The scene at the back of the truck felt a little awkward. The Wenchuan earthquake made me feel very uncomfortable. I recalled the scenes of the sister and brother meeting during the Sichuan earthquake. . Several times, I almost cried and held back. The

On the 30th anniversary of the Tangshan earthquake in 2006, I went to Tangshan to visit and photograph the living conditions of many people who lived after the earthquake, including some earthquake sites in this life and the disabled rehabilitation village after the address. I'm here to say sorry to them. I shouldn't have disturbed their peaceful life. This is my most intuitive feeling after watching this film. The

2008 Wenchuan Earthquake I saw in person did not make me cry. Some fragments of the memoir film have made me unable to calm down. . .

    First of all, I don't think Feng Tao is using the earthquake to make money. There are always special times when he needs to use artistic means to remember that day for those who have never experienced it. On the contrary, I think this kind of subject matter and content is still worth seeing, not just earthquakes, but more of the blood and water affection. Secondly, the acting skills of the actors are remarkable, they are very devoted and passionate, and in some parts of the scene, I even feel so sad that I almost cried. ~

    People are helpless in the face of disaster. This film successfully moved me, especially when the mother and child were separated.

End of discussion. I'm not moving anywhere.
