The stone is hard, but the egg is life, Reivew on Central Station

It is also an impure road film with a family search trip. Compared with the lightness and personal insignificance of "Kiujiro's Summer", "Central Station" is more like Brazil, which is a land of misery and wants to emphasize the crowd. relation. The advancement and development of the story is always carried out against the background of the crowd. The portrayal of the crowd and the amplification of the role of the crowd give the film an environmental mission. Through poverty, through faith, through Dora's transformation from being tactful to being warm and cherishing. Usually, films with a sense of environmental mission are prone to abuse the audience with fatalism and disaster storms all over the mountains and plains, and it is easy to artificially strengthen the audience's psychological acceptance. Fortunately, the director of this film knows the truth of "even if it is an expression, don't put it all in one bag, it's too heavy and too heavy", and evenly scatter suffering, mental disorders, communication interests, and good hopes. On the pie of a "family search trip", there is a smooth transition between contradictions and transformations. Hardship is no longer hardship itself. The power of inspiration itself lies in getting out of the negative impact of hardship. Cui Jianbu also sings: Reality is a stone, and spirit is like an egg. Stones are hard, but eggs are life. The piano soundtrack of the movie is very good, especially the part where Dora writes letters for people and people reverently read their hearts out. The personal light in the crowd and the emotional guidance brought by the music are very beautiful. The little boy's eyes can act, especially the eyes, which are very similar to the little boy in "White Ribbon". Maybe every emotional look is a partial projection of reality on inner stubbornness and endurance. I've been restless lately, watching a movie like this and accepting the warmth it can give me.
