When I watch "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle", it always reminds me of the scene in "Little Shoes":
Agui's helplessness when he lost his bicycle, and his brother's frustration when he lost his sister's shoes in "Little Shoes", Agui looked for the back of the bicycle from morning to night, and the younger sister looked down on other people's feet all day long to find her own shoes.
Agui and Xiaojian are waiting in the alley every day for each other to change their bikes, you and I are day by day. In the little shoe, the elder brother lost his younger sister's shoe and waited in the alley every day for his younger sister to wear his own shoes after school and then change them to go to school.
Bicycles are the sustenance for Ah Gui's new life; the pair of shoes that the elder brother lost to the younger sister is a necessity for them to maintain their lives. They can endure poverty, but when one of the necessities of a poor life disappears or becomes ineffective, it seems that such a thing is magnified countless times to become the pillar of a so-called balanced and complete life, and this thing is also magnified countless times to exacerbate the misfortune of life. and distress.
Just like a broken washbasin is broken for the poor, but as long as it can still play its role, it will not be noticed whether it is broken except for the function of the basin, but when the washbasin is broken with a hole, the hole will not be noticed. It seemed to destroy the whole pot at once, leaving the whole pot in pieces.
"Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" shows a kind of sadness the more I watch it, and the unfortunate ending of the fantasy of beauty and the uncompromising stubbornness of yearning seems to be the reason for living.
"Little Shoes" is getting warmer as you watch it, even if life gets worse, there are always those small opportunities that make you feel that things will get better and better, and those opportunities give a piece of candy to the bitter life.
