I read a reporter's interview with Lin Huaimin. When talking about his insights into each new work of 'Cloud Gate Dance Collection', he said: I want dancers to dance freely, and their intuition about the body is what I want to achieve Effect. For a layman like me, my understanding may be superficial, to the effect that the master does not want dance to be just a show of body and performance, but hopes that dancers can achieve a so-called freedom and liberation of the body. There is a similar situation at the beginning of the film "The Officer and the Boy". Jeroen, who has become a world-class dance master, is struggling for a new dance. Not only did the dancers not open their limbs, but Jeroen himself , can not free their own soul. In almost all the films about World War II, killing, despair and redemption have become an eternal proposition, and the film always solidifies it into a kind of pain and flashback to deepen the heavy impact on us. "The Officer and the Boy" didn't do that. In the film, Jeroen was sent by his mother to a small fishing village by the sea. In that era of turmoil, starting from war-torn Amsterdam, there was nothing to avoid the Nazis' pursuit and interception along the way, even saying It seems hypocritical to be displaced, and the only twist is probably sitting in a big truck and being asked to check documents when crossing the border. On another, it was quite thrilling, when two German soldiers fleeing in a hurry 'requisitioned' the bicycles of Jeroen and his partner, by the way, in the reeds, they also raised guns at the two children. However, in the end, this part seems to be a comedy, and it can only be regarded as a small episode with little danger. This film does not pay attention to any combination of rhythm and speed. From the beginning to the end, it tells us all about it, and it takes us to slowly recall the childhood growth of Jeroen. It is neither bitter nor bitter, a bit like the local Dutch The spinning windmill calmly finished a story that was only a little melancholy at the end. We understand that Jeroen lives a Puritan-like life in this small fishing village in order to be able to 'eat enough'. The only bright things in life are probably helping his adoptive father deliver calves, or discovering something in the sea like an adventure. Wreck of the plane. The first half of the film is so peaceful and desolate, as if Jeroen himself is leaving the rest of his life blank, until Jeroen meets the Canadian officer Walter. If we delve into that history, we can even frame this encounter as a day in May 1945, the day Canadian troops drove out the Nazis and liberated the Netherlands. The small fishing village that had been dull for many days suddenly ushered in the party and dance of the soldiers, showing a lot of vitality at once. Jeroen also drank the first Coke in his life, and for the first time undid the bondage and twisted up. Body, dance, let this dull, melancholy and somewhat autistic little boy experience the freedom and comfort from the heart for the first time. Then there is the meeting dance between the officer and the boy, the turning point of the whole film. After the performance, the chairs were arranged in an alley, as if standing at the two ends of the T-stage, only a beam of blue light shot in from the back, the whole picture was filled with a tranquil and jumping atmosphere, Waltra was turning around with Geron's hand, In the circle of rotation, Jeroen laughed unbridled for the first time. In this dance of body rotation, Jeroen found the games and joy that belonged to his childhood. After that, Walter was so excited that he threw Jeroen into the air, and then caught him tightly. A strong sense of security instantly filled Jeroen's body. Some people may say that this perfect dance section is a bit ambiguous, well, what's the matter with the ambiguous? Because at this moment, Jeroen at least felt the warmth, this is the turning point in this little boy's life, just like each of us has a turning point in our own life, but many times, we wake up later. Walter later said he cared so much for the gloomy little boy because he looked 'special'. During their relationship, Walter spoke English and Geronne spoke Dutch. Most of the time, Walter rambled and talked to himself, but during this period, the expression and tone of his speech made Geronne again Feel safe, like the time Walter threw him in the air and caught him firmly. There is also a chase scene about 'Jeep'. The whole process is smooth and without language. The two men have no dialogue and no cowardly attitude. It is like the temptation of a pair of lovers. There is a natural trust in the lover. When the officer's chocolate When thrown into Jeroen's mouth, what we see is that this friendship is doomed. Walter's care for the little boy is full of tender care from beginning to end. The connection between them is not just a dance, a chocolate toss, an experience of learning to drive, or a patchwork. Walter used his man's generous heart to hold up an umbrella of love for Jeroen, who was far away from home and his mother. He taught Geron to be genuine with everyone around him, he taught Geron to be grateful for all the good things in life, Geron imitated him, when Walter fell asleep, he secretly Going to the mirror, combing a hairstyle exactly like the officer's, the officer's masculinity has become a model for Geron to imitate, and Geron has already decided to be a man like Walter. This is a salute of growth, the precious thing is that there was no beating, no fear, no Chaos, no tyranny, everything just happens naturally, proceeding and advancing in an extremely warm way. The mysterious part of this film is self-evident, although the whole film has a smooth whiteness and lightness, but the 'same-sex' topic it explores is still looming. In the end, when Walter said goodbye, he chose to leave quietly. First, he understood that Jeroen could not understand at a young age. First, he felt that Jeroen's future life stage was still very broad. He used his own silent way to teach Jeroen What is Ron's responsibility and is responsible for the future of the person he loves, this is the answer given in the movie. In fact, there were signs before Walter left. Just when he took a family photo for the Geron family, he hung his military badge on the scarecrow behind Geron, and Geron secretly took a single of Walter. Photo, but this photo turned into pulp when washing clothes. Sorry? Of course. But most people are strangers to each other even if they are with each other all their lives. In contrast, some people only meet for a few days, but they miss each other for a lifetime. However, this answer was incomprehensible to a little boy in his teenage years. In addition to Walter's warm care for Jeroen in the film, the love of his adoptive father is as heavy as a mountain. The adoptive father gave the Ray-Ban glasses left by Walter to Jeron's mother. He knew that although he didn't say anything about the affectionate relationship between the boy and the officer, he always saw it. At the end of the film, the adoptive father is given a shot, and the setting sun passes through, making him seem to have the halo of a holy father. The liberation of freedom by dance, the liberation of soul by dance, all of which, Jeroen had a deep understanding of all these things in his childhood. Under the guidance of the same sex, he finally embarked on his own path. stage. Companions, in contrast, some people met each other for only a few days, but they missed each other for a lifetime.
