The days without movies are actually only 5 or 6 days, but like Li Xianji, I got a bad time pass, and I feel that the reality is so lengthy. If I hadn’t seen that awesome monologue in a magazine, I would have almost missed "25 Hours". Spike Lee, a senior New Yorker like Woody Allen, a director I only heard of before, but I have been intrigued by "Inside Man" before, the low-key movement of the camera contains indescribable power , The well-established narrative has breaking points all the time, and New York in his eyes is like when you go to a place to play, eat special features, look at the scenery, take photos, and when you come back, show your relatives and friends about the city and small town you have been to. Towns, villages, but these are just your imaginations, because you don't belong there. In the 25th hour of New York in the post-9/11 era, the two pillars of light standing in the ruins of the twin towers towered into the sky, like two tombstones in the city. The faint blue light is the keynote of this movie. But it is full of vigor, just like the dying dog rescued by MONTY in the title sequence. It can live tenaciously with a glimmer of hope. This is also a true portrayal of all the out-of-towners who went to New York. That year, a Beijinger named Wang Qiming went to New York. He shouted "Fuck your grandma" in pure Beijing dialect on the street. Fortunately, the accumulated anger for many years was temporarily vented. Sadly, no one He stopped and looked sideways at him. Asians, Japanese and Koreans, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, Italians, Russians, and Middle Easterners, like Beijing's migrant workers, are either the beneficiaries of "permanent residency" or the cannon fodder for the development of big cities. The only thing that can be done is to leave their footprints and bitterness in the city. MONTY is from Ireland. There are two young people and one is a high school teacher. The other is a proud man on Wall Street, who lives in a high-end apartment but cannot bear the burden of friendship, and MONTY chooses to sell drugs, immersed in the wealth and inflated status brought by greed, all this sounds like a soap opera, but Spike is able to. Turning corruption into magic, coupled with Edward Norton's acting skills, a common story of friendship and family, love and betrayal is also told loudly. People, those smiling faces, the barking of Doyle (MONTY's dog), is like a faint coming of condolences, telling you: you have done your best, so be it~~ save the last hour to yourself, maybe reincarnated Before you reincarnate, you will think about what you are here for.
The film is a monologue of MONTY's father. What the director gave us was a one-time dream. The cruel thing was that he left the last scene with a bruised face and the face of Edward Norton, who went to prison. It made me sad. "Life is so short, it's like nothing has ever happened", what we are anxiously looking forward to, is it what we want, is it only regret left for us in the end, regret that we didn't look at the stars in the sky before our vision blurred, regret When my parents were still alive, I didn't make time to chat with them. I regret that I didn't send you a pure smile to him and her who passed by. I still choose to forget. Believe me, in the 25th hour, we are busy enough. ～～～
