The absurd in my eyes

I have been admiring the films I watched in today's film appreciation class for a long time, and I have never been determined to take the time to watch them.
The black-and-white film begins with absurd trumpet music, and I thought of "Donkey Gets Water" for a while. The soundtrack also seems to have this kind of joyful and absurd loess music. I told my friend next to me about this feeling, and he said it might be a tribute to this movie. Who knows? It's just that this sense of absurdity is indeed traced in both films, let me feel familiar.
Before the broadcast, the teacher told us that this is the number one Chinese film in his mind.
"Who?"
"Me."
Even if it was the first time I saw this movie, this classic scene gave me a strange sense of sight. Jiang Wen wanted to leave the audience with this kind of shock and doubt. The high-spirited sex was disturbed by an uninvited guest, and the face and name of the uninvited guest were not told to me, and he even pointed a gun at me, and threw me such a lot of trouble for no reason. Really pissed off. Whether that "I" is the Chinese representing "justice" is not so important. I don't know who it is or why I suddenly received this life-and-death mission. All the front lines are foggy and black holes. , but the protagonist had to take over the mess. This only adds to the absurdity.
Speaking of this scene, I don't want to dismiss contemporary college students. Have you really seen very few Chinese movies on a larger scale? Dew point 0.5s also exclaimed in the audience? ? ?
This movie is kind of like a tragicomedy in a way, pure tragedy in the guise of comedy . The rough lines and scenes, translation stalks and interrogation stalks made the audience burst into laughter, holding their cheeks. Is it really that funny? ? ? ? Indifferent face.
But when it comes to non-commercial films, I always have an inexplicable awe in my heart and want to take it seriously, let alone a good film. Don't laugh out of vulgarity, don't casually fall in love with a character in the play. Because it's always felt that serious movie characters are detached from the vulgar tastes that make people appreciate their appearance, and that every face grows on the character. Although Captain Shuzuka is really kind of handsome.
Every time the trumpet team comes, the Chinese feel ecstatic and grateful for the six carts of food that the Japanese "gift" that originally belonged to the Chinese. The Chinese and the Japanese pretend to reconcile at a party, and even if the country falls, they can live under the hands of the Japanese. A Chinese who is worried about his own life, a Chinese who is a "emperor", a Chinese who can't hold a huge love in his heart. Every time the classmates laughed, I felt a sense of absurdity in my body.
It's obviously so unreasonable, God kills everything! ! ! ! Why does everyone accept it so easily and humiliatingly! ! ! Smile! ! ! Be silent! ! ! acquiesce! ! Agree! ! !
Terrible times, that's all.
When I saw the end, every time an absurd point appeared, my friend would turn his head to look at me with a "so ridiculous that I have nothing to say" expression.
The most absurd thing is that the Chinese themselves become dogs, and then the dog bites the dog and the dog fucks the dog. The end of the world is nothing compared to another world war.
Someone asked me what I thought of Kosaburo Hanaya's attack on Ma Dashan in the end. I think it's a kind of retribution. The light wind blew through the general, the hand raised the knife and fell, rolled nine circles, blinked three times, thank you, let me ascend to the fairyland without feeling pain in the neck.
But my heart hurts too much. The pain was so painful that I could not speak, and I could only make a donkey bark.

"The Devil Is Coming" has won so many awards internationally.
I would like to know what foreigners think of this sharp and sensitive historical pain? In terms of artistry alone, the cowardice of human nature and the goodwill of black people are of course excellent, but if they are placed on specific events, wouldn't it involve today's state relations? Foreigners give awards, does it mean recognition?
I really want to know if the Japanese will be angry with this film, and see such absurd ending, will there be an admission that touches the heart but will never admit it.
When leaving the venue, I heard a girl say, "But there is something wrong with such values!"
I don't think so, this is a grand absurdity.
