Tragedy is obviously a little numb to me, who has begun to adjust to the age of confusion. As recently as 201X, I would cry for "a story sadder than sadness". At that time, as a man in his thirties, I was still a relatively emotional minority. Now, it’s not just with age or other factors, maybe the overdue rationality has made me gradually dull... This giant tear gas canister from seven years ago has several tears from the beginning to the end. eye socket.
No tears, it does not mean that I do not particularly appreciate this work, on the contrary it touched the most sensitive area of my heart! A mentally handicapped man lives with his daughter. From the beginning of the story, the girl has no mother. I think the biggest and most logical possibility is that the woman, because of her mentally handicapped husband, now has a more drag on her. Child, the weakness of human nature prompted her to choose to abandon! But although the father and daughter live in poverty, the disabled father still insists on working hard to raise his young, lovely and sensible daughter.
In order to give his daughter a beautiful girl's schoolbag, his father was involved in a falsely convicted rape and murder case, and was imprisoned unjustly; and the deceased's father was the local police chief. …
The film begins with the daughter, who has grown up and has become a lawyer, ready to overturn the case for her father and clear her grievances. She called the prison section chief "Dad". It was only later that he learned that the section chief had also experienced the pain of losing his son, and after learning about what happened to his mentally handicapped father, he wanted to try his best to help him overturn the case, but he was lack of energy and ultimately failed. So he adopted the daughter of a mentally handicapped father.
The whole movie starts with the section chief and inmates hating the mentally handicapped father, and then after learning the truth, they try their best to help. Every character is vivid and fleshy. Perhaps the light comedy element of the film alleviates the depressing and cruel plot. If there is no such moderate humor, maybe this work is really a super tragedy that can cause some people's psychological disorders......
In our daily life, we often use discriminatory words such as "mental retardation" and "neuropathy" to ridicule or insult some vulnerable groups with various physical disabilities. This may balance and satisfy the subconscious superiority of being a normal person. But we can see from the film that this "mentally retarded father" has done so many things that we, as normal and intact people, can't do or dare not do! Although he is mentally retarded and mentally handicapped, he is respectful and smiling to everyone. He was able to stand up to save him after beating him when the people around him didn't understand the truth. It wasn't because he didn't care about the past, but because he didn't understand at all, his heart was pure! He didn't have the careful thinking and hesitation of taking into account the consequences of a normal perfect person. He only knew that he was going to do that at the time, and that was the right thing to do! This is the "mental retardation" that we discriminate and ridicule in our daily life.
From beginning to end, we saw the whole process of the protagonist's transformation from a "beast" to a good person in the eyes of those around him. When everyone understands the truth, they strive to dedicate their only modest efforts to help them. The police chief lost his mind because of the pain of losing his daughter, and sent an innocent and good man with physical defects to the execution ground, and he himself completely sold his soul from the moment he used his power to win! Fortunately, the daughter, who eventually grew up, worked hard to study and defended her father successfully, so that the protagonist's spirit in heaven was restored to innocence and could rest in peace.
After watching it, I have mixed feelings, there are so many places for me to ponder about this movie! There is so much I want to say, but when it comes to writing, I hesitate to say anything. Life has come to more than 40 years, and my eyes on many things have become calm and calm, and I have lost the blood and passion that I once had, but I am still moved by this "Gift from Room 7"! Maybe that's the beauty of the work.
Liu Chenglong's interpretation of the male protagonist Li Longjiu is really splendid. When he speaks, his lips are drawn, his eyes are focused, and his careful body shape is vividly interpreted by him! Then there was Ge Suyuan, who played Li Yisheng in her childhood. She was only 6 years old at the time, but she was able to portray this weather-beaten little girl Yisheng so wonderfully. This little actor must be a potential stock in the future of Korean film and television! The actor Park Shin Hye, who plays the adult Lee Ye Seung, doesn't have many bright spots because of the character setting, but I think the performance is stable. At the end of the film, Ye Seung successfully reversed the case for his father and saw the relieved and gratifying smile of his childhood in the snow and his father sitting in a hot air balloon , is really a kind of pure and nurturing beauty! Zheng Zhenrong's prison chief is my favorite character in this film. From the beginning, he hated the child rape and murderer and beat Li Longjiu (I think his son was also killed because of a similar experience), and then he tried his best to help Li Longjiu to overturn the case and finally adopted him. Li Yisheng made me see the whole process of a man who was ruthless and jealous of evil and slowly regained his father's love and warmth. There are also Korean film's golden green leaf Wu Dal-soo (at the same time to express the highest respect and deepest condolences to Hong Kong performing artist Ng Meng-da), Zheng Manzhi, etc. have also built an indispensable foundation for the success of the film. Finally (jokingly): The director's Chinese translation name is Li Huanqing, is he Jia Ling's Korean uncle? ??
Thank you for the late gift of Room 7 today, 7 years later. Thank you for letting me see this excellent work of family love more than a month before Wang Qining was born, which made me rethink and plan for the future for my soon-to-be-born child. How to raise him to grow up! ?????
PS: There are many plot settings that do not conform to realistic logic in the film, which cannot be a reason to prevent it from becoming a classic masterpiece that has been famous in film history. The source of art is life is higher than life. As a fictional family film, adding some exaggerated plot settings I personally think it is purely artistic processing, not a bug. So the boring people who are more serious about this point, please shut up!
Mr. Wu Mengda has been going well all the way. Thank you for the excellent works you have devoted your whole life to dedicating to us. Our Lord Our Lady is with you, Aimen! ???????
