I don't know if I chased the movie "Pearl" with Uncle Oxygen.
It is no exaggeration to say that the heroine is indeed crazy.
92-year-old actress Mia Goss also contributed to the queen-level acting skills of gothic horror films, which is a scarlet lust bead that is completely different from the sweet girl Little White Flowers.
It will be released in September 2022 at the North American and Venice Film Festivals
As a prequel to the unpopular R-rated horror movie "X", it tells the experience of an evil old lady who has been chained to a farm all her life when she was young.
It reveals how a generation of god-killers went from a girl full of dreams and yearning for freedom, step by step in the struggle of love and reality to madness.
This is an exploration and irony of human nature from a female perspective.
It also makes us have to face some problems again, put aside the conservative concept of avoidance, distortion, and criticism of sexual freedom, and how to accept those lusts that still exist and even become more and more intense when purity and vitality continue to pass.

And desire is the most difficult to control, the desire to see through the red dust may be in a single thought, or the desire that was originally a spark has become a fire under continuous suppression.
The heroine in "Pearl" has a desire for the scarecrow in the farmland, as if it is a love scene between Dorothy and the scarecrow
Especially in the context of the current global economic downturn, women's aesthetics are once again affected and prefer a relatively conservative and stable style, and at the same time, basic rights and reasonable desires are once again entrapped.
If we really want to create a good and sustainable development environment, we must first learn to respect women's basic human rights. A society that cannot face up to the attractiveness of women will not be a society that can promote win-win development between the two sexes.

Lust beads: the contradiction between warmth and madness
The literal translation of the prequel "Pearl of Pearl" should have been pearls, but Uncle Oxygen felt that the translation of "Pearl of Desire" was a brilliant attack on the soul.
It is like a control group of stereotyped female images under the male gaze: a contrast between white pearls and bright red dancing girls, a contrast between purity and desire.
At the moment when desire is stimulated, the color of human nature also changes from pure and ignorant blue and white to a thick red.
Under the male aesthetic gaze, almost every girl has a dream of becoming the focus of the stage, and they are wrapped in a moving carcass by the desire to shine and gorgeous.
Like Nicole Kidman, known as the "sparkling diamond" in "Moulin Rouge".
Director Buzz Ruhmann's "Red Screen Trilogy" is the last | The other two are "Heroes of the Dance Country" and "Romeo and Juliet"
Such a top beauty with stars and moons is also inseparable from the identity of Kabuki.
And her songs and dances are full of naked carnality, materialism, and love.
The portrayal of great beauty by male aesthetics is similar in ancient and modern China and abroad, that is, the embodiment of desire is whitewashed with elegant art.
Even the Gong Emperor of the Earth Mother level has to rise step by step from a generation of dancers Little Jinbao.
"Shake, shake, shake to grandma bridge"
Or Princess Margaret, whose status is as revered as the king's sister, can only fall victim to political marriage, forced to sink in extravagant and corrupt court battles, and become a generation of merry pearls.
What's worse is Anna, who already has everything, she is young, beautiful, and noble, but for love, she collides with her hypocritical and indifferent husband and selfish and indifferent lover, and finally loses everything to commit suicide.
"Anna Karenina"
These female figures who dare to pursue love are like gorgeous and fragile pearls in the environment of dogs and horses created by men.
Whether it is the involuntary Kaki Nicole in the movie, or the Nakamori Akina who is obviously a generation of singers in reality but still can't escape the harm of scumbags.
At first glance, they may seem very different and have little to do with it, but they are actually trying to interpret the story of women breaking through the confines of men and gaining self-recognition.
From being forced to dye colors, to blooming your own bright colors.

Dilemma: Misogyny & "Veela"
In order for women to better understand their environment, everyone should read Chizuko Ueno's book "Misogyny".
After reading it, Uncle Oxygen feels that the women's rights that some men currently think are actually just women's pursuit of equal rights. And misogyny is not only from the male perspective, in many cases women will unconsciously fall into the dilemma of misogyny.
Because it is undeniable that the current society is still dominated by male power. In order to maintain the subjectivity and superiority of the male group, the male homesocial desire from men needs to be other, regarded as the object of desire, and despised.
It is also known as misogyny.

