Movie review:
The film expresses the choices and troubles that everyone faces in life, and explores whether the principles of life have a real moral foundation, and whether they can be applied to the next generation's life, so that the audience can understand the true meaning. Starting from everyday life, the film captures the delicate emotions of family life while setting the contradictory moral dilemma of future and social rules. The film not only has realism, but also incorporates elements of mysticism, interpreting Romania from the aspects of society, religion, and human nature. The compromise that must be made, through a series of moral dilemmas, analyzes human nature incisively and vividly.
"Graduation Exam" (Bacalaureat 2016) is a film that deeply portrays people's hearts and human nature while addressing the shortcomings of the times. Certain details in the film deserve careful scrutiny, otherwise we might arrive at a completely wrong perception. Of course, the "needle" is a joint effect of the story, but if we only consider the reasons for the events in the story, we seem to be able to draw the following conclusion: the hero of the film, the surgeon Romeo, is the root of all problems. He not only He is the maker of his own family crisis, and the indirect maker of his daughter's troubles before graduation, and the key may be that he unknowingly angered a dog owner.
This narrative strategy of Christian Munghi is fundamentally different from the narrative techniques shown by Asghar Farhadi in many works. In Farhadi's films, the characters are always at the crossroads, they are always in a dilemma, the maid of "A Parting" must choose between lying or not lying. For her, if lying It will go against religious teachings, but if you don't lie and you will be criminally responsible for the death of the old man, the weight of these two choices is not like the one that always favors the other absolutely, but almost equal. Either choice will put him at a disadvantage, one is religious/moral condemnation, the other is a lack of self-interest. In this way, Farhadi has also created a unique narrative strategy, by constantly putting characters in a dilemma, portraying their characters through their hesitation before making a choice, and then advancing the story through their choices. Therefore, in Farhadi's films, not only the ending is open, but all the nodes it unfolds are also open for the audience to think about, and the audience can obtain information about their personality, social status, and cultural configuration through any choice of characters. relevant cognition.
