Song Lian, in that era, was already regarded as a brave and strong woman, there was something very hard about her, and this lush vitality was evident in Gong Li's stubborn eyes at the beginning. But what's the use of this? How can she win a life of cruelty and nonsense?
She also imagined a bright and different future in the book, she also thought that she would dominate her life, she also had love, but all this became a joke in front of fate. I say fate because I don't believe in fate, because I don't know what else is strong enough to take this sin.
She hid a flute at the bottom of the box, and when she picked it up, Song Lian's face was full of sadness and happiness. In the darkness where the big red lanterns can't shine, a little light is always needed to see the little warmth left in my heart. However, even this humble comfort, she could not have. The master set the flute on fire, Song Lian was speechless and wept...
Song Lian was stubborn, proud and unyielding, and many times, I almost overlapped Gong Li and Song Lian. The movie doesn't give any account of Song Lian's past, it just says, "I went to college for half a year..." But everything is written on Song Lian's cold and stubborn face. I like this kind of woman. Life hits you hard. You stare back fiercely, raise your head and continue to live. If you don't accept your fate, you just don't accept your fate.
Love, Songlian has also looked for it, that "Flying Po", eager to write on her face, if Fei Po gave her a hug at that time, maybe everything would be different? Then she won't be left with nothing. 20th birthday, drunk alone. How bleak this is for a beautiful woman. In fact, I have been thinking that Fei Po's "lie" is not a lie. Maybe he wanted to give Song Lian some real warmth? If it is not meaningful, how can it be sent so easily? In the end, Songlian was making a drink in the house, Feipu looked inside, and then turned to leave. We all know that not all love stories have a brave hero.
Song Lian had no intention of really hurting anyone, but both women died because of her. What a dark humour to live here.
The movie never gave the master a positive shot. In a sense, he caused the tragedy of Song Lian, Yan'er, and the third wife, but in fact, if you think about it carefully, what does this have to do with him? He is just a normal, normal man who treats women as clothes as playthings as tools. He is just like the Taoist Wang in "Mogao Grottoes". He is too humble. He just felt ridiculous.
"Master" is just a background, providing a reason to fight. Speaking of scrambles, I asked myself, what if I were Songlian? I think, like Songlian, I will compete for favor. This has nothing to do with the favored favor, nothing to do with vanity and jealousy, but only about self-esteem. People, always need a little meaning in life, and always need some things to prove their existence. Not willing to be left out, not willing to be defeated, so the intrigue and jealousy of those wives, concubines and concubines can be understood. But, isn't this another tragedy?
Let's talk about the people inside, the second wife laughed so much at first, even I was deceived by her, but there were groups of snakes and scorpions in my heart. A woman, a woman, is really a terrible animal. There is a knife and a honey belly sword hidden in the smile. Such women, the Buddha blesses them, do not let them appear in my life. The arrogant and domineering third wife said to Songlian, "I know I'm not her opponent, I think, maybe you can fight her?" And the second wife who laughs last, is really the final winner? The third wife died as she wished, and the young and beautiful fourth wife went crazy. However, she forgot that even if the beautiful third wife died and the young fourth wife went crazy, there would still be a younger fifth wife and a more beautiful sixth wife. In the face of fate and life, who can win? ?
and then third wife, beautiful actors, she said in a turret Songlian, "who is not in a show of it? do good to deceive others, then do it badly fool yourself, then you can not cheat Ghost." She has a beautiful voice and figure, and it may have had beautiful dreams in the past. But in the day-to-day intrigue, she has long been used to "being like a cat and a dog is not like a human life." In the end, she was hanged in the dead man's house because of Dr. He Gao's adultery... Actually, I am happy for her With Dr. Gao, in the high-walled compound, the lonely woman's warmth must find an outlet. At least, this can also give some fresh color to the lifeless life.
And Yan'er, stubbornly dreaming of a wife. This is not a disgusting character, in fact, the indifference of her heart and eyes makes me feel a little desolate sympathy. I don't believe that she really loves any lord, she is just trying to change her life and try to fight against fate? At this point, she is no different from Songlian. Kneeling in front of the ashes burned by the red lanterns, the wild geese in the snow moved me.
Snow, so quiet, the yard is quiet and gloomy. Those black tiles and upturned corners have buried the youth and dreams of many people, but at that time, how many people knew about youth dreams. In the mournful music at the end, I remembered the two words the eldest wife said when she first saw Songlian, "sin". Sin, these two words footnote the whole film. Whose fault is it all? Whose past? Is it the "old cannibalistic society"? Is it a rotten idea of male superiority?
Now, we no longer have to be forced to be concubines for others, we can study, we can choose our own love, and we can get along with men as equals, but why do we still feel unhappy? Why do tragedies still happen from time to time? I don't know.
Perhaps we are also kidnapped by the age by the basic fact that we are human by birth.
The "Master" we marry is the social reality, material needs, various responsibilities we shoulder, and what is called our personal dream. In our beautiful years, we were promised these things. Since then, we have fought openly and secretly with those "wives" who sold themselves to reality...
We are all a group of concubines, in front of life.
