The third update today, please recommend, please subscribe!

Whether it's Neil D'Arcy or Chris Fairbank, there is no doubt about the praise of "Black Swan", and their remarks are also a microcosm of film critics in the entire North American region. "Black Swan" has almost all the media. Unanimous praise, and they believe that the reason why this work can be called a classic masterpiece, Evan Bell's flexible use of psychological elements is undoubtedly the greatest success.

In the film, Evan Bell's clever use of mirrors runs through the whole film, which is a typical psychological suggestion, including the position, appearance and situation of the characters refracted in the mirror, which have profound psychological effects; reality and illusion The technique where there is no clear line between them is the confusion between "reality and surreal", just as "Mulholland Drive" portrays the dream like reality, so that the audience cannot distinguish the difference between reality and non-reality; The most worth mentioning is that Evan Bell's split personality from the black swan's wings is vividly expressed through the wound at Nina's shoulder blade. In the climax of the story, the wings grew out of the wound. The picture is creepy, but it also presents the process of splitting personality in the most realistic way...

There is no doubt that Evan Bell's ingenious use of psychology can be clearly seen in any corner of the film, including the subway that Nina takes every day, the layout of the bedroom, the suggestion of sexual elements, etc., and even Lian Ni Na's clothing, hairstyle, etc. all have a role that fits seamlessly with the plot.

Like "Inception", "Black Swan" is a work worthy of repeated viewing and research, but the profoundness of "Inception" lies in a brand-new story system and structure, but "Black Swan" The depth of the film comes from countless details, and every time you watch a movie, you will definitely have a new feeling.

For many psychological explanations in the "black swan", people basically agree with Neil D'Arcy's remarks in the "New York Times". Lily represents the object of Nina's yearning and fear of competition; Beth symbolizes Nina's career aspirations and worries about the future; Thomas is Nina's incarnation and guide for the pursuit of perfection.

At present, the biggest focus of the plot is on Lily and Beth. For example, on the eve of the performance, Nina saw Thomas and Lily having **** after the lights in the dance studio. Is it real or fantasy; let's say Nina sees When Lily seduces the prince's actor David, which causes David to lift Nina's hand during the performance, this is fantasy or reality; and the night of Lily and Nina's romance. Is it really just Nina's fantasy? , or Lily deliberately refused to admit it...

A lot of controversy and discussion, this is also the practice of Evan Bell's works, it is normal to trigger heated discussions, and it also proves that the details in the "black swan" have infinite potential for mining, which is worthy of further research. But these controversies never locked in on the role of mother Erica, until a new perspective emerged, which caused serious divisions.

Some viewpoints believe that Erica is a symbol of feminism, and the strong and domineering desire for control directly leads to Nina's personality split; while other viewpoints believe that Erica is actually Nina's third personality, which is a recessive personality, and at the same time Also the master character. After the second point of view emerged, it caused an uproar, and at the same time pushed the depth of the entire work of "Black Swan" to a new peak.

The second point of view was put forward by a professional journal of psychology. The writer was Muller-Lance, Evan Bell's mentor during Harvard University, and this article was actually published in a professional journal. It is indeed Eye-catching.

"Erica doesn't actually exist, it's a subconscious intention of Nina's self-discipline. Nina's mother may have left or died when she was young or a teenager, but she has always kept the love for Erica in her mind. Ka's stern, cautious image, and the way her mother treats her has always retained the strictness and limitations of a little girl, even her room is decorated the way she was a child. Erica is Nina's hidden personality, but also The master personality controls the dominant personality of Nina White Swan.

The authenticity of this theory can be discussed from two perspectives. The first is that all Erica’s words to Nina are Nina’s self-motivation. She relies on her mother who has high expectations and strict requirements for her spiritually. This force keeps pushing her forward, even forcing her forward. Her life is to follow Erica's failed life and get up again and move forward; on the other hand, Erica is still Nina's weak heart. Harbour, when she faces difficulties, she will choose to talk to her mother. When her emotions become restless, her mother will use the phone to remote control. When she loses control of herself, her mother's image will be the last lock.

