One of my favorite things to do since I was a child is to recline on the bed in the bedroom of Gan Jiakou's home and watch the canopy sway outside. It takes a lot of hard work to see a whole piece of sky, most of the time I can only look for dots of blue in the crevices of the trees. I know that if you open the window, the branches will pestle into the house. When I grew up, I never lived in a house so close to a tree.
Later, in January 2004, I was in the hospital for three weeks. On the 29th year of the new year, my whole left leg was put in a cast and was taken home by my uncle from the hospital for the Chinese New Year. On the road, I lay on the back seat, watching the sky flying quickly outside the window, the branches of the trees, the concrete of the Second Ring Road Bridge, and the gray corners of the building. Then my uncle huffed me up to the fourth floor and threw me onto my bed. I looked out, of course there were no leaves, only black-gray branches, barely swaying in the wind, and lightly patted on the window lattice.
They are saying hi to me.
Originally, the first thing Jack woke up every day was to say hello to his wardrobe, toilet, sink, table and chairs. The wardrobe is light blue with shutters. The toilet is a bit dirty and the sink is a bit pink. He looked up and saw a window. He knew that it was skylight, the universe outside, and heaven outside.
Then Jack walked out, wrapped in the carpet motionlessly, looking at the light. Yes, the light blue sky, the dark shadows that dangle from time to time, he didn't know that it was a branch. He didn't know that there were fallen leaves all over the ground, golden yellow. Later, he fell on the concrete road, gray, and fell onto the wet mud. The sky started to rain, ticking, and he felt a dead leaf, knowing it was cold.
The real world. Moving away from him and approaching.
Since Jack started to play Lego silently, I understand that he is really willing to touch the world's flesh. Not the new world he saw, but the whole world. I started crying at this moment.
How did we forget? In the beginning, how did we perceive the world. How do I fall in love with the color of the sky, whether it is gray or blue, the sound of the sea, whether it is roaring or calm, falling in love with the shaky shadows of the trees, falling in love with the wasteland and indifferent weeds. Before all this, we love the tables, chairs and benches where we get along day and night, and the closet that is always silent. I love the coldness of the toilet, the dusty table legs, the squeaky cabinet, and my own bed. The smell that you can't smell, the dust flying in the air.
I love the most common shapes, the faded colors, and the furniture that shrinks as time goes by without moving. We slowly become people by loving these.
I slowly became a person by loving these.
I didn't know it was love at the time, because I hadn't decided what love was like yet. But I later decided that it was love, because I knew they were part of my body. I know that when I am afraid of the new world, timid and useless, they are there. Say hi with them when I come back.
Before we have grown up, before we understand the world. We can already decide that we must learn to accept ourselves.
"Sometimes I miss it."
"Is
n't it very small?" "It's not. The room extends to all sides, and it's endless."
There hasn't been a movie ending like Room for about two years. , I can't stop crying. I did not expect that very important thing, we kept it deep in our hearts, very private, unclear to anyone, but it was the simplest affection, so it was remembered by the director and kept, no Was wiped out by the haze of the story itself. Wardrobe, table, toilet, sink. The story is over, they are still there, they are all fallen to the ground, and their alive breath is deprived. But the memory was heavy on them, silent and shocking. Before being leveled by the bulldozer, the director showed us these, without judgment, no judgment. The music sounded at this time, like a door finally opened. The part of life in us leaned forward and fell gently. If you go to the original soundtrack later, you will know that it is called new end.
Jack said, Mom, say goodbye to room. I thought, she would say or not, she would be anxious or sad, but she looked towards the walls with her lips floating.
[bye room]
This is the bravest movie I have ever seen.
