Chapter 390: psychological avalanche

The latest website: Sometimes some things are like this, you tell yourself "it's okay, it's okay", and then use your reason to control your emotions, pretending that there is nothing, but those wounds will not disappear because of ignoring and ignoring, if you can't face it, then the wounds Not only will it not heal, but it will start to rot.

In the end, you still have to face yourself.

That's the case with Marvin and Tao Li.

The dinner ended in an embarrassingly awkward atmosphere. After returning to the room, Tao Li was unable to control her depression. She had a conversation with Marvin in the corridor again, trying to reach a consensus.

In this room, Marvin went from being careful and probing to being angry and then to being domineering. The trajectory of his emotions was exposed in the camera. The defensive and attacking postures displayed by body language reflected his inner arms.

In that room, Tao Li went from trying to talk to struggling to bowing her head to compromise. In the picture, you can clearly see the process of losing step by step to making compromises, and the active and passive aspects of the marriage relationship are all clear at a glance.

This scene is really too exciting and too turbulent-

The frame constructed by the camera image is quietly disrupted, and the position and spatial alignment of the couple are changed through lighting and camera scheduling, quietly showing the relationship between the strong and the weak, the active and the passive between the two people. .

And, not only that.

The editing is also very clever, with two short shots briefly appearing in the murmur of the long shot:

One is when Ma Wen was venting his anger, he suddenly cut into a close-up and aimed at Tao Li's slightly twisted profile face. His drooping eyelids couldn't make out the expression, but he could see his slightly pursed lips, as if he was suppressing something. At this time, the result of compromise and forbearance has been foretold.

One is when Tao Li raised her head and lowered her soft voice to communicate with Ma Wen, she suddenly cut into a close-up full-length picture of Ma Wen. You can see Ma Wen folded her arms and stretched her legs, maintaining a posture of attacking at any time. He's on guard, and he can continue to attack if needed.

The two shots are not long, that is, between one and two seconds. They flash and then disappear, but they do not feel interrupted at all. After a slight pause, they are like rocks between babbling streams. The stream became turbulent because of the protruding reefs, but the rocks were not enough to cut off the stream, so the water was still gurgling and the veins were still there.

then--

From the confrontation in the marriage relationship to the connection between the gender relationship, the emotions conveyed by this corridor scene caused different ripples in different audiences, until the sudden noise from the downstairs of the resort disrupted the communication between the two people. The conditioned reflex between them further conveys the complexity of the relationship.

In the next scene, the conversation ends, the couple reconciles, and then the two wash up in the bathroom to rest, and the invisible frame around the picture reappears, a long shot of a fixed camera.

Ma Wen released her hands facing the camera, Tao Li brushed her hair with her back to the camera, and the mirror reflected Tao Li's face and Ma Wen's head.

Marvin turned to stand side by side with Tao Li and faced the mirror. The two began to brush their teeth. At the moment when they brushed their teeth, Vivaldi's "Four Seasons" string burst abruptly for the second time, like a thunderclap on the ground.

boom.

The audience in the screening hall was shocked by the sudden soundtrack, and the overwhelming emotions made everyone tense involuntarily, which also foreshadowed what happened next——

Relish.

Only at this time did the audience realize that the original "Four Seasons" can actually create such a thrilling and surging effect, while being anxious and unable to stop, the shame and pleasure of peeping into other people's lives are intertwined, angels and demons are tug-of-war in their minds, but Still can't contain his excitement.

midnight.

Marvin tossed and turned, and walked to the corridor alone to get some fresh air. Tao Li also followed because she was worried.

The camera, overlooking from the diagonally opposite downstairs, can clearly see Ma Wen's anxiety and Tao Li's urgency, which vaguely indicates that something is about to happen.

However, the audience's "guilty joy" was still rolling in their stomachs, and the camera immediately turned 180 degrees.

shock!

In an instant, the audience thought that their peeping action was discovered, and their hearts trembled in a conditioned reflex; then on the screen, a cleaner who was smoking in the corridor looked at Ma Wen and Tao Li expressionlessly. The action made the two couples unite to express their strong protest:

"Can we have a little privacy?"

It's like protesting to the audience outside the big screen.

There was a rustling sound in the screening hall. Obviously, the audience could feel the bad taste of the director breaking the fourth wall, and the boundary between reality and film did become more and more blurred. , a reaction occurs naturally in the mind, but different ideas have a common focus:

Is it the middle class?

In fact, the smoking and cleaning workers have long been in the corridor. It was obviously Ma Wen and Tao Li who broke his peace, but because they became angry and turned into wicked people, they complained first; obviously there was a problem in the marriage relationship, but they still carefully concealed them in front of outsiders and then pretended that those cracks were not. Existence; even if others do not "attack" at all, they will launch a united front to fight back to maintain the beautiful illusion of the middle-class elite.

The audience, looking at Ma Wen and Tao Li, who share the same hatred from the perspective of smoking cleaners, after the turbulent thoughts settled down, a word quietly emerged:

hypocritical.

On the third day of skiing, things fell apart as expected.

In the morning, Tao Li said that she wanted to ski alone, so Marvin took the two children to ski, and Tao Li enjoyed a little alone time.

On the one hand, Tao Li couldn't bear the fear and timidity in her mind. Through her conversation with the girl in the temporary couple last night, she tried to find some answers:

She is afraid of loneliness, she is using the roles of "wife" and "mother" to find her own sense of existence, she is trying to convince herself that social life and family life can only be chosen between the two, as if she cannot have herself at the same time Become a family bond again.

On the other hand~www.novelmt.com~ Marvin is also in a dilemma. He doesn't know what's going on. The two children don't seem to trust him, and even alienate him; and both children refuse to communicate and dialogue, which makes His patience was being tested enormously.

into the night.

Another bearded friend of Marvin came to the resort to ski with his girlfriend who was in love, and then had dinner with Marvin and Tao Li.

Tao Li was very silent and had almost nothing to say; Ma Wen chatted with two friends. They talked about the couple's views on marriage and future plans. They talked about life, vacation, and career. Planning, without any substantive content, is always stirring Tao Li's nerves.

Then--

"We had an avalanche that day."

Tao Li interrupted the conversation without warning, abruptly and forcefully changing the subject.

The avalanche has finally come.
