Jia Zhangke is not good at filming rivers and lakes, what he shoots is love.
It all starts from the Motorola V8088 in Qiaoqiao's hands.
The standard configuration of the county eldest sister was the Motorola 338C color shell at first, and later evolved to V998, V8088 and Nokia 8210. As the eldest woman, Qiaoqiao certainly has one, sits in Santana, dances the national standard dance, takes the big brother, and draws five-five-five. This is Jia Zhangke's imagination of the county-level rivers and lakes in the early Middle Ages.
He spent a lot of effort to restore all of this. He paid attention to all details. After the completion, it was like an exquisite cosplay. From the leading role to the supporting role, everyone was stiff and stiff, and there was no way to restore this scene, although it was only ten years ago. Eight years, but in the last century, everything has been blurred, let alone depicting the rivers and lakes they imagined?
Jia Zhangke is not good at filming rivers and lakes, what he shoots is love.
A pair of lovers who were once radiant, had an accident at the most beautiful apex of their lives, lost their freedom respectively, and after returning to the real society, their love collapsed because of reality, and they lived thousands of miles apart. After a few years, the down-and-down man returned to the woman, because he believed that only she could accommodate him and would not laugh at him. The two returned to the starting point, but they couldn't go back to the past, and everything could not go back to the past. This world has changed. .
Is there love between them? Maybe it exists... it should exist, right?
In fact, what does it matter if there is love? The other party is already an inseparable part of one's life, and it is already a habitual existence. Even if the two of them were once separated by thousands of miles in the torrent of reality, even if they were sad or sorry, so what? All unhappiness or tears melt like ice and snow, even in such a cold wind, it can nourish you.
Just eat and live like this, as long as you can adapt to it, the scene looks familiar, but everything has changed, and there is no chance to repeat that love in the rivers and lakes.
The switch between the three different eras is accompanied by different means of transportation, from the county bus, to the green-skin train, to the high-speed rail. Like our era of speeding up, from Motorola to Huawei, everything yesterday quickly became history. , and become a meager impression in the mind, a very distant past, the vivid memory imprints have faded, and then no one remembers it again.
For example, Android has only been around for ten years, and it feels like an entire century.
Zhao Tao is a qualified actor, and she is the only one who can act in this film. She is not to blame for the rigidity and jerkyness of her youth, which is the director's problem. Forbearance, expectation and timidity for a better future, she has love in her heart, she went to Chongqing because of love and future, but also left Chongqing because of love and disappointment, she dares to love, not hate, dare to give everything, and in When disappointed, she will not complain that the world is not worth it, she will only endure it silently. She can pick up the teapot and smash the head of the bastard who insulted her man, express her attitude with violence, and silently watch the man leave.
You come or go, I am here, I am me, you are you. Facing and accepting all of this calmly, the blood and tears in life have become far away, but when you come, I will support you. This may be affection, maybe love, who knows?
If I were to tell this story, Bin Bin finally made a fortune in Chongqing, took all the property of the Lin family into his arms, and returned to Shanxi in a glorious way. The younger brothers all came to accompany the elder brother to drink and have fun, and they were drunk and dazzled. And Qiaoqiao is still the eldest sister, still single, but there is a younger brother who lives together to resist the physical loneliness and the unease of the night. The two met in the mahjong hall and nodded, like old friends for many years, and like familiar strangers, and they never met again.
Two months later, Binbin died of advanced liver cancer and died in the hospital.
Of course, this story belongs to Jia Zhangke, who tells his own story in his own universe, and everyone else is just an audience.
Sit on both sides of love and watch the passage of youth.
again:
1. The best Jianghu film in China is, of course, Erlonghu, shot by Siping Youth Hao Ge.
2. Cohiba in 2001, the cigarette label is not like this. It is estimated that Jia Zhangke cannot find the old standard.
