Perhaps, "Moon River" is flowing with a touch of sadness. Under the moonlight, everything seems so pure, but the real cruelty, who knows?
I have always liked Indian movies. There are beautiful protagonists, handsome male protagonists, and natural singing voices. But I only like it because of the lingering sadness in their deep eyes. That is the natural imprint of this suffering nation.
Why there is a widow's house, not because there is nowhere to go, but because four sets of sarees and a bed can be saved, it should not be for anything else, it is actually money.
Because of the money, Kalianne was the only young widow in the widow's house who didn't lose her hair. Even the widows were reluctant to touch her body and eat with her.
Indian notions of race and caste are so strong that widows become a caste of pariahs - untouchables. Even when fetching water from the river, the common man would say to the widow: "Your shadow, don't touch the bride!"
No matter what happens, never lose your beliefs.
The biggest sadness of this film is that it only uses the camera to describe everything, and there is no comment at all. At the same time, in every corner of the film, the only remaining kindness of the people is written without any trace.
For example, widows will also beg on the side of the road together. And the 8-year-old widow Chuya (in fact, she symbolizes the only hope left in the widows' hearts) is obviously not suitable for this kind of life, but the innocent and kind-hearted she will still use the money from begging to miss the 7-year-old wedding for the rest of her life. When the sweet tooth's aunt buys a Ledu. In the picture we only see the boss expelling Chu Ya and telling him to leave quickly because "widows can't eat fried food". And the camera turned again, Chu Ya still secretly brought Laidu to her aunt. What does this mean? Chuya finally won food for the widows that they could not eat.
And the aunt died the night after eating Laidu, Chu Ya was very sad, maybe it was Laidu who accelerated her death, the dry stomach could not accept such greasy food, but from another point of view, the aunt was finally round before she died After realizing her dream, she should have left with a smile and no regrets.
The tragic handling of the widow's fate in the film is very subtle, and this is the sadness of the Indian style, which is touching and silent.
It seems that Kalyanne is getting closer and closer to her happiness, a nobleman is willing to marry a widow, he says he truly loves her.
But when he picked her up, she found desperately that it was impossible for her to cross the river, because on the other side of the river, that house, she had been there.
Unable to say why, she couldn't say it, she could no longer wear a blue sari with gold trim, as beautiful as a peacock, and she walked into that moon river under the moonlight.
Chuya's fate also uses a strong contrast to reflect the tragic nature of her fate. She had just been disguised as a beautiful god Krishna, her beautiful face was filled with a rare innocent laughter, and the next day, she repeated the mistakes of Kalianne and was taken to a large and splendid house. I just went to play, thinking I could go home after playing for a while. Does Chuya's fate also imply that Kalianne also had such a childhood.
Fortunately, there is also Gandhi. They used the priest's mouth to say that Gandhi is a rare figure in this world.
Gandhi said that even the untouchables that people don't want to touch are the children of God, which no doubt scares the old-fashioned people.
Chuya was finally handed over to Narayan.
He took her away, and they ran for a sunny spot. Maybe Chuya's future can wear blue sarees with gold trim.
I haven't read the book I should read, and I haven't started writing the article I want to write for a long time. But encountered unexpected suffering. how could this be...
