I have heard about Abbas for a long time, this is his first film I bought. I didn't read the introduction beforehand, so I didn't know what the bright-eyed middle-aged man driving the car was looking for.

I finally understood that he was looking for someone who would bury him at dawn. He spoke plainly, but he was serious. Xiao Bing was so frightened that he ran away.

An old man in the museum, so calm, told him:
"Thirty years ago, I also planned to commit suicide. At that time, I was just married, and everything went wrong. In a dark night, I left my wife, and I drove my car to kill myself. A rope. I came under a tree and wanted to throw the rope on the tree, I tried again and again and couldn't get the rope, so I climbed up the tree and tied the rope tightly, my My hand touched something soft - cherries, cherries so sweet to the heart. I ate one, and it was so meaty and juicy that I couldn't help eating one after another, and suddenly I noticed that the sun was rising slowly from the top of the mountain. Qi: The sun is beautiful and picturesque, and the whole cherry orchard is dazzling. At this time, I saw a group of children going to school, they stopped under the tree and looked at me, and told me to shake the tree hard, the cherries fell to the ground On the ground, they picked them up to eat. I was very happy..."

Finally, he chased back, found the old man, and said to him
: "Two dollars is not enough, I will bring three dollars."
"Please don't forget to shake me. , maybe I just fell asleep..."
I laughed.

The director is good at using long shots, soothing and calm. Be patient. It's best seen at night with nothing to do. This idea is an excellent idea. If I have the opportunity, I will also dig such a hole.

Lying in the hole under the tree, the night was so quiet, the stars were on the top, the insects were humming, the leaves were falling, and the ants were crawling in. Earthy aroma, moist maybe warm. And tomorrow morning, there will be an old man with three stones to pull you up. This is the moment to enjoy the greatest happiness in life. After dawn, it is a new beginning, 1,2,3,4!

    I really can't see what's good. The fifth edition of Abbas's Palme d'Or has fallen short of standards. Whether it's Abbas's cherries or Imamura's eels, they are all mediocre works. Therefore, rather than awarding these two films alone, it is better to award the previous achievements and bonuses of these two directors. At the end, there is a scene of Abbas filming. The theme of Abbas' films has always been to blur the boundaries between the real and the fiction of the film.

    "Survivor" is about driving down the road in search of earthquake survivors. The Taste of Cherry is a man who drives down the road seeking to bury himself. It is as simple as only one person, one car and one mountain road. They have no answer in the end, whether to live or die.
