I really regret not watching it sooner! Idealist's favorite of the year! Raising his arms and shouting Uncle V's face is a treasure in the world! Human treasure! The photography is beautiful, the soundtrack is whiny, the rhythm is comfortable, and the little actors are smart and cute! Conflicts and contradictions are also set very reasonably, the plot is smooth, and a work with a high degree of completion! All in all, it's worth seeing, it's worth seeing!
At the beginning of the film, although the filming techniques and plot presentation appeared to be free and lively, it has been very depressed since the news of her mother's death. Attending the funeral is also the main line of the whole film, which established the slightly depressed and heavy tone of the film. If this kind of subject matter is planted in the hands of a sick and wretched person like me (and some x directors), it is nothing more than starting with black humor/sarcasm, and writing a vigorous and indecent exposing the ugly (mis)realism of capitalism Song of mockery. What is surprising is that this film was made by a director who believes in truth, goodness and beauty to be extremely advanced. As the "Utopia" and modern society continue to collide, and based on these conflicts, the director not only does "mockery" some aspects of modern life, but also objectively and crudely shows the unsatisfactory nature of the "Utopia" place. And the film also ends with a compromise between two ways of life - the Utopia stole back the souls of the deceased subjects and restored her freedom in her own way; while the children also opened up the gap in their own world and raised a little bit of the outside world. Light.
The most noteworthy thing is that this film creates a natural and casual style. Shooting is simple, but everything is presented strangely and richly. Sunlight, river water, forest, RV, church, cemetery, children's hair and Uncle V's eyes, every frame has infinite emotions, and every shot is a beautiful mess. And the soundtrack is so loud that it swallows people, it's fuzzy and comfortable, like the wind that blows (mistakenly) blindly because of its good looks and gentleness.
Speaking of Uncle V, his acting skills this time are really nothing! Can! pick! Tick! (There may be flaws, but I immediately surrendered when I saw his eyes! It's not that his style of acting is so suitable for this film, so even the flaws are an assist!) Every time I look at my lover's phantom/photo His eyes were warm and gentle, and the speech in the church was also very good! Not to mention the confession at the final funeral, which is so affectionate that I have no turning back. Let me die (x) The children did a good job, and the director gave the camera a particularly beautiful shot (such as the youngest child in the car). That sudden I miss mom, the main camera shot into the corner of the eye, is really very heart-wrenching), the sad but free atmosphere is well created.
As for the plot, I just couldn't like it any more. Nostalgia is not suitable for any language, it is enough to have eyebrows, eyes, corners of mouth, ideals and dreams. I like this kind of freedom, be honest with each other, and have no burdens. The fire at the end and the singing and dancing were so beautiful that I burst into tears, reminding me of the equally moving "What We Did During the Holidays", I believe that my mother really gained eternal life. It's a pity that the ending is cliché, and it is still a compromise to mediocrity, even if it is more reasonable. The ideal is not thorough enough, and it is inevitable that I am a little disappointed. As for the rhythm, it's amazing that if I put it in other movies, I might feel like dragging it, but for this one, it fits perfectly with the style of the movie, which is reassuring.
The values of the film, I believe that if you watch it with an acceptance and tolerance mentality, and try to understand those who grew up in an unusual way of life, you will definitely have a better understanding than to struggle with the contradictions between them and secular morals.
Freedom is a change of bones, with rebirth as a heavy price. You escape from the fireworks, she resigns from the world, they pursue, think, and fight in the wind and fire. I can't say it's a very good work, but to me it's very, very appetizing, transcendental, reminds me of brown late autumn and eternal streams. So I cried from beginning to end, for a lot of sunshine, for Uncle V's eyes, for freedom, and for life.
PS. Uncle is singing again?
