This film, which won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival in 2013, not only touched the filmmakers like Spielberg and Nicole Kidman, but also the story and the emotional changes of the characters. It makes people miss it from time to time, and revisited it several times without knowing it. First look at the English translation of "Like Father Like Son", I thought it was about the role of a person, both the father of the child and the child of the father. After watching the film, I really understand its meaning. It is about the delicate relationship between a father and son, the father and son, and the two are each other's father and son. It means that although the father provides material conditions to raise the child, he still has to understand some things from the child. His son is sometimes his "father". Although the child is raised by his father, he can also teach his father a lesson about the true meaning of family affection. His father is sometimes his "son". The roles of two people are not established by age and seniority. The main theme of the movie is about the bondage of family, not blood but emotion accumulated over time. Even if blood relationship makes father and son look alike, what really connects father and son is the inner emotion, which is similar to the father's in gestures. And emotions come from the accumulation of time. For a child, it is the time you spend with him. The longer you spend with him, the more he looks like you. Throughout the film, under Bach's "Gothenburg Variations", the relationship between a father and son in the current urban standard family is interpreted. After accidentally knowing that there is no blood relationship between each other, the changes happened. The main line of this plot is exactly the same as in the Variations, which uses a theme to guide the comparison and correspondence, and explore the various possibilities of interpretation. Perhaps the director deliberately chose this kind of classical music, which implies the main theme of family affection, and the emotions contained in it are also ever-changing. In the first ten minutes of the movie, you will find that this typical modern urban family is exactly the life scene that each of us is pursuing. His father Nonomiya works in a first-class construction company, his mother takes care of housework full-time, and his six-year-old only son, Keita, is entering a key elementary school. A family of three lives in a high-end apartment, the children will attend cram school, learn piano, and the father-son ensemble every night, which makes the mother very pleased. In these ten minutes, you see a happy family of three. The cost of living in this way is that fathers never have weekends, and only some parent-child projects that must be participated in will reluctantly ask for leave, such as the child’s admissions parent-child interview and the recall of the child’s birth hospital. The original seemingly beautiful life of a family of three has changed, and the most touched one must be the leader of this family, my father. His successful man, a stern and loving father, faced the contrast of another family. And the other's family is exactly the opposite mirror image of him in the society. My father is a technician who runs an electrical appliance store, my mother works in a convenience store, and the family lives in a door-door house on the street. The children play in the backyard and on the street every day. If the child will leave his parents to go to college at the age of eighteen, after elementary school, the parents and the child The most precious one-third of the time of the son's company has passed, and the growth experience with different parents makes the father and son who are blood related to each other no longer resemble each other. In the end, the father chose blood and re-accepted a child who had nothing to do with him except his appearance. I still choose to establish a relationship with my child over the past six years, ignoring the limitation of blood relationship. It is a difficult problem for every parent, and the discussion of this problem in the movie has led us to see the boundaries of family affection. This strange child has a different lifestyle from yours. You need to teach him the basic lifestyle again, starting from holding chopsticks, not biting straws, sitting in the bathroom, to only playing games for 30 minutes, learning English and yourself every day bath. In addition to asking children easily, adults can’t answer even the most basic questions of children. Facing questions from your own children, why should you call you father and mother? Fathers can only ask themselves silently. What is all this? why? Through the setting of children's exchange family, the film compares two different typical families, and throws out several questions about current social education. First: How does the parent's growth experience subtly affect the education of the next generation of children. Many of the protagonists in the film experienced severe separation between their father and mother in their childhood, and finally grew up to be a strong social person under the strong patriarchy, and they have always resisted the identity of adoptive mothers. Therefore, he will naturally think that children need to be independent to become stronger. Even the first time a child exchanges family stay, he must tell his children that this is a task of becoming stronger. When he met a completely different father, he did not use his education and work to win recognition, but was completely defeated. In the words of this simple