fear of being recognized and seen.
In just two years, Li Xiaoming’s father became an alcoholic and his sister was unkempt at home all day long. In a daze - look, more than just a home, a person, and a life have been destroyed?
When Li Xiaoming's mother chose to change her daughter's name, asking her to start over again away from the family, stop mentioning her parents and brothers, and live her own life as an orphan
When Li Xiaoming's sister Xiaowen changed her name to Li Dazhi, Even though I have left that quagmire, I still can’t help but cover my face with my long hair all day long. I still don’t want to talk to people, and I am still sensitive and have low self-esteem. More than 700 days and nights have passed, and the pain is still painful. Time has taken away from everyone. become unfamiliar.
If the Song Qiaoan family, as the family members of the victims in the play, and the Li Dazhi family, as the perpetrators' family members, are both suffering people chosen by fate, then Li Xiaoming's defense lawyer Wang She, played by Wu Kangren, "actively chooses" to face evil and bear doubts. The "weirdo" who criticized him:
At the beginning of the TV series, he was the victim's family throwing feces at him because he defended Li Xiaoming, the criminal suspect who caused 9 deaths and 21 injuries.
Public opinion even launched a large-scale crusade against him: Why? Clear the name of a murderer? Why should we give such an unforgivable person a chance to live? As a defense lawyer for such a person, wouldn’t his conscience hurt?
These words are almost the same as the indignant expressions we have used countless times when we "speak up for justice" on the Internet. For the first time, "With Evil" focuses on the lawyers who defend "evil people":
"The result of a case, It’s not that the sentence will end”
“The best way to deal with the damage is to deal with the aftermath and prevent it, and to find out the cause”
“Even people who are hated by the world should be protected by judicial procedures.”
It’s not to preach coldly. , but you can really be thrown shit, questioned, attacked, and even cannot be understood by your family, and you still have to stick to what you think is "right".
The lawyer played by Wu Kangren allows us to see the most important attitude in the face of such a tragic incident. : What we want to denounce, punish, and eliminate is not a person, but a kind of "evil", the real "evil" itself that can spawn countless evil people.
We must trace it to its source and find ways to prevent it. Deal with it, solve it - that's more important than shooting 100 evil people.
At the same time, it is difficult for us not to think of the year 2019 before us.
is the 15th anniversary of the shooting of Ma Jiajue, the perpetrator of the vicious homicide case at Yunnan University.
is the shooting death of Yao Jiaxin, the perpetrator of the vicious homicide case at Xi'an Conservatory of Music. Anniversary
is the first anniversary of the incident of killing children in Mizhi, Shaanxi.
is also the first anniversary of the incident of killing children at Shanghai Foreign Languages Primary School...
Is it not until we are counted one by one that everyone is as shocked as Sister Ba, what happened to us in these years There are so many tragic and tragic large-scale vicious social revenge incidents around us
. What makes us even more surprised is that these have cast such a heavy boulder in our concept of "the evil of human nature" and have brought countless blood. The shocking and tragic incident that caused countless ripples will actually be forgotten bit by bit as time goes by.
In the end, the justice of the law was properly maintained-and then what?
The perpetrators have all been punished as they deserve--then what?
Media reaction, public opinion pressure, and social attention - but things have changed at that time, and then what?
Did things really end after "a life for a life"? For the family members and relatives of the victim, the family and friends of the perpetrator, and even this society that is constantly frightened, is "execution of the death penalty" the end result?
- "The Distance between Us and Evil" is the first time to look at these irrefutable and unforgivable "evils" in our eyes from a different perspective, from the "evils" that have been completely separated from human nature. To uncover the real motivations and reasons behind the criminals:
It is more than bestiality, more than perversion, it is especially worthy of being investigated because it is related to human nature
- Although no one wants to admit it, we all know that every The distance between individuals and evil is actually very close. Only by truly studying it deeply can we avoid more "evil" in the future, or ourselves become "evil" for one reason or another
Accompanied by the above three main perspectives There is also the perspective of the media and the perspective of society
Every episode of "With Evil" opens with a YouTube news scroll. It is a war of public opinion. The mask and the truth of the matter are distorted through repeated dissemination.
As family members of the victim and the perpetrator, Song Qiaoan, Liu Zhaoguo and Li Dazhi have the same identity - media people. Their perspectives affect their judgment, but their attitude towards the truth also changes the fate of a truth that is about to be annihilated.
