As tears go by. It is a very elegant translation, so some tears, and finally dissipated in the ashes of time.
It's not that mature, the ending is a bit rushed, but it tells a story clearly and clearly, which is a lot less than that of the contemporaries. The interesting thing is that today, both the director and the starring have already achieved a lot of success. Looking back at what they looked like 27 years ago, the experience and feeling of watching the movie is far more than what the movie itself gives.
This should be the earliest appearance of Maggie Cheung I have ever seen. Her skin is as white as jade, her eyes are as black as ink, her face is round to the point of baby fat, and her lips are slightly unhealthy. I'm used to seeing her sober, graceful, charming, desolate and even hysterical, but this is the first time I've seen such a simple and natural her, the beauty of hibiscus in clear water. In this movie, she doesn't need good acting skills, just standing there quietly is enough.
This is also a very simple story. About brothers, about love, about life.
It was his luck in the tragedy that Wu Fei followed the eldest brother Hua. Such a boss really cares and cares for him like a younger brother, and lives by himself, but hopes that his younger brother can have a proper job. But Wu Fen is pathetic and hateful, and pitiful. He expresses his feelings in a stubborn and morbid way, "I would rather be a hero for a day than a fly for a lifetime." Out of anger... He didn't want to implicate the eldest brother, Andy, and pushed him away to continue his suicidal adventure. And Brother Hua, recklessly accompanied his younger brother Wu Fei on this road of no return. If you choose to use the money to kill the traitor, I will help you fill the gun to make sure he is dead. It's just my cousin A'e from Lantau Island. How long will I have to wait tonight?
-Miss Zhang is calling you, it doesn't matter if you buy or not, the most important thing is to be careful and come back early.
Flag stands so madly, but I still look forward to even if there is a 0.01% possibility, he will go back in the end, alive.
This dirge of fate, which focuses on people at the bottom of society, has a refreshing prelude with the fragrance of green grass. When A'e first came, the picture was only black and white, with black hair and black eyes against the backdrop of the white mask. As the story progressed, her feelings became stronger, and her lips slowly dyed a little bright red, and that bright color, like a stone, fell into Andy's peaceful heart lake. As A'e left, the picture appeared endless green forests, red tablecloths in the restaurant, red buses in the town...
-When you need this cup one day, call me and I will tell you to hide it where.
-I want to tell you that I found the cup.
As expected of Wong Kar Wai, love words can always be so poetic and romantic. Lingering in the heart, floating in the air.
What followed was a heavy and depressing chorus. I really like the way the film handles violent fight scenes. Whether it’s negotiating with local snakes, or picking quarrels and provoking trouble, fighting and killing people, until the end of Wu Fen’s death, the picture is a quiet light blue, which greatly weakens the violence of the event itself and the concept of “underworld”. , focusing on the joys and sorrows of the little people; secondly, to strengthen the contrast with the bright red blood, in the part of Hua Ge's revenge, the impact of the stick, machete, fist and foot is far less than that after the bottle is broken, Hua Ge is calm and depressed. Blood was slowly flowing down his face.
Wu Fei's series of choices, while putting himself into doom, also unconsciously pushed Brother Hua into danger. Every time you think about it unconsciously, you can feel at ease as a fish ball boy, or go back to your hometown, whatever it is, don’t hurt yourself and others. However, this is like the path arranged for him by fate, which cannot be changed. He is destined not to be a hero, but he does not accept his fate as a scumbag. So when the task that was no different from sending him to death appeared, he undoubtedly became the revealer.
- I'm not worthy of being your scumbag, you can't be your slender fellow without me, and I won't implicate you in the future.
For Wu Fei, the ending may not be so cruel, at least, I don't know that his beloved eldest brother finally lost his life for himself.
- We never know what will happen tomorrow, right? Let's go to supper, let's go.
