Recognize your own value little by little, and understand the people and things that are really important step by step

In the movie, there are three people wandering on the road. Zampano looks like a jerk, but the fool has already stated his true state - he is like a dog that can't speak, and he actually needs Jesomina's company desperately in his heart. .

Fools know this because he and Zampano were originally the same kind of people. They all like to drive around in their own cars, thinking they don't need anyone else at all. The Zampano understood by the fool is actually his true appearance.

It's just that the fool used jokes to cover up the panic in his heart, and Zampano suppressed his inner desire by pretending to be hard. They were like two ends of a disguise, an angel on one side and a devil on the other. They appeared in front of Jesomina at the same time. She chooses an answer.

But Jessomina was confused, and it wasn't until the angelic fool illuminated her self-awareness that she officially started to save Zampano.

This is a chain-like transmission process. After the fool died, Jesomina felt real sadness. After Jesomina died, Zampano really understood the pain of loss.

Often times, we don't know what's most important. Zampano has always only valued useful things. He needs people and things that can do things, but the moment he learned to cry, he finally understood the importance of love and companionship.

Constantly searching, recognizing one's own value little by little, and figuring out the people and things that are really important step by step, maybe, this is the meaning of everyone's efforts on the road of life.

This process is often tortured, but no one can escape this. Whether you like it or not, you are already standing in the middle of the road. The next thing to do is to keep walking until you find your true self.

    [C+] It's been a long time since I've seen a work that is so wrong to me. Such a sensational story that can clearly penetrate the heart does not grasp the balance between art and business, but falls into the gap between the two. The actor's performance and the story format are limited by the age, so it is difficult for me to accept it. For me, this story is a complete breakdown, there is no joy and sadness, no perception and experience, only a poor and overwhelmed viewing experience. The impression of the first Fellini was so bad, and I felt a deep sense of frustration.... Also, the Italian's late dubbing was really bad....

    Fellini's early neorealist masterpiece, the Oscar for best foreign language film. 1. So lonely! A tragic story of a rude wandering artist and a foolish female clown; 2. The feelings are delicate and sincere, and the performance of Fellini's wife Masina is very expressive, making people unable to help laugh at the same sorrow; 3. The sad soundtrack of Nino Rota; 4. Elements that run through Fellini's entire works: circus, clowns, beaches, people between heaven and earth, parades, wanderings, philandering men and infatuated women. (9.5/10) [2020.10.31 Revisiting the 4K Restoration at Yihai Theater] The second half of the episode was full of tears, so pure and affectionate. A small stone on the side of the road is also useful, otherwise, even the stars are meaningless. Some people know a lot and dare to take risks, but they always like to joke around. Some people are arrogant and arrogant because of their advantages in a certain area. It is not that they have no brains, but it is just too late to think. Some people love music, love romance, and attach great importance to friendship, but they can't stand their inferiority complex and can't stand exciting changes. "The Great Road" is like a fateful tragedy, no one has made any big mistakes, but the accidental mistakes have caused a fatal miss.
