Remember that after watching the film, you can't blame the female mayor for being ruthless, because she's not ruthless, just thoughtful and helpless. What's more, if you are in her position, ask yourself how much more you can do than she is. The film impresses me most is that the female mayor braved the snow to find a developer to borrow a building to resettle the residents of the dilapidated building, but she found that it was actually related to the interests of her lover. And the big man's bald ridicule is inexcusable. Here I have to admire the screenwriter who designed the plot. In the beginning of the bald speech, I found that a small clerk became the mayor in addition to his own efforts. How could there be no external intervention? It really is a deep foreshadowing.
And, of course, the old plumber's leader, the old engineer who has been sabotaging since the incident. If you pay attention to one detail, when the plumber said it was a building more than 40 years ago, the old man cut off "38 years". It's not that the old engineer doesn't understand this dangerous building, nor does he care about so many lives, nor is he deliberately ignoring the hidden dangers, but as him, he can only do this in his position, otherwise he can't keep his position, and things must be It won't get better, just like the ending of the movie. I carefully analyzed this character, and finally found that this old man is still very good. The subordinates crossed themselves to make small reports with the leader, and made things out of control, so that they finally turned themselves into a scapegoat, but they still protected the plumber at the end. This is also a rare warm-hearted plot in the film.
The following is a sad reminder of the chief of the fire department, a man who is still working hard, he doesn't talk much, he rushed to the front when something happened, and he was blamed for no reason when something happened, pitiful. And the hospital director, who was completely corrupted, should be the medical minister. A typical slick character, he should also be an expert who pretends to be stupid, but he is the most competent official, and he will make a few jokes to liven up the atmosphere. The police chief who was cold and enthusiastic but gave up at a critical moment, when he received a phone call while drinking at a banquet, he looked back at the close-up of his old colleague, which really portrayed this horny character penetrating.
Looking at the plumber's own family, his father is an old worker with pneumoconiosis, and his voice is hoarse, but he maintains the benches in the yard downstairs for decades. Never stealing chickens and dogs like the neighbors around him, and working conscientiously to this age. Although the mother is fat and bloated, she is full of concern for the family. Based on the experience of a low-level citizen, he advises his son who is too upright under the influence of his father to look at his immediate interests and not have too high expectations. "It's time to buy the car and garage of an alcoholic neighbor, instead of spending money on school." Unfortunately, young people are always full of hope, until the last leader died tragically and ran away on his own, and his father had to borrow a car. I know if I can understand the heart of the little citizen, my mother. The plumber's wife is undoubtedly a sensible person, seeing through this helpless society, but can't stop her husband. When she finally left home, the wife finally couldn't help complaining about the exit, but accidentally touched the bottom line of the plumber. "We live like pigs and die like pigs because we don't care at all." Yes, if you are not mine, how can I really care about you? Zhang Ailing said that she sympathizes because she understands. Then on the other hand, if there is no understanding, how can there be sympathy? I once heard a theory that the butt decides the head. I used to think that the person who said this sentence must be a fool, but now I understand how naive I am if I don't understand this sentence.
When the plumber abandoned his wife and young son, left his seductive parents, and embarked on the road of salvation, I really admired the director. I remember reading the Buddhist scriptures, I read a story, an old monk took his apprentice on a long trip, and saw people in a place always killing each other. The apprentice puzzled and asked the master why he didn't save the world, but the old monk scratched his head and said, does anyone need to be saved? Yes, no one can save those who do not save themselves, and even a sage has no such power. Of course, it's too extreme to say that, but it's true. Just imagine if the residents in this building are a group of motivated, mutual help, friendly and kind people, then under the leadership of the plumber, they can hear the cause and result of the incident. The question is what the outcome will be. It's a pity it's impossible, as long as the building doesn't collapse immediately, then what should be done. Like the old alcoholic who got up and pissed said, I don't care about the plumbing in this building, I only take a shower once a week. Even if this building is going to collapse now, I won't live long anyway, I don't care.
The plumber is a hero, but he is destined to be lonely and incomprehensible, because heroes are easy to come by, but opportunities are hard to find. After reading a lot of history, I can truly understand that in the end, it is not the hero who achieves the great cause, but the great cause that makes the hero. This also has something to do with my partiality to Taoism. Going with the trend is as easy as raising your hand, and acting against the trend is as difficult as reaching the sky.
