Actually, I knew the outline of the story before I watched it: a family forced by life, a bicycle that brings hope to the whole family, the hateful thief stole the bicycle from the man, and stole the hope of the family, man Finally had to be a bike thief too. So, before I read it, I knew that this was a tragic little story of a low-level character, so small that you didn't know it at all.
1 Realism and Expressionism
It is said that the two father and son in the play are extras, but I have been immersed in their acting skills when I watched it, or more precisely, I empathized with them very well. Every one of them was anxious and helpless. , helplessness, and disappointment all affect me, drive me, they feel heartache, and so do I.
I want to say that the director Vittorio de Sica (the name is very long, from Baidu) is very good in casting. Since it is realism, then the reality should be thorough. Even the actors are real and alive. , people living at the bottom of society. Of course, it is said that the long shots of documentaries are also used. Although I have seen "Understanding the Movie", I still can't see what the shots are, but I understand the general meaning. . This is really realism, isn't it? Without post-production and processing, what I shoot is real life.
In the same sentence, no matter how realistic the film is, it is inseparable from expressionism, otherwise it will be less polished. Although the naked body is beautiful, it is also beautiful to wear clothes or put some camouflage on the body, isn't it? The obvious expressionism in the play should have two points - bicycles and snow-white sheets. Bicycles and snow-white sheets are symbols of dreams and hopes, and bicycles speak for themselves. Actually, what I want to talk about is the sheets. The actor Richie watched the man put his sheets on a high shelf when he was buying a bicycle. There are many white sheets there. They are poor like Richie. Our dreams and hopes, aren't they? Dreams and hopes are so pure, they lie there quietly, waiting for people to realize it. Every dream is lovely and pure.
2 A woman is always willing to pay for her man
Seeing that Richie's wife donated her dowry to buy a bicycle for Richie, I thought of A Can, the wife of the paper house in "Skynet Island in the Heart" - also a woman who can contribute dowry for her husband. Women are emotional creatures who can do anything for the ones they love. I thought that I had let it go like this at the beginning, and it didn't matter if I failed the exam for so-and-so. It's ridiculous to think about it, hormones and emotions are just at work.
3 Thieves are really one of the worst people in the world.
Like Ritchie told the police, you have no idea what that bike means to me. Does everyone who steals someone else's thing think about what that thing means to others? What's worse, I found that thieves seem to prefer stealing from the poor - the rich are strong to them, and they prefer and dare to bully the weak. So it makes them even more hateful. Money is more important to the poor. Not just money, but also hopes and dreams for the future. Therefore, it is really cruel for thieves to steal other people's hopes and dreams.
4 Poverty makes people sinful
Do you know how the world turns good people into bad people? Because the world abandoned him. We can all see that Ritchie is a good guy, but society doesn't sympathize with good guys - he's never going to get his bike back anyway. So, you see, when a person falls into poverty, when a person cannot get out of the predicament, when God has no time to take care of him, he can only turn to Satan. Therefore, if we want to make society harmonious and stable, we must make the poor happy. Now that you understand the big truth of governing a country? . .
5 I want to talk about that little boy
Richie's son, sweet little boy, fragile little boy, just a child's little boy. He doesn't have a father who can earn 1 million a month, but he is a happy little boy. He doesn't know how hard life is. He cried when Dad beat him, he was angry, he was hurt, and told me again, never put your anger on the child! In the end, it was he who saved Dad, and the owner said Richie wanted to set a good example for his son. Seeing this, I wanted to be happy for the father and son, but I couldn't be happy, a feeling that I couldn't tell.
In short, this is another little man's little story, you won't know, you won't see it, and no newspaper will take it as news, only careful artists will notice it, show it, discover the little man's The beauty and value of the story.
