Flower of innocence

I


haven't written a diary for almost three months on March 22, 2005 . On duty last night, watching the former Soviet film "Song of the Soldiers", a 1959 film. If it weren't for this film, I might still not open this book today. Because it is so good, I can't bear not to write down a sum.


The 19-year-old correspondent Alyosha was commended by the general for destroying two tanks, but he refused the honor and asked to go home to see his mother. Because he was so hasty when he left, he didn't have time to say goodbye to his mother. Her mother wrote that the roof of the house was leaking rain, and he wanted to go home to help his mother repair the roof. The general gave the child six days off, two days to drive home, two days to drive back to the troops, and two days to repair the roof.


Alyosha is so innocent and enthusiastic. An unknown soldier learned that he would change cars in his town on his return journey, so he asked him to bring his wife two bars of soap and told his wife that he was alive. Alyosha agreed without hesitation; one broke his leg. Because of his low self-esteem, Alyosha did not want to return to his young wife. Alyosha silently accompanied him, so he missed the train... From


an ideological point of view, Alyosha deserves to be a model of communism. . Although I have never cared about this, I have to admit that only in that era did the noble quality appear natural and praised, unlike now, noble will be called a fool by some people!


However, the previous short stories are not enough to show the excellence of this film. The real story begins with the appearance of that girl. Shura. When she yelled "mama" in horror, I couldn't help laughing. What a natural performance, just like a little country girl! In fact, it's not the country, but that kind of innocence can only come from a girl who hasn't been harmed by the world.


Look at the expression on the corners of her mouth, from panic to hesitation, from fear to joy, there are many mentalities that are simply incomprehensible, anger? Feel sorry? The girl's duplicity? offend? shy? Little joy? At first it was the cloud covering the mist, and then the cloud opened and the mist dispersed, the sun suddenly illuminated the heart, and the love bloomed on the face!


Always remember that shot, Alyosha asked her to put on her military coat so that they could climb onto the military train. She wrapped her military coat around her body, and the face under the military cap was pretty flowery. Only those in love will have such joy! Alyosha was holding her hand, and she was dragged and swayed from behind, as if dancing. Which girl doesn't want to be held by her lover like this! They climbed into the car, but the corner of her coat was stepped on by someone else. At that moment, she sounded like a child. In front of our lover, we are all beloved and coquettish children. God, have I ever seen such a lens! And the moment they stood in the carriage, their eyes facing each other, what a pure child. So the hearts of joy, cup overflow pan children, between the moment they did not know what to do, really "can not be said, can not be said ......"


All performances are so posts skin, life bit by bit, in full compliance with a The throbbing of a simple heart. Unlike the current movies, which are all carved in a mold, joy and sorrow seem to be the needs of the plot, unlike the heroism of Hollywood's vanity and arrogance, and not like their arbitrary and convenient love.


Alyosha got off the train to fetch water, but then the train drove away. In the heavy rain, he stopped a car to chase the train. The woman driving hasn't closed her eyes for two days, the road is so muddy... Stanislavsky's performance, the essence of realism. Only those who are traveling can experience the true taste of it. The beautiful feeling that bloomed in that moment, can we only hold it tightly in the memory? It’s hard work, life is sea, do we have a chance to keep it, don’t miss it? When Shura shouted "Alyosha" on the bridge, our hearts finally relieved, but the feeling of worry still exists, because of the war, because we know that Alyosha will never be with Shura. The simple melody reverberates over and over again, and it is extremely beautiful, but it is destined to disappear.


There are also Alyosha and his mother, and many more...


really, only a young heart can make such a film, just following the heart's throbbing.


Good movies are like air, let us breathe freely!

    My heart twitched at the thought that every soldier who died on the battlefield was Alyosha...

    The best war I've seen so far Freehand so pure that no one can reach it. Suffering sometimes represents special and beautiful moments that will never be experienced again. These are actually the hard way to reach a standard close to perfection. Cherish all the experiences you have never had. Lost sadness or happiness or everything is the best arrangement
