The plot of "A Cloud in the Sky" is based on "What Time Are You Over There" and "The Overpass is Missing", which can be summed up in two simple sentences: after the overpass was removed, Li Kangsheng changed his career to become an A-film actor, while Chen Xiangqi After returning to Taiwan from France, the two who met by chance many years ago reunited again by chance, and they lived together after that. Li Kangsheng deliberately concealed his occupation, but he was finally discovered by Chen Xiangqi at the work site...
There are many movies about disillusionment, and frankly speaking, there is nothing special about "The Sky", and it alone cannot impress me. . But after watching "What Time" and "Overpass" together, when the subtitles start, I still stand there, speechless.
"What Time Are You Over There" is one of my favorite Chinese movies. Before, I thought that the description of loneliness and despair in "Dong Xie Xi Du" was profound enough. After watching "What Time", I felt that Wong Kar-Wai still had to move his body back and make way for a seat. After all, Wang had to borrow a few bizarre stories, while Cai only needed to rely on a few daily scenes under the mirror; Wang also asked Hong Qihe to say, "Who stipulates that you can't take your wife to the rivers and lakes?" In the end, Chen Xiangqi was left to sleep alone in a strange park in the middle of the street under the gray sky of Paris. After watching "A Few Times", I only feel that the sadness and helplessness are overwhelming, and there is nowhere to escape if I want to.
To make up for it, the more unbearable the status quo is, and the more dissatisfied people are with their place, the more eager and vain curiosity and hope will be for the far away distance, so Ouyang Feng has always wanted to know the other side of the desert and the other side of the mountain. What is it? Chen Xiangqi was so stubborn that he must buy that watch, while Li Kangsheng secretly set the time back seven hours to synchronize with Paris. They are all people who "live elsewhere", and the "elsewhere" "over the mountain" is the eternal paradise in their hearts.
However, Ouyang Feng's comprehension is higher than that of Li Kangsheng and Chen Xiangqi, so he quickly understood that the desert is also a desert, and the mountain is also a mountain, so he is willing to stay on the side of the mountain. However, Chen Xiangqi still has to search and climb, and finally on the way to find Taoyuan, she ruthlessly destroys Taoyuan. At the end of the movie, when Li Kangsheng jumped up, the last scene was left to Chen Xiangqi, and a tear slowly dripped down from her eyes - discovering some things is often more sad than understanding some things.
If you like "What Time Is There Over You" but haven't watched "A Cloud in the Sky", I advise you not to watch it. Pointless. Pointless.
