Director An (hands over the microphone), have you missed anyone in your life? Ah, don't want to fool around with a shy smile, I'm pretty sure you missed a very important person, you know the movie is not deceiving.

But I don’t think it’s the men that Director An must have missed (though judging by the signs of his recent filming...), it’s just that compared to the relationship between men and women, the relationship between the same sex is more or less beyond social responsibility. Outside. I have never heard of a male or female or female dating for the sake of "the age is here, the family has begun to rush, and they are about to get married and have children", so this kind of relationship can be said to be more biological or purer. At least it can be ensured that it started after "seeing the right eye". Director An said that "everyone has a Brokenback Mountain in their hearts". It does not mean "forbidden love", but simply means "there is no future, no reason, it is simply to fall in love with someone who may not be worthwhile" . There will be such a person in a person's life--ah, wait, I seem to be skeptical of Wong Kar Wai's lines.

My feelings for An Dao may be deeper than that of Wong Kar-wai. First, "The Wedding Banquet", like "Evil and West Tox," is a movie that played a very important role in my adolescence. The writers of the "New Martial Arts Novels" era cultivated a kind of "same enemy and hatred" class feeling during that period of endless battles with the population for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Thirdly, Director An is one of the very few directors who does not set a pre-position behind the camera. It can be seen that he has put himself in his own way for every character in his movie, and has considered their background, their difficulties, and their problems. Decided to leave room for each role, he understands and sympathizes with everyone, I like it.

But to paraphrase what Forman said to 13 (see American TV series House), a person’s attitude towards this society often depends on oneself, so if one strongly opposes the behavior of "labeling", it means that oneself is a "difficult to classify" person. . In the same way, if a person is unwilling to express too strong personal opinions and emotions, it means that there is a certain emotion/opinion that Iraq does not understand or cannot face or decide. It’s like saying that many people think that I can comfortably find reasons for all kinds of weird things, and finally express opinions such as "I understand" or "doing other people's things". The essential reason is, It is because I am a weird person.

Director An and Hippie--seriously, I can't see the connection between them. But some of my behaviors are said to be a bit of a hippy attitude-for example, I only treat my home as a "sleeping place", and don't care about the size of the house or the decoration, so I have never "saved money to buy a house". Concept; I don’t prepare for months in advance. I treat travel as an adventure. I often set off with a backpack on my back. When there is no hotel, I just sleep in the station, on the bench in the park, or be picked home by a stranger. When there was heavy rain on the road, I simply took off my shoes and headed for the wind; I was quite casual about nudity (a student: I saw you dew some day. A certain: Oh. A certain student: sweat!) Wait, but I don’t This is attributed to the nature of "just letting go" (this is a bit like Micheal Lang in the film, I am also the kind of "no matter how big things are going to be solved" without authorization), and there is I used to live in the countryside for three years. Apart from learning how to pick tea, plant seedlings, catch grasshoppers, and how to run faster than the big black dog of my neighbor, I was able to get along with the wild land (and even chaotic graves). Hippies, according to an American whose parents are Hippies, use "love and peace" as the motto (well, do you come from the same planet as Prince Hada?) and "naturalize" everything The strange race, that American classmate called it "the most civilized era in America" ​​at that time, made me half happy. The general characteristics are love of music, love of camping, love of marijuana, love of celestial sports, love of making love everywhere, and so on... In other words, living in pursuit of the sound of human nature that can resonate with the "beauty" of nature That’s why the classmate grew up in a caravan and received a "family education" with an Indian name~~~

