I haven't seen each other in a movie for a long time. It's like an old friend who has been in the dark for many years, remembering that there is this person, but he can't even call his name. (Last year's Mid-Autumn Festival, the middle school classmates reunited for the first time after graduation. Everyone felt embarrassed more or less about this: they couldn't call someone, and someone was not called. This kind of embarrassment can only be solved by punishment of alcohol. )
However, "If there is no news/such as after a shipwreck/quiet sea/in fact, it is also/quietly remember". It was left in an inconspicuous corner of memory by me (and my sister), and it was found out by chance for more than 20 years, until 10 days ago.
My friend xl answered the question by name and clicked on me. There was a question: "Favorite movie", I answered without hesitation: "A very old Soviet film about a group of friends sending off to the plane. I got drunk. Those who should have boarded the plane didn't get on it, and those who shouldn't have been sent on it. In another city, the street, house, house number, and key are all the same, so he entered his'own home' with a woman in it, which triggered a bunch of funny things-who told me about this film The name? I have been chanting for many years." The hippo boss gave me the correct answer: It's Ryazanov's "A Trick of Fate", which is on sale in Dangdang. I ordered the DVD and watched it overnight as soon as the goods arrived. I don't know how to thank these two, at least I have to remember their names. : P
Proust wrote at the end of the first part of "Reminiscence of the Water Years" "On the Swan House": "The recollection of a certain image is nothing but regret for a certain moment; and the house , Roads, streets, alas! They are as perishable as the years!”
Therefore, this article is not a film review, it is more about memory, let me take this to look back at the time I was there and long gone. The old movie stays quietly on the newly bought discs, and the streets of the houses and the pair of brothers and sisters at first glance are no longer what they looked like at the time.
That was the early 1980s. Compared with today, the material was scarce and the information we could receive was not much. We are growing up eagerly yearning for all new things. According to my sister's estimation, the time the film was broadcast on TV was around the time when Weng Meiling's version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was screened. At that time, my color TV (16-inch? 18-inch?) was still a rarity, and many of my classmates had just watched black-and-white TV. The old house we live in naturally does not have elevators. The entire Xiamen elevators are probably only found in a few buildings, and they are all hotels, office buildings, etc. There are definitely no apartments with elevators. Xiamen had its first taxi in 1983, and the airport was built in October of the same year. This film shows us brothers and sisters living in an apartment with elevator, taking a taxi to the airport, flying to the airport, and drinking champagne in a goblet during New Year’s dinner. It makes us amazed. This is the true view of the two children. Film feeling. As for the absurd four-corner love in the film, it may not be our concern; but we remember that the heroine is beautiful and there are vicissitudes of life between her eyes.
Copy the brief introduction: On New Year's Eve, Yevgeny Lukashin, a surgeon who lives in Moscow, was drunk with a few friends on the eve of his wedding, and Lukashin got on the wrong plane to Leningrad in confusion. When the plane arrived, the taxi driver drove him to a building with the same name and number on the same street as Moscow. Lukashin went up the stairs, found the same door number, unlocked the door, and fell asleep on the bed. When the host Najia came back, he couldn't help being taken aback. After a dispute, he finally clarified the misunderstanding, but Najia's boyfriend and Lukashin's girlfriend finally left because of this incident. So the hero and heroine who came across by mistake will have a lover and finally get married.
The film lasted more than three hours, and it seemed to be broadcast in two parts, according to the practice at that time. Maybe I just watched the next episode a week later. In the past, it was not called an "indoor drama". In fact, the plot of the film is basically opened indoors (mainly in the female protagonist’s boudoir); the film is like a movie version of a drama, knocking on the door again and again brings the plot again and again. , It also brings each character's different dialogues and funny gimmicks, as well as a beautiful guitar singing and singing by the hero and heroine. Fate has teased two pairs of men and women, but we only expect that the hero’s fiancé will disappear automatically, and the heroine’s fiancé will stop messing around and get out early (and he came back again when he was drunk, and said goodbye after he "showed" in the bathroom and clothes. Exiting, drenched in the snow fluttering on the "frozen road" on New Year's Eve, we don't care). When I rewatched it, I thought about this. When we were young, we only cared about the protagonist, because we thought we would be the undisputed protagonist, "the world belongs to us". When we grow up, maybe we are the ones that the audience is looking forward to or even coaxing to get out. What's more, we don't even have an audience at all, we've always been an audience-but it doesn't seem to be too serious?
Last night, I prepared drinks, snacks and fruits, and this movie took more than two o’clock. During the period, I paused to urinate twice. I looked out from the bathroom. There were some windows in the building outside with lights on, but there were no apartment buildings at the beginning and the end of the movie. So many in close-up shots. When I watched the movie, I seemed to have seen the brother and sister from the past. They still don't understand the love in the movie, they have never seen a snowy winter, they have never been in a plane, and they have never drunk champagne. They stared at the TV and laughed from time to time, not knowing how fate would tease them.
Fate will tease everyone, even the audience.
At the corner of the years, we may reunite with an old movie that we have seen years ago with no name, maybe not.
Maybe it's not just an old movie, but someone who can't be named.
Long time no see each other.
Hi.
goodbye.
