Chapter 1728: Villain Protagonist Movie?(2/2)
Because this clown doesn’t want money, worldly success, or respect. He is a complete “anti-hero”, and “anti-hero” is also a kind of “heroism.” This is what distinguishes clowns from other criminals.
The difference is, because he still believes in something, and he wants to prove that his belief is correct.
Therefore, when facing the Joker in "The Dark Knight", everyone will be afraid. He is not cowardly or stupid. He has a strong will and lives in a completely different world from us. We cannot call him an "alien" because we "
Can't understand".
The Joker in "The Dark Knight" is like Dr. Hannibal in "The Silence of the Lambs". He is like a dangerous and huge flame, running with an inner core that we cannot understand. Compared with mediocre moviegoers, they are...
Stronger "vitality" burns vigorously. Because we understand that Batman's "vitality" is an imagination of an idea, an image that infinitely elevates ourselves, which is false and untrustworthy. The Joker and Hannibal instead embody a kind of
A more authentic, vigorous and credible "vitality".
In fact, to put it simply, whether it is the Joker in "The Dark Knight" or Hannibal in "The Silence of the Lambs", they are more scary, but they are special and not universal.
But the scary thing about the clown in "Joker" is that, as Lin Yunbin said, he may even be "universal"!
This is undoubtedly a terrible thing.
Because what happened to the clown will make some viewers feel that what he did was "right" to a certain extent!
"The clown is actually a poor guy. In my opinion, he is a textbook poor guy. He was adopted, his adoptive mother is mentally ill, he is abused by his adoptive mother's boyfriend, he is lonely, he is bullied by strangers, he is wrongly blamed by his boss, and he is framed by his colleagues.
Being ridiculed by others, being ignored by others, trying hard but not succeeding, and suffering from mental illness myself.
Haven't you noticed that this is how all modern people today who feel sorry for themselves describe their lives? Which young person complains online about something other than this? The violence on the Internet is indeed getting worse and worse, and clowns are an enlarged version of our self-pity.
This is really a terrible thing.
What about the other protesters in the story? They are crude, brutal, brainless, and stereotyped images of smashing, smashing, and robbing. They are countless mediocre people whose self-pity is magnified.
So, if this story is made into a movie, then I can't help but wonder, what exactly is this movie going to show? Are rich people noble and just, and poor people are brutal and stupid?
All sane and normal people will tolerate it with humor and open-mindedness, because they rationally realize that there is nothing they can do. Those who resist are all bad guys and lunatics.