"Click-clickbait" and "pursuing the truth", "grabbing time and news" and "insisting on the pursuit of news accuracy", multiple perspectives wrap up the same social issue, peeling off a hidden motive and truth of the crime, "With Evil" Starting from an "evil" stained with blood, we can truly see clearly:
"evil" is not an accidental individual born, and the distance between us and evil is sometimes less than a few millimeters.
After 15 years away from Taiwanese dramas, Alyssa Chia is acting with wrinkles
From idol dramas to real-life dramas, Wu Kangren and Wen Shenghao have made Taiwanese dramas no longer "defined"
Forgot who said it, the most emotional thing when watching "With Evil" is: Alyssa Chia Finally she was willing to act with her wrinkles.
After 15 years of absence from the Taiwanese drama screen, Alyssa Chia is no longer Zhao Min, who is as bright as a rose, nor is she the charming girl who is "one-of-a-kind and has a long-lasting beauty". She has become someone who looks cold and irritable.
The female editor-in-chief has turned into a decadent and vicissitudes of life, a mother who lost her child.
There is always a grimace on her face, even though she is often expressionless; I can't help the paleness and fragility in my bones;
When she was sitting in the parking lot drinking alone, when she was arguing with her daughter, when she was awakened by memories again and again to blame herself and despair - Alyssa Chia did not hesitate to show the time in this drama. The things she left behind include the loss of collagen, the appearance of fine lines, and the time scale between the eyebrows
, but it also includes the beauty brought by profound experience, the true power of being an actor, and the true reality of being a mother. And fresh
She no longer makes you laugh for romantic love fairy tales, but she makes you cry for those bloody but strong realities and love. This is the growth of a woman, and even more of an actor
At this age Alyssa Chia's charm grows like wild weeds, and her joy has its own meaning and weight.
As for Wu Kangren and Wen Shenghao, many years ago, we always saw their handsome faces in Taiwanese dramas, either as the infatuated male lead or as the wealthy husband. They always played a legendary part in every fairy tale.
But today, in "With Evil", one of them is in pain and desolation, unable to escape from the pain of losing a son and the depression of his wife;
one of them was attacked, had feces thrown at him, and was left in a mess - this seems to be the history of They are the least handsome, the smallest characters, and the least special moment, but they are like this, giving us the opportunity to re-examine the blood and truth that we have forgotten.
Speaking of this, it really makes people feel a little sad, In those years, the place we laughed at as "the production place of silly, sweet and outdated idol dramas" already has such profound social issues. It has dared to question the problems of social security, education, and the system.
Dare to question contemporary media The attitude towards "truth", the courage to explore the mental journey of a murderous demon and the lives of all those affected by this murder
This TV series has a total of ten episodes, and it has been broadcast to the sixth episode. It is already full of twists and turns. Going back and forth, new events are constantly used to prove old events, exploring the novelty of public opinion, the public's inertial definition of "evil people", and even using "mental illness to break into the school" to fully elaborate on the nameless malice of society and the media against certain groups of people and "a There are many profound questions such as "How many procedures does it take for a normal person to become a villain?"
Yes, there is no need for 40 episodes, 50 episodes, 60 episodes, or even 70, 89, or 90 episodes. Taiwanese dramas, like Korean dramas, have managed to tell the story clearly in a concise and concise manner, and There is no need for remakes, no need for youthful love, constant entrepreneurship and break-up, and no need to plunge into campus romance and be unable to get out - respect the story, respect the audience, respect the performance of the actors, and respect the reality and meaning itself. "With Evil" allows us to see Taiwanese dramas Start to develop the whole attitude of truly making a good drama.
The meaning of images is to make the momentary become eternal, and to make the easily forgotten become memorable. The meaning of the existence of film and television dramas is also to let everyone witness, experience, empathize, and believe that "the past is forever." It will never really pass."
Punishment is not the end, and sin is not the beginning. Only by understanding the true distance between us and evil can we truly reduce evil and avoid evil, so that all those who have lost due to these "evils" will not lose it in vain - this It's not a whitewash, it's an investigation, it's a real and effective resistance.
Finally, Sister Ba wants to say that the real distance between us and evil lies in whether we denounce the "evil person" or the "evil" itself.
