I wrote in the short review: "I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I don't know why I am so determined to give five stars, but I understand that this is the film art I have been pursuing, and I know that this is the most authentic look of film art, and therefore It has the qualification to be included in the history of film and be preserved forever."
There is no real point to boast about it. But I used the most supreme words to express my love for it. Isn't human emotion, human life, human relationship, all these things often left behind after being washed away in the great river of time? So I gave it five stars and put it on my top ten list.
There are two rare conflicts in the film, both from grandma.
Every year, grandma invited the boy who was rescued by his eldest son who died bravely to be a guest at home. The atmosphere in the whole family did not forgive him. Grandpa even turned his back to him and didn't look at him at all, so he was very angry. Embarrassment, guilt, even pain. A lot of advice to grandma afterwards: "If we don't invite him to our house next year, I think he is very painful." Grandma knitted her clothes calmly and said in a disapproving tone:
"That's why we invited him, he can't forget, this is his fault, the death of Junpei (eldest son), if you can't hate someone, it's very painful to be a human being, so let him suffer once a year, like this Son of God should not punish me."
Grandma has evil in her heart, and it shows that she is not as peaceful and understanding as shown earlier in the film. But the foreshadowing in front of the film makes people have this impression. So the director doesn't want to deceive the audience through the movie, she is what she is. Without any artificial beautification or ugliness.
Moreover, this is the most complete human being. I still do not believe that there are completely good or completely evil people. Humans are highly complex animals, so everyone should not be arrogant and arrogant to test human nature. Although the years have not been long, it has taught me a rule: everyone has good in their hearts, and it is good to see it, and try not to touch the evil inside, just like Sanmao, live a pure and romantic life.
The second conflict came from my grandmother. Grandma bought a lot of pajamas for her second son. Many wives were sulking and puzzled, so they asked the reason. The wife turned her back to many and said: If she goes to buy pajamas , she should also buy it for Guo Si (Guo Si is the son of her and her ex-husband). Women really understand women very well, and this kind of scheming is intentional, not unintentional. People who have been in the world for more than half a century will always express her thoughts by going around, not to tear their faces, but also to show their feelings. It's really an advanced game of play.
This phenomenon is not uncommon. It is not that grandma is a special case, but it is common all over the world, and it is more or less the same.
All these good and bad, form a world - the world of people.
