If "Wild Pear Tree" Ahlat Ağacı is a book, it is definitely the kind of book that can be read over and over again by the bedside, with a lot of dialogue between characters, a large hometown scenery, wind blowing trees, golden leaves, falling snowflakes , The scenery in winter, the truck drives on the field road at a constant speed, driving forward, as if there is no end.
The art and photography of "Wild Pear Tree" are amazing, the colors are very beautiful, the roughness of the town and village has become a special beauty, the crowded hut of his old home in Ceylon, his own room, a converted sofa bed, There are bookshelves and desks, the window behind the head of the bed, it is dark at night, snow flakes in winter, and the room is lit with yellow lights. In this room, talk to my mother, hand over the published book to my mother, set off for school, take exams, go to military service, leave, and come back again.
The wild pear tree is a wild pear tree in the hometown of Ceylon. The branches grow wildly, out of place, lonely and deformed. When Ceylon was a child, there was one outside the school and one on the hillside in front of the hometown. Ceylon imagined that his father fell under a wild pear tree and was covered in ants. Grandpa said that when he was a child, his father slept in the field, and his whole body was covered with ants. Ants crawled out of his nose for several days. This may be the reason why his father became Different from ordinary people.
Tea drinking culture is a new impression of Turkey after reading "Wild Pear Tree". At the beginning of the movie, Ceylon is drinking tea in a teahouse by the sea. The glass reflects the flowing sea surface, and the seabirds make a noisy chirping. Ceylon seems to be observing everything, but also seems to be in a daze.
This Turkish tea drink is featured repeatedly in the movie, a small glass filled with reddish-brown liquid on a small saucer. Gaming shops, chess and card rooms, and roadside teahouses all drink this kind of tea. The gaming shop is the place that Ceylon’s father would go to during his free time. He could basically find his father there. If he wanted to smoke, he would go to the chess and card room. The roadside teahouse was a place to sit down and have a cup of tea when he was tired from walking, talking, and thirsty. , sit down and continue the conversation.
Ceylon is a college student who just graduated and dreams of becoming a writer. After returning to his hometown, he tried to publish a book he wrote. He needed money, and his father was addicted to gambling and owed debts. Ceylon raised money and dealt with everything his father brought.
After graduating from the University of Ceylon, they go home and prepare for the exam. If they pass the exam, they can become teachers. A large number of college students queue up to take the exam to become teachers, or they are arranged to serve in the military. In Anatolia, the home of Ceylon, men who drop out of school have nothing to do, and there are people who work hard like Ihami, the quarry owner, and young women wait for a proposer to come and get married. Heidis is one of these women. Before marriage, she met Ceylon under a wild pear tree, with sunshine and wind. The two imagined an island full of treasures, smiling happily, and suddenly weeping. Ceylon who went out to study and the group of people who stayed in their hometown have the same destiny carrier, and they will face similar challenges and dilemmas if they have to make a last resort or make some active choices.
Ceylon's father is also a teacher. In the photo, in the memory of his mother, there is also the description of the imam. His father was also a hard-working person and was very motivated. Everyone sees the way he is now. , although there are complaints, but they are very tolerant. But Ceylon did not understand at all, no matter what kind of achievements they had in the past, it was an indisputable fact that the family was in distress. The mother went to borrow money to raise money for the journey, and the father chased after him and begged to buy a pack of cigarettes. Ceylon, who had just graduated, still had the ideal of publishing his own book.
Ceylon called his friend and complained that he was uncomfortable when he returned to his hometown. This is Anatolia, oh my God, and his friend also complained to him about some absurd things he encountered when he was a soldier. Ceylon told Heidis that he did not want to stay in this place with no vitality and no future. When his mother asked about his girlfriend, Ceylon blurted out that his future girlfriend would not want to come to this place. Revolt, Ceylon revolt can be seen everywhere. He keeps a distance from his father and is deeply suspicious. This is a loser who is deeply involved in gambling and paralyzing himself. He is in debt, a stubborn digger, and he is doing things that can't regain his face and dignity no matter what. Father sometimes stated, sometimes silent, or showed a weird smile that was unrealistic, and Ceylon was full of contempt and disdain.
In the eyes of people in my hometown, Ceylon is a lunatic who only wants to publish a book, and is out of tune with the surrounding environment, like a wild pear tree. Young people, so called Ceylon by the owner of the mine, ideals are good wishes, but things like life, divorce and suicide still exist. The quarry needs to be renovated, the old mother is sick and needs care, and the workers need to pay living expenses and bills. Respect instincts and feelings, and life will teach you more.
Ceylon was relatively silent when he first returned to his hometown. After returning to Canakkale to take the exam, he turned into a chatterer, teasing his old friend Nevanat in a seaside teahouse. Your poverty reveals a post-modern artistic atmosphere. The old friend counts that he only needs 250 lire to solve everything, pay off debts, buy daily necessities, and buy the damn screw for hanging pots.
When I went to a bookstore to sell antique books, I met a writer I admired, and had a face-to-face conversation. I kept asking until the writer left, but I was still chasing after him. What should I do about the purpose of writing and living conditions? Any good suggestions? Until Ceylon suddenly reappeared in front of the writer who left angrily, dreams and reality intertwined, Ceylon pushed the broken mermaid arm into the river, and after rebelling, ran away quickly, and ran all the way to the body of the Trojan horse sculpture on the square.
Returning home from Ceylon after military service in the east, there is light in the electric lights, there is electricity in the house, the mother and sister are chatting with Ceylon in the room, talking about the book published by Ceylon being soaked in the rain, the mother and daughter are wearing face masks Nervous and smiling from time to time, it is no longer the sad expression that was lying in the living room watching TV, nor the lonely look in the kitchen or by the window.
My father's pension satisfies the family's basic living needs, while my father goes to the country alone to live in an old house by himself. In his dimly lit room, Ceylon saw his purse, which was stuffed with a clipped newspaper, a news report about Ceylon's book, and his father kept it in his purse. Ceylon was in a complicated mood, with tears in her eyes, and the characters who had been fighting all of a sudden suddenly showed fragility, which made people feel overwhelmed.
Ceylon and his father were driving to pull fodder, and on a snowy day, snowflakes began to float. The reason for the change of life, it is time to give up the rebellion, the villagers are right, this well on the mountain has no water source. When Ceylon was talking with his father, he looked over the well from time to time, and there was a voice there. A sheep disappeared before, and thought it was taken away by a jackal. On the way back to the village, I heard crying from the forest, a miserable cry. When I got closer, I found that it was the sheep, which gave birth to a pair of twins. After despair The new born, also in that well.
His father had a new hound, and Ceylon's book became his father's best friend, and he fell asleep. When he woke up, it was still snowing in the sky. He fed the lambs with fodder and walked to the mouth of the well. At the bottom of the well, Ceylon was digging a well.
I've forgotten a lot, but even forgetting is fascinating,
One should be pragmatic,
Good memories and bad memories coexist,
blur, melt,
There are others that should stay and keep in mind.
