"Children of the Weather" far exceeded expectations, and I shed tears for Xin Haicheng for the first time.
In fact, the director's style has been established since "Five Centimeters Per Second", innocent and strong love between two people, real and beautiful scenes, and just right tear-gas music. Some people regard it as clichés, but I have to say that director Xin Hai is diligent every day and has entered a new aesthetic realm with the help of his skill in new works.
The core of the story is very simple, still youthful and ignorant exploration and acquaintance. However, in "Second", the skill is not enough, there are good sentences but no good articles. The station waits for a long snowy night, and the ending "one more time, one more chance" is pleasant, but the overall appearance is sparse. And "Your Name. "With the help of the dramatic structure of "The Peony Pavilion", although it seems magnificent, the excitement of deciphering and surviving has relieved many expressions of pure love. Until "Heaven", Xin Haicheng understood that the most suitable for him was the simple plot and strong emotions, so the form of presentation should be the most important issue.
The weather is the earliest and most secretive "celestial and human induction" for human beings. All ethnic groups believed that the weather had a mysterious connection with people when they were young. We chanted "Winter thunder and summer rain and snow" and sighed "June Feishao". We believe that when people have a will to surpass themselves, an absolute will that is almost god will respond with the weather. Xin Haicheng clings to this point tightly and has completed a story with a classical charm without losing a modern romance.
Amano Haruna has the chance to have the ability of "Haruna". It seems that she has walked to the wonderful rooftop torii, but in fact it is her sincere heart of praying for her mother. Torii is just a Japanese expression of the door of connection. But she was restrained by fate, but treated with sincerity. The sunny days in exchange for life are not to make money, but to see smiles, even if it is as simple as traveling with a child, or at a low level such as betting on horses. No matter whether Yang Cai was inspired by fate or faced with fate, he only had a sincere heart.
This sincerity was also reflected in Morishima Hougao. He never explained why he left Tokyo, but said poetically that he wanted to chase that light. And judging from the fact that he walked on the deck despite the wind and rain, he did have a potentially hot soul. However, in the metropolis, this kind of soul is bound to be deeply challenged, and the role of the gun is very interesting at this time.
The gun was obtained by Fan Gao accidentally. It seemed that it was only a reason for the police to pursue vigorously, and it was only used for plotting. In fact, the gun is the only way to make this cold adult world face him. Think carefully about the city presented in the film, which is bizarre and self-contained. Materialistic, love to listen to gossip, believe in nonsense. As a result, she sneered at "Haru Girl was sacrificed for you." If Fan Gao shot the police for the first time and successfully rescued Yang Cai, then the second shot would have enough meaning. No matter what I say, you don't listen. Even Mr. Suga who had a similar encounter would prevent me from boarding the torii gate, so I can only fire a warning shot. Adults refuse to believe in fairy tales, and naturally they refuse to believe in sincerity. This is the cold law of the adult world. Well, firing a gun is a mockery of this law of violent subjugation, which is to force adults to understand themselves, or at least not to stop them. That's why Suga suddenly launched an attack and attacked the police to make Hougao board the torii gate.
This choice happened again three years later, and Fan Gao has stood at the door of an adult after graduation. Yangna never saw it again, as if only the flooded Tokyo reminded him that everything three years ago was not a dream. When Fan Gao visited Suga, the latter told him not to think so much. You did not change the world. Fan Gao was also hesitating whether to follow the advice, until the moment when he met Yang Cai again, he shouted in shock, no, we changed the world. All through the torii gate to the clouds, the weather is clear with hands folded, the rainy night avoids chasing, the huts and alleys depend on each other, all this is true. Just like this submerged Tokyo, no matter how many people try to explain the proof with how many theories, there is no denying that this is because of the price I brought you back to the world!
"Mountains without mausoleums, rivers and rivers are exhausted", the feelings of "Shang Evil" that shake the world and earth are once again staged in the top cities of modern mankind. Heavy rain and meteorites seem to be natural disasters. But the meteorite landing still has the fetters of life and death through time and space, as if life is at stake to make the emotions moving. But "Heaven" abandoned everything. Everything I did was not for anyone, not for any one thing, I just wanted to be with you. I don't even know if this is love, I don't dare to confess because I misunderstand you are an elder, or I still feel that we haven't gotten that far. These are not important anymore, before I figure out my heart, I only believe in one thing, I want to bring you back to my side. As for whether Tokyo is submerged, and whether the world will separate, then go to hell!
You can call it Secondary Two, but using the word here is somewhat frivolous. I would like to regard it as a literary, classicist romance, a hymn to those who stick to their true heart in an increasingly blurred modern society.
From this observation, Xin Haicheng has never changed, he just found the most suitable way of expression, and then burst out with extremely dazzling power. It's not on heaven and earth to thrive, but on sincere faith and immortality. Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting Regret" can survive the ages, precisely because of this. This kind of classical creation always has a moving shock.
Therefore, I did not cry. I am not moved by the misery of the plot, but by this powerful force. To cry silently on the seat is the best tribute to "Children of the Weather".
(Actually four stars, one extra star for watch favorites.)
