Because I was afraid of spoilers, I bought tickets without reading the introduction. I heard the name and thought it must be a story of the bitter blood and tears of the Russian working people that criticized realism. Comparable to the last "City Lights" (two films screened at the Beijing Film Festival in a row in the middle theater), because of the anticipation of tragedy, it is more humorous in contrast. After the show, I checked the information and found that it was originally a comedy film! (Thank you, I was deceived by the title of the film, it should be changed to "Moscow Actually Few Tears" orz)
Although it is a comedy, it is not frivolous and superficial. Although it has filtered out all the details of the hard life of the urban little people, it can still clearly convey the weight of the joys, sorrows and joys of a heavy life, making people feel full and warm. Almost every character in the play is full and profound, with their own unique views and pursuits of life, and practice their beliefs throughout their lives. Such real and rich characters naturally convey a kind of vitality of life, and the language is poignant and sharp, which makes people feel enjoyable to read.
The story revolves around three friends, three life choices, and three endings. These three friends are all good young people who came from a small town to make a living in the city. One keeps his own feet, married and had children with a good young man from the same small town, and lived a peaceful and stable life; The prosperous advantage of choosing a decent husband changes his life; the other just wants to go to college through his own efforts and change his life by himself. These three women also seek benevolence and benevolence, and they all get the results they want, but all of them are not completely consistent with the ideal life they imagined. They all gained some and lost some at the same time. Living a peaceful and peaceful life, although there is stability and happiness, but often troubled by his mediocrity; Mi De Jia’s son-in-law turned into a phoenix, but he was only successful for a while. The husband and wife shared weal and woe. Stop and start all over again; everything depends on her own, raising her daughter, going to university, becoming a factory manager, her career is flourishing, and her life is safe, but the void left by no love gives her a lonely heart, She had been looking for him for a long time, but fortunately, even if the years were wasted, they finally had to meet in middle age.
The film presents these three lives in the lightest possible way for viewers to enjoy. I like the third life, and I am trying to live it. Although the void left by his absence has also given me a "lonely soul", I have to wait and have to wait.
I really like Gogo's character in the female idea, although some of his unreasonable machismo, such as "women can't speak loudly to men, can't make more money than others", make me puzzled and unacceptable, But I still like him very much, such an interesting and dispositional person, even if he has some stubborn and rotten notions, he probably won't be too annoying. He's straightforward, funny, responsible, and has so many different and bizarre perspectives, and I think it's rarely boring to have him around. If there is such good luck waiting for such a person, the lonely moments of those lonely hearts can be slowly told to him for the rest of their lives, how happy.
Twice in the movie, the predictions of television eroding all aspects of human life sound palpitating. The predictions made 40 years ago have now come true, but there are more accomplices who help the tyrants. The Internet, big data recommendations, and ubiquitous fragmented information The explosion of the Internet is destroying traditional art forms, and the situation of literature, film and drama is getting worse and worse. What is even more frightening is that even if we soberly want to resist, we are still weak and struggling.
The theme song of the movie is very nice, and there is a lyric to the effect of "Moscow warms the lonely soul". Happily, this movie also warmed my soul on this early autumn day after a rainy day.
