The whole film reveals an extremely depressed and heavy situation, with a strong sense of loneliness and sadness, without the backing of the soundtrack, plus the use of a large number of spacious and far-reaching long shots, removing the dialogue of the characters, just like indulging in In the deadly wilderness, the heart is full of irresistible despair and helplessness. In the eyes of many people, it may be regarded as a natural sleeping pill and a glue for the upper and lower eyelids, but in fact, it can be seen that the director’s good intentions, When these created atmospheres are integrated with the plot of the film, there is something extraordinary and just right. The main theme of the director's expression and the emotional appeal to the audience are provided with certain assistance and performance through the requirements of the situation.
The storyline of the film is quite simple, it can be divided into two if it is clear. The criminals ran around looking for the hiding place of the corpse, but in fact there was something deeper. One was the truth of the incident, which was concealed by the cruel reality, and the other was the truth of the plot, which was carefully planned by the director. Under the story. This film is extremely realistic, as if it is a step-by-step process of real life into the image, just like happening in front of you. One very important reason for creating such an effect is that the director did not add self-feeling narratives, but random As the plot progresses smoothly, acting as an outsider who sits on the sidelines, this attitude suddenly makes the film surprisingly close to reality and becomes a more touching weapon.
When I saw the village chief’s daughter crying, he admitted that the deceased’s son was his own son, the accomplices at the crime scene did not recruit themselves, the rumors that the victim was “resurrected from the dead”, and the forensic doctor’s concealment of the facts, these doubts were finalized. The results raised negatives and doubts, who is the murderer? Is his son's father? An accomplice? Or the wife of the deceased? In the end, there was only a clear answer and no truth. The director left more thinking space for the audience to understand and infer. But personally, through emotional tears, the shame and sadness that my son showed after throwing stones at me, and the verbal prevention of his accomplices, greatly weakened his trueness. From these subtle details, we can see that what is hidden behind the incident is people’s helplessness and compromise in life. Perhaps the son’s father’s decision to go his own way at last is a kind of self- atonement and responsibility for being irresponsible. punish.
Drunkard’s meaning is not in wine. Just like what I wrote before, there is also the truth of the plot. As an opportunity and a platform, with the help of the process of this incident, what lies behind is the sad social environment brewing in people’s hearts. Kushui, the several dialogues designed by the director in the film are very meaningful. Through their complaints and confession, plus some meticulous insertion of details, it seems to express the voice of the people who have been suppressed for a long time. The two police officers are talking about the difficulty of raising a family. As well as the difficulty of facing the turbulent social work status, the prosecutors are self-righteous or evasive misunderstandings about the death of his wife and disappointed with the status quo of society. Forensic doctors are passionately watching the pictures of women in the computer, from their words and In the behavior, you can experience the frustration of the turbulent and corrupt environment of a society with a high crime rate, the helplessness and sadness of hard life, the remorse of losing responsibility and sense of shame, and the infinite desire for a happy family.
There are two very thoughtful details in the film. One is the expression when everyone sees the village chief’s daughter in a dark environment. Her appearance seems to light a bright lamp in their dimming hearts, like a kind of fullness. The precious hope defeated their disguised strength and inner hopelessness, and triggered their constantly suppressed emotions, as if to inject a touch of warmth into the film. The other is that the supposedly pure apples stumbled all the way down the slope and fell into the ditch until there was no way out and waited silently for corrosion. A very symbolic detail, like a metaphor for local residents as apples, and the ditch is as bad as it is. The environment can only live passively, allowing the environment to change. Even so, we can still see people’s hard work and persistence for life, regret and self-blame for the harm they have created, but for the entire filthy environment, it is like hitting a rock with a pebble and cannot play a big role. .
There are too many unknown or indifferent truths hidden in the world. The unbearable life of people in the poor and poor social environment eventually led to the decline of the country and the residents to taste the hardships and sufferings of life. Through this film, tin Lan exposes the painful and impatient souls of people living in a bleak reality that seem to be well-behaved and ordinary life. Although nothing can be changed, perhaps this image will become a forgotten past like the title of the film in the future, but at least Such excellent works will be included in the annals of film history and become a testimony to the truth of reality. The setting of the ending of the film is quite subtle. The forensic doctor with blood on his face was watching the mother and son who were gone through the window. Suddenly the child ran back and kicked the kicked ball back to a group of children who were playing. It seems to indicate that there is still hope in this country full of blood and violence.
