Many times I try to find some unpopular niche films to watch, not only because of their sincerity, simplicity and ingenuity that are loyal to the essence of the film, but also because of the direct touch of the heart, but also because of the intuitive expression of the film. , to improve the understanding of those countries that have been shrouded in mystery. Indeed, through the kaleidoscopic window of movies, Fang has seen the profound cultural customs, spectacular historical relics, and colorful lifestyles of many countries. It has added a lot of color to my vision and fantasy, but there is an unconventional director who does the opposite and gave me a completely subversive cognitive direction.

The high-end and western-style design kingdom, the perfect social welfare, and the local residents who live and work in peace and contentment are the inherent impression I have always left of Finland. It is like a fairy tale world full of all kinds of good things to expect, but this world-renowned pivotal The national treasure-level director has completely reversed my previous one-sided understanding, and the only thing that remains in his images may be the cold and bone-chilling coldness. Always obsessed with people at the bottom or marginalized people, living conditions under polarization, confused, lonely, free and sad situational atmosphere, slow rhythm control, unique and subtle capture of details, and intentional use of color symbolism, unusual for characters The dull depiction creates a more realistic and icy picture of Finland.

In Archie's image, the society that everyone admires no longer has stability, security, harmony, fairness and wealth, just like removing the appearance of a bright and beautiful disguise, and using a seemingly more ruthless but actually more A caring mindset looks at real life. And this kind of perspective has also become Akey's unique style full of infinite charm, but Akey is not a ruthless and decisive person. His serious cold humor and warm human touch have always permeated his seemingly critical reflection. In the world of light and shadow, when faced with a life that is often stagnant and hopeless, most of Archie will inject a wonderful warmth into it. This rare warmth is unprecedented in the recent work "Le Havre". spread to everyone.

Marcel, who had given up his glorious life in the past, brought his wife to the small town of Le Havre, polished his shoes and lived a normal life. At the beginning of the film, there was a small unexpected incident that caught everyone's attention. Interesting, this kind of life may be a little more difficult, but it is not difficult to see that the life of ordinary people is more colorful. At first, the local residents expressed some dissatisfaction with Marcel's credit, but as Marcel accidentally helped the fleeing boy, he hid him with care and went all out to send her to find his mother. People reported it, but slowly well-meaning residents began to lend a helping hand to help him hide and even read Kafka. At this time, a double crisis struck at the same time. The police officer's pressing step by step, on the one hand, is a sick wife pretending to be a strong wife, but life does not push Marcel into a corner as often expected.

Aki has always maintained his own style. The conversation between the couple about fat and thinness makes people smile knowingly. It is still that calm and cute cold humor. The sluggish pause is very similar to the domestic cartoons I watched when I was a child. The use of colors and the delicate composition of the composition have become Aki's specialty, and it also plays a wonderful role in "adding oil and vinegar" to the audience's emotions. It is still habitually reserved. The close-up of the lower body and the never-fading obsession with music, as evidenced by the energetic on-stage performance of Bob with gray temples in his mid-teens, is proof that the soundtracks in Aki's films are always so melodious and melodious. The tone of sadness is particularly moving, and these consistent characteristics of the Aki card are often unforgettable for a long time.

If there is no prejudice and misunderstanding about the rich and the poor, class, and race, break the quarrel and estrangement, and live together with mutual understanding and tolerance, just like Le Havre, everyone has a glass heart that is understanding and willing to help others. A peaceful and warm scene, even the cold and old-fashioned police officer has a tender side. I believe that even a society with bad deeds will have a day when spring blossoms, just like the last cherry tree that gives infinite vitality. Facing the dilemmas and problems that may exist in every country, Yu Hua recently expressed his frustration, helplessness and resentment towards the social reality with "death without a burial place", while Aki, who is becoming more and more tender-hearted, uses 1 +1 The double-stacked reversal technique of turning sadness into joy allows us to see the beauty of warmth and hope in the world. Don’t be too pessimistic in everything, and a positive turn will eventually emerge. Consolation and happy attachment.
