This movie is not only so realistic, but also unlike other movies like "Xiao Wu", I feel very uncomfortable after watching it. The latter is at least aesthetically pleasing. (If I have to say, the depiction of Beijing's hutongs seems to be very real, but I have not been to Beijing and have no right to speak.) The music and the details of the story, but the film has nothing to do with the theme. Gao Yuanyuan and Zhou Xun of , have no sense of beauty.
When I saw Guo Liangui being robbed of a car, I cried heartbreakingly. I felt that the movie was made like this: like seeing a recent video of youth violence on the Internet, of course I agree to face the reality, but it doesn't feel like a movie. .
From the beginning, I thought that the story of the movie would be a "Sicilian Beauty and Legend" story, but I didn't expect Zhou Xun to be more futile than Malena and in fact it was almost insignificant in the movie, and Gao Yuanyuan was just beautiful... After all, it wasn't A youth love drama, even a little anti-youth love. Maybe the director wants to tell me: Look, the underlying reality is that the goddess doesn't even have the idea of knowing you and saying a word to you, and girls really like hooligans and there will be no stories between you!
In fact, it is true that most young people are more likely to experience stories like "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" in their lives, and "Those Years", "To Youth" and "You at the Same Table" are not our boyhood. How can so many Chinese students who have been in the cruel study of chasing the development of the times since childhood have been in love, at least not a love in the form of a youth movie.
Falling in love is only a luxury for a small number of students who have shown a middle-class atmosphere in their school days (or students who are not ready to go to school and hope to break into the society). Most students coveted the product.
At least that was the case in my middle school days. It would be better if Xiao Jian was a small town citizen. If it is like Guo Liangui, if it is a rural person who goes out to work when he is a teenager, most of the love is really just a luxury.
Back to the bicycle, what exactly does Director Xiaoshuai want to say? Could it be that the film is meant to tell us that the survival tool that the underclass desperately protects is just a plaything for the petty bourgeoisie to pick up girls and satisfy their vanity? And in the end they were all destroyed.
In short, I have seen too many so-called realistic themes, but only this "Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" can make me feel so uncomfortable.
