The "Silly B" from "Gu Lunmu" made my heart tighten, and then it became heavy.
Take a look at the plot of the movie. Let's start with "beautiful" love:
The story takes place in the 1970s, the era of the "great" Cultural Revolution. The family environment has shaped the timid but heroic Ma Xiaojun, and his love is destined to be as tragic as the times he lived in. Ma Xiaojun inherited his father's "good genes" and gradually developed the ability to unlock locks. In that era, "people never slipped to work", so Ma Xiaojun had the opportunity to display his talents. One day, he only unlocked open locks. One day, he accidentally opened a darkly locked room. The door opened, and the bright yellow sunlight poured in from the window. It was the color of youth, and there was a hint of restlessness in the brightness. Equally bright is the girl's smile, which makes Ma Xiaojun fall in love. Since then, this room has become his second harbor, where he can imagine everything about the girl.
Xu was startled, eh, it should be the effect of hormones. Ma Xiaojun wandered around the house all day waiting for the girl in the photo to appear. In that scene, the background music was soothing and bleak. At dusk, he was alone. On the roof, smoking a cigarette, pacing, just to see the girl's beauty. The hard work paid off. Ma Xiaojun finally "ran into" a girl for the first time. Seeing the back of the girl changing clothes, he was holding his breath, nervous but excited, and sweating all over his face. I have to say that this bridge was designed. Very ingenious, it seems that his long-term waiting has paid off, and at the same time, it has also aroused the interest of the audience, thinking about who this girl is. The second encounter, officially unveiled the girl's mysterious veil. Milan, this name is out of tune with that era, but it sounds good, and there is a sense of mystery in the name. When Milan and Ma Xiaojun met, it was like a mature big sister meeting a childish little boy. I don't know if I designed the characters like this on purpose. Is this also destined that Ma Xiaojun's love is just his own whims. After that, Ma Xiaojun went to Milan whenever he had time. The two spent a happy time. During that time, the sun was always shining and the two had mutual affection. After such a beautiful period, a turning point began to appear. (Even this beauty was imagined by Ma Xiaojun?)
A brilliant orgasm also means a brilliant end.
Little do they know that the relationship between Milan and Liu Yiku is a serious love between men and women. In ancient times, they were talented and talented, but now they are well-matched, so they seem to be even more matched together. As for Ma Xiaojun, it's just wishful thinking. After Ma Xiaojun came back from his grandfather's house, he found that his brother had "taken" his love away. He felt betrayed. So unhappy. Wait a minute, I'm sorry, the director made a joke with us, all these resistance and emotional release are Ma Xiaojun's fantasy, when I woke up, I felt that he was very pitiful, yes, he is such a coward, in After being humiliated by the police, he could only pretend to scold him in front of the mirror to relieve his hatred. How could he dare to do such an outrageous thing to his brother and his beloved girl?
But the development of the story here indicates that the anger and resentment in his heart will eventually erupt. Well, Ma Xiaojun is going to do a big thing. One afternoon, he rushed into Milan's room, facing the girl he once loved, bursting out the love and hatred that had been squeezed in his heart for a long time, maybe more hatred at this time. After that, he was isolated, isolated by love, isolated by friendship, and isolated by himself.
The whole play also comes to an end with the disillusionment of Ma Xiaojun's "love" fantasy. In the swimming pool, after struggling and ups and downs again and again, Ma Xiaojun finally lay "dead" in the middle of the pool.
So youth is gone.
Reunited again, but things are different.
On the other side of the movie, we are told that there are not only hormones in youth, but also groups of "fool friends" and "arrogance and ambition" to conquer the whole world.
Boys may not have girls in their youth, but there must be a bunch of brothers who are bragging and shouting "fuck me" every day (this group of brothers does not distinguish between men and women). Being young is when brothers toss together, ride a big beam car together, smoke and drink together, molest girls (temptation boys), brothers are bullied and pick up sticks and go out without saying a word. When you are young, you just don't restrain yourself, you don't hide it, you just want to release it, you just want to prove how awesome you are. When you will restrain yourself, you will cover up, and you will swallow your voice, which means you have grown up.
So we miss our youth, we miss that unruly age, when we can be stubborn without taking any responsibility, and adults will never respect your ideas. We were "naive" at that time. Adults don't have to worry too much, because when we grow up, we will consciously grind away the edges and corners and become well-behaved.
There are a lot of criticisms in the film, and there are directors' criticism and nostalgia for that era, which is the inherent imprint of their era. Looking at it now, this movie is still a classic, and it still touches a certain nerve in us. The difference between us now and them in the movie is the surrounding environment. What remains unchanged is the stubbornness and frivolity unique to that age.
No matter what "class" you are, whether you live in a military compound or a thatched house, and whether you live in a prosperous city or a remote rural area.
You and I are sixteen, the same.
This is their youth and our youth.
(Some clips can’t be remembered clearly, but I don’t want to play them back. I just write what I feel, which is the most real. I should review this movie again when I have the opportunity in the future, and I will record it again to see if I can analyze it from an artistic level. No longer stick to feelings, hahaha, this should be the improvement of the realm.)
