"Flowers" is an "anti-human" work.
To sum it up in one sentence, it is - "a man has no heart for women at all, but he makes a lot of noise about a group of women".
I think that if a TV series can eventually become a phenomenon, it must be inseparable from emotional dramas. Because only affection is the greatest empathy. As for Mr. Bao's righteousness and heroism, it will not produce transgender attraction.
From a man's point of view, a man who is "close to women but not greedy for women" is very rare. Therefore, when all the women secretly send Qiu Bo to Mr. Bao, and they are all ignored by him, men will think that "this person is very pretending". The more men with this special ability, the easier it is to arouse men's interest in reading. Because, everyone wants to know, will he break the defense in the end.
From a woman's point of view, the three women in the film are all interested in Mr. Bao. There is a sharp edge in one word;A fool's errand;A dark incense floats. Three women in one play, each with its own charm, but unfortunately, none of them are in the eyes of the treasure. Women love to watch this kind of suspenseful emotional drama of whose family the flowers fall to.
Especially at the end of the play, Mr. Bao signaled "forget everything that should be forgotten". But Li Li said that "what should be remembered will be remembered". This contrast is enough to prove that the emotional drama designed by director Wong Kar-wai is an anti-human concept. He can't see the routine routine of a lover eventually becoming a family, he just wants to tearfully want to forget but can't forget the tangled ......In fact, has there really been a two-way emotional intersection between Mr. Bao and the three women?Not at all!Because as soon as Mr. Bao came up, he explained that he was here to do big things. Therefore, all feelings are women's unrequited love, which highlights a hidden value thread: boutique men disdain secular love!This is the gender view that Wong Kar-wai wants to express.
The finale of the film can be described as a happy merit, but it is limited to money. However, the feelings left behind are full of devastation.
For a man, two women cried a lot, one woman left home, and three women arranged a love tragedy. In the end, Mr. Bao successfully eliminated the interference of the world and did the big thing he wanted to do. So, what exactly is a woman in this process?
Wong Kar-wai portrayed Mr. Bao as a man without seven emotions and six desires, and he became a painted skin. The women are nothing more than painting this skin with all kinds of brilliant colors. Shake it, the color is gone, and there is just a piece of painting skin left.
I think that the treasure in Wong Kar-wai's hands is not a real man with flesh and blood, but the incarnation of a Buddhist man he imagined, and the woman who appeared next to him is like a daughter country. Therefore, it is not surprising that the film is finally Buddhist......Just like "Journey to the West", the Supreme Treasure is unparalleled in the world, but it is impossible to move the ordinary. The women who stayed behind were trapped by love, but they did not prevent the Supreme Treasure from going west freely and freely.
Logically, there is a suspicion of dwarfing women. However, anyone who has watched "Journey to the West" has no sense of dwarfing a woman. If you want to, there is only a sigh for "Zixia Fairy committed suicide for love";To have, there is only an understanding of "the Supreme Treasure is not messy", because, after all, he is a monkey.
Flowers is different, Bao is not a fairy, but a mortal, and there is no magic spell that can stop him from falling in love. If you have to give an explanation, you can only say that Wong Kar-wai is a Buddhist person, and there is no other explanation.
