Starting from the fiery 1966, the era when the European continent used Mao as its idol, it has passed through one period after another that is very important to Europe, and then put the period lightly on 2003, an ordinary The grief and sigh that a man should endure in his life, as well as the joy and happiness he can get, are all planted in it. It is not like "Once Upon a Time in America", which uses epic writing to refract such a complex human nature around a small character, and plays a play that leaves the audience with mixed feelings and only sighs; it is not like "The Godfather", telling you 'Family' ' means to tell you how to be a man (I thought "Once Upon a Time in America" and "The Godfather" just stated what a man should know from opposite sides), and it is not as big as these two films. , but only honestly stated the life of an ordinary person, but it is precisely because it gave up the big picture that makes the seemingly lackluster decades of an ordinary person extraordinarily vivid and makes every scene of the film exciting. And at the end of the film, the audience can even recognize that an ordinary person has their own splendid life -
even in that fashionable appearance, it is difficult to conceal its aging and decayed Italy. It may not have reached the situation described by Mu Xin in Greece - "withered flowers are more ugly than withered leaves", but ancient Greece has fallen, and the withering of ancient Rome will be far behind - this is no longer It was the Roman Empire in the days of Caesar and Octavian, no longer the seed of the Renaissance; it was what the old projectionist called a cursed place (the old projectionist in "Paradise" was talking about leaving Sicily, but expanding It is not impossible to understand it as Italy); just like the protagonist in "City of Beauty", a lonely and desolate heart under the flashy and bright appearance; it is also the place where Nicholas teacher said in the film will eventually perish, he Exhort Nikolay to leave this place. Despite being such a country, Nicola's choice was not to leave, but to end the journey decisively and return home when the floods hit Florence.
In this country, the weak system gave birth to Nikolai's younger brother and wife, two men who have been engaged in political struggle all their lives, one integrated into the system through a radical attitude, praying that through this radical attitude, this ugly The system has changed; one has invested in the left-wing movement, and has intensified in the future, joining terrorist groups. Later, of the two people, one took his own life on New Year's Eve, and he jumped off the balcony to end his short and dazzling life, just like the dazzling fireworks outside the balcony; the other, went to prison.
But after all, the movie gave the audience another possibility - Nikolai, he is simply a master of Eastern philosophy, and his whole life has been explained: gentleness is the greatest strength, with sympathy and compassion to bear his own, share The suffering of others, the gentle acceptance of joy and happiness, the most successful example guided by his philosophy is to heal the mentally ill Zuozhen through his own gentle compassion, and there are countless other examples, he can't help it. Reminds me of Mahatma Gandhi ("Gandhi Biography" is also an excellent film, vividly recreating the legendary life of one of the two most maddened old men in history, the other old man named Don Quixote) with a This kind of gentle way of fighting, this once again shows that gentleness and compassion are the softest and greatest part of human nature. It is not unique to saints, but also available to every ordinary person. I say these are not in Teacher Dan's heart. chicken soup.
The film begins with Nikolai and his partner's journey to Norway, and ends with Nikolai's son re-travelling the Norwegian road. In the end, the son and his partner set off from Norway to the North Pole, which his father had not reached, and he wrote: You always say that everything is beautiful, and I think it is absolutely right, everything is really beautiful. This is a kind of inheritance. Finally, someone has inherited his mantle and mantle, and his son has gone further. This is the step by step growth of human nature. Therefore, I say that this article is not the bowl of chicken soup for the soul of Teacher Yu Dan, but It is another bowl. Only those who have been treated with tenderness know how to treat people with tenderness. This is the key part of the spread of human beings.
Films are almost (probably all) shot with standard lenses, with the closest possible field of view to the human eye, a concept reminiscent of the Neorealist movement that sprang up in Italy decades ago. Most of the shots in the movie are shot from a head-to-head angle, which clearly points out the director's position, which is Nikolai's position, sympathy, gentleness, neither condescending nor servile, no power and psychological asymmetry, which also implies The focus of the director's attention is not completely political, but more inclined to the individual.
The segmental analysis can only be obtained after multiple viewings, so I will not write it here. Because I really can't bear to watch this movie for the second time in a short period of time. This kind of movie is not for interpretation and interpretation, but for feeling. Metaphor interpretation, it is better to keep it in mind silently. Moreover, after being immersed in the movie for six hours, after entering the lives of others, there are more important things to do. After all, the movie is over and they have walked out of their lives, and their other life has just begun.
