Movies are not stage plays

Regarding this movie, I retrieved Nominated for 5 Oscars. Another 27 wins & 41 nominations on IMDB. With so many honors and affirmations, it is like adding a royal robe to us. It is difficult for us ordinary people to reverse the situation.
However, since the saying goes: the insider looks at the doorway, the outsider looks at the excitement. A layman like me will definitely put forward my opinion: this kind of movie is too lively.
Firstly, almost no chapter is accompanied by movie music to incite emotions (is this a boring film model), secondly, looking at the original ecology of the villages everywhere, is the director a realist diehard? ("Desperate "Housewives" That neighborhood should be a bit more upscale than here). In the past, I was always educated, saying that art comes from life and is higher than life. When I saw a movie that was almost equivalent to life, I felt very distracted.
Finding a little bit of trouble, of course, is not to say that the film has no merit. The 5 Oscar nominations are very telling. Plainness has the benefits of being fairness, and Luobu Qingcai must have their own love.
Finally, I was thinking, since this kind of film that relies on language and performance has received unanimous praise from major film festivals, no one has the idea of ​​adapting it into a stage play?
