This movie is not released in British theaters. I watched it in Danube, the online theater used by 99% of international students. This website is quite special. Only the IP address can be logged in if the IP address is not in the country. It is conceivable to imagine a wall built in the opposite direction, and thus geographically isolate the audience. That is to say, all the comments and barrages on this website are sent by real people living overseas.
The barrage that floats from time to time in the middle of the movie is too eye-catching, and I pick a few that are very impressive:
-- At the wedding, the groom's father stood up and said, "We brothers have not returned to China for 25 years. Immediately, a few small bullet screens expressing doubts appeared at the top of the screen, "It's too fake for so many years", "I just don't believe that someone hasn't returned to China for so many years", "It's impossible for 25 years", and after all these have passed, the screen will show up again. "It's possible, I haven't returned to China for 15 years" appeared slowly.
-- When there are new discussions about white lies in the movie, the barrage is often added to it, but there is no point of view, only experience sharing. One person said, "My family didn't let me go back to China when my grandfather died, and now I regret why I was so obedient at that time." Another person sent a similar response a minute later, "I bought my grandfather a plane ticket to attend my graduation ceremony, but left without waiting for the others."
It can be seen from the barrage that "Don't Tell Her" is really a good movie, in every sense. Able to touch across mountains and seas to every Chinese who stay overseas all the year round. Whether it is a generation of immigrants who still feel cramped after going abroad for many years, ABC who is still skeptical about Chinese culture, or an international student who has missed a lot of moments overseas, everyone can relate. From the beginning to the end of the movie, I spent 90% of my energy watching the movie, and the other 10% missed my grandfather who passed away while studying abroad. Just like the four words that appear most often in the barrage, "too real", yes, it is too real, so real that I can completely substitute myself (I even saw the female protagonist look more like me in the second half) . OK. very nice.
