It is indeed a small-cost production of a big star. There are no big scenes. Most of them are interior scenes. The exterior scenes are just a few street mirrors shouting taxis, and a community park with a big palm. No special effects at all, no slow motion, at least I didn't see it.
But the stars are really big names, you don't need to look at the name, a look, a few lines, and a few small actions, you can feel the solid foundation underneath. Don't talk about it, look like you are very professional.
This drama, I think, is very emotional for people who are parents to watch. Almost all the details in life, struggling to leave home, chaotic breakfast, tasteless dinner, spilled juice, company before bed, rushing between work and family, etc. It seems that after so many years, the content of family life is still similar.
This play, some say, was watched with tears. Indeed, many places are very well performed and very touching. It can be said that there is not a single failure. What moved me the most was a small detail. After the father and son quarreled, they apologized to each other late at night. The son was lying on the bed, a tear streaked from the corner of his eyes, the father buried his head in hugging him, kissed his face, and stopped for a long time before raising his head. Before looking up, he hurriedly turned off the lamp by the bedside. In fact, the child seems to sleep with the light on every night, the desk lamp is covered with a small red cloth, and the light is dim. I think the father didn't want the child to see the dazzling dazzling in his eyes.
In the details of turning off the lights, there is a father's deep love for his son. Even if the heart is extremely painful and broken, he cannot show his vulnerable side in front of his son. Whether it is a son or life, we all need an omnipotent father, a heroic father, a superman who is invincible in the face of many difficulties, and a man who will never give up.
He often rushes to school, rushes to the company with frozen chicken, and then smiles, "I can handle everything", "You can trust me 25 hours a day, eight days a week", "I will definitely do it within one day." Find a job again" "I'm his dad, I have to be by his side", "I can't let him leave me, I'll solve the money problem"...
In fact, what kind of superman is there? No matter how powerful the father is, he is also a man of flesh and blood, and he is also an ordinary man. He also has the moment of collapse, and he has to accept the reality of failure.
There are many other such scenarios, such as rushing to the hospital with an injured son, and the son insisting on being by his side when stitching; Go up; if teaching my son to ride a bicycle, looking at his back, proud and worried, he shouted, don't ride too far! For example, at the school Halloween party, the son of the announcer forgot his lines, and he sat on the stage and spoke to him sentence by sentence; such as the morning of parting, the father and son cooked breakfast together skillfully but sadly. Wait, it's too much.
But this father-son relationship is not the focus of what I want to talk about. What I want to say is that after watching this film, the biggest impression is two words, balance. Work-family balance, self-life balance, wife-husband balance, each is important. In this film, the husband's imbalance between work and family caused the wife's imbalance between self and life, which also caused the long-term imbalance between wife and husband, and then caused a series of problems. .
Suddenly I thought of a very powerful saying, everyone who knows how to live a happy life is a master of balance in life. I don't know where I saw it, or just thought of it myself. If it's the latter, I'll be complacent for a long time.
Is not it? I don't think I need to explain too much. The deeper you go into life, the more unsolicited some truths will come to you.
There is another word, if you are not a parent, no matter how old you are, you can only be considered a minor. This principle does not need too much explanation. Those who understand will naturally understand, and those who do not understand will gradually understand, or, never will.
