Well, I think the ending is too happy, but I can live with it.
In fact, this is not a dark story. Look at the first chapter of the stills, and think of a father who is a doctor, with his arms outstretched on the shoulders of his two sons, sitting on a wooden chair, surrounded by almost endless half-dry In the autumn meadows, with the sea or endless lake in front, the dying sun behind, and the silent wind blowing from all sides, you can imagine how beautiful it is.
But it's not all, there is also the brokenness of the deserted life in northern Europe, and the yellow sand and people on the battlefield in Sudan. Life and death are on both sides. That's how the father ran away. I have seen life and death on the battlefield a lot, and I can try my best to be tolerant of small fights at home. The only thing is to constantly repent to my estranged wife. When I make a phone call, "I feel so bored without you", and the words are simple and affectionate, It is very sad.
There are no more than two kinds of logic for those who make small troubles, and children. It is nothing more than repaying grievances with virtue and repaying grievances with grievances. C and I are really like two extremes of human beings. Jairus will be revengeful, rejoice in enmity and endure humiliation and bear the burden of humiliation, and live in stealth.
C's father told him that the war came from grievances, that is, I's mother told him to tell the truth. Shortly after the refreshing scene, C's revenge was burning, and I also tasted the sweetness. The picture cuts from northern Europe to Sudan, blue to yellow, and suddenly I see the faces of suffering, and I feel that those people who have been devastated by war are also retributing their grievances, and they have finally reached this point?
That's where the movie excels. Nordic directors prefer cool colors. When they talk about things, the music is fresh and refined. Even if they walk fast, they use the tone of the piano. In a less stable shot, it is better to paint, and the rhythm must be dragged down. Comedies such as "A Man Named Ove Decided to Die", but also use blue to cool down, enjoy the pain, not to mention "Hunting", the people who watch it are trembling and chilling. It's not blindly cold to you here. The scene where the father is intervening intermittently to rule people on the front line is mainly warm, and the content is closely related to the main line-except for the inspiration above, which is about hatred and revenge with hooligans. , restraint and tolerance, confirmed by the boss of the gang; when it comes to letting go of life and death, there is a saying that he will not give up treatment. Contradictions in real life are brought to the surface under the magnification of war, and there are inadvertent connections everywhere. While you are thinking about how to solve them, you are giving hints at the same time. In my eyes, the level of meaning has risen sharply, the amount of thinking has also increased, and the pace has become much faster. When you think about it, it is natural to cater to Hollywood tastes.
When it comes to scolding the boss of the gang, many people in the same seat say that it is the other side of his father, but I can only see his practice of teaching by words and deeds. For his father, he does not take resentment or virtue, but repays his resentment directly, as a doctor, cures diseases and saves people. Occupation and private matters are irrelevant, and there is responsibility. On that day, the day before the final explosion, the only time the children were chasing after the medical car was not shown. The poor people asked the doctor why for the first time. Because he was too tired that night, he did not persuade me not to take revenge. He was shaken and contradicted himself, and he complained directly. What happened? The movie doesn't judge, and it doesn't give the hooligan whose car was blown up one more shot, but complaining for resentment, sorry for the brave, kind I, won't be the answer either.
Speaking of which, C's logic, retribution is because the first time was not cruel enough, I began to listen to it, but it is probably the same for a young man with strong blood and a ranger who grabs the ground with his head. But he is a child soaked in the pain of losing his mother. When he finds that his logic seems to be wrong, his father seems to be right, and he can only choose the most decisive avoidance. When I's father told him where the experience of death came from, tears welled up in his eyes. Those motives for revenge may be relieved and dispelled, I can't tell. Perhaps this is the meaning of the chanting of heaven in the opening chapter of C.
It's really a surprising movie. It involves a lot of angles but has enough commonalities. Two fathers, one mother, and two children have very full images. No embarrassment here.
Finally, a few words of thanks. The week-long so-called Nordic Film Festival is to find a small classroom and watch it together. It was a great honor to catch up with the last one and have a photo together. However, after watching it, there will be awkward chat activities in the same seat. The seniors talk eloquently, anthropology, sociology, and legal philosophy are all involved, from the classical period, down to this. , On the one hand, I feel that it is rather boring to turn the film review into a false case analysis. He also said a few words, the content is superficial, which has been discussed above. It's just that the point seems to be very deviated, and it is not thorough, which makes the teachers here have many discrepancies. Fortunately, the teacher is very cute, mixed in Chinese and English, and I am overjoyed. It seems that the next festival will have something to do.
