From my personal viewing experience I think it's a good movie because it not only points out the problem but also proposes the director's solution. I don't know if everyone has experienced it. The ignorant self when he was young, struggling for his own interests, may be cruel and ruthless, but he never regrets it, and he is not conscious. Is this wrong? No, it is a glorious nature to be selfish. But when you are old, when you are not as strong as before, when you see a girl who is sunny and confident, even if it is cruel and humiliating. But you will still be attracted to that kind of boldness, that kind of pushing forward without worrying about worldly morality, because the lack of this lack is understandable. When one has been edified by beauty and become more profound, it has a lot to do with others and the world. When she understood, she would condone that humiliation. When a person suddenly faces a challenge by relying on her previous achievements to survive, she will be confused because she has already become elegant, and competition will inevitably make people a little fierce. She yearns to maintain grace, but the reality is cruel. Is it to give up the depraved self that can't keep up with the pace and the heavy responsibility of the times, and give hope to strong young people, or is it self-salvation to bravely keep up with the pace of the times. Some people are confused and don't know whether beauty, principles are important or self-interest is important. Losing myself, I gave up my pursuit. Self-interest is the eternal subject, no one will stay by your side forever, just because of the old friendship, this is irrational and unrealistic. However, is humane elegance really useless? The answer is obviously no. Elegance gives people wisdom. When people get old, they are not as sharp as young people, but they can understand more beautiful and "useless" things. Although Useless but with a deep meaning. If young qi is like a knife, then old qi is more like a qi that can help some eternal careers while developing oneself.
The film is also very realistic, pointing the finger at the contradiction between commercial blockbusters and real art films. The form and theme of commercial blockbusters conform to contemporary aesthetics and requirements, but the characters are too shallow and the theme is not deep enough. Art films can be transformed to focus on more avant-garde themes, but what remains unchanged is the pursuit of artistic connotation.
