This is the first time I write a movie review. As a person who can hardly cry when watching a movie, this movie is really a rare movie that makes me cry twice. Before, I was not very interested in depicting real movies. After watching this movie, I couldn't help but think, are those movies that used to be real in the past really show the so-called real? Some people watched a film that described the dark side of society and told about the ugliness of human nature. Is human nature so indifferent? I think a real life is difficult to describe with a few single words, just like in the movie, it is true that there is the "evil" of stealing bicycles, but there is also a human warmth, which helps Richie to find a bicycle friend , there are police officers who follow the procedures seriously (behind), and there are relatives who love and accompany them. These are indeed part of everyone's ordinary life, and it is these warmth that make people feel helpless and powerless. On the other hand, looking at those films that blindly describe the evil of human nature, those evil actions, such a bad world appears less real, and distances itself from our lives. Once this is done, we will lose the ability to empathize with it, but will not. Tai will have too deep reflection and insight on this.
As a representative work of Italian neorealism, it is not only a simple picture, but also an emotional reality. At first, the husband and wife had different opinions on the goddess, and they began to argue. They thought that a quarrel would break out, but they immediately returned to calm and continued to look forward to tomorrow's life. Indeed, where did so many huge emotional explosions come from in reality. Father and son went to find a bicycle. Later, the father thought that his son had fallen into the river. When he looked back and saw his son, he suddenly felt that life had not completely collapsed. The two went to the restaurant to eat later, not to show people's misery or to rekindle hope , I feel more of a kind of powerlessness to reality. Rich has secretly felt that the bicycle can no longer be found, but he still tells his son what their future life will be like if they own that bicycle. It feels as if Telling himself that he has lost his future. In the last scene when Richie was chased by the crowd, he was seen by his son. After he was released, he held his son's hand and walked aimlessly in the crowd. He didn't cry at first, but the moment he turned around and saw his son, he looked like a I cried like a child. I believe that in my son’s heart, my father is still the kind and simple person. It’s just because of this day’s rush and the pressure of life that he had a moment of malice, but in my father’s eyes, he has lost the dignity of being a father.
The film's depiction of warmth is very empathetic. The scene of my son closing the window, let me know that this is a loving family. But it is different from some movies, and its own great advantage is that it does not amplify this feeling too much, otherwise it will have a sensational effect, just like some movies always have the theme that love can conquer everything. But at the end of the film, when the father walks through the crowd holding his son's hand, the father-son tenderness between them seems so insignificant in the face of complex life, and nothing can be changed. Life may sometimes be an unsolved mystery, but we still have to keep going.
