This article is based on plot analysis, contains a lot of spoilers, please watch the movie first! !
I only see social cues of calm in this film.
Let me make a map of myself, the heroine's firmness at the beginning, the confrontation with the banker, the contest with the rich class, and an essential transaction of a family extracted from the poor sample. This is the line of the class represented by the heroine and the people at different levels, and it is also a major revelation of the film. So the question is what is the position of the heroine?
Is she just a woman who is obsessed with opening a bookstore in an old house? Of course, in my eyes, I can't give such a superficial answer, because she is not such a simple role setting. She believes that she represents a class representative of a new idea and new culture movement. She is full of ideas and is different from other women who are A woman trapped in a cumbersome life without knowing it. She has ambitions, even if you just look at the story and show that it's just to open a bookstore? No, pay attention to why opening a bookstore in an old house in a specific place has such a different meaning. Because this is a cultural window that is opened to the public in a closed-minded place (specially explained at the beginning of the video)! A square where the exchange of ideas converges and diverges! A place that is really still "people's ownership"...
This article reveals that there are many clues about the extraordinary significance of the heroine's opening of the bookstore, mainly through the conversation between the enemy and the enemy.
She Fang, and then we talked about the only comrade-in-arms with her steadfast united front in the film, her number one customer Mr., this gentleman may have been divorced early in the same emotional situation as her, but the most important connection and resonance It was they who chose the same direction and partner for the rest of their lives, and that was books. When they met for the first time, there was a sentence from the gentleman who explained the bookstore of the heroine in one sentence: [Understanding will make the mind lazy. 】
That's why she recommended him a copy of 451 degrees Fahrenheit, and later brought 250 copies of Lolita to the bookstore to recommend and sell.
The enemy, as well as the cunning spy who wandered between the two sides in the film You remembered, tried to test the heroine's intentions but unintentionally spoke out, the heroine calmly and naturally counterattacked him: [Where there are books, you will never be lonely]. This sentence was naturally incomprehensible to him who was in the wine shop. Of course, people who don't like the heroine who loves to read also think that this is just a tough word?
However, the person who plays the spy is what we call opportunists, who are good for everything and belong to the villain representative of the cultural class.
Comparing him is the heroine's comrade-in-arms. He and the rich woman are in the same class but have different directions, like "left and right wings". But he suddenly fell after the meeting with the opponent's biggest behind-the-scenes boss. This is also the pillar of the heroine's spirit and hope, and it is a dramatic change in the plot. The Lord said that he had visited the rich woman before he left. It seems that he was also used by his wife, but he was very interesting talking about the gentleman. He recalled that the dead female lead customer was an Air Force, and there are special settings of the Air Force in many films, including the recent Wuwen Xidong film. Certainly, this role is given to him as a veteran of the Air Force, which is to show that he has paid for the defense of the country and has been educated by good ideas! (Actually, the Air Force is an important spiritual symbol in many movies, not just a character label)
Then another line, the heroine's conversation with the little girl from a poor family, with her mother. It is not difficult to find that the girl is the embodiment of the characters in the film. She hates the unbelief of speculators and the stench of selfishness. But she has also been reminding and sighing that the heroine is too kind. She said, you're a good man, but I'm going to be a speculator. This is where the smart growth of the next generation she represents.
And, of course, that Chinese tray. . (meaning profound)
The little girl was forced to obey the arrangement due to the sudden legal helplessness, but her mother revealed a terrible thing about being a poor person, that is, she can only care about the immediate interests. Of course, this is also helpless. There will be no peace in the four words. The benefit she got is that her daughter still has a special job, but she also understands that her daughter gets more than just salary from the heroine, and she is sympathetic to the heroine. An almost blatant inquiry, an aggressive plea. This is a smart mother and daughter. (It is not difficult for the girl to find in the conversation she reported with the heroine before that she compared her two extreme sisters, one was helping the family to take care of the children, the other was just talking about love. This was also the generation of young girls at that time. The mapping of , only she said the words of unsightly ambition)
Nearly an hour after the film, the foreshadowing was like a super long fuse that ignited an explosive hidden somewhere, and the war without the smell of gunpowder was over. The moment the heroine signed the signature, everything was settled.
Faces appeared one after another. It turned out that they were all the winners of this war. The heroine looked around at the castle for which she fought and fought for it. She left in a quiet boat, and the first moment was never high. Looking back, she looked at the vagueness ahead, as if she receded from the torrent of history and turned into an ark in the vast ocean.
This battle can only be defeated and ended hastily? I am amazed at how colorful the author's arrangement of characters and use of the plot is. The heroine has already lit a candle! A flame full of hope and strength! Yes, when she receded into the sea of history, the land was set on fire, and there was a little green smoke! !
If this film is combined with the real environment we live in, it is actually very resonant and helpless, but it also reminds me a lot of whether the law is only man-made, not the law of nature. Is it as meaningful as we would like it to be? Seriously terrified! !
Due to the rough finalization of this article, there is no detailed analysis, and for some reasons it cannot be written clearly~ You can only supplement it in your own mind. . .