It is hard to imagine a director who is always talking about Eastern ethics and sentimental concepts suddenly adopting this theme. If it weren’t for Ang Lee’s name at the beginning, I would think it’s a low-cost film made by a new director (the cost should be very low). Of course, if it weren’t for the name on the poster, the movie hall might not sit there. Many people, after all, this movie is quite a "running account", there is almost no story, only "events", so it doesn't matter what the beginning of the development climax or the like, the main body is composed of various characters, each segment, plus a mix of different dialogues. It's quite a "non-mainstream" movie that resembles the colorful shirts worn by hippies in the movie. Although there are many films of this type in France, hippie culture does not resonate here. Europe does not seem to have seen such a large-scale cultural ethnic rise. If I remember correctly, during the Vietnam War, France was just a "cafe When "text/philosophy" is flourishing, it is not the same-ah, no, it should be said that it is too different. As for China, cough cough, it should be said that Chinese people have not been very natural, and since I have been sensible, the environment that I have basically received is "all depends on money", so based on my growing background, it seems that there is no way to judge this film. Does it correctly reflect the spirit of Hippie and the Hippie culture at that time? However, I really appreciate the way that Director An cut into the location and time background of the film at the beginning of the film-the grumpy mother watched the television news of the time, with pictures of family portraits next to her. Director An has always been strong in shooting scenery, focusing on details and arranging music.

The whole "music festival", from the beginning was lifeless, almost felt that there was nowhere to go, and a decision that could not be abandoned, then it would turn around and gradually arouse the rebellious youth of Eliot and Billy, and finally under the illusion of stimulant. Ascends to a certain depressed feeling in the depths of my heart, finally surging out of gorgeousness uncontrollably. Eliot, who finally chose to leave, spent nearly 100,000 dollars with him in 20 years, but he ate tasteless food every day and lived a monotonous life. He didn't see smiles every day, and only hugged them to sleep after smoking marijuana. My weird mother is the representative of two lifestyles. It can’t be said that Director An agrees with a certain one and denies a certain one. After all, I think the most touching line is when Eliot asked his father "How can you bear to live with her for 40 years", and his father Sang simply answered "I "Love her", the word "love" should be better than countless confession in romantic dramas. It cannot be blamed. Even people like me who always think it is impossible to survive the marriage relationship feel the warmth and the most ordinary. At the deepest level, I think that even though I have doubts about the marriage system in this way, there are still many white hairs that hand in hand to convey such emotions between the fingers (Yes, I am a child from a single-parent family, but it does not mean I don’t believe that there is such a feeling of “no matter how poor, sick, or difficult, even if I have seen the most embarrassing side of you, I will never leave” in the world. In fact, I believe it, so when a friend gets married, every blessing is Sincere). The difficulties encountered in those music festivals are the constraints of our youth, and the music festivals are the "opportunities" of life. In the words of Micheal Lang, it happens to be in such a place at such a time. "This is destiny." Some people choose to be hostile, some choose to accept, some choose to leave, and some choose to stay. It is impossible to comment on which choice is correct, I just hope that every choice is made from the sincerity, not from "helpless responsibility."

I was said to have the magical power of "devil sound penetrating the brain", probably because I was talking nonsense, but the old god was there when I said it, and the argument was full, as if I was very sure of everything I said, so it affected Some people’s decisions do not know whether it is good or bad that has affected other people’s lives (ranging from learning to choose a major, to determining other people’s aptitudes, to reminding others, "Hey, you actually like xxx", whether it’s wrong or wrong. Marrying the wrong man had a bad debt on his back, and later repented and realized that he was not a suitable person to "give advice"), Andao's movies also have this function, or maybe it's just our frequency can match it. In fact, during my travels over the years, I have done countless things that scare people off their glasses, and in my opinion, I don’t need to care about them. There is only one thing. Every time I travel, I feel that it’s time to do it. , But every time he shrinks-is to find a handsome guy or beautiful woman to "stand for a night" during the journey. I think I can’t bear the “long-term one-on-one” relationship. My personality is too bad, and I can’t compromise at all without being in love, but it doesn’t matter during the journey, two strangers. People and names can be fake, there is no follow-up, only a memory, it should be quite fun. The wonderful thing is that this movie by Andor gave me the courage to "stand next time", it's amazing.

From "Brokeback Mountain" to "Lust Caution" to Woodstock, Director An, the people and things that I missed can't be repeated (the voice of the person who came here), and it has been a hundred years since I looked back, everything has changed. But as long as the volcano is not dead, you have also heard the story of the fisherman and the writer. It is absolutely regrettable that you have got everything but you have missed yourself. So at least once in your life, please feel free.

PS: I think Vilma played by Liev Schreiber is quite sexy, and it touches me (yes, I mean "that aspect"). He is more suitable for dressing up in women's clothing, not having a style, and sexy than men's clothing.
