"God only gives gifts to those who go to heaven, but on earth we have to help each other."

There is no background of grievances and entanglements, and there is no heart-wrenching lingering lingering, deserted tones, dilapidated containers, people's always sitting posture, everything seems to be sorry for the title of "The Man Without the Past", which is very suspenseful. .

After waiting for more than an hour, I thought that a man would have a mysterious identity, only to know in the last few minutes that it was just an ordinary welder.

All people are little people. What the director wanted to tell was the story of life, chai, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, the joys and sorrows of little people, love and dreams, pain and hesitation.

I think the real utopia is not the peach blossom garden of Tao Yuanming's "yellow hair and beard, and it is also natural" - that is too beautiful, but also too far away. Under the lens of Archie, the people who walk in suffering and can still say that "God only bestows those who go to heaven, but on earth, we have to help each other", their lives are the real utopias of the world. A family of four living in a container was struggling to survive. Facing the unconscious man, his wife took out the money and said, " Buy

him some eggs."

The waiter in the restaurant brought the food and explained solemnly: "This is to be thrown away. If you don't eat it, they will throw it away too." Finally, I have to ask another question: "Do you want milk?" The

landlord said with a fierce look, If you can't pay the rent, let the dog bite off the man's nose. The man said that it would take some time to pay. The landlord finally brought a little bitch with a tongue out and said, "If you don't pay next week, you will be careful about this dog." The

landlord also gave the innocent-looking little bitch . Named: Hannibal.

This is not a gift from God, but a kindness given to one another by all people on earth.

And Emma, ​​the one who said "this is my first kiss" with a straight face.

This is not such a beautiful woman, but an elegant woman.

She didn't dislike the man who was penniless, not even a name.

The man's identity is revealed, and there is another wife at home. Emma said to him: "We shouldn't be like this, you are a wife."

She said: "I bought you a ticket to go back."

She said: "I will not forget you, you are my first love. "

It's a man's love. Aki is kind enough to use the divorce procedures that the man and his wife have already done to give this love a perfect ending.

And the bank robber who committed suicide. He was a boss who had to fire all his employees because the bank froze his accounts and still owes them wages. For this reason, he robbed the bank. In fact, he robbed the part of his frozen funds. He also specially warned: "I don't want more money."

After that, he asked a man to distribute the money to the employees. The man walked out of the house with the money and heard a gunshot from inside the house.

The story of the bank robber ends here.

I don't think he had to kill himself. The account was frozen by the bank, and he was also a victim. He robbed the bank but did not kill anyone. Even if he was caught, he would not necessarily be sentenced to death.

The man asked him why he didn't send the money himself, and he said he was afraid of being caught. It turned out that he was not even afraid of death, but he was afraid of being caught.

This is a dignified man. As a boss, he went bankrupt, but still insisted on paying his employees; even if he was robbing a bank, he was in a suit and leather shoes, with a gun in his hand, but maintained the attitude of a gentleman with a cane; in the end, he would rather commit suicide than be a robber. caught.

Before this robber, there was poverty in a man's life, but it was full of kindness and laughter, and he was really out of the peach blossom garden of resentment and hatred in the world. After the robbers, I suddenly realized that in this world in the film, where is the Peach Blossom Land without darkness and blood? It's just that people cover up cruelty with warmth, and try their best to create a utopia on earth in the midst of suffering.

The film is a bit dull, with dilapidated streets and shabby houses as far as the eye can see. The tramp, the clerk, and the only ones who stand out a bit are probably the boys from the band. The actors pretended to be rigid in their performances. Even though Emma knew that the man was caught and that the man heard the gunshots of the robbers committing suicide, their movements and expressions did not show the slightest gaffe. With a plain narrative style, every little thing is explained, Finnish films are full of unique Nordic sentiments. At first glance, it was a bit boring, but the more I looked, the more attracted I became.

I ended up posting a line the boys sang, and I really liked:

"When I'm happy or smiling today, my luck changes. Every day in life is different."
