There is no idealism, no hero mythology, this movie is about how we pay for our youth and ignorance. Once upon a time, we liked the heroic protagonist who could make people feel substituting, and we liked success stories. As I grew older and tasted some of the bitterness and helplessness of life, I began to like the kind of movie that tells stories not for the sake of storytelling, not for making movies or making movies, but for cutting the reality into a movie. I no longer have the expectation of harvesting two hours of hormonal stimulation. I prefer slow-paced movies. I want to have more experience of life and more understanding and tolerance for different people and things during the process of watching movies. .
The story of realism implies a sense of reality. Many of its details are in line with common sense and worthy of scrutiny. All its accidents have a sense of necessity and fate. It is not overhead, it grows under a specific historical background and social environment. Without understanding or not caring about history and society, it is difficult to understand the connotation conveyed by this movie. Realism makes people feel that the movie has actually happened, so it has a special stamina. It makes people think about what happened in the movie as if they actually happened in their own lives.
After watching it for a week, I still think of the bloody scenes in the movie from time to time, and what constitutes a huge tension with these are the poetic shots. Violence and aesthetics constitute elements in the movie without any violation. I like the white space and layering of movies. From the lens language to the narrative angle to the movie theme, there is a lot of room for thinking and expansion. Implying but not expressing, stating but not lyrical, not imposing a single value, acknowledging the complexity of reality, and not giving up aesthetic expression, integrating literary creation methods and techniques, grasping the narrative rhythm and the audience's psychology, and telling a heavy speech History and a realistic story.
