——Jian Zhen 1 In Paris a century ago, the entire city was a giant playground, half a garbage dump and half a paradise. All kinds of waste are buried in the garbage dump, including the anger, sadness, and melancholy excreted by people, which are buried under the thousands of tons of waste paper in fake news and food packaging. In the man-made paradise, everyone is celebrating festivals. Tourists from different ethnic groups, religions and countries live their own festivals. There are also Parisian festivals such as Christmas and National Day. Even an agricultural product market can be quickly Talking and laughing American tourists and bohemian wandering dancers have evolved into the biggest celebration you have ever seen. People use steel, velvet, alcohol, and fragrances to create the largest man-made paradise on land. It is not surprising that this will become the birthplace of art movies. The story begins with a messy masquerade party, funny dresses, bizarre masks, everyone is drunk with free champagne in their hands, only Zu and Zhan have their eyes fixed on the joy of friendship. They came from Central Europe to worship this capital of literature and art, looking for Jerusalem in their hearts in museums and cafes. At that time, the cafe was not like now. There are only two kinds of people who spend the whole day in the cafe. One has no work and the other has no vacation. They ran out of their homes and offices just to move their buttocks. Fill your ears with coffee. At that time, the cafe was the favorite place of celebrities, writers, poets, painters and all kinds of students from the University of Paris, Hugo! He even declined the doctor’s advice, willing to die for 5,000 cups of coffee. If you don't dress like a gentleman, the waiter of Flower God and Green Ball will not lead you. Only in such a place can Zu and Zhan meet. They have very different personalities, one is slightly conservative and the other is slightly ostentatious. Both of them have extraordinary backgrounds, are educated by elites, have the bold and noble taste of the new aristocracy, and have deep insights into literature and society. They love classics, not red tape classics, but classics pursuing the essence of art. The wish of the two gentlemen is simple, in Paris, find a career that is enough to make a living, and then find a Greek girl who loves. The life of a doer is simple, starting with you cut the first loaf of bread and pick up the fallen crumbs. Men’s pursuit of women and men’s pursuit of love are two things. A certain woman may be able to satisfy a certain aspect of a man’s reality, but a man’s desire for idealized love is absolutely unrealistic. Zu and Zhan, these two gentlemen, both traditional and innovative, have an open concept of love. They have the gentlemanly demeanor that matches the appearance of any beautiful woman. Beautiful faces are not the ultimate goal. There is no certain kind of "ultimate goal" to qualify People who choose to become their "emotional terminator", they are constantly looking for objects to pour out their love, just to maintain their beautiful fantasy. In their eyes, good women are like sculptures, oil paintings, and antique furniture. They are the protagonist of the house and the most proud part of the house. When a man enters the house, he becomes the owner of the house, and he should choose what suits him. This kind of love pattern seen in books such as "Kai Sutra" made people laugh in the moment, but it was the norm at the time. The cognition of the superior people's sophistication always comes from their cultural circle, school education and family education. There are such details in many satires. What they want to know can be found in the obscure encyclopedia. They respect women, women are also human, but in their eyes, women are another person, or another kind of person. They will not really understand what an independent and sound woman is thinking. In heaven, women All are the phantoms of angels. The process of exploring love was novel and interesting at first. Apart from debates with the times and hard work, their bodies and minds were greatly relaxed. Paris has nurtured women who are all daughters of Eros. They are the providers of love and are full of desire for love. When you seek love, they will surely throw out an answer that will benefit you a lot. The first love is a game, chasing and answering, lingering in laughter. 