An unusual love story.

Rating: 8/10 (5 May 2020)

It's not just that it takes the quirky Angle of "nerds falling in love with computer operating systems," but that at least director spike jonze explores "everything about love" in a way that's so refreshing it's a cinder. Most classic romance movies, I think, are treated like war movies. How the main characters fall in love is not the point: one chance encounter is expected to last forever, one eye promise to last forever, and the focus is mostly on overcoming obstacles: romeo and Juliet against family feuds, Roman holiday has class gaps, brokeback mountain is a gender barrier. To put it bluntly, it's all about the "fight to be together" that starts with sex drive -- the audience is happy to accept the "love at first sight" premise and then watch the protagonist fight his way through it.
This kind of love movie hypnotizes the audience the sharp weapon, is the leading character entire process holds the determination "no matter what, I want us to be together", what is the end point?The heart-wrenching love movie ends with our heroic courage, and the lover ends up as a family member. The love movie that tears people's tears ends with a strong enemy.It's not a war movie. What is it?
That's what I love about "Her," and what I find new. The dialogue in the script is too interesting: although the film talks about "man-machine love",But Spike was smart enough to use "future world" "" Set to resolve the public's acceptance of this kind of abnormal love.He just used this special angle to study the causes of pheromone fermentation after physical attraction and to explore the law of the death of love outside the external resistance.This observation is even more extreme and pure when one side of the relationship is set to a fleshless computer operating system.
Perhaps in Spike's view, sexual attraction is insurmountable, but frustrating.Whether it's the opening scene where the main character peeks at pornographic pictures on the subway, or the extremely stupid and sad "Cyber-Sex", or the subsequent attempt of the system OS to rent a body.The directors are all elaborating on such a thing: sex is the most primitive and less important part of human relations. It is an appendix that cannot be removed in the human communication system, and it is also a blinding method that hinders our self-cognition.
After getting rid of the shackles of the body, the essential obstacle of human communication is to cross the gap of self-consciousness.
It is not easy to build a solid relationship with others, one by communication, the other by compromise.
Communication is the most urgent and difficult thing for people. In addition to survival, people need to communicate to solve all spiritual problems such as loneliness and fear.When I was young, I cried when I was hungry, shouted when I was afraid, adolescence, hormones were strong, and I was eager to say "like", which were direct enough, but lacked skills.People think that with the growth of age, the more skilled skills, communication problems will be solved.On the contrary, the more accurate the expression is, the more it deviates from the purpose of the expression; the more familiar the expression is, the more doubt the sincerity of the expression, of course, and the other.
In her, jiekunfeinikesi, as a mail agent writer, is skilled at "Transfer" emotion, but thus fell into a greater obstacle to expression.Since he is better than others at creating false lyric, in the real world, the more lack of window to express true feelings.That's why Theodore can successfully flirt at the dinner table. That's technique.But because the other side of a sincere question and panic, that is the essence-good adults tell lies easily, tell the truth is difficult, say the heart is even more difficult.
Adult communication costs a lot, and sometimes it has nothing to do with courage and sincerity, but because everyone lives in their own world.I love the part in the movie where Amy Adams as Amy plucks up the courage to show her husband and Theodore her own documentary, and she's so full of anticipation that they don't know why.The embarrassment of "you think you know me, but you don't know me" really makes any words of relief from Theodore and advice from Amy's husband seem silly and superfluous.
If you doubt the conclusion that everyone has a strong desire to express, but in fact others do not care, think about it in reverse.How many times do we talk to others in a perfunctory way, pretending that we care, or even giving sincere advice with exaggerated expressions, without actually taking it seriously?When the OS system does the basic test for Theodore, it interrupts the indifference without waiting for Theodore to express his feelings, which is the normal inner play of human communication.
