This story is to describe the purest emotion left behind after a deformed era.
Zhang Yimou told the media in an interview that he just wanted to shoot the twenty pages of the original book. Therefore, in "Lu Yanshi" about Lu Yanshi's flourishing, the acquaintance and acquaintance between the two, and the sadness of the Northwest, they were all cut out or told to the audience from the side. Such a "minus" makes many people incomprehensible, but if you observe carefully, the first few scenes of the movie, the turning doorknob, Gong Li's complicated facial expressions, or the desperate "Run fast" from the train station ", silently told us the perseverance and deepness of the relationship between the two of us.
I don't remember where I saw a sentence, "warmth is more touching than sensationalism". And this is precisely a warm film. Although it is calm and indifferent, it cannot hide the dramatic tension of the turbulent and complex emotions under the calm. And what made me stunned the most was the sound of Master Fang, the loud laughter in the movie theater, and I only had tears in my eyes. On the surface, it is fun, but it is all helpless to uncover it.
Perhaps this film does not have the awesome photography that Zhang Yimou is used to, and the gorgeous colors like symbols. The entire play, except for the Lu family, does not last more than five minutes. But does this 100-minute movie really only tell a five-minute story? Those who are willing to think like this may be a little impetuous when watching a movie.
Our fault lies in an imperfect ending, yet nothing is more moving than embracing the love of a whole life in a broken age.
Thank you for those regrets that have passed through our lives.
Thank you also for the calm feelings hidden behind regrets.