At the same time, we will find that men tolerate homosexuality much less than women, also because they want to ensure the dominant position of the male group. To put it bluntly, it is to consolidate the position of the vested interests.
This patriarchal environment will inevitably lead some women to be forced to take the road of "flattery". Because in order to gain more "popular" recognition, it is necessary to accept the rules of "popularity". At the same time, they strive to appear more "different" than other women, making themselves symbols of scarcity or superiority, such as "socialite".
However, to borrow Hong Huang's interview, there is no so-called real celebrity in our social structure and cultural system.
The term "famous woman" had a higher level title in the earlier Republic of China period and in the context of men's rights, called "famous pieces".
Literally, the physical and chemical properties are already very serious, that is, objects that can meet their extremely high requirements. Simply put, it is to be young, beautiful, rich and powerful, and at the same time dependent on the male power environment.
However, women who can meet this requirement can already break away from this standard of judgment and create their own value system.
Think not to cater to male desires, but to find out what the source of your desires is.
When women take the initiative to think and see through the logic behind male behavior, they can initially get rid of the control of "misogynistic" thinking guided by the patriarchal context.
56 Kurfürstendamm
Just like the Kangcan dance, which originated in 19th century France and originally meant scandal, rumors, and released desire, it was originally known for its fragrant movements of "lifting skirts and kicking legs" to please men.
But there is always a feeling from dance that liberates women's body freedom, and thus liberates their own independent will.

Bloom: Searching for true freedom
The process of female will from awakening to hard development is also a process of reasonable release of real desire and demand.
Therefore, the image of the big heroine, the evil girl, and the beauty of the pearl will be sought after by everyone to take its essence and remove its dross. Including the already live-action Disney princess series "The Little Mermaid", there are also many people who love the villain Ursula deeply.
The 99-year-old sister Jessica Alexander is the live-action actor of this career-oriented crazy villain, and from her demeanor, you can also see the confidence and calmness of women in vanity fair after independence.
When women are not addicted to the pursuit of male recognition of gender games, they can break free from the shackles of thinking and go to a rational and objective perspective.
This point Hong Huang has long revealed the secret in the 2005 movie "Infinite Movement", is he ashamed to talk about it? Not at all, it is precisely describing the truth.
It's just a pity that it's difficult for us to see such a sharp and profound line in the current film and television works.
Emancipating the mind is the first step to liberating the body. The natural charm of women that fascinates us and makes us dizzy stems from their being in a state of fulfilling their own wants, not satisfying the needs of others.

At this time, we will find that men are on the side that is guided and driven.
If you want to ask, is there an ideal culture in reality, a culture of equality that can break away from the status quo and create a new framework of relations?
At present, equal rights that are closer to the ideal state are the Mosuo culture, which is based on the matrilineal family as the basic social unit.
Although it is a matriarchal society, it shows equal gender relations: you are you, I am me, we are independent individuals who need to respect each other.
Interviewed by Dashratso
Before coming into contact with the Han Chinese, they did not have an understanding of the concept of "marriage". Because they have always retained the Mosuo people's own peculiar and magical wedding customs--- visit marriage.
It's a relationship based on genuine love, not tied to family, wealth, or even children.
At the same time, this very open relationship is also very sincere, and those who want to satisfy their personal desires will also be asked: "Are you so confident? Are you that charismatic? Do you think you're so handsome? "The social death of the three consecutive tortures repelled.
Leaving aside a few ideal social circumstances, most women still find themselves in widowhood and fall into the dilemma of either erupting in silence or dying in silence.
"Pearl"
And at present, in this recession period where the length of the skirt is getting longer and longer + the heel is getting shorter and shorter, the status quo of women's independence that is finally blooming is a little suppressed and retracted, so everyone will always sigh that both the environment and the aesthetic are even inferior to the nineties.
But the more so, the more we should work to change the environment. When each individual stands up, it will naturally support the group of heavens.
