"Yan Nan Fei": Hope is the source of love

Liu Qiang loves movies

There are five Soviet films that I like very much, namely "Ivan's Childhood", "Song of the Soldier", "The Dawns Here Are Quiet", "The Story of the Office" and "Flying Wild Goose". From the perspective of film history, the biggest contribution of "Flying Wild Goose" is in photography, of course, including lighting, composition, etc. It can be said that as early as 1957, when the film was born, Soviet film artists had already compared the four The three frames are taken to the extreme, and some of the techniques are still very bold. If you like photography, including static photography, "Flying Wild Goose" is definitely not to be missed. Although the main purpose of my post-view is to try not to mention the major, but when I encounter this kind of professional movie, I still need to stop it to show my respect.

If I remember correctly, today is the fifth time to watch "Flying Wild Goose", and I feel more and more that its storytelling technique is no less than that of photography. The contrast between the sad and happy emotions of the primary and secondary scenes is simply superb. The story serves the characters, and with a deeper understanding of the story, a deeper understanding of what happened to the protagonist Veronica.

Needless to say, I used to watch "Southern Wild Goose", and I was very upset that Veronica was unable to withstand the loneliness, betrayed Boris who went to war, and married Mark, who had a very bad character, and felt that she suffered later. The pain is "deserved" and it's a pity for Boris to fall in love with such a woman. Can think so, today's analysis, roughly because of two reasons. The former reason is relatively simple. The creator of the film made the death of Boris so sentimental. I have never seen another film that can make death so emotionally impactful. I believe that no matter who watches it You will be deeply shocked by the scene before Boris's death. You will have great recognition and pity for this character, and you will hate all the people and things that "smear" him.

I will focus on the latter reason, because I don't have a good taste for the dark background of the scene where Veronica bends over to Mark, and it's just a simple environment design. The so-called "darkness", first of all, is the real darkness. The air raid happened in the night, the room is dark, the outside is dark, and the shadow is sprinkled on people, but it is still dark; secondly, the "darkness" of the event, the fascist air raid and Mark's almost violent courtship behavior, Both have evil undertones; the last is the psychological "darkness", Veronica is at the most vulnerable because her parents were just killed in the previous air raid, and she couldn't wait for her boyfriend Boris's letter. , When there was no light, and Mark's heart was originally dark, he evaded military service, seduced his younger brothers and sisters, took advantage of people's dangers, was shameless, and took the bow in this night tyrant, what kind of person does he really do! Feeling this triple "darkness", you can understand Veronica's situation and choices - at this moment, the fire of hope for a happy life with Boris in her heart is extinguished, and the love that she should have been guarding carefully will also wither. It dried up, which gave Mark the opportunity. Later stories also proved the relationship between hope and love. When Veronica's hope that Boris was still alive was rekindled, her love for Boris was also reborn.

In the final analysis, "Yan Nan Fei" is not a romantic film in the standard sense. Its purpose is still to fight against war. It is war. This so-called force majeure makes people's hope for a better life sometimes silent, sometimes vague, or even completely. Disappeared, resulting in how many men and women who should have been happy and complete love turned to ashes in a hopeless life. For ordinary people, war has really come, and its change of fate is irresistible, but in the age of peace, how two people take care of their love and make it flourish as much as possible, the inspiration brought to us by "Flying Wild Goose" will never fail. Not out of date-

Try to give each other hope.

The Cranes Are Flying quotes

  • Stepan: Dear mother, father, sisters and brothers! The happiness of our reunion is immeasurable. The heart of every Soviet citizen is filled with joy. Joy sings in our hearts. It is victory that has brought us this joy. We have all waited for this moment. But we shall not forget those left behind on the battlefield. Time will pass. Towns and villages will be rebuilt. Our wounds will heal. But our fierce hatred of war will never diminish. We share the grief of those who cannot meet their loved ones today, and we will do everything to insure that sweethearts are never again parted by war, that mothers need never again fear for their children's lives, that fathers need never again choke back hidden tears. We have won, and we shall live not to destroy, but to build a new life!
