Lao Zhao helped arrange the girls' jobs because he pursued fat women, but I prefer to believe that their happy time after that has nothing to do with fat women. Several retired workers make beds together, "decorate", make fake money, and pretend to be uncles. Their busy chatter and discussion is the warmest part of the whole film. The girl lived a hard life with the fat woman, but she was still so stubborn and determined in her expression. When did the girl laugh, go to the massage room for the first time, eat popsicles for the first time, and eat with the "supervisor and deputy supervisor" for the first time. I like the episode that is clearly warm but burst into tears. The girl made money for the first time, and the two sat on the roadside and ate popsicles together. Lao Zhao told everyone on the street that the girl touched Lao Zhao's face and imagined his appearance. As for a group of retired workers, they have nothing. When they count more than 2,000 a month and 18w a year, they just want to give the girl hope and a short and happy time. They didn't know how long they needed to stay like that at the time, and they didn't know how long to cheat. Lao Zhao, will the tragic ending be a kind of "release"?
Zhang Yimou's vision, I can still see the shadow of the cold autumn in Dong Jie at that time, thin and even malnourished. But it is still a quiet lily, neither arrogant nor impetuous, quietly opening, quietly waiting for others to appreciate it. But he has the heroic spirit of a gentleman, is stubborn and kind, and does not admit defeat. Zhao Benshan is not suitable for this role, and there are those retired old people. Suddenly I want to mention Fu Biao, and I know him because he died a few years ago. He is the third most important character in this movie. I think he is the one who makes suggestions and ideas.
It was later discovered that this play was adapted from Mo Yan's novel, and the master became more and more humorous. In Mo Yan's eyes, Lao Zhao's life was miserable and kind, but sad, ordinary and hopeless. (Why do I suddenly remember Zhang Guoli's sigh). In Zhang Yimou's heart, it is his love and pity for Dong Jie. In order to give her hope and happiness, he "sacrificed" Lao Zhao's life and left us with a long sigh.
In my opinion, the happy time of Lao Zhao and the girl, to a certain extent, I think it is the happy time of all these retirees, just like the "happy time" hotel that never existed, it is still for everyone Brings hope and happiness from the bottom of my heart.
