Goodbye, Mom! See you again, Lenin!

This is the feeling of watching a movie. The first decade of the 21st century has passed, and now it is an old movie to watch, goodbye Lenin.
Can you imagine that on the day Taiwan returned to the reunification of the two sides of the strait, whether from Taiwan or the mainland, countless people rushed across the strait to the other side. The little nostalgia left behind by the scouring of the years is completely shattered. Will the last straw in life be lost because the last obsession in my heart is broken? People are like this, always imagining a lot of fetters in their hearts in order to live a better life, but many times it backfires and misleads Qingqing's life. When you don't know anything, you are still living under your parents' wings, and you are content with the world in front of you, and the people in front of you. Since I was far away from home, I have learned to read people and the world. After the pain, I have gained more indifference and learned to be moved. Goodbye Lenin, what I see is not only the touching of human family.
Since I was a
child, the materialistic view of history of horseism told me that history is created by the people, and the people create history and change history. As a materialist, I have no doubts about this, but at the same time, as one of many "simple" materialists, I can't help but tell the truth that I had no emotional experience at all based on my insignificant experience when I was young. In books, on the screen, and in life, I see more of the insignificance and helplessness of personal destiny in the changing times. Such historical facts as "the reunification of the two Germanys", which are only a few pages in textbooks, have changed the fate of too many people. Some people capsized in huge waves, and some people reached new heights in huge waves. Liu Shaoqi became a scab at one time, and Wang Hongwen became a member of the Standing Committee at one time. In China, which has experienced countless movements, the list goes on and on. Without the pain of my fathers and grandparents, I am not qualified to use morality to question who is right and who is right. After all, what Minghui and Wu Zetian left behind is just a wordless monument. I'm just a simple person who just wants to keep clear eyes in the world.

How important is faith to a person? It's so important that without it you're going to be broken -- broken without a fight. I, who was born after the reform and grew up under the opening up, have doubted more than once, whether there is a Wang Cheng-style character who "fired at me for victory", and wondered what motives Jiang Jie embroidered the red flag in "Red Rock". I am not a revolutionary idealist, nor am I a pure utilitarian. Although I often doubt whether my doubts are justified, I have rarely seen such a pure psychodynamicist in my life.
This country, the country my mother said goodbye to, she believed in all her life and died;
this country, we let it survive until the last moment of my mother's death;
this country, never existed in reality ;
this country Country, I can only think of it when I think of my mother.
There are indeed such people in life, but for some well-known reasons that we inevitably encounter in this country, I have "subjectively" made their image "high and complete". Everyone has their own ideals to stick to their own, but in my opinion, it is dynamic and static, short-term and long-term. Values, or what is called "ideology", are just a manifestation of their long-term internalization. A lie told a thousand times is the truth, and a pursuit or ideal will have a powerful force when it is continuously strengthened. It was when Goebbels understood this path that he became Hitler's mind-worshipper. What a person has worked for his whole life is proved to be nothing at the last moment. This kind of pain is not because of values ​​or ideology, but the most instinctive reaction of the natural state of mind of human beings, just like Nietzsche's philosophy of superman. I sympathize with the mother who lives in the lie of her son, but if I were this mother, I would be very happy, because until I die, I still have a complete spiritual belief. Let go of "obsessions", but I'm not Hui Neng, lay people have to rely on "obsessions" to live.
Affection
All hearts are bound by the thread of love, whether it is Roman Caesar or Che Guevara. Think about it carefully, no matter how history is written, there is only true love in the world, and only its story will not fade with time. There are many kinds of love, weaving a lie for the mother that cannot be fulfilled by oneself only so that the loved ones can be kept from being hurt by reality in the lie, this is love; facing the strangeness and hesitation of the new world together to face the predicament, this is love; even lying down Paying attention to the country and life on the sickbed is also love. Language is always far-fetched, but it can be perceived in every nuance. Mothers and sons, fathers and sons, relatives, lovers, neighbors, colleagues, etc., times in turmoil, thoughts in shackles, they make life meaningful for you and me, and at the same time make us strong. Thanks to my mom, and of course my dad, and my friends who have brought joy and happiness to my life. I will make me happy for you too.
The world is so chaotic, who can pretend to be pure. I don't know who these words are addressed to, me? you? stranger? acquaintance? But at least for me, "Goodbye, Lenin" touched me.

In fact, as far as movies are concerned, people living in the Celestial Dynasty must have more feelings. The background of the times, social things, and even many lines, they are either in our lives, or just not far from us. The story in the film takes place in the 40th year of the Democratic Republic of Germany, and the film outside the film is released in the 55th year of the Chinese Empire. The sensitive topics of a harmonious society will not be repeated here. As long as they are not the subjects of the Celestial Dynasty who do not eat human fireworks, they will feel more or less the same. Celestial politics, after all, can't have a direction problem, so let's not talk about it so as not to get into trouble*.
