Beijing, a city that was demonized by various film and television dramas in April, finally ushered in a relatively normal show at the end of April. There is no selling anxiety, no beautifying growth, no false feasting, and no hypocritical chicken soup for the soul. What is even more surprising is that these are filmed by a Taiwanese director, Rene Liu.
Although the male and female protagonists in "Later Us" are too poor, at least they live very real. Because of being too poor, friends joked that this should be a love story between Tiantongyuan and Huilongguan. Especially the house where the two lived, before the group rental was checked, it was everywhere. Even last year, the couple in my house were renting in a group. They looked at the door every day in the summer. Occasionally, when passing by, a otaku who wore Baihan Mountain would turn on a buzzing fan and pat the keyboard. I can hear it; there are still takeaways, one in blue and one in yellow, and two people from competing companies are under the same roof; there should be a couple who will put their finished shoes on the window sill in the corridor, a pair of Boys' sneakers, a pair of waitress-style black stilettos. Lin Jianqing and Fang Xiaoxiao will remind me that after the two of them have finished brushing their shoes, they should also put them in the corridor to dry. After all, their room has no windows.
In such a room where the lights are turned on 24 hours a day, the emotional development of two people is like a plant without the sun, and it is also easy to suffer from malnutrition. From the wind and frost, I thought I found a greenhouse, which is cold and warm, but without the moisture of the sun for a long time, it eventually withered. Luckily, their best moments happened in this room.
When I talk to my friends about this, I feel that although their business is hard, their life is sweet. The sweetness of love is the kind of mint. Although it is sweet, it will numb people. Against the background of bitterness, it will make people indulge in that sweetness. Although two people go up and down on Dinghao, at the very beginning, several floors of elevators are the starting points of two destinations, one starting point is a home with a house, and the other is a home with you.
I don't know why many movies ask a question like an HR, why did you come to Beijing? Most of the answers will be empty and big, but Xiaoxiao's answers are clear and very purposeful. Later, in the movie, it becomes a slightly out of control steering wheel, which occasionally misses, occasionally deviates from the track, and does not turn the direction until the middle. . And Jianqing is like a magnetic field on the co-pilot, which can pull her back, and finally attract the positive and negative poles together, which makes the two people's lover relationship.
But the stumbling and stumbling along the way are the things that are most easily recalled in love. Whether it is the jokes in the Northeast, the bed under the bed in the shared house, or the mutual relief in the passageway, their accumulation and warming are all eased, and finally The face-to-face jokes at the World Trade Center level finally brought the signals squarely into the eyes. (Spoiler: Li Jianqing played a trick in the movie. He kept his head down and didn't show his face. After that, he became a person with his own BGM. Every time he appeared, he sang a song, which became the background music of the movie. The first time he appeared, he was sitting next to Lin Jianqing, playing the guitar and singing. He sang "Hurry". The lyrics were written by Li Zongsheng. .)
After that, I entered my favorite episode. The relationship between the two people is impulsive but not drama, trivial and fireworks. The confession part is very student-like. Especially in the last ten years, the usual routine for boys is to confess when they are drunk. I don't know if children still use it now, but Jing Boran's performance made me think that he should be the one in that scene. He was drunk, his eyes were red, and his eyes were sullen, but when he smiled, he grinned, and he remained sober that he did not say anything wrong in the drunkenness before his confession. Just gave him a smooth response.
Even if they are poor, they are not poor. How many people go to great lengths to make a confession, lighting candles, setting off fireworks, calling a group of people to witness, and achieving the man or woman's princess dream. There's nothing wrong with this, it's not demeaning, it's not a gangster, I just want to say, it's not a must. At least Lin Jianqing and Fang Xiaoxiao are not like this, which is also good.
The first time I was very moved was when two people were at the station. Beijing's winter is very cold, dry and impersonal, especially in those years when there was no taxi software. Even in the middle of the night, there are a lot of cars, but few are willing to stop. I saw some people keep their waist down at the station to see if there is a car coming, and the bus always has no concept of time, sometimes waiting for one. No one came every hour, but a bunch came as soon as it came, like a train, so it was really cold. Lin Jianqing picked up Fang Xiaoxiao and put it on the fence, and then the two of them laughed happily, very sweet. Later, Lin Jianqing said let's take a taxi. This sentence is like a love sentence.
Because the emotional story of the movie runs in parallel, there is a plot twist in the middle, and the two people enter a state of acting, sometimes acting inexplicably, tit for tat, humbling and incomprehensible to each other. Even if the starting point is "for you", it is very rampant, not testing each other's bottom line, but digging each other's bottom line.
I think yes, I don't do it because I love you, I do it because I can only be you.
The two of them seemed to think that since our foundation had been laid, it would not collapse no matter how tricky it was, but the purpose was to build a tall building for us, and you never escaped from the building. If you want a house, I want you, then I will quickly get a house to hold you.
Then experienced an emotional earthquake, the house collapsed, the foundation was preserved, but they were left in each other's hearts, it became a nail house, and then a tall building could only be built next to it.
This movie is a memoir for a single audience and a precaution for a couple audience.
Although the movie is called "Later Us", in fact, the core is "Later". In the end, it is "how do you remember me, with a smile or very silent, some people will not be there once they miss it." It's just that they didn't learn how to To love, but how to be safe, that's another line of love.
In this emotional line, they restrained their behavior, but it was difficult to restrain their emotions.
Emotions are inherently difficult to control. It's not a hard drive, just format it when it says format. When Lin Jianqing repaired his roommate's computer, he didn't even say that those things of yours are not in the system disk, it's fine. The feelings are just the opposite, everything is in the system disk, they have removed other storage, but they have not cleaned the system disk.
They talked, laughed, cried and endured, and finally stayed awake, laughed about the past, and finally hugged. Just played the movie theme song "We", without a period, it was already perfect.
In addition to the double line of feelings, there is also a line of "Going Home, Chinese New Year", Liu Ruoying's novel, the source of the IP mentioned in the title. And Tian Zhuangzhuang of this line sucked the tears of all the audience. At the end of the movie, a stereo-style cry formed around him, summarizing what "later us" is. As long as there are us, a later has been prepared, and this later is , Fate is enough for each other.
And the end of the two people finally used the previously buried stalk to deal with. When the screen is full of comments like Netease Cloud Music's comments, various names, various apologies, and various apologies appear, they are asking Does your ex apologize? No, they are actually reconciling to the past. Do not continue to be stubborn in reconciliation, because it is enough to live up to each other.
I originally wanted to watch this movie because I heard Rene Liu sing the episode "Outside" and "If Love", and Rene Liu sang very well. Many of the materials that came out after adding are winter, and I always think of "If Love". There are also inexplicable connections in some places. One male protagonist is named Lin Jiandong and the other is named Lin Jianqing. They are both in a cramped room with similar chairs, and they are cooking instant noodles. At that time, they did not eat well, but they ate well.
