From the Hunger Games to Mockingjay, the film trilogy continues to expand the boundaries of the film’s expression in a progressive way. From the pressure of entering school, the adult world to the political situation, it almost describes what contemporary human beings have to face from adolescence to adulthood. everything of.
It is obviously a prejudice to criticize the simplicity and deprivation of this film, because simplicity and poverty must be a necessary process for the growth of adolescents. What is strange is that the post-80s group of your country who clearly should get more resonance from the film But it seems to turn a blind eye to the emotional communication of the film.
The experience of our generation is similar to the experience of the Burning Girl—the long-term poverty of material and spirit, the "hunger game" of entering higher schools, the ubiquitous school bullying, the constant separation, those who always hope for us Winning the game and successfully becoming a sophisticated "talent" adult...
Therefore, the second part of "The Hunger Games" is the best and the most touching one. The film shows an adolescence. The critical moment of the girl’s growth-she was reluctantly forced to use her skills in the adult world in order to survive and her family, facing an unfamiliar big city, various partners and opponents, elders, and this she both resisted and tried to join in. Keeping her distance and the complex posture of her heart-she has to learn to please everyone, but also try to keep her own way. And those adults have long been comfortable, or cynical-the consumer world seems to have only these two attitudes to life, there is no other way.
In "Mockingjay", the burning girl gradually became the spokesperson of the proletarian anti-antibody system-not because of her birth or resistance to will, but because of her truth-this can say "if we burn, you burn with "us" girls have always been loyal to their inner feelings and kindness, a natural sense of morality and sympathy for the weak, and their contempt for exploitation and luxury. This is our instinct, or at least it should be part of our instinct. Obviously, as a revolutionary, Katinss is not qualified. She is young, simple, easily excited, full of enthusiasm and the same fear; but this has become the place where everyone hopes and is willing to give her life for her because of her truth. And sincere. Although at the end of the trilogy and the novel, it describes an unrealistic ending that is obviously fairytale-like inaction (sadly, life has just begun in the 20s and cannot end...), but it also implies this. An ideal that even if he was the central figure of a revolution, a pure proletarian fighter still has the right and the ability to enjoy a more peaceful life, rather than gradually participating in political conspiracies or becoming radicalized.
For me, the "Hunger Games" series, especially the second episode, really touched me. In front of such a movie, as a barren small city, passing the exam and constantly walking into the big city, it eventually became a "beneficial country" pursuing material things. And enjoyment, a living citizen. Katinss at least reminds me of the nervousness and panic when I first saw the market, the kind of perplexity that still exists in the adult world, which is also the greatness of this youth movie-"The Hunger Games" is not that It’s a traditional way of describing the spirit of rebellion or the friendship between partners or the clichés that have been lost in adulthood. The core of the film is always the psychological relationship between a young person and the modern society and the adult world. This is a highly professional one. In an unfair society surrounded by material and contemporary media, the winner always wins without a bottom line; whether it is necessary to join the team of winners in life, "The Hunger Games" gives a simple and firm direction, even if we can’t Call it the Manifesto of the Contemporary Communist Party, but I think it is also the strongest expression of the atheist proletariat in contemporary popular culture. The mockingbird should cause more repercussions.
