Registered specially to express my feelings.

In recent years, I have not liked watching the so-called blockbusters of the Hollywood comic series, which have no depth. I don’t really watch European dramas that have depth but are extremely dull, let alone domestic bloody movies. Throughout the year, I fell into a kind of starvation situation. Fortunately, after watching this movie today, it was like a rainy season after a long drought, and the urge to write something was hard to suppress.

On the surface, it is very old-fashioned, music + inspiration, but there has never been a musical film that can explain the type of music itself through the storyline of the movie, and this movie did it. He made me, who was completely uninterested in hip-hop, begin to understand the voice of the soul behind hip-hop. Hip-hop music from the black bottom has always existed in the form of underground music, without that kind of experience, without the rebellious personality, without the torture of the soul, and at a deeper level, without the cynicism of social injustice, it is difficult for you to understand hip-hop What do you want to point to.

Male No. 1 is Islam, and in an environment where Hinduism is the state religion, it is the bottom. Black skin, in the caste system environment, or the bottom. Living in a slum is the bottom of the bottom. There is also a stern father who says that the son of a servant is always a servant. The male protagonist has a flame of resistance in his heart, which laid the foundation for him to become a hip-hop genius. The subject matter of his lyric writing is at his fingertips, because the environment in which he lives forced him to speak out his inner accusations, or follow the trajectory of his parents, stealing drugs, or being a servant, which is at best a food and clothing. Why? ! Hip-hop has been asking this society, why is the bottom always the bottom?

In fact, not only in India, but in all countries in the world in peacetime, which one is not class-distinct? But what other work dares to really touch on this structural injustice? Therefore, this year's Korean movie Parasite has also received unanimous praise from people. In contrast, the Indian film is positive, the Korean film is much more negative, and even the Korean film has a condescending sense of scrutiny, which makes moviegoers feel extremely uncomfortable. At the end of the film, the male protagonist has two bumper harvests in love and career. By the way, his love is also independent and resistant. Although the female protagonist's explosive temper is more direct, the male protagonist's resistance also includes resistance to temptation, which is more difficult.

After writing so many paragraphs, I still can't describe the feeling of resonance that stirs in the soul. Let's go and see for yourself. In addition, the songs in it are really good. If you feel it in the plot, your tears will fall silently again and again, although you always end up laughing through tears.
