Goodbye, or goodbye.

From the beginning to the end of the movie, I don't think everyone's acting skills are bad. The overall presentation is much better than the acting skills of many little fresh meat. This movie is still mainly about the story, which makes it easy for people to bring it into it.

Let’s not talk about whether death and serious illness are personal problems or other people’s problems under the cultural conflict. After all, what is said and what is not said will be presented differently with time and individual differences. This is not a question of right or wrong, just It's just a way of handling it.

Aside from this conceptual element, the whole film still presents the North as I know and see, from the overall tone to the living habits (massage, wedding banquet, boxing), it all pulls me back to my memory. Great Northeast.

Speaking of this movie, one of the things that makes me applaud the most is his dubbing, which is so good, it perfectly presents the atmosphere at that time.

Movies are artistic creations, and they are originally the source of life exaggeration. I think that as a child living in a foreign country, it may be useful for us who live in China all the year round to present what we see and feel in our own way. There will be different opinions, but the overall atmosphere of the film is still very clear.

When I saw the beginning, I kept thinking about my grandfather. If I could choose, would it be better to accept a serious illness for a limited time? Or is it an indefinite illness? My choice is definitely the former. There is a deadline. Although it seems to be an ultimatum, I still have expectations. Time will pass, and people's conditions are always good or bad. The doctor must say for the worst. But we usually get through it, and the length of life beyond the deadline makes us feel earned. And some serious illnesses such as coma and hemiplegia, which have no time limit, always make people suffer with anticipation. I hope you can wake up again, but reason tells me it can't happen, although I always say it will be okay.

I really miss you so much, Grandpa. Although we said goodbye, we will meet again.

    As people search for the lost ring in Aiko's dressing room, we discover their childlike state, Bili is completing her degeneration, becoming a cared child. Crazy Rich Asian is just a noisy and hypocritical version, "Don't Tell Her" really touches the unbearable core of Chinese families. However, the standardized audio-visual language of American independent films makes China present its familiar and unfamiliar language. On the one hand, the parallax and misrecognition of the camera produce form and Brecht alienation of content; language, Chinese-style daily dialogue, Northeastern accent, and Awkwafina's non-standard Chinese have all become part of the film's ideograms. It belongs to two language systems at the same time. Parallax not only comes from Changchun and New York, but also from the subtle differences between Japan and China. Moreover and Wang Ziyi present a reverse orientalist psychology - China's imagination of the United States, and the Stereotype of the West in wedding photography. , a cultural production as compound.

    There are so many in the short comment that they can vilify the Chinese, and the stereotypes were taken. Did you all grow up in the magic fairy castle? As a northerner, I don't think there is any piece that makes me feel weird. When talking about other people's stereotype, can you get to know your country first? If this is insulting to China, then does the Joy Luck Club want to jump up and scold his mother?

The Farewell quotes

  • Billi: [frustrated] Are you going to tell Nai Nai?

    Haiyan: I can't, Billi. I won't go against my family.

    Uncle Haibin: Billi, there are things you misunderstand. You guys moved to the West long ago. You think one's life belongs to oneself. But that's the difference between the East and the West. In the East, a person's life is part of a whole. Family. Society.

    Uncle Haibin: You want to tell Nai Nai the truth, because you're afraid to take the responsibility for her. Because it's too big of a burden. If you tell her, then you don't have to feel guilty. We're not telling Nai Nai because it's our duty to carry this emotional burden for her.

  • Jian: You're broke again? Are you always going to live like this?

    Billi: Poor but sexy? I hope so!