In short, Erica is the main character that Nina splits out to control herself. For this, Evan Bell revealed many details from the movie.

From the perspective of the overall situation, Erica has only gone out of the house once from beginning to end, and that is to buy cakes - as for the last scene in the theater, it is Nina's own fantasy.

Moreover, Erica has only had a conversation with Nina from beginning to end. In addition, Lily, who appeared at the door of Nina's house, did not have a direct conversation with Erica. Only once, Thomas said that Erica called The phone came to say that Nina was not feeling well and couldn't take the stage, but this was not a face-to-face conversation, it was entirely possible that Nina made a phone call after being controlled by Erika's personality.

In terms of details, the first one is the scene of eating the cake. When Nina refused to eat the cake, Erica was furious and wanted to throw away the garbage. Rika's personality is self-disciplined to ask Nina not to eat too much. Here, Erica's personality is more like a self-discipline valve in Nina's heart, urging her to realize the dream that her mother could not achieve.

And Nina suddenly saw Erica while masturbating, which is even more unreasonable. Because there was nothing abnormal about Nina before that, Erica had absolutely no need to wait by the bedside all night. At this time, it was obvious that Erica reappeared as a self-disciplined personality, indicating that Nina was ashamed of her indulgence.

Lily came to the door to apologize to Nina, and asked her to go out for a drink. Here, Erica and Lily did not have any dialogue process. Even in the scene where Lily, Nina, and Erica appeared at the same time, Erica passed Ni. The dialogue between Na and Lily is the embodiment of the inner struggle, which is similar to 'fight club'.

And the day after Nina fantasizes about Lily's overnight stay at home, Erica looks indifferently at Nina being late and missing an important rehearsal, since Lily didn't go home with Nina, Erica just saw Nina go out It's just a daughter who came back late after drinking. If she was real, she would definitely not let Nina's career suffer a devastating blow. And Erica sitting on the sofa is more like Nina's self-guilt struggle.

When Nina visited Beth in the hospital for the second time, she saw Beth's self-destruction, and the flashes of her face were not only Beth's and her own, but also Erica's, which showed that in fact Ni Na has been struggling in her heart. Erica had to give up her dream of being a ballerina because she was pregnant with Nina. This dream was instilled in Nina's mind since she was a child, and Beth was like Erica's image of success after she was not pregnant, but In the end, it fell. Erica's image overlapped with Beth at this moment, which made Nina's struggle against Erica's personality control even more visible.

Here, Evan did not clearly answer the audience: Is Beth self-harm or Nina hurt? In fact, the main thing here is the similarity between Beth and Erica, and it is also Nina's rebellion against Ai. Rika's substantive action, I am more willing to believe that Beth was hurt by Nina, but she was quickly scared.

As for the end of the story, Nina once again saw Erica sitting in the audience when she achieved self-perfection. At a glance, there is no doubt that it is impossible for her to see any figure in the audience, she just sees the person or thing she wants to see according to her inner subconscious, and Erica who appears at this time is no longer her split personality ~www.mtlnovel.com~ is what Nina remembers as her mother. Then, Nina was perfect.

In short, Erica is not real, she is Nina's third invisible personality, just a phantom generated by a strict self-discipline within her. This reminds me of the child in "Deadly Identity", who has never been valued, who knows that the real source is him? Perhaps, Erica is the source of Nina's split personality.

As a master of psychology, Evan Bell has undoubtedly reached a new height in the research and application of psychology, and has achieved a perfect combination with the art of film, opening up a new field of psychology application, which is worthy of attention. "

Muller-Lance's writing this review is not a film review, but a purely psychological analysis, and it is locked on Nina's triple personality, and has no analysis of the film. But after this analysis appeared, there was an uproar among the audience in an instant. If it is really as Mueller-Lance said, then the depth of the entire movie of "Black Swan" will be deepened by another level.

Of course, there are also many people who disagree with this triple personality view, and have refuted Mueller-Lance's view. But this kind of situation is really normal for Evan Bell's works, and it's been a long time. After "Juno" and "In the Clouds" received unanimous praise, the controversy of Evan Bell's works Sex is back again, which is definitely a welcome phenomenon.
