Domestic banned films. I don't know why it got banned. Probably the theme of the whole film is not positive enough, and the people from the Radio, Film and Television Bureau couldn't find a place to castrate, so they just killed it. Later I learned that because the premiere was not in the mainland, it was banned. Really speechless to the Radio and Television Bureau.
Two love stories. Two love stories that are not within the realm of fairy tales. One is "I", the storyteller, a photographer and Meimei's story, and the other is the story of Ma and Peony. All lost and cold. Like most young love stories. Younger, love is just a green impulse, including all your imagination about happiness, it seems that as long as you live with the person you like, you will be happy, just like when peony likes a motor; bigger, love It was already getting deeper and deeper in my heart, and the waves blown by the small wind and waves could no longer evoke that feeling, just like Peony working in a supermarket during the middle of the movie.
If one day I'm gone, will you come to me like a motor?
Yes.
Will you keep looking?
Yes.
Will you always find death?
Yes.
you are lying.
...
things like this only happen in love stories.
When Meimei asked about "I", she already knew that the stories Ma told were true. Before that, I thought this story was just to pursue myself. When she knew it was true, the incident made a deep impression on her. It even affected his own view of love. She left, leaving a note: Come to me.
And "I" doesn't go to Meimei, because he knows that everything will not last forever. He chose to wait for the next love.
My favorite time was 41 minutes, when Ma returned to Shanghai to look for Peony, and inquired about old B and his female accomplices while getting a haircut in the former barber shop. Knowing that the two people were dead, the background voice said that the story seems to be unable to continue at this point. At this time, the picture gradually darkened, as if the movie was about to end. Then the background voice said, maybe, Ma can carry on this story by himself. The picture then returns to normal and the movie continues.
This section feels very subtle. As a behind-the-scenes narrator, the background sound inadvertently reflects the influence on the story at this moment: if he can't continue, the movie may end. And such a possibility calls into question whether the story actually happened or just a fabrication of the narrator. But the picture immediately returned to normal, that is to say, the story went down by itself, adding to the sense of existence of the story. In this way, the film seems to stand on the dividing line between fantasy and reality, which may be true or false. If you think this story is romantic, you can believe it exists. If you can't accept such a cold love, you can also get close to the background sound and return the whole story to the narrator, denying its truth.
