As an ordinary person who is neither high nor low, I cannot empathize with the voices and emotions of the upper class, and at the same time I cannot personally understand the drunkenness and dreams of the marginal world. Fortunately, it was the movie that gave me a chance to try to feel, understand and think about their life state.
The movie recommended today is such a work that focuses on the tragic fate of the underlying characters, telling the stories of homosexuality, cowherds and street gangsters. This collection of violent blood and erotic desires may sound a bit curious and even terrifying, but the director did not deliberately exaggerate these elements, but instead tried to explore and interpret the behavioral motivations and emotional logic behind the tragedy. It was heavy and depressing, and it was the innate temperament of this movie.
This is the only movie that has been listed as a restricted level by the Ministry of Culture of Taiwan in the past decade. It was also at the 52nd Golden Horse Awards that she won 10 nominations in one go and finally won four magical works: Best Editing, Best Supporting Actress, Best New Actor and Best Original Music Awards. At the same time, the film was awarded the Best Picture Award by Berlin's most influential gay magazine, Siegessäule.
This is:
Drunk and dream of death (2015)
Screenwriter: Zhang Zuoji
Starring: Li Hongqi / Huang Shanghe / Lu Xuefeng / Zheng Renshuo
is like an ant, like dust, but I know I exist
Taipei Film Festival jury chairman Chen Guo once commented on this movie: "Everything is very good, nothing to say."
And the director and screenwriter of this film Zhang Zuoji set a record--the first winner in the history of the Golden Horse Awards to serve his sentence.
Why serves sentence? Because of sexual assault!
Regarding this sexual assault case, the news said:
During the trial of the court, Zhang denied the sexual assault, arguing that he had excessive drinking that day, only fragments of memories were left, and he only remembered that he kissed the woman and did not remember whether he had sex. However, the test report found his DNA and believed that he should have sex with the woman. Zhang's three lawyers said that the two parties had a mutually sympathetic relationship.
So on the day of the Golden Horse Awards, he was still serving his sentence in prison.
, no longer pursue what is right or wrong. Back to the movie itself, it can indeed be called a new classic of a Taiwanese movie:
Dark, which is the main color of this movie. In this movie, any fresh and small literature seems to be a defilement. Dirty is its new annotation to Taipei.
This is a family living at the bottom of society: a mother abandoned by her husband, and two sons who rely on her mother Fuyang.
For the sake of life, her mother became the mother Sang in the hotel, and since then she was accompanied by wine, and she was drunk and dreamed of death:
The person who played this mother is Taiwanese actress Lu Xuefeng. She only has four shots in the entire film, but she won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actress.
The eldest son Shanghe is gay and can be called a top student. He has gone to the United States to study. During the day, he is a white-collar worker in a film company, but at night, he becomes the cowherd in a gay bar.
The youngest son "Rat" can be said to be the male protagonist of this film. He does nothing and works as a little helper in the vegetable market. He has a perverted and irritable personality.
Their family also has a tenant named Renshuo. Everyone likes to call him Shuo Brother, who is the top brand in a Cowherd's shop.
Shuo Ge has many girlfriends, which makes Mouse admire him very much and thinks that he can handle all women in the world. But who would have thought that Brother Shuo is also the one who is most dedicated to love. He once used the money he had to support his girlfriend to treat his illness, and even cut one of his own kidneys to his girlfriend:
For love, he continued his cruel love words and kept looking for the next partner.
This is the composition of this family:
drunk, mother
life, Renshuo
dream, big brother
death, mouse
This film does not have a beautiful shot, the whole movie has many animals: dead fish, dead rats, maggots, ants, pig heads ~ (The camera below is completely real shot, thousands or hundreds of maggots crawling on the mother, all are real.)
have many feelings: mother-son relationship, heterosexuality, homosexuality, sister-brother relationship.
In the film, the eldest son and Shuo brother who had just experienced the gangster beating, had sex at home. The two actors went all naked and did not use a substitute at all:
There are many "bloods" in the film: the blood of mother falling to the ground, the blood of Inshuo being stabbed by a bottle opener, the blood of the client's genitals, the blood of Inshuo's first love brother being stabbed by a mouse (the whole movie is too dark, especially when the mouse kills people, the black and red blood flows in the camera)
And the only place that can be called romantic is a clip of the mouse and the mute girl:
He made a handful of bananas into a banana flower for her to eat.
Sprinkle the wine into the shape of "LOVE" and use the fire to light it.
willfully buy N bottles of Yakka and drink them all at once.
The simplest kiss:
Apart from that, we can no longer see any fresh shots:
pokes through someone else's throat
beats the man's balls
At the end of the video, the mouse fantasizes about him standing by the river with his mother, and his mother pours out all the wine, he releases the fish, and then the two of them hug each other. This, perhaps, is their best liberation and redemption.
The film also has a highlight. Li Bai's poem "Add to Wine" appears in front of the film. The background also sounds from time to time. It is close to the theme and also coherent the plot.
This is "Drunk and Dreaming": A group of people with low life and humble life are like ants. Although dark, it also reflects the love of people living in the lower class. Life is helpless. People are the most real when they are drunk. Only when they are drunk can they get temporary paralysis.
" It's another peaceful rainy day, and I remembered the people I miss again. I really hope that they can be like ants, always by my side and never leave me"--Mouse
