Generally speaking, movies about children don’t have to worry too much about being boring. Movies about dancing may be more joyful, especially stories about a group of middle-aged uncles learning to dance, which may be more exciting!

There is a movie about middle-aged people learning to dance. Someone commented: It is rare to see a sullen and cold humor of a Japanese-style mid-life crisis.

The film is "Talking About Love, Dancing" directed by Zhou Fangzhengxing. Anyone who knows Zhou Fangzhengxing should know that his films are not many in number but of good quality, and they are always so relaxed, moving, funny and warm.

Japan, a middle-aged man - Sugiyama.

He is an ordinary office worker with a serious job and a happy family. He has just bought a house he likes, and his life is stable, and he has no dissatisfaction with life, but it is so secure that it makes people panic.

Empty and boring, he unknowingly fell into the predicament of life.

One day after get off work, the tired Sugiyama saw through the car window the lonely silhouette of a strange woman across from the station, and he was deeply attracted.

So he couldn't hold back his urge to be fresh and beautiful, he came to the dance room where the woman was and started to learn to dance.

If he was selfish about learning to dance at the beginning, but in the slow learning, he gained the pure joy of dancing.

Gradually, it became a love. When I went to work or waited for the bus, I would unconsciously practice dance steps in the subway, especially when the gray night, under the lonely bridge, and Sugiyama, who danced alone in the world of myself, made people feel uncomfortable. joy and fascination.

Seeing these tiny moving moments, the reason why we are so excited is very simple. Just like Sugiyama, who is trapped in life, we survive in the city. Make a little difference, kick the dullness of our hearts aside, and let the soul lighten up for a moment.

At first, I didn't like this man Sugiyama very much. I thought he was a bit lustful and shy, and had too many entanglements in my heart, but as the plot progressed, I could see the cuteness and value of this man, and he honestly faced He has his own heart, but what is even more valuable is the restraint of emotions. His affectionate and polite emotion towards Teacher Wu is admirable.

I especially like Sugiyama's gentle words when he dances with his wife at the end: I'm sorry for making you lonely.

Only those who have tasted loneliness can better understand the loneliness and loneliness of a lonely heart.

Yes, feelings require a little understanding and management.

As a warm comedy, there are many cute jokes in the movie.

Among them, Naoto Takenaka's playfulness in the film is the first to be recommended. His dance moves caught my eye as soon as he appeared, and his walking was too irritating!

And the nervous energy when he dances with his wig crooked, which is really funny and funny.

And there are many wonderful supporting characters that are explosive and cute.

I especially like the smart fat man and the soft-hearted middle-aged woman. They are not in good shape, but they dance smartly and full of beauty.

I think when a person dances, there should be no such external restrictions, it should be free and elegant.

Of course, there is also the female protagonist, Mr. Wu. My impression of her is: Gu Liang who loves to smile is good-looking. I don't like her cold and glamorous face, but I especially like her when she laughs, she is cute and transparent. Playful, beautiful, and pure.

In addition, she walks beautifully, gently and softly, exuding imagination about the beauty of dance.

"Talk about Love, Dance and Dance" has created a lot of jokes and a gentle romance, but what makes people tremble the most is its sensitivity and expressiveness to subtle emotions. After all, there is a tangle in everyone's heart. , That subtle desire and restraint is the real life.

When the background music plays, the sentence shall we dance? turns life into a poetic mood.

At this moment, how much I want to dance.

Even if you don't know how to dance, you can meet other little hobbies, and you can still try to pursue the love in your heart, in a specific life that you can't get rid of.

I hope your life will say goodbye to stagnation and turbulence as soon as possible, and rekindle tenderness again.

    Koji Yakusho, Naoto Takenaka

  • Johnathan 2022-03-18 09:01:06

    Zhou Fangzhengxing has made very few films, but he is rarely brilliant. In a high-stress country like Japan, this kind of relaxing movies should be very popular, and it also implies a mid-life crisis, extramarital affairs, and so on. Yakusho Koji, a dull man, is wonderful, and Naoto Takenaka is mainly responsible for funny and successful. Kusakari Mindai is really a cold beauty, a little bored in the middle, this is also a consistent problem with most Japanese movies, but this one is still worth watching.