2 Paris is really a place that nurtures and abandons people. The extravagant and cynics can find comrades here. The gate of the amusement park is open, welcoming and sending, and the star-shaped square does not miss the hero or resist the murderer. Many people use books and movies to write love letters for Paris, and few have the ability to pay tribute to the entire history of Paris and everyone. I have to admit that Truffaut is one of the best in film expression. Despite the changes of the times, "Ancestor and Occupy" can also be read with "Dream of Play in Paris" as a reply from Paris to the world. Truffaut wrote a long preface for "Ancestors and Occupations", and has been in love with this book at first sight since the first line of Yun. The director hopes that when everyone has read this book, they will fall in love with the author of the book, Henri-Pierre Roche, who published this novel in 1953 at the age of seventy-four as his first book. . The script of the movie was adapted jointly by the director and the author, and the dialogue and the storyboard were all carefully considered. The film reflects the conciseness and beauty of the novel to the greatest extent, and projects the author's rich artistic interest. This is a collaboration between two talents and two close friends, and it has written an extremely moving page in the history of French cinema. The idea of "Ancestor and Occupy" is not for morals, but it is not false. Those dialogues are not the author's self-talk. The real Ms. Katz was still alive when the film was released. In the book, there is no serious discussion about love. From constant questioning and sigh, people can piece together the various states of a man in love. The film screens also aim to express such situations, people and friends, people and lovers, people and family, placing people in many relationships and observing the changes of people. The essence of emotion lies in people's grasp of relationship bonds. How we express ourselves and express ourselves is the appearance of our emotional needs. As the British writer Greenham said, love is a process in which people continue to understand people who know it is impossible to understand. It is a selfless and naive vision, and it is self-sacrifice and self-realization. It is impossible to formulate an equation to deviate from the individual personality of the person to show the chemical or physical reaction of love, and the analysis of the heart also appears pale. The director and author reached an unanimous choice to use beautiful things to set off people's emotions so that emotions can occur freely. The camera and writing only need to record the process of occurrence. The rich and orderly beauty of this movie is here. It is serious, enthusiastic and not deliberate, and even cunningly avoids the moral dilemma that it may face, because true love will not be the enemy of morality. Like most male works, the director focuses on the love of men and women in the eyes of men. Through this film, people can get a glimpse of the self-image that a man has built in his heart. They yearn for perfection, and constantly explore their imperfections, worry about them, and strive for them. Under this concept, the friendships they form are profound, and their feelings for others are also profound. They separate themselves from society, constantly examine and listen to their hearts, and liberate wisdom and sentiment. Their lives are almost perfect, almost, if they don't live in society, different people chase each other. Such a man will make women face a question, do they need an eternal lover or a long-term love? The eternal lover always makes people's heart move, falling into the frenzy of affection, unable to get it and can't extricate itself. Long-lasting love gives people warmth and comfort. It is a mouthful of bread and tea, appearing within reach. In fact, the latter is more difficult to find. It requires patience, good emotions, good relationship and other factors of reality. For the former, one or two can always be encountered in one's life. If you encounter ancestor and occupy at the same time, then there are two, both the sun god and the wine god. The women soon have dreams, but still don't know how the other side sees themselves or how to deal with this passion. Passion is so good, you can burn your soul into a hole, pour all the trivialities into hellfire, and float your body and mind to heaven. Once the flame went out, only a cold hole filled with ashes remained in my heart. Those women who have the same ancestors or who have had a lot of hands, What happened later? It was not explained in the movie. It seems that affectionate is unfortunate, especially in women. Men are more rational, more self-controllable, and will not dwell on fantasies. The happier women have their own homework. They are lucky to live in Paris. They have so many careers and entertainments, and have the skills to save and pass time. They don't have to stay in the classroom and kitchen for the rest of their lives. They will not think that they have been fooled and abandoned by fate just because they broke up. They can use their self-esteem in other places, such as one or two hobbies, a few friends, long trips, dance parties... There are many ways to relieve pain in the man-made paradise of Paris. There are fewer things that can be called unfortunate, at least not a breakup or a divorce. Zu and Zhan had previously met such clear and bright women. The author has been with his mother since childhood. The director also has a lot of experience in women's stories. They know these Parisian women. In a word, they will not devote themselves to a relationship, they enjoy romance, gifts, sex and love, and they refrain from asking men all the time. Focusing on their lives, they