After watching this film, many people are writing things, but I think that only those in the "socialist camp" will be more qualified to write something.
Family affection may be the first word after watching this film, although family affection is carried out by "deception." The mother deceived the son for the son, and the son deceived the mother for the mother. The son always thought that his mother was a great socialist and committed to fictional the world, but the fact is that she, who was prepared to defect as well, stayed for her son and tried to pretend to be a determined activist. Just as the owner of a fruit shop puts up a slogan "Communism will definitely come true", does he really believe in the content of the slogan? It has nothing to do with him whether it is realized or not, but if it is listed, there will be a lot less troubles such as spies, and this has a lot to do with him. In order to live, both mother and son have made their own efforts. Although life was a joke to them at the end. Just like Kafka's dilemma, it is actually a black humor. In the life with black humor, it shows the most sensitive places, environmental pollution, cold war, material deprivation and other easily politicized language. If you say it from the mouth of a small person, you will have a different taste, and leave it to The audience is their own aftertaste.
If a good film is like this, it would still be a bit thin. The East Germany reflected in the TV program produced by the protagonist and his friends will be very cheesy if you watch it carefully for the second time. Of course, East Germany had already disappeared for several months before they made these festivals. The East Germany they made was finally more open and free, abandoned the Berlin Wall and agreed to the flow of both sides. Perhaps this is not only the dream of the Germans, but also the self-confidence that socialism should have?
How were people bound in the past? In the third time, we can also find that the protagonist has successfully produced an East Germany simply by using an interior design and a lot of self-produced TV programs. In the past era, television, newspapers and media promoted official opinions, and spies and violent agencies tried their best to search for people who did not speak according to the official caliber. Did we live in a lie in the past?
Although it was called "Goodbye Lenin", Lenin only appeared once in the film, facing the mother who walked into the real world alone. It's quick to come, and it's quick to go. If you have a little knowledge of Soviet history, you can know that the movements of the sculpture were made according to the movements of Lenin in the famous oil painting. The painting reflects the Second All-Russian Congress of Soviets held in 1917 during the artillery attack on the Winter Palace. Lenin. Then in the sunset glow, the Ning image had a golden light, but it quickly disappeared and faded away. All that was left was the confused expression of his mother.
If it is the description before, you can now think about this question, why is it called goodbye Lenin? If more ideological sales are necessary, it is better to call goodbye to Marx. What does Lenin represent? The founder of the Soviet Union. But the Soviet Union after Stalin and others became full of unsatisfactory places. And this atmosphere has also been brought to various countries in Eastern Europe at the same time. At the same time Lenin is also a core, any socialist country as the object of respect, no matter which leader must take Lenin out as a sign of his orthodoxy, even the most rebellious country in the traditional socialist camp also uses Lenin as a banner. Attack the Soviet leadership in power. During the political turmoil from the late 1980s to the early 1990s, Westerners really saw Lenin say goodbye to everyone. There is a general optimism in the entire Western world, and it is believed that the era of establishing a new international order has arrived. All problems are easily solved. The conflict between socialism and capitalism is over, and the future world will inevitably be a universal capitalist economic system and a relative political and cultural system. As Fukuyama said in "The End of History and the Last Man", history is over, and the future will be an era of globalization of the free market economy.
But the fact is that the world did not think what everyone expected, just as when Lenin's sculpture disappeared, what was left behind was the profound meaning contained in the confused mother. When everyone came out of a Plato cave, instead of facing the truth, they entered another cave. In the film, capitalism has been largely replaced by drug abuse and sexual proliferation. At the same time, we have to ask where is Marx who has been absent from this story? Just like the ghost that Derrida said, it appears in the TV produced by the protagonist. After bidding farewell to Lenin, the understanding of Marxism and socialism should be more diverse, open, and tolerant. Marxism, which originally pursued the liberation of mankind, can be truly liberated only if it gets rid of authority. The specter of communism will inevitably continue to appear. Just like the ghost in "Hamlet", and we don't know when and where it will appear.
Who made us humans always face TO BE, OR NOT TO BE, and this also determines IS ALWAYS A PROBLEM.
PS: When I put this comment on myself, a jurisprudence man used a large number of property laws, some praised it, and some criticized it. Yu Qie speaks arrogantly, listens to it arrogantly.
