The storyline is no longer detailed.
Jiang Wen's debut novel. It made me fall in love with Xia Yu, and I admired Jiang Wen, a director with jumping thoughts, rich ideas, and a special case. like this man. And like the return of youthful debauchery that he brought me. His films leave me more room for imagination and thinking. Every gap in the storyline, between every interrupted film segment, and every detail of each segment contains a very broad thinking space.
A few days ago, I went to the bookstore to read Su Mu's "Sunshine Boy". He analyzes "Sunny Days" quite thoroughly. The storyline of the entire film is narrated and analyzed from the moment of grandpa Mao's camera movement at the very beginning. I have always been obsessed with that era and the compound life of that era. Su Mu said in the book that many people who have experienced the Cultural Revolution often say this: "The Sunshine Day, what!" And, at the end, they would add this sentence: "I am the 'child of the courtyard'! "That look is like a man who has experienced countless loves talking about a woman with a virgin. Or, a woman who has had multiple babies talks to a teenage girl about giving birth. In fact, Jiang Wen and Wang Shuo just wanted to tell a story about youth, and its background is the Cultural Revolution—that’s all.
A group of passionate teenagers coincides with the era when students achieved unprecedented liberation. How can we not be dissolute, how can we not be arrogant, how can we not clamor, how can we not love passionately, how can we not hate resolutely? !
"Sunshine" actually tells an incomplete memory. Some clips are so clearly visible, and some clips are so blurry that we have no way of knowing whether it was our childhood dream or the real life of that year.
For Ma Xiaojun, Milan may always be the person in the painting who is eager and out of reach. Teenager - The fantasies about love are obscure and slightly longing. Since I met the person in the painting by chance, I have never forgotten it. The monologue of the film says: The bigger the field of vision, the bigger the image, the richer the imagination, the more hints in her expression.
I don't know if you have had such an experience. Anyway, that's how I feel. In youth, the beautiful pictures will always come to mind after seeing them once. It is him when you open your eyes and close your eyes, and he has become your world since then.
The monologue of "Sunshine" also said: It will always be like summer, with a smell of burnt grass. Some people in the comments say it's a hormonal smell. Come to think of it, this statement is actually quite plausible. Teenager - body - girl - growth - hormones. The hormones finally smelled under the glare of the sun, so there was a smell of burnt grass. Youth is coloured - the colour of the sun. Youth comes with a smell—the smell of hormones. Youth - we all have the same troubles as Ma Xiaojun. The huge energy in the body has nowhere to vent, waiting for an opportunity to explode.
On the rainy night, Ma Xiaojun shouted the name of Milan with anger, confusion and anxiety. When Milan asked him: Ma Xiaojun, what happened to you? He finally said the words that had been accumulated in his heart: "I like you!" When she asked again, Ma Xiaojun lowered his voice and said, "Oh, my car fell into a ditch." Anyone who saw this couldn't help but be amused. . However, how many times can we have the courage to speak the truth, once is enough. Many people say that embracing in the rain is the warmest place in the film. I really don't think so, I really feel that hugging Ma Xiaojun's pain instead. Life has continued since then, as if nothing had happened. Therefore, it made Ma Xiaojun more depressed, which triggered all kinds of nameless anger and impulses of Ma Xiaojun after that.
In the end, Ma Xiaojun was isolated by his friends. On the high platform of the swimming pool, he jumped awkwardly and dived to the bottom. He struggled to climb the upper pool, and the white eyes, indifference and abandonment of his playmates rushed to him together. He was completely isolated. I found that Jiang Wen seems to love water. There are also water-related pictures in "The Sun Also Rises". In my opinion, water symbolizes the end of that youth. As soon as the hot summer is over, youth disappears, and the water also washes away those crazy dreams and the smell of burnt grass.
After that. Youth is gone, young playmates go their separate ways, and the people in the painting disappear into the passing time. The teenagers have gone through the misses and mistakes of those youth. The picture of the movie changed from color to black and white, and the teenagers were all adults, and they rode on Chang'an Street in white Cadillac cars. I saw my childhood friend - the fool "Gu Lunmu". Ma Xiaojun shouted to "Gu Lunmu". "Gu Lunmu" scolded them neatly: "Silly B!"
Youth has faded.
Today the sun is still shining, but the teenagers are no longer there.