want balance. No man should naturally possess everything about a woman and break this balance. These outstanding women from all over the world are good companions in life, but ancestors and possessions, all they want is the attraction and absolute possession of the soul. 3 Lvti is inevitable. There is a soprano in the opera who acts as a character endowed with love, the embodiment of purity and beauty. She will be jealous and suppressed, love will encounter many obstacles, she is indomitable and fragile, if she dies, her death will sublime the tenor's soul. Ludi is such a woman. Every man who pursues high-end tastes is eager to meet and know such a woman. Her image not only expresses the author's aesthetic orientation, she also opens up men's fascination for pure love. Ludi in the movie is a memorable character. She is light and graceful, walking in the woods like a fairy. Her dresses are simple and elegant, the epitome of the old age. As aristocratic women, their clothes are handmade by tailors, without eye-catching colors, which are suitable for the country houses, theaters, and salons they enter and exit. The children of the nobles have been in boarding schools since they were young, and some have gone to school overseas. They have unique personalities and different pursuits. Ludi is not a person who is addicted to pleasure, her pursuit of literature and art is in the same line as her erudite father. For the men in the film, she is an excellent listener and an excellent marriage partner. She was educated by the patriarchal society and grew up. She has a docile personality, her speech and manners are quiet, and the expression on her face is calm, and she rarely expresses her personality. Ludi’s gleaming image will remain in Zhan’s memory for a long time. She represents the initial ambivalence of men towards women. awaken. As a male, I would also choose to be married with Ludi. Winning the heart of such a woman can prove one's wisdom and taste, and this recognition is also a testament to the prestige of the society at that time. She is the epitome of a traditional French lady, perseverance, loyalty, gentleness, and the best life foil for an ambitious man. Faced with questions from Katz, she chose a pertinent response, which is one of the few examples of her noble character. Her nobleness lies in that she can give equal respect to people with different personalities and experiences. She does not believe that slandering others can bring a sense of victory. She believes that gentleness and kindness can be exchanged for inner peace and happiness. She is always calm, from her posture to her dress, I can even imagine the faint scent of lavender on her body. She is the guardian of the soul, she possesses flexibility and wisdom that other women cannot match. Her unbreakable purity is retreat, and after the retreat, she still has infinite yearning. It is another way of writing white rose and red rose, two kinds of men's extreme desires for women. In fact, the love they want is the same, surrendering to the beauty of the extraordinary creation of women, no matter the soul or the body. Under certain conditions, this will lead to a tragedy that cannot have both fish and bear's paws. It is true that love is free, and men still have to return to their family and life. Duras said in "Material Life": "Without love, men are unbearable." Recalling the changes that accounted for to Ludi, ordinary women are indeed unbearable. From intimacy to estrangement, losing momentum in that period of emotion, I came to her to make a marriage contract. How selfish it is to make people laugh. Every woman has faced such an intolerable moment more or less, especially after marriage, when the husband is drunk, blames the child and himself for no reason, ignores the feelings of his parents and himself, the disappointment at that moment is beyond words. What does Ludi rely on to endure everything? Just love? No, not only that, love needs to be borne. As for what each woman should bear, it depends on her. The reason why Ludi can bear it is because she lives under the patriarchal education, she is very clear about what she can't get from men. She doesn't need to know much about men, even her lover, she already knows herself enough. Her upbringing and noble character made her do this. Her character is the proof of her heart. She doesn't need a man, even a king, to make a conclusion for her. She already has everything she should have in life, and a love, for her, is also a touch of getting along, talking, walking slowly in the woods, a new dress for driving out with her partner. A woman with a full heart is necessary. She opens up a man's heart and keeps a decent distance, so that right and wrong will not discredit her soul. If it’s a man, I long for a green stem, if it’s a woman , I want to be Lvdi. 4 Most women are Kates. Katz’s beauty has never been forgotten, and the Greek melancholy captured both ancestors and occupation at the same time. She is not a small French woman, her facial features are full of balanced rhythmic beauty, and her skeleton is also a Nordic