and majestic father: You don't need to be the same person as your own father. It turns out that there are fathers who think that children are more important than work, and that it is the father's job that no one can replace with the children. The time spent flying kites, bathing, and sunbathing in the backyard is just a few years. The director's father is also said to be a naughty guy who spit water at his children when he takes a bath, so the director reproduces his childhood here. The father bites a straw and drinks a drink and the child will follow suit. The mother likes to blink his eyes and make faces, and the child will immediately learn to respond. What is passed down in every bit is the character and attitude of the parents. There is no standard answer. The society is more exciting because of the diversity of people and things. Second: There is no difference in living conditions in the eyes of children, the only difference is the companionship of the parents. For children, whether they live in a high-end apartment is actually the same as the square on the street. A separate children’s room and a huge bathroom are no better than a small bathtub with the company of an adult. No amount of new toys can be better. dad Fix your favorite one. On the contrary, adults are always struggling to provide high-end living environment and expensive toys. When the father's company is no longer extravagant, and there is no need to practice piano for a word of praise, the child's life can be very simple. But because of the weight of his father in his heart, even if he is not good at it, he can continue to practice for his father's attention. It is said that there is an unused line in the film, which is the simple and honest father Xiongda said to his strict father that the process of parenting is not "hit the ball" but "catch the ball." Japan, a country that regards baseball as its national ball, has to say that the playing methods and rules in baseball are very profound. This is also very common in American movies. The father is not responsible for constantly fighting back the children's special requirements and requirements, but to learn to accept the children's uniqueness and differences. Many fathers were transferred to a relatively easy department by the company. In the artificial forest, he was told by the forest guard that the emergence of cicadas usually takes 15 years. His first reaction was that it was so long, and then he fell into contemplation. In getting along with the unfamiliar biological child Liu Qing, he finally understands that giving to the child often takes more time. In the end, Yan's father felt a lot of blood connections between him and his son Qingduo in his memories, and he still loved Qingdo more, even though the child was not as strong as him. When he began to let go of himself, followed his son all the way, trying to express his love for him, starting from seeing him sorry for breaking the agreement, he said that he saw the photos his son took for him, and also told his son that he had given up the piano and said Apologized to the child for losing the gift on Father’s Day, and finally emphasized that he had been Kyodo’s father for six years. He finally ended with the task of becoming stronger and regained the connection between himself and the child. The roles between father and son have been transferred here. At the end of the film, returning to the electronics store, his son Kyodo asked his father: Did you know that Spider-Man is actually a spider? Father smiled and replied: It was the first time I heard. Ingeniously responded to the movie title like father like son, what the child knows and can teach you, maybe more than you think. This is another nuanced family sketch by the director, Hirokazu Eda, following "Non-stop". There are many characters in different scenes in the film, which make people's emotions infinitely vent, deeply touching the audience outside the lens. There is a slight comedic conflict in the plot narration. After Qingdo's grandmother learned about it, she babbled in front of her daughter that people like a lot of people like ours were not something that a countryman like ours could climb. The daughter stopped and said: It's not because of jealousy that this happened. As a result, the plot arranged by the director is that the nurse on duty in the countryside retaliates because of the unsatisfactory relationship with her remarried husband and children. Six years later, even children who are not related by blood will also take revenge. When she came forward to protect her, she truly understood the power of family affection and chose to tell the truth and apologize to everyone. Several empty scenes in the film are well separated from the rhythm. Every time I go to the male to exchange children, I believe that the audience is also in this gap, thinking the same as the characters. In this 120-minute film journey, as the father’s director, I hope to make us think more... I believe that the two completely different performances of Fukuyama Masaharu and Lili Frank will definitely give you a lot of experience. Of the two types of paternal love, which one do you prefer? The two mothers are played by Ono Machiko and Maki Yoko, and the role of the mother can always insight into the child's heart. The appearance of several children in the film is even more natural. The big-eyed Ninomiya Keita and the naughty Huang Shengxuan, under the guidance of the director, appeared perfectly. I’m here for the first time this time. I hope everyone, whether you are a parent or not, will not miss this wonderful video. ~唊嗫~
