In a special period, people become victims of politics, and behind everyone is a family, and political struggles are accompanied by a tragedy in the world where families are destroyed and wives are separated. Seeing true love in the midst of adversity, for the people who were persecuted at that time, the meaning of home became more and more profound. In the film, Lu Yanshi was suppressed and exiled in the political struggle, and he was separated from his wife and daughter for more than 20 years. For more than 20 years, the handsome young professor has become a middle-aged uncle with a face full of vicissitudes, and the only constant is his deep love for his wife and daughter. He desperately just wanted to see his wife and daughter, chose to forbear and forgive his daughter's betrayal, "unscrupulous" in order to return home, accompanied his wife for a long time and waited for "himself" to return, and tried his best to restore the broken family. Like all women in that era, her mother, Feng Wanyu, has been waiting for her husband without any regrets. Even if she forgot what he looked like, she never forgot his name. She was willing to give everything for her husband's life, and suffered pain and sorrow by herself. , waiting for the return of a person day after day with a lifetime of time, never betray.
After regaining his freedom, Lu Yanshi originally thought that he could finally be reunited with his family, but what was waiting for him was his wife keeping him out of the house because of amnesia and forgetting his appearance. He tried all kinds of methods and failed to make his wife recognize him, and finally he chose another way to protect his wife forever. The final scene of the movie is a snowy morning. Lu Yanshi and Feng Wanyu, whose temples were already gray, came to the train station again and held a sign to wait for the return of "Lu Yanshi". The ending of the movie is a little regrettable. But for Lu Yanshi, this may have been a good ending. Family does not have to live under the same roof, but no matter where you are, you know that there is someone who has your safety in mind, looking forward to your happiness, and being the first to come when you are in danger. Come to your side to help you.
In the process of watching the movie, I was in tears all the time. I was moved, shocked, regretful, angry, and my emotions came into my heart. Then I thought of myself. Although that era was a little far away from me, the content of the story could make me feel I feel the same way, thank director Zhang Yimou for making me think more deeply about life with such a story.
"The water-pulling mare is about to give birth to a foal, and if it doesn't come out, we pull it out. When I see the foal struggling to stand on the grass, we feel that spring is really here." This is one of my favorite lines in the movie. I think, no matter what difficulties we encounter, if we persevere, spring will come.
