The influence of Nina's mother, who completed the art of moving the older girl's beauty, was influenced from an early age by the fact that she had become a famous actress and one of the masters of the New York ballet. Mother's stubborn maverick also seems to be subtly influencing the growth of her young daughter. Right now, the young Nina pulls its weight as she embraces the first opportunity in her career to take part in a workout and compete for the lead role in the famous ballet "Swan Lake". Director Thomas has also seen the potential of Nina and she promptly alerted me. However, the heroine Thomas requires not only ballet white swan noble purity and kindness, but also on the black swan evil, cunning, passionate and sexy. In the competition, Nina idly displays the beauty and quality of her superior White Swan, and her formidable rival Lily also brilliantly renders the Black Swan with ups and downs, earning both the director and their peers rave reviews. The rivalry between Nina and Lily is inevitable, even if the level of artistic expression steps up from the spirit of distorted attacks and entangling situations. Deception, self-mutilation, and even homosexuality are staged in one series. Nina also takes a step on the path of self-destruction.
The immense mental stress and intense competition, Nina hallucinates and suffers from schizophrenia, hallucinating killing her competitors and, in fact, harming herself to put an end to her own life as the perfect White Swan.
Art appreciation in addition to the psychoanalytic point of view, the taste of watching the film is everywhere psychoanalytic:
The heroine Nina has a power, very controlling, very high expectations of her mother. As a kind of spiritual pillar, without her husband, lost cause, the mother to the daughter is seen as a tool to achieve their aspirations. I sacrificed my career to be able to give birth to you" and other catchphrases, was imprisoned Nina, who could only be a "loving daughter" by letting the mother control, including forcing to play the piano, eat as much cake as possible, dressing, undressing, fingernails, daughters with love to control and interfere in the privacy of daughters. The child is forced to learn ballet (in the play the mother says: "If I follow you to learn ballet, you will have to come to Da"), and grows up to become one of the first performers in a well known new New York City Ballet, headed by Da. The mother's desire to worth Nina's subtle influence and internalize their goals. The relationship between Nina and her mother is one in which the mother guides or pressurizes and expects Nina to move in the right direction, not to go off on a tangent, you can not resist, not to have your own opinions and emotions, or to want to qualify Nina to lead the dances, and she lets Nina eat the cake by sticking to the stubborn pink pajamas. And jackets, sheets, a room full of stuffed animals Yoga said Nina, a 28-year-old girl.
Internal subconscious self-consciousness and influence on the external environment: the director, Lily, Nina's mother represents the control inspired by the opposition, bound to yell: Get out, and tell her: "Your daughter now." Discovered that the role of the "Black Swan" engulfed her daughter, but it was too late, when the mother, the mother's values of worldview, outlook on life, values have been y implanted in the daughter's heart aspiring to success, ambition, the pursuit of perfection, her superiors. The process of growing up is not only pleasure, more pain, confusion, fear, such as the snake transformation, find a tonic suddenly peeling skin pain, there are also many desires, temptations, on the journey, looking for self-medication, go to the bar to indulge, transgender friends, very confused about what to fear their own inner mother and repress the desires of all these aspects. Forming a heart in conflict with Nina.
From a psychological point of view, the characters in the movie can be seen as different personality types of Nina: 1) his mother, symbolizing a hyper-intrinsic sense of morality, of authority; 2) the director, and authoritative, inner wisdom of the old man, who guides Nina as she grows, "Defeating the phoenix can turn it into a butterfly. The "hold" of the show itself; 3) the imaginary enemy Lily, Nina's freedom to suppress instinctive desires.
The visual movie of Nina's inner growth has a lot of metaphorical lenses:
Mother draws - the picture of what her daughter wants in real life, and the mother also carves her own daughter according to her own desires.
Continuous backward scratching fingers bleeding - awakening to the growth, identifying a metaphor for the price Nina has to pay for hatching;
3. over and over again, compared to my mother - fear of the metaphorical mother lost again, the loss of her husband and the career hinders the growth of Nina's self-development;
Pink pajamas, jackets, bedsheets, a room full of plush toys Yul, says Nina! 28 year old mother of a young girl's upbringing;
5. Torn Fingers - Nina tries to transform, but the pain is shallow, but the desire for autonomy, freedom collides from time to time (scratching her back, his breakthrough);
6. Black Swan's Wings - Symbolizes transcendence, liberation from frustrating situations.
Bleeding fingers - this means heart in conflict with betrayal of mother, guilt. The desire for integration
8, Lily of the same sex - personality: simple, cute, fragile, submissive flamboyant "White Swan" and defiant, independent, unruly, daring to love and hate "Black Swan" integrating swaps business and growth. Black and White Swan are appropriate for Nina to control the repressed personality, the personality transition to an open and free. It represents desire, struggle, not cowardice, not hiding, not suppressing all desires.
