Well, I have to admit, I became obsessed with Iranian movies, and since then, many Hollywood movies have lost their charm and feel in my eyes.
In this era when Western values are rampant all over the world, we seem to be accustomed to the pictures brought to us by American film and television dramas, beautiful heroines, sexy and plump, and there must be one or two naked scenes; Kong Wuli, handsome and tall male protagonist , will also have an exciting love with the heroine, the excitement must be sensual, and it is common for men and women to kiss and gasp on the screen. It seems that if it is not like this, it is not called love. force. This is the visual enjoyment that American movies give us, the naked simplicity and directness, the deep and shallow love. So, it's hard to find an American movie or TV show that doesn't have porn scenes. We are also used to being attracted to them, and the most primitive desires are also the easiest things.
Yes, we seem to have forgotten what "the beginning of love" is, and it is difficult to understand "love in love, only in etiquette", the kind of "Plato" type of the most beautiful relationship, love that is willing to give everything for the other party, in this era It's almost a joke. So, Barron taught us what true love is, without holding hands, without hugging, excluding any physical contact, not even a word of conversation, just because in a split second I saw the back of the girl combing her hair in the small window, that The love in my heart was ignited, so I did everything I could to protect her, worry about her life, and give everything I had to silently dedicate, even if the girl didn't know it, "As long as you live well, come to me. Say, that's enough!" I thought, the boy who was as impulsive as a cockfight, became quiet when love came, and became so selfless.
How can Hollywood capture such subtle and simple feelings? A society that is accustomed to high technology and a developed commercial economy thinks that they have the first civilization, but the culture itself has nothing to do with all this. The beauty of human nature requires a simple heart and simple feelings. I can't help but regret that I spent so much time chasing American dramas and watching movies that impacted my senses. It was a terrible loss of my body and mind. What you get is a deeper emptiness and a superficial understanding.
The girls in Majidi's films are so pure and beautiful, as if they are free from all vulgarity. The delicate face of that poor Afghan girl is reminiscent. I don't remember her speaking, it seems that she never said a word from beginning to end. , but the eyes without a trace of impurities, the cleanliness it brings to people, is enough to use.
The little hairpin on the girl's head, pinned on the hat by the boy, and the cute little shoe print at the end, Machidi's films often have these small objects as a bedding or foil. It is reminiscent of the hairpin on grandma's chest in "The Color of Heaven" falling into the muddy water; in "The Sparrow's Holiday" goldfish covered the ground, these simple and effortless little details bring endless shock to people's soul and artistic appeal So wonderful, it has nothing to do with big production and high investment.
Writing this, I can't help but pay tribute to those Iranian filmmakers again. In a country that has been turbulent for many years, poor and uneasy, and full of suffering, they have made such a powerful film, which refreshed our understanding of that land and that country. know.
