[Music] Hello, welcome to "Sinmachi", how are you? I want to talk about the movie Kindness Kindness , but if you have seen the channel "Sinamachi" before, you probably know that when I talk about the movie, I generally don't spoil the story of that movie and I talk more about the world of the movie and the concepts that were in the mind of the filmmaker. That's why if you haven't seen the movie Kind of Kindness yet , the video can help you get to know the concept that this movie wants to express and then sit down and watch the movie with that point of view . You may disagree, but you will find a general worldview towards the movie. If you have seen the movie, there are some question marks for you. Again, in this video, maybe we can talk about those question marks. Let's go to the movie Kinds of Kindness by Yorgos Lanthimos [Music] Well, Mr. Lanthimos, who He is a Greek director and we in this channel have already reviewed all his films from the beginning to now, talked about his concepts and said his philosophies. If you haven't seen it or want to see the playlist of director Jurges Lanthimos's journey, there are all his films. In one of his recent interviews, he said about this movie, Kindness of Kindness, that when I read the play Caligula by Albert Camus, it occurred to me to make a similar movie, but what Mr. Lanthimus had in his mind was only the first episode that we see in this movie, so if the movie You didn't see it, and you probably don't know that this movie is an anthology and consists of three different episodes. Mr. Lanthimus says that I read Caligula's play and the idea of making a movie came to my mind. First, it should be a long episode and the whole movie should be the same, but again, in the writing process, the idea of an anthology and the next two episodes and the next two episodes were reached in order to enter the world of the film. In my opinion, the best window is this Caligula play, the play that Lanthimus faces. It leads to a question, it leads to an idea that makes this film, if you are bored, I want to talk about Caligula's play in detail, if you don't feel like it, skip ahead until we talk more about the film itself, but everything is hidden in this play [Music ] Caligula was a very young king under 20 years old in ancient Rome, a man who had everything in his youth and was in love with his sister. His sister died in an accident at the same young age, and after the death of his sister, Caligula reached the point of madness. He became a man full of philosophical questions. A family with such a power sees that it is a prisoner of life, it sees that with all this power, it is a prisoner of life, there is something called death and it cannot stand against it, no power like Caligula's madness, after he transforms, Caligula changes very important after his sister's death He goes crazy, he does strange things, he bleeds a lot, but don't forget one important thing is that Caligula doesn't turn into an evil monster. For a while, we are on the side of a dictator or a crazy king who has acquired evil morals and turned into a monster and is bleeding irrationally. But the important thing is that in the play Caligula, Caligula is not a demon, he is not evil, and he is expressing a philosophy for everything he does, and even in many places when you read the play, you might give him the right . This life is an absurd and perishable life, and with all the power it has, it is still a captive of life and the existing circumstances, so it decides to become a person who has absolute freedom, not relative freedom, and in a way, in the play, the character is a symbol of absolute freedom. However, what happens next in the story will talk about absolute freedom and whether absolute freedom is good or not. Let's think about whether we have something called absolute freedom in life . You can eat anything other than your friend's food or you can do anything you want except harming someone. Well, when we come to other than "but" or "but", we put a condition and anyway a place in front of freedom. We took the absolute, well, ethics also tells us the same thing that we are free in life to choose how to live, but we must be careful not to harm anyone, be careful not to break anyone's heart, be careful not to steal from anyone, a thousand of There are these uncles and guardians who have blocked the path of absolute freedom. Caligula is actually that character in dramas and plays who went to the bottom of freedom and this going to the bottom of freedom caused him to shed a lot of blood to destroy himself and his government just because This intermediary that He wants to see where a human being reaches in the most perfect conditions of freedom, and it seems that the main idea that came to Lanthimus' mind comes from the same question, what is the concept of man in today's societies and what is his relationship with freedom and choice? Caligula was talking about how we We can never experience something called freedom and unconditional choice in life and we must accept that we are always captive to the subject of life, regardless of how much we believe in this or not, go to the movie and see how Lanthimus turns this idea into three In the first story, we have a character whose whole life is a prisoner of the choices of an agreed person and he can never have a choice until he rebels and disobeys the orders. This is the beginning of freedom, but it doesn't take long for the character to understand that he doesn't know how to live freely, I am freedom at all. He is at work and his life is always involved in the choices of the force of agreement. He behaves like what was chosen for him before, and finally he gets results as if he was chosen for him, and in order to escape from freedom, he has to return to the arms of his superiors, but what Lanthimus added to the story This is where this controlled relationship between the superior and the main character is derived from kindness and kindness in the story of Caligula . In all three stories of this kindness and love, which plays the role of controller and captor, we see that the boss sends gifts, such as the racket of a famous tennis player who is known as a rebel and protester in America, and that's why his racket is broken, or the book of Anna Karenina, which is the story of a young woman's rebellion. It is against the society, in fact, in a way , he thinks that he is controlling this character with kindness . She believes herself and comes back, the man doesn't recognize her anymore, her legs have grown, which is a sign of her departure, but again, the love and kindness between these two causes the woman to destroy herself piece by piece, until she becomes a man by nature, and the woman she wanted dies. find and in the third part we are with a woman who is betrayed by her husband and social sects because of sexual relations, while her whole life she is looking for a dream that she saw two twin sisters who saved her from drowning in her dream and can perform miracles. Bringing the dead back to life , just as he seeks to discover his own dream, society and his family attack him through sex. Interestingly, in Lanthimus' opinion, the three main elements that seek to control humans in the name of kindness are the power of love and sex, and a strange personality. The movie RMF, which dies in the first episode and comes back to life in the third episode, is a symbol of personal freedom when you don't think about pleasing others and don't try to be accepted in any group . She sacrifices her life, society, family, friends have conditions for us to be accepted in them, and in the third episode we see a character who is lost and contrary to the sexual abuse of her being a woman, she behaves like a man, wears a man's clothes, and a man's car, she can follow her dreams. Armf revives himself and in the final scene of the happy dance in the first episode, we are on the side of a man who is like a slave against a consenter and somewhere he comes to the conclusion that he will rebel against the existing modern conditions that exist. In the second episode, we are on the side of a woman who rebelled against the existing conditions. Well, marriage is a long-term and lifelong covenant, and the reality of humans is that they change over time, especially in life . Modern and modern man, despite the large amount of information, watching over people's lives, the opening of our thoughts, we are constantly changing over time, we think differently, we like to live differently, and when you are in a long-term contract like marriage, which is for years. Be with someone else, well, it's natural, especially in modern life that you become a different person after a few years, and this must be accepted. In this long- term marriage, people change, their thoughts change, and maybe after a few years, they don't change at all. listen to another person and this acceptance must exist in modern life. In the second episode, we are on the side of such a concept, and in the third episode, this rebellion becomes more personal, it becomes more individual, a person is rebelling against his own individuality and wants to change. A person seems to want to revolt against the most individual characteristics of his personality, his sex, if we come to see the three together, in the first episode, there is an uprising against a working society or a society, in the second episode, an uprising against a family. Two people is happening and in the third episode there is an outburst against a series of individual and personal characteristics and it is also falling apart . music]