woman, who can support formal clothes, and her home is never sloppy. Although most women are not as eye-catching as Kates, their pursuit of beauty is similar. Uneasy and abide by the rules, I hope to give full play to my own advantages, and do not use honorific and modest words to win the favor of others. Confidence is the most beautiful jewelry, and personality is the most fashionable accessory. There are thousands of people, and the yearning for beauty is eternal. Kates represents an intuitive improvement. She dressed up as a woman at the masquerade party, laughed heartily when talking to the gentleman, and put on makeup in front of the man instead of sneaking up before he gets up. At the same time, she is also a family-oriented hostess, likes holidays, loves rural life, and knows how to cook and garden. These are unimaginable by women in the old age. There is no higher commander, she does things by instinct. Her life is unrestrained and free. In Paris, this man-made paradise, she has come to build a nest for herself, just like contemporary urban women. Her architectural taste is still fresh in memory. The fishing hut by the lake she bought is cold and deserted. She warmed the place with enthusiasm, shed invisible sunlight in the corner of the second floor. The artwork and lifestyle she chose preserved the living habits of the vagrants from outside, picking up discarded things from the garbage dump outside the playground, and creating a magical effect. She knows that she is a creation of God, and she knows how to create. She learns, is nourished by aesthetics and then feeds back, radiating natural female instincts, and constantly improving herself and the people around her. She is hot, gushing out, like a fountain of youth. Those who know how to create are closer to destruction than those who follow the trend. The power of rebirth is a double-edged sword. When people use it to sweep away the thorns of reality, one side of the sword faces oneself. Katz’s arbitrariness is not inferior to that of men, and she hopes to be equal in the relationship between the sexes. She rules love, and a man who has the ability to possess her should be completely possessed by her. She was fully taken care of when interacting with her ancestors, but her ancestors still belonged to the tradition and could not allow her progressive personality to be displayed. She was taken care of by the goddess of war, Athena, who valued wisdom and worked tirelessly to overcome challenges. Hezu's emotions are too smooth, and boredom makes her feel hollow. The interaction with Zhan is a fierce tango dance. They are in love and are competing with each other. She values Zhan, her passion is blazing, and she also hopes to be loved by Zhan. Their contradictions are always aroused in the debate. The drunken remarks that accounted for the male spirit made her unbearable. She felt that the lover had forgotten who she was. For people, alienation is a kind of betrayal. This turmoil could have subsided, but she evolved into a cold war, obeying emotional changes during the cold war. Kates wanted to provoke Zhan's vanity as a man, but Zhan stayed in position and even hit her on the cheek impulsively. That palm shattered her fantasy. For dignity, she subverted the planned life. Women are mostly like Kates, but Kates is the only one among women. The relationship between the sexes will always turn into a struggle without knowing it, especially in Europe. The cultural foundation of Europe is established by men. How many excellent women show their glory after death. The iconic, Cambridge University academic club, only men can join, and only men can get a place in the diplomatic world of the European Union. How many queens and heroines have appeared in the European continent, and the women there still use the husband’s surname, and the highest social status is also a lady. Don’t we still call Dr. Marie Curie Madame Curie? Some people choose to change silently, while others choose war and revolution, pull away from the daily trivialities, open up their lives to the battlefield, and fight for themselves. Katz is a revolutionary woman, she is not French, and she was also inspired by the revolutionary capital. No oath is more unbreakable than death. Her self-drowning is not impulse but an oath to deprive her of her noble coat, and she would rather die. However, it is part of social morality that people who criticize suicide do not condone suicide. Her death is like a shot in the chest of all the audience. When she locked herself in the wardrobe of another marriage, her soul also went to death. Destruction means that a person is shot in a war and did not die on the spot. The bullet stays in the body, and continues to destroy the blood and muscles in the body. Suddenly one day, it becomes a fatal blow. Kates fell on the battlefield of the battle of dignity, and her soul took away her lover with revenge. Love became eternal and her only tombstone. Unable to fix it with the love of life, and unable to return to the happy marriage that she pretended to be, the conflict between the two caused