You are the young Turkish youth who "fighted" everything for three hours!

This movie, which was criticized as a talkative movie, lasted for 3 hours, watching Sinan, a young man in a small Turkish town, faintly arguing about everything. I sighed to myself that if he played Douyin, he would at least be a little happier and not be a sad young man.

What is Sinan doing in 3 hours? Fighting fate, fighting faith, fighting literature, fighting marriage, fighting love... In the end, he worked so hard to publish a book, but he couldn't sell one. Only then did he realize that his father, who had always been secretive, was his only reader. In front of the wooden house, facing a well, a reconciliation was reached.

about love

From start to finish, Sinan had "emotionless killer" written all over his face. He despised his mother's marriage and said he didn't like anyone. But he was angry and angry, and he didn't get married because he was a poor peasant. His attitude towards love is like a deformed wild pear. His relationship with the girl Hatijie is also like a deformed wild pear, with no way out and no way out. The two could only hide under the tree. The 7-minute dialogue, from the surprise of the encounter, to the conflict, calmed down with a cigarette, and finally ended with a farewell kiss.

The girl laughed and cried, cried and laughed, and finally was relieved, or perhaps the sadness was greater than the death of her heart. The girl said goodbye to her true heart, to the idyllic town, to the "people who stay here to rot" as sinan said, and finally married a jeweler and fled here.

about literature

Sinan met the writer Suleiman in the bookstore. In the first 5 minutes, he talked about the dilemma that the writer encountered when writing his autobiography. In the second five minutes, he discussed the meaning of writing. In the third five minutes, Sulei, who has been secretly attacked by sinan Man finally couldn't bear it any longer, and roared sinan on the bridge to leave.

A professional writer, a novice writer who sees that the mountain is not a mountain, is unavoidable. Putting this sentence on people of different levels in all walks of life seems to be the same. It's hard to say which is better if you're mature or inexperienced.

About value

The conversation with the owner of the stone field also lasted 7 minutes. 1 minute of compliment, 4 minutes of confrontation, 2 minutes of stance.

The paradox is whether it is worth investing in this book. Because sinan's hometown is a village near the port of Canakkale, the village has become a tourist attraction due to its proximity to the battlefield of the Gallipoli battle of the First World War and the ancient city of Troy. The businessman's position is simple and straightforward, I don't care about the old man in your book, his life. There are warriors worthy of admiration in the world, as well as Troy with a historical flavor. If your book can add points to local tourism, I am interested; if not, then sorry. In the last few minutes, the businessman speaks out the truth in favor of literature (for better government support).

The businessman's remarks are sharp, but he also has certain supporters. "The less you lose, the less responsibility you have, and the easier you are to be happy." , "University is useless because this is Turkey!"

About Faith

The dialogue between Sinan and the priest about faith and the Qur'an seems more appropriate in literature.

Three people, conservatives, newcomers, and skeptics. Regarding the mutual confrontation of "no gods / gods", it took more than 10 minutes. "Crime rates in atheistic countries are low, but suicide rates are high. People don't commit crimes, but they're not happy."

However, the last question - if you were given a choice, would you like to live in a world with God or a world without God? The skeptic's answer is that there is a God.

about marriage

When everyone else is talking about money and what they have, there is such a person who is talking to you about the smell of soil, the smell of lamb and the color of fields... Sinan's mother recalled that when she was 16 years old, maybe she was ignorant and made the wrong choice. Married to a gambler. Now the whole family is heavily in debt, and the elderly sinan's mother is still working as a nanny. There is no money to pay for the power outage at home, and the ingredients in the refrigerator are stored in the neighbor's house...

However, if the time is reversed, "I will still make the same choice." Marriage is probably a new choice, and it will still choose this person without hesitation.

In the last ten minutes or so, the three dialogues between my father and sinan were considered the "iron" of the whole film. All the previous folds were roughly ironed, and they were still warm.

About the three generations of descendants and the wild pear tree——

sinan: "You know, sometimes, what I see on you, me, and even grandpa reminds me of wild pear trees. We are all unsuited to the environment and lonely."

Father: " Everyone has their own temperament. The key is to accept and like it. The fruit of wild pears is as deformed as you said, but one day I ate it for breakfast and it was very delicious."

About the well water that has not been dug up to now——

Sinan asked his father, "So you admit defeat?"

"If I'm proven right, that's great, but too bad, I'm not right, but it doesn't matter , retreating in time is also a victory . That's my consolation."

Why does a father who looks like Loser dig a well? Because we want to make this piece full of greenery. The father's well and the son's book publishing plan seem to be small beliefs that support the continuation of ordinary life.

About what to do in the future -

Sinan asked his father passively: "I don't care what you want me to do, be a teacher who wastes my life like you or any profession."

The father replied: " Everyone has their own expectations, if you like what you do, you can survive anywhere. Whose dreams come true like that? People should swing in time. Good and bad memories should be merged .

Watching the whole film with patience, I quickly retracted my initial emotion. I am glad that sinan does not have a smartphone to swipe Douyin Weibo. I am glad that he has experienced sadness, because sadness is a necessary stage for a wild pear to go from young to mature. As Sinan said of one of the few chicken soups: "Rupture and separation lies in waiting for all that is good."

The Wild Pear Tree quotes

  • Sinan Karasu: Nobody's more dependable than a person who's alone with his conscience and free will. Because he builds this responsibility, he doesn't receive it. So he must undertake all the consequences of his acts.

    Imam Veysel: Who says free will is free? Even if it was, how could you trust it?

    Sinan Karasu: It's not for everyone. Isn't that why people without the courage choose servitude over existence?

    Imam Veysel: All rivers are born as furious waterfalls but grow calm on their way to the sea. But your raging rivers drag along lots of pebbles and sticks, too.

    Sinan Karasu: Just like strong characters drag underdogs and losers with them?

  • Imam Nazmi: Someone wrote that if the truth was proven to be outside Islam, he'd rather choose Islam than the truth.

    Sinan Karasu: Which proves the famous argument that faith is wanting not to know the truth.
