The film is not long, 90 minutes, but if it wasn't too cold outside and my ass wasn't warm, I think it would have to quit halfway through.
The story isn't too complicated, with all the flavors of a midlife crisis. Two couples, close friends and neighbors, one facing a turbulent marital crisis, the other a troubled adolescent daughter who falls in love with a close friend her own age.
The center of the film is the couple whose marriage is on the rocks. Faced with crisis, the man chooses the embrace of the beautiful young girl next door, while the woman transfers her love to charity. The two never sat down and talked seriously. The man tried and failed. For that woman, the confusion and struggle of marriage seemed to be integrated into life and became a part of life. The film does not examine the root cause of women's escape from the problem. It is not the script's intention to magnify the contradiction, and it is even more impossible to solve the contradiction.
The entry point of the film is on the old cow eating the young grass. In terms of appearance alone, this old cow is not an ordinary lewd middle-aged man. In my opinion, it is not an easy thing to maintain like Uncle Hugh in his 50s, not to mention Dr. House, a jazz piano. Home, the background of elegant Oxford intellectuals is preconceived, although Tender Grass is the queen of children's dramas, a young and beautiful fashion girl. I don't think she suffered too much from her appearance. But the point is, the point is, old cattle and young grass have no Chemistry at all! ! No chemistry, not a bit.
Tender grass is as beautiful and arrogant as ever, but has no content. His face is still that kind of casual teenager frivolity, and his mouth continues to say the lines of fifteen or six years old I think, I want, I love. Lao Niu, as her parents' best friend, watched her grow up from a young age. One day, Nencao returned to the village to reunite with her family. It happened that Lao Niu was there. In the evening, the two watched the North Koreans play basketball on the sofa together. Minutes, inexplicable emotions erupted. Such a plot design is like putting vinegar in a poached egg, which is sour. That sudden kiss, oh my god, was so shocking. Imagine the grim Doctor House hugging and kissing a pink Hello kitty, it's that weird and awkward scene. The next emotional development, as Guardian film critic Peter Bradshaw said: Naturally Horrendous. (horrible gradient). The line that the young grass asked the old cow in the coffee shop: "Are you happy?" It made me have the urge to choke her neck. Could it be that I really thought of myself as a 12-year-old loli, very naive and stupid. The old cow actually responded to her on the spot, and the audience fainted. Even Sheldon would agree that this is a satirical line rather than sincere. Anyone can have impulses, but such stupid impulses are rare, let alone in the wise Doctor House. Fortunately, Tengcao's mother also has a few powerful lines and vomiting scenes from time to time to save this disastrous rice-pasting film.
The poet Yeats said: "Love is beautiful, but how many people love you in the joyful hours of youth, in your beauty, false or true, only one loves you, the pilgrim soul, and the pain of your aging face." wrinkle. "The
philosopher Qian Zhongshu said: "Always be happy" is not only too vague to be realized, but also too ridiculous to be tenable. The fast-passing will never last forever. The same is true in this film: a middle-aged man who is not confused The males try to find true love and happiness, but in the end they end up with nothing, mental distress and uneasy washing. And because of the childish plot, empty lines and wrong casting, the movie makes people feel like drinking soy sauce for cola. If it is said that Uncle Hugh fell in love with his friend's daughter, it is naive and stupid, and there is its own inevitability. However, the point is that if there is no fit and feeling between the actors at all, it is really sorry for the poor quality of the audience. The show. You have to look at the soy sauce. I also typed the wrong soy sauce tonight.