BR /> Nina's death by suicide - a metaphor for the ultimate result of the pursuit of a perfect personality, is to pay the price.
The psychological background of the story of the movie, especially something subconscious, another level than other types of movies, because of its popularity among the people, although the story of people's hearts are heavy, but left people endless thinking, especially for those who did his parents.
> felt that the director Darren Aronofsky, not just a director, or a master of psychoanalysis, otherwise they would not have made such a professional psychological movie appreciate him!
Psychological thriller "Black Swan": Hidden in the heart of the Black Swan
The movie "Black Swan" is a psychological thriller behind a series of disaster movies in 2012, in which mankind or the Earth was destroyed and humans reacted to the fear of death. "tells the story of a dancer too heavy pressure, such a huge role in neurasthenia, and even the story of death, behind the fear of nothingness reaction to the human quest.
In 2010, director Alan Malinowski premiered "Black Swan" as a film at the Festival's Golden Lion and a finalist at the 67th Venice Film Festival. It is a psychological thriller, the film heroine Nina two roles, starring in the opera "White Swan Black Swan" Swan Lake ballet opera, phantom before and after his inner horror.
Originally, the opera "Swan Lake" has two important roles - the White Swan and the Black Swan. The white swan is good and beautiful; the evil black swan, very seductive. Under the devil's spell, the white swan, which is a beautiful princess, turns into a white swan, and she can only regain her human form after midnight. One day, the prince occasionally hunted the white swan in the lake, she talked to the prince about his personal life, the prince fell into deep pity love, he decided to rescue the swan princess. The White Swan tells him that only someone who truly loves her is willing to go for her, in order to lift the spell. The prince prepares to host a dinner party at which the White Swan dines and sincerely proposes to her. However, the Devil makes his daughter fight to become the Swan Princess to see, but dressed in black, goes to the party and seduces the Prince. The prince thinks only the Black Swan is the Swan Princess, so he dances with her regardless and announces the engagement. White swan in the window, I heard the despairing cry of grief, wings, flew away ......
The movie "Black Swan" tells the story of the fairy tale "Swan Lake", but about the ballerina Nina. Nina is an excellent ballerina, a child in the New York theater, she practiced ballet, skillful, well-behaved, beautiful, very popular. Thanks in large part to her harsh and cold mother, who disciplined her, Nina grew up to be an exceptionally obedient, hard-working daughter. But Nina's body was less of a spirited passion, youth and vigor did not show her. Nina jumps more carefully at every step, pursuing perfection, self-repression and lack of emotional release. Therefore, when the troupe remade "Swan Lake", Nina's role as the White Swan was the best choice; however, the role of the Black Swan, with its evil, seductive characteristics, Nina was temporarily unable to fulfill the role of conversion.
Thomas, a new actor and opera director, was asked to play the roles of both the Black and White Swan. As we all know, in "Swan Lake", the Black and White Swan is an extremely important role for an actor to play, not only will the career be on a higher level, but also can become famous. Nina was desperate to play both roles. So, Nina approached an opera director, Thomas, and made it clear that she wanted to win this opportunity for her. Thomas finally agrees to let her play both roles, but needs Nina to learn to release emotions, show seduction, and in that regard has always been seductive to her. Artistic ensemble bit dancer Lily, natural, bold, lively and energetic, her performance of "Black Swan" is not only appreciated by everyone, but has also been confirmed by Thomas. Lily is a substitute for the Black Swan, but it also brings Nina tremendous psychological pressure.