her fate. She can't ignore the inner cry, live in pretense, relying on the turning of the golden wedding ring to survive. Her affection was a tragedy, and death became her final judgment. Every soothing and elegant lens blooming like petals, every noble retro scene, is a conspiracy performed by the director and the author. They arranged flowers with delicate gestures and placed the roses in the crystal vase on the ancient Greek pillar-like high platform, in order to finally push the vase down. 5 "Zu Yu Zhan" is an excellent adaptation of the film, excellent results from the concerted efforts of the director and author. Not to interpret life, but to move life into the frame, is the appeal of the director of the New Wave. Although "Ancestor and Occupy" shows France in the old age, Truffaut continues to explore and taste Try to restore the stage of the times as much as possible. After all, the story is still about marriage and family, or about the life choices of people with different values. The two men are both gentlemen and prodigal sons. The film does not demonstrate their respective families. They live for a long time, keep correspondence with their families, and communicate like vacations. Their family concept is idealized, and their relationship with the family is loose and free. When men come to society, they should shape and show themselves. Ludi and Kates are different. Ludi belongs to the old and huge family and satisfies the company with her father. Katz constantly plans an idealized family, chooses lifelong friends, personally teaches her children, and controls her husband. Everyone has been so happy, the novel says, "Life is one holiday after another", a heavenly day! But not long. Men still have to go home. Because they are away for a long time, they have no say in the details of family life. No matter how well dressed, it is still difficult for a man to remember how many ties are in the closet. It is impossible for a woman to always cling to a man. Lottie walked out of the castle to accept marriage and accept a new family with some difficulty, but Katz discovered that she could not completely control the love of her lover. A man and a woman dance in life, always changing positions. The man aimed at every step he was about to take and the same sex around him who wanted to take away his dancing partner. The woman lowered her eyes to take care of her skirt and the back of the two. No one can be the master of another person, another person can hold his hand in the palm of his hand, and he can also pull it out. The dance music of fate will not stop because of the two wrong steps and disputes, and every step taken cannot be backed up. The director meticulously showed the French style and experienced their different psychology, behavior and speech. The lives of several characters are themselves art. They all want to take the lead and refuse to let go and accommodate others. Although small disagreements are suppressed by time, they have brewed into the fuse of contradictions. Personality and generality are not in harmony, and the relationship between people is caught in a dilemma. The entanglement between the characters is not meaningless attrition, it is uncountable sadness. Happiness and sorrow always coexist, as do love and hate. Intense investment will inevitably lead to a strong backlash, seeing the impermanence of life up close, and seeing its own cause and effect in the distance. The hypothetical redemption and remedy does not exist, and every choice cannot be repeated. The French like to use empirical evidence to educate people. They don't discuss right and wrong, don't play with logic, and rely solely on edification. The fables written by the French are the most interesting. Whether the story is romantic or sad, there is always a kind of quintessence that fits the human instinct to impress everyone who enters the drama. This is the unique charm of French film art. It is not as unassuming as the new Italian realism, nor does it use British black humor to destroy the wisdom of the audience. Tragedy itself is a kind of power, a beautiful and powerful life Premature death is a foregone conclusion that does not require much speculation. The most moving thing about "Ancestors and Occupations" is the simplicity of this empirical spirit. Practicing the expectations of life, sliding into the river of destruction in disappointment, the original love, due to the interpretation of the soul, becomes unforgettable. As Kates stepped on the biggest gas pedal, the actor and the audience got into the death car. Suddenly, they fell out of the playground, and Paris, an artificial paradise, was still open to the world. The movie does not have a curtain. After the lights are turned on, people's thoughts and emotions do not need an extra end. When Truffau finished filming the film, the novelist had passed away. He fulfilled a man's promise to another man. Everyone who read it will fall in love with the author who wrote "Zu Yu Zhan". This long-lasting love stems from people's tragic moment, and from people's bold yearning for a better life.
