Thoughts on Deprived of Happiness

The ending tears, Ceylon's handling of the ending is delicate and elegant, and it will definitely give you an inner blow in the end. The discussion of the theme is not about growing or completing a certain speculation, but about the exploitative nature of life itself, the established existence of it. You are deeply tied to your land, family, country, and academic qualifications, and how to deal with their restrictions on you. "The forgotten dreams are also beautiful" really pierced my heart. Write a hometown book and thank your family for being selfish. The urban-rural structure and inner dilemma it reflects are highly similar to contemporary China. How does Ceylon stand on the same front with the youth? Only to admire Ceylon is the director who really cares about everyone's dignity. Suddenly found that all the tears were in the archive.

I originally thought that concepts and conceptual speculation were the soul of liberal arts, but I was surprised that there were still so many questions that were not raised. Ceylon shows his memories as much as possible through the walking of the characters. I have to sigh that an old director can still wish to be in his early twenties so clearly. The second brush has more doubts: what kind of happiness is a dog? Is his father the old man who holds the secret of happiness? Did we choose to ignore happiness? Why did the father deliberately mention 300 yuan? Why is there no way to choose a life other than joining the army? Why can we only choose the original when we can choose? Why can't China have civilians discussing metaphysics? Why did the sun and green grass start at the end, but the heavy snow flew back home? What is the range of a shot of joining the army in terms of time? This film can be watched countless times, every time it can make people think about their true meaning. In addition, the relationship and the way of getting along with the male protagonist and his parents and grandparents in the film are too similar to him.

The Wild Pear Tree quotes

  • Sinan Karasu: Nobody's more dependable than a person who's alone with his conscience and free will. Because he builds this responsibility, he doesn't receive it. So he must undertake all the consequences of his acts.

    Imam Veysel: Who says free will is free? Even if it was, how could you trust it?

    Sinan Karasu: It's not for everyone. Isn't that why people without the courage choose servitude over existence?

    Imam Veysel: All rivers are born as furious waterfalls but grow calm on their way to the sea. But your raging rivers drag along lots of pebbles and sticks, too.

    Sinan Karasu: Just like strong characters drag underdogs and losers with them?

  • Imam Nazmi: Someone wrote that if the truth was proven to be outside Islam, he'd rather choose Islam than the truth.

    Sinan Karasu: Which proves the famous argument that faith is wanting not to know the truth.
