Wenders's work "Don't Knock on the Door", the plot is simple and gentle.
It seems that there are no big ups and downs, but it is very fascinating.
Light and shadow, lens, music, everything is carefully designed.
The colors are bright and the rhythm is comfortable. Suspense is wonderful, lyrical sad.
The leading actor, Sharp, played the star Howard Spencer, and still drank, drugged, and had a bad life in his sixtieth year.
One early morning when shooting a new film, he quietly left the crew on a horse, like an unqualified cowboy.
He returned to his mother in his hometown, like a child who had taken refuge.
The mother told him that he had had a child. This news made a change in his life.
The son Earl was easily found, but as stubborn as he was when he was young, he refused to recognize the father.
The same will not express Holder's inability to do anything, but the appearance of the girl Siqi has given a bigger turn for the better.
This is a movie about "self-seeking".
A person who has been corroded into an empty shell by years has already formed a habit of life.
Even if you want to change, there will be fierce conflicts in your heart.
Because change will bring risks and increase new desires.
The only thing we can't beat is our own heart.
Howard is always playing the "Hero of the West".
To be a lonely hero, you can use horses and spurs, but you must also face loneliness.
Howard has been leaving all his life. Leave home, leave the woman who loves him, leave the fear inside.
He finally found that it was not difficult to face himself.
Sometimes, it only takes one turn, or one bow.
When you decide that a person is far away from you, maybe, you beckon, put on a hug, and he will come to you.
Howard drove his father's car to find his children, to find the love and frivolousness of his youth.
This car finally carried the grandchildren on a journey to find their father.
Because Howard had to leave, he still had the scene on set to finish.
This is his responsibility.
This hero is no longer rebellious, but has returned to a whole family.
The director did not deliberately sensationalize, and did not use too much pen and ink to show everyone's heart.
This concise but not simple story, like a reminder, makes us think about it and makes us sober.
Don't knock on the door, because one day we will all go home.
So, don't lose it easily.
