The film shows the hardships of social life in The Republic of Italy, satirizes the greed of human nature, and raises a very intriguing question, that is, the relationship between the tension and monotony of industrial society and the ruin of youth and innocence. The whole film focuses on the detailed description of daily life, which restores the ordinary life of a small employee and the psychological reality of Il posto. The director did not put too much of his own evaluation of life into the film, he just described such an ordinary story with a "life flow" method, and the documentary style was unpretentious
.
After I quit my job and stopped to look at the world around me, I realized that there are actually many pictures worth stopping and watching. I accidentally saw this black and white film 50 years ago, director Olmi's debut, the 93-minute film describes The Republic of Italy's rural youth's job hunting in the city, a lot of details, restore the social life The life and Il posto of the lower clerk, and his true state of mind
.
After watching the film, I have a great resonance, isn't this boy who I am now! Simple but fearful eyes, kind and shy face, the test of finding Il posto, having a good time with job-seeking girls, the jerky experience of participating in the staff club, the seating arrangement in the office. I found that I had Substituting myself in, I became that boy. Not to mention all kinds of misfortunes of Il posto, in fact, when I saw the young man, I was thinking, how many employees like him in the world, working hard in the city, working hard and diligently for a stable and meager Il posto, The original ideals gradually vanished, only to become rigid, numb, and ignorant under the mechanical, dogmatic, rigid, and uninteresting Il posto of industrial society. I have heard a long time ago that society is a melting pot. If you want to be a social person, you must hone in this melting pot. Many young people have invested in this melting pot, as well as their own dreams and life. In the end, in order to live a successful life in the eyes of others, they become square and round in the melting pot, abide by the rules, become mature, and meet the requirements of society
.
And many people like me, who yearn for freedom, unfettered, and life, are considered irresponsible and not mature social people. What a sad thing this is. The rules of the city and the city give birth to many ruleists. Those managers and supervisors become the leaders of small teams with their own efforts, and they use the same rigid and serious rules to restrain the people below. That's it, the rules are continued, only Only those who work hard Il posto can be recognized. Human nature should not be like this, it should be free, equal and happy, this is deeply imprinted in my heart, I think that the socialization of people will make the individuality lose, which is why we seem to be It is like a flowing commodity on the product assembly line, trying to struggle but unable to break free
.
Seeing the friends here, have you ever given up your personal life for the company? The freedom we want in our hearts is wasted and occupied, and we often become timid when faced with that salary. This is very interesting and very helpless. The film restores the job search and entry process of such a small employee for us. This is also an important period for him to enter the society. How many people have found their own shadow in him, and how many people have something to say in their hearts? How many people are still working hard while talking about hard work? In this way, we live truthfully and transparently, and live hard for a certain hope in the future
.
In fact, we are not sad, we just think so, there is still a lot of happiness in Il posto, but thinking this way can't hide the fact that our personality is betrayed by Il posto, betrayed so cleverly that many times We didn't even notice it.
Maybe this can explain the reason why I quit my job every time. The liberal elements in me are so strong that when someone encounters it with bad intentions, he will revolt. If you don't agree to it, you can't do it, hehe, the body Freedom has to continue to demand that those who are bound will be burned in this melting pot, who knows