Nina, on the one hand, practicing hard on the one hand, it is always terrible to be afraid of someone competing with her in the role. Practicing hard all day, high mental tension, Nina is physically and mentally exhausted. Started her practice, the Black Swan dance section, accidentally sprained; later, due to long-term practice, her toes shoes tied too tightly, toes are almost stuck together. Nina was injured, horrible, too much pressure from the head hand, she was still washing her hands or bathing, saw their nails keep oozing blood - of course, is Nina illusion. Later, Nina often hallucinated that Lilly la one night, she went out to play and came back Hou Nina felt pleasant alternative - but Lily did not come home all night, she was with Lily, and once again, she practiced alone to hear the ring, ran to see the director Thomas and Lily sex - in fact, there is no such thing. By this time, Nina, has emerged as the black and white swan dual personality **** exists.
At the end of the show, Nina's careless actions go wrong, so Thomas is furious. Later, Nina comes to the dressing room and they find Lily in the dressing room and sarcastically say that it would be better to give her the role of the Black Swan, so they have a heated argument and Nina accidentally stabs Lily with a shard of glass - which of course is Lily Nina. Nina drags Lily's "body" into the restroom when she re-enters the locker room, downstream of the blood from the door, and Nina blocks the door with a towel. At this point, Lily has knocked on Nina's door to congratulate her and praise her for playing well. Nina is surprised that the sentence can't be said when she goes to check the towel and here is the bloodless, corpse-free bathroom. That's when she realizes that her prick, Glass, is still in his stomach. Nina was sad and left in tears ......
Nina was saddened by the tears, and my heart kept trembling - a man killed him, but her quest played a role, was it worth it? This move by Nina, well thought out and reacting to what may be the fear of human futility - in the dead there is nothing to fear - as in Norse mythology, the legend of Odin writes: the rich will, their loved ones will, you will, but the one thing I know won't be is what everyone says about the One. "Immortal fame has become a goal for everyone. In real life, the pursuit of fame and "kill" a few movies, but was exaggerated by the artistic approach to show this phenomenon, look at how many of us sit for more than ten hours a day in front of the computer, hard work, how many people in the middle of the evening coffee, refreshing, smoking to stimulate the nerves, overtime in modern society, chronic fatigue, overworked, but the number of them is increasing. The number of people is increasing, but they can not resist this point in the nothingness of life.
The process of life requires work and effort, otherwise life would be empty, without any meaning, however, the essence of life is no work, but no success or fame. Life is a natural process of accomplishing to live one's own life, the other is aided by the fact that we can pursue success, you can still have goals, and you can challenge yourself, but keep in mind that all of these are meant to make life more meaningful, not to obliterate life and gain fame and notoriety. As mentioned earlier, "Zhuangzi - Lord of Life" Zhuangzi understood this passage: "My life is limited, knowledge is unlimited, Scottish men have no limitations in their careers. Already know who is useless just carry on! "Do not intercept the first two sentences, Zhuangzi's real problem is, with a limited life to pursue unlimited knowledge, but also know the danger! Really dangerous!
It seems that Zhuangzi's understanding of life is the most thorough. According to Zhuangzi, life is a major life event, and people have rational thinking. Think about the problems of life, think about the direction of human beings should turn to themselves, not the process of life as a subsidiary goal of society, do not draw on the pursuit of worldly things, conservative life itself needs. The second half of those remarks of Zhuangzi, "good name and surname, which is evil in the last sentence of the sight. Edge of the Governor wants to pass, you can protect yourself, you can complete life, adoptive parents can be the best years. "This is Zhuangzi's philosophy of survival, how to protect themselves is the social life itself is unreasonably damaged"; all students "refers to the life itself is the goal of life activities, human life should be to maintain a full life," foster parents "Care for their health and health care," "the best year" means "the whole life and go out", which is the essence of the understanding of life - not all white swans should be able to play their white swan black swan! Work to be done, too, is good!
Once we understand that life is a natural, we no longer fear anything, and life itself has nothing to say to Zhuangzi's wife, who drummed and sang, is to understand this truth. Zhuangzi said: "Ran began to observe the students; non-apprentice health, invisible; also non-apprentice invisible, no gas spray. Mixed with manfluorene and gas, the gas becomes tangible deformation animation, this situation has been changed by the four seasons of spring, summer and winter stages of death. ...... "Zhuangzi's wife, he was also very sad, but then think about it, is not life, not only no life, there is no body, the most primitive gas, all the chaos, and finally there is a life, human life and death, just like the turnover of the seasons, there is nothing to grieve for, nothingness is emboldened. For we are all from nothing, and better should go to nothingness.
I hope that Nina's, into nothingness, also out of nothingness, hope that mankind can create something out of nothing and without fear.
