In a good movie, the characters are three-dimensional and complex. In this movie, soldiers can be said to be soldiers all the time, and the motives of all characters basically have no background. It seems that the behavior of everyone involved in the "state" is extremely respectable. Combined with some recent popular events in our country, this makes me smell the taste of Hegel's "state philosophy" in those days. On the issue of the relationship between the state, Marx strongly criticized Hegel and criticized the concept of "state" for kidnapping "civil society". Although "civil society" is a false proposition in China, it cannot be said that "people" constitute civil society. It is not important. What we can learn from Marx's criticism is that it is not wrong to love the country from the perspective of "country". However, without many specific individuals, without families, the country does not exist.
You must know that before becoming soldiers, they are first of all people, the sons of their parents, their husbands, and their fathers. They should have their confusion, their faults, and their cleverness. In the movie, these reflect "human nature" Almost all things have been eliminated, and the film can even be said to have never jumped out of the fixed and rigid category of "military operations" from beginning to end. "Operation Mekong" is precisely the addition of Fang Xinwu's personal grievances, which led to the confrontation between tasks and personal grievances , Tension came out immediately, and the role of Fang Xinwu also became three-dimensional.
In the same way, some people compare this movie with "Wolf Warrior 2", mocking the latter's excessive personal heroism as naive, but in my opinion, this is precisely the advantage of Warrior Warrior, at least the character Leng Feng is more three-dimensional. Yes, he is ruffian, does not obey the command very much, and also makes jokes. Instead, this constitutes a core set of dramatic tension with the seriousness of the army's obedience to orders and commands. Drama tension can be said to be the most important basis for the film's argument. If you use war scenes from start to finish, broken limbs and broken arms, and inexplicable patriotic feelings to create a movie, then you just ignore the "dream-making" function of the movie. Of course, if you aim to cultivate little pinks, this movie must be an unprecedented success. .
The movie "Dream Making" does seem naive on the surface, but it also confirms the fact that the movie itself cannot be completely equal to reality, and should even reject reality. Of course, the story of the movie must come from reality. Therefore, it is very important to grasp the degree. It should not be too divorced from reality, and it should not be too realistic. The reason why the "personal hero" is popular is actually very simple, that is, this person is a "person" first and then a "hero". This person has his shortcomings and worries. Sometimes he may not want to act as a chivalrous person. , sometimes doing wrong things, sometimes disobeying the command, these things are exactly what a hero must experience in the process of growing up. It is impossible for a person to come up and take it for granted. The process of becoming a hero is often more difficult than pure The heroic deeds resonate more with the audience. In a word, it is impossible for a hero to have no "emotions", a hero without emotions, a person who does good deeds 24 hours a day, a person who records good people and deeds in a diary, even if he is real, but It sounds fake to say it, doesn't it?
The reason why "individual heroes" are enduring, without its naive side, actually implies that everyone has an "idealistic" side. This "idealism" is beyond the limitations of the times. Although it is very unrealistic, it is It's ideal, but you can't say it doesn't exist. I remember a writer once said that only unrealistic ideals have real value. This sentence does not emphasize that ideals must be realized, but to explain that in the process of practice "Unrealistic ideals" are very necessary. Those very practical things are often not ideals, but just goals with utilitarian purposes, right? Therefore, the "ideal" itself is unrealistic and unrealizable, but it is necessary. Movies are the carrier of the "unrealistic ideal" in this era. It can be said that it is with the ideal that life is realistic.
