Many people questioned the eulogy of the younger brother in the film, saying that it destroyed the comic character of the whole film. I think this is the highlight of the film. Without this eulogy, this film would have been reduced to a purely funny farce. Without this eulogy, this film would have no thought, no soul, and would be just funny for the sake of being funny.
My father was a different man, he might not be perfect, but he was a good man. He loves us. What I want to do today is to offer him a solemn farewell, is that too much? Well, maybe, maybe he has his personal hobby. Life isn't simple, it's complicated, and we're all taken together into a world of chaos and turmoil, a world of questions and answers, and death always lingers in a corner. We try to be the best we can, but we can't always be the best, but, my father, he did. He kept telling me that you have to live the life you want because you never know when you're going to leave, success or failure. The most important thing is that you have tried hard, your parents can only guide you in the direction, but in the end, you still have to make your own way, you have to grow up by yourself. So, after you leave here today, I want you to remember my father for who he really was: a man of integrity and affection. Even if we could be like my father, generous, giving, and empathetic. Then the world will be a better place.
The director expressed his thoughts through the mouth of his younger brother. In fact, everyone may have hidden secrets and everyone has shortcomings. However, this does not prevent us from doing our best to do better. It does not prevent us from going Love those we love. No matter how dark, how sinister, how impetuous the society is, the environment cannot be changed, but we can change the way we look at problems. As long as we are the truest version of ourselves, as long as we live happily, why should we care about so many external things? ? I like the director's positive and optimistic attitude to interpret the difficulties in life. I think Chinese people generally lack the humorous spirit of self-regulation, self-relaxation, and self-joking. We are used to complaining about social injustice, government corruption, and friends' indifference. Maybe Sometimes all we need is a little bit of Ah Q's spirit.
