It is clear that you want to cry, it is better to cooperate happily.

First of all, I declare that I have never brought a tissue to the cinema: it seems too pretentious and too deliberate; so when I watched the screening of the Tangshan earthquake, the tissue I was holding was the breeze from the screening business, and there was a pungent artificial fragrance. smell.

I vaguely thought about it, but couldn't believe it: I actually spent the next two hours with artificially scented paper towels for two hours of artificial tearing.

The few minutes before the film begins, drowsy, oppressive, seemingly indifferent but still belong to the gloomy days of the cruel summer of 1976. Fang Deng and Fang Da happily took six cents to buy sorbet. Fang Deng cried, and Fang Da turned around to look, ran over and pushed the big boy who was celebrating the victory staggered, and then called his younger brother: Run! The two children walked through the hall with ease, and ran home with the electric fan their father had just bought. There was a mother who was preparing dinner, and freshly washed tomatoes, which were sweet and fragrant.

I've shed tears basically from here on out: such a peaceful, happy family life that reminds us of the good days of summer when we were kids, but doomed to doom. ——They pretend not to know in the play, but we can't pretend not to know. A thousand and one repetitions of the old saying: Tragedy is the destruction of good things for you to see. Therefore, Feng Xiaogang, instead of the hand of God, must arrange such a scene of family life overflowing with family happiness and happiness, and then he will reach out in an orderly manner, overthrow and destroy.

What followed was a hot, late night. Young parents with children, still full of desire for each other's flesh, make out in the dark truck compartment. Mom said: On such a hot day, it is estimated that only the two of us in Tangshan would think of doing this! Dad said: It's hot and I can't sleep.

Yeah, how can it be so hot? Outside the truck, outside the windows of all the sleeping people, we saw the red sky created by computer stunts, and faintly, brewing disasters and storms. The ground is about to shake, and the two men and women who have become parents are still greedily demanding each other's bodies. A pair of young children fell asleep in the mosquito net, their young bodies curled up and slept peacefully. The little fish in the goldfish tank became uneasy and jumped out of the tank one after another. The signs were so small and so huge; so unexpected and so full of hints of fate. From the arrangement of these layouts alone, Feng Xiaogang is one of the most attentive directors in China. He is like a temporary god full of compassion, who is playing the chess piece in his hand step by step, something is destined to happen, but there is nothing he can do.

It happened. Actually more than 32 seconds, right? Falling down. The couple who were making out jumped out of the truck in panic, when the mother's heart-wrenching lungs rushed towards the small building where the two children were. —I think there is something a little wrong here, that they are going too slowly. And Da Qiang's push to prevent Yuan Ni from going in to save people was too decisive. When Da Qiang died, Yuan Ni seemed to have lost her backbone immediately. She had been digging up her husband in the ruins, but she completely forgot the children in the building. Time passed quickly, and the woman seemed to have fallen into a nightmare, ignorant and dazed, only remembering her dead husband, but forgetting that she was still a mother. Just because of this forgetfulness, I suddenly went out and realized that it was Xu Fan, not Li Yuanni. Her Tangshan dialect was learned later, not true, that's why she is so cute and sharp.
Compared with her performance, the little girl who was pressed under the ruined floor was unexpectedly moving. She stretched out her weak little hand and hit the slate one by one, telling the people above that she was still alive. But the person above is talking to her mother about the conditions: a prefabricated board holds two dolls, the son on the left and the daughter on the right, and one must die to pry it up. Which one to die?

In fact, from the very beginning, when my mother asked Fang Denbee and his younger brother to grab something to eat, we should have known that if we were faced with a choice, it must be: save our younger brother.
really. Li Yuanni cried first and said: Save both.
They said: Can't be saved! Make a quick decision or you'll all die!
Save both! God!
We walked.
Then... save my brother.

Li Yuanni's voice became very small at that moment. But no matter how small it is, it must be deafening to the little girl who is eager for every hope of survival under the prefabricated board. This is the most powerful trick of the Feng-style tear gas, right?
save brother.
The younger brother broke his hand, but survived. Li Yuanni cried sadly with her daughter in her arms. Don't worry about the dead, let's live first. people shouted. She could only keep her daughter beside her husband, and all the bodies were laid out in the open air. This is an earthquake, this is an earthquake. I burst out of tears and remembered what we know, Wenchuan in 2008.

Don't write anymore. It's too much to write again. Let's all go to the cinema. Even if it's a giant tear gas, this depressing, impetuous summer, when I can't afford a house and don't know where to go, maybe we just need a reason to cry, and by the way, we support the best one , Feng style domestic blockbuster.